It's true, of course, that if (and it usually does) the text runs off
the bottom of the page in the scrivenings view, you can't see it. But
Scrivener allows you to open other notes in "quick reference panels,"
and as many of these as you want (or can practically keep on your
screen), so you can be referring to other notes as you write. Not 100%
sure the Windows version has this feature yet.

I couldn't find it in the Windows version, but I just realised that it's possible to right-click on any item and select "Open in Other Editor," which then splits the window and displays the note next to your currently edited or viewed note. So at least you can view two notes at the same time.
