How to use Sticky Notes

Hello,

I can create a Sticky Note. I would like it to sit on the desktop. Right now it seems to be attached to the open Chrome screen. How do I get it to sit on the Desktop? Thanks.

MacBook, macOS 10.13

Use quicknotes in full screen another app Hey! So I really like the new quick notes but I was wondering can I use them on full-screen Safari and other apps? I mean when I open Safari in a window I can use quick notes the quick note window comes up however when I am in full screen in Safari and I trigger the quick note window it doesn't come up until I leave full screen. Do you know if I can use the quick notes while in full screen? That would be really handy.

How do you stop notes from popping up in new windows? In the Notes app, every time I click on a note in the sidebar, it opens in the main window, but a new popup window appears with that same note and formatting controls only. It's very annoying and has no reason to exist. Any way to stop this from happening?
