First of all, an anchored note has both a description and longer rich text. The description is displayed normally in the note table, it is set in the note's window in the text field at the top. There is supposed to be a little triangle on the left of the description to reveal the longer rich text. However for existing notes that seems to have disappeared in the last release. I'l bring it back in the next release. > Also, the icon for the note will remain centered top-to-bottom along > the right edge of the note, if I extend the note's lower boundary.

I personally think it looks better centered, also leveled with the page number next to it.
