Math Assistant in OneNote M365 no longer calculates results
I’m a mathematics professor in higher education, and I’ve relied heavily on OneNote for Windows 10 — especially its Math Assistant feature — to support my teaching. While we teach at the university level, the mathematics involved is foundational: from basic first-degree equations to partial derivatives of multivariable functions, limits, definite and indefinite integrals, 2D graphing, and inequality plots. This isn’t advanced research mathematics — it’s core material for management and accounting students. In the previous version of OneNote, I could write an equation, click “Math,” and immediately get the final result. That was extremely helpful for classroom demonstrations and student self-checking. In the current version (OneNote M365), the “Math” button still appears, and it does solve simple equations — but it fails to graph more complex functions and is significantly slower than the previous version. Is Microsoft working to restore the ability to calculate final results and draw 2D graphs reliably, as the previous version did? This feature is essential for teaching and productivity. I appreciate any clarification. Best regards, José Maria E. G.

OneNote web clipper needs a real feedback option
Long ago, the OneNote web clipper had a feedback button and it's still referenced in some support suggestions like https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5339455/onenote-web-clipper-has-stopped-working-again If you are signed in with a Microsoft account rather than an org account (which some of our users do because both Edge and OneNote let you use both org and Microsoft accounts together quite happily and because the OneNote web clipper is used on personal devices as well, not just managed devices where we can be sure the org account is available), there is no feedback button, so you can't tell the Microsoft team that a web page didn't clip properly. Like clipping https://deno.com/blog/updates-from-tc39 in article mode loses a lot of important text from the first list and drops all the headings just because they have anchors on, which strips out important structural information because now you don't have headings between the sections. The web clipper is a key tool for OneNote in orgs but doesn't have a good feedback channel for bringing up web pages where the clipping model needs to be updated. Even longer ago when the clipper was new, every page clipped included a feedback option; it would be nice if that came back as an option you could turn on from either the clipper or the OneNote application so we could submit information more easily.Password protected Word file embedded in OneNote asks for password three times
I have a password-protected Word document that I have attached in a OneNote page. I've noticed recently that when I try to open the Word document, it prompts for the password three times before it opens the file. This is with the desktop version of OneNote and Word, currently at Version 2411. The issue does not exist if I roll Office back to version 2404 (16.0.17531.20120), and I've been able to replicate the issue on multiple computers so it looks like a problem that was introduced in a recent Office update. Anyone else experiencing similar?
Unable to Retrieve Attachments or Images from SharePoint List Using Web API
We have been developing a banner app for SharePoint but encountered an issue where we are unable to access images or attachments from the list created using the Web API. The endpoint we used is: https://oursharepoint.com/sites/Test/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Banner')/items While we can successfully access other list columns, we are unable to retrieve attachments or images through this method. Interestingly, we were able to access them on our test SharePoint site.
displayDialogAsync shows empty dialog box
Hi, I am using my Outlook add-in to display a dialog box. However, if I use displayInIframe:true then the contents of the dialog box won't load. After a few seconds, it will display the attached error in the dialog box and I'll see an error in the console that says "[Report Only] This document requires 'TrustedScript' assignment." I have tried to see if there's any error by using a callback, but that always says that it succeeded. The URL is on the same domain as the code hosted by the add-in. I am getting this issue in OWA on Chrome and Firefox as well as PWA. In classic Outlook the content doesn't load either, but I also don't see that error in the console. Office.context.ui.displayDialogAsync(url, {height: 30, width: 20, promptBeforeOpen: false, displayInIframe: true}, function (result) { console.log('Callback result:'); console.log(result); } );

We are using SharePoint Server 2019 along with Office Online Server (On-premise). Multiple users work on the same worksheet simultaneously. However, when one user applies a filter on sheet1, it affects all the users instead of being user- specific. Is there any workaround to make the filter apply only for individual users?
