Notes

The constraint note is drawn slightly differently to a regular note, and has { and } automatically added to visually indicate the constraint form
As an alternative to the procedure above, you can drag the Quick Linker arrow on an existing Note or Constraint, and drag it to the required connector; a Notelink is automatically created to attach the Note or Constraint to the connector
