Charlotte18241 can you help me, my OneNote does not have Loop Components under Insert Tab. Does this option is automatically displayed or we have to adjust it here and there?

We only want a coding syntax box!!
That's broke completly the aim of a Notes tooling, wasting page space and removing any continuity on the content reading.
That's not what the users are requesting.
We just need this:
Why this screen into another screen?
to fulfill the requirement to use Microsoft services that currently are ignored by the users and try to justify make the application, heavier, slower and even more Internet dependant?
That's a note tool, as developer we always pushed to follo the KISS principle , but sems that MS goes on the oposite way.
That's the last Straw to make me decide to leave One Note.
For who don't know about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle

Thank you for the update. I can confirm the Loop component in the web version and that they cannot be added via the desktop version. When I add via web, and then view the page with the desktop app, I get this:

Hello, It's Jan 2025. This Loop Component works in the desktop version.
I don't really like it though just because it's over-engineered when I just want to get the spell checker to not go crazy over the syntax. The blocks they have in Discord for code is what I'm looking for. I can see this being useful for saving small complete scripts rather than the learning/note-jotting I'm doing that doesn't need to be saved separately to the cloud.
