Are there any plans for a way to format code blocks in OneNote without inserting a 1 column/row table or an ugly print out? The most relevant Google search brings up a post from 2018 where the top answer says its been requested on UserVoice and directs OP there, but 3 years later, still no code block formatting options and Microsoft isn't using UserVoice anymore so I don't where else I can submit feature requests besides this discussion board. Thanks!346KViews20likes25CommentsPlease add Markdown support
Please add support for Markdown editing/rendering. EverNote and Boostnote all support this, but OneNote still lacks this feature, while it remains so many developers' main notetaking tool. Take myself as an example, I enjoy its seamless integration with OneDrive and powerful search function, but find it difficult to properly take down coding related notes -- I was forced to format code snippets into monospaced font with shading to make them look like "code snippets". To elaborate the user story about this idea: The user can create a new "regular page" or a "Markdown page". If the latter, then Markdown tags entered are rendered as you type (e.g. #title, >quote, *bold*, `code`...) The user might also enjoy a "cell editing" mode (similar to Jupyter Notebook). So if the cursor is placed in a cell, then it changes to raw text view. And once escaped from this cell, it gets rendered. And maybe enable some Jupyter/VS Code stype shortcut keys, too (Alt+Up/Down to move the cell, Alt+Shift+Up/Down to duplicate the cell, Ctrl+Shift+K to kill a line, etc) This way notetaking will be more efficient/fun, and many developers would thank MS!117KViews205likes73CommentsOneNote and Apple Scribble
I’m running the public beta version of iPadOS 14. Apple now has a feature called scribble, which let’s the user take the Apple Pencil and hardwrite text into any text field and Apple converts it to typed text. This doesn’t work in the current version of OneNote. I suspect that is because of the way that OneNote executes its free form text boxes. Will OneNote eventually support this feature. I’d REALLY like to take notes in OneNote with my pencil and using handwriting, but having the Apple functionality turn it into text. FYI, it already works on Evernote.88KViews30likes22CommentsOneNote lagging while typing
OneNote for Mac has become really slow and lagging while I try to type notes on lecture slides. I normally import a PDF on a page and write notes over it, but it cannot keep up with even short bursts of typing without freezing. Currently running OneNote 16.42.20101102 on macOS catalina 10.15.7. I've tried closing the notebook and reopening and shutting the program down etc. - any help would be much appreciated!Solved16KViews3likes9CommentsHow to paste a video link without a preview by default?
Every time I paste a YouTube video link like below: OneNote 2019 creates a preview. All I want is a simple link like the one below: My only solution is to press control + z to undo, then it fixes the format. However, I wish there was a setting somewhere that would change the default pasting of a video?SolvedSync Error- E0001462 bukxq 30102 server issues
Hi fellow user, I wonder if someone can help me with this error. I have about 20 pages in a section, inside a section group, each with a small audio file and a pdf, plus handwritten notes. This error appears for the last few pages, saying OneNote can't sync now, and that the pages with the issue were last synced at a specific time, a few hours ago. This is actually a copy of a previous Notebook I was using, but got a lot of E000145C bukxh 10007 errors, from trying to use it in 2 devices at the same time, I've since made this new notebook copy i'm using, and only one one device. Do you have any ideas? Could it be some sort of size issue with the section or section group? I've tried to contact support, but there is no technical support for OneNote from the Windows Store, and leave feedback on the app itself. I won't close the Notebook or reinstall the app, as that will lead to data loss. I can try to copy the page somewhere else, and copy back again, but I want to understand WHY I even have to do that in the first place. I sincerely appreciate any help you could provide to this issue, Stay healthy and safeWhere ARE OneNote files saved?
Today I was using OneNote to save some notes form an online course I'm going through. I realized that I was putting all these notes into the wrong OneNote notebook. I searched to see if I had a different OneNote notebook for the new that I wanted to create. There was none, so I proceeded to create it. Only OneNote than complained to me, saying that a OneNote notebook by that name, already existed. Oh yeah, well then where in heck is it? I looked in my OneDrive for it (I have a Microsoft 365 Family Edition license). According to https://www.filedesc.com/en/app/microsoft-office-onenote all OneNote files end with a file extension that looks like this .one* So, I looked at the root level of my OneDrive for all files ending in .one*. It didn't find anything. Huh? The mystery is getting larger. When I look inside OneNote, to say add a new notebook, it will show me the names of the available OneNote notebook. But when I try to find them searching using OneDrive - no way. Nothing exists anywhere. I'm pretty sure that OneNote does use OneDrive for saving OneNote notebooks. I'm sure of this because when I use my Windows 10 desktop, or Window 10 laptop, or my Android phone, I can find all of those notebooks as notebooks I could add. So, what in heck is going on here? Does OneNote obfuscate the file name for some reason of it's own?9.6KViews0likes2CommentsI WANT UPGRADATION OF ONENOTE ANDROID TABLET VERSION TO WINDOWS 10 VERSION (AT LEAST IPAD VERSION)

I WANT ONENOTE ANDROID TABLET VERSION TO BE DEVELOPED TO exactly same as WINDOWS 10 VERSION. As many people can't afford ipad or windows 10...actually the app is different in three system; Windows maximum features; apple ios moderately & ANDROID has the least features....I want to use windows features in android as it severely lacks in android, ......NEED THOSE FEATURES WITHIN 2 weeks!!!!! SEVERELY DISAPPOINTED!!!!! I want the OneNote on Android to be improved so it becomes the same as that on a windows 10 computer. Kindly note...I tried in app feedback....feedback in Google playstore...mail them,.... feedback hub....uservoice ...techcommunity even microsoft community 1) one request...IF ONE DRIVE IS LIKE GOOGLE DRIVE...I can easily download every single notebook UNLIMITED TIMES....I Would be soo glad....THAT TECHNICAL GLITCH IS SEVERELY LACKING IN ONE DRIVE..... MICROSOFT HAS CREATED A BLUNDER BY DOING ONE NOTE AS ONLINE NOTE APP...IF IT WAS LIKE A OFFLINE APP...TAKE NOTES..MANUALLY UPLOAD NOTE ALONG WITH NOTEBOOK ; IT WOULD BE THE BEST....problem is why ppt word excel works offline but one note online????Actually no device has default ONETOC FILE OPENER APP..except onenote...so big problems 2) it is a request....so that you do from next time..........See Office onenote and onenote for windows 10 both apps are there for pc....I want THE OFFICE ONE NOTE APP TO BE REPLACED BY ONENOTE TOR WINDOWS 10 WHICH IS INSTALLED FROM MICROSOFT STORE... Do you get it??? There are 2 onenote in windows 10 1 is from office installation...and other is from Microsoft store by free install download I want only 1 onenote app to remain (that is from the Microsoft store app Version....) During windows office installation...that onenote should come only....and the office onenote should be removed forever regarding windows 10 onenote 3) there is printing issue... A) In office onenote Suppose I write....something WITH HAND WRITING with highlighter and try to print Then find blurred highlighted area..dotted colour is there ...(this is not in onenote for Microsoft store as well as android onenote) B) print quality too bad in windows 10 laptop onenote ...Android version ( the version we still have) quality is moderate C) a long note section if try to print in windows 10 onenote/ office onenote.... both cases, not full note is printed....some areas come twice...some area become too wide.... it does not come as a single page.....I tried every way...but in vain https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/43667118-onenote-android 4) Windows onenote to android syncing is good but Why the android to laptop onenote syncing is terribly bad???

That page is opening in laptop .... 5) Android has default multiple pdf reader app...ppt reader app word reader app....BUT WHY NOT ONENOTE READER APP......??? ONLY ONENOTE IS THERE IN THE app which can open onenote files....Should have more onenote reader app..... As eg...pdf can be opened as xodo...3rd party app.. Google drive...onenote....scanner apps...etc... That's how onenote files should be downloaded and opened by other apps.. there are many pdf opening apps for Android, but in case a onenote file DOWNLOADED FROM ONENOTE APP (in windows 10)...when I print as onenote file...it saves locally as ONETOC2 File....my complian is why there is no other onetoc opening app without onenote.... There is so much pdf opening, ppt word opening apps are there...why not onetoc2 opening???....it also should be treated as local file and to be edited and saved....isn't it??? So developers , do something to make samsung note app as onetoc file opener app....Samsung and Microsoft developer should work hand in hand each Microsoft apps have been replaced by some new.....onenote fetaure are inferior to GOODNOTES 5.....EDGE security is inferior to FIREFOX....WORD EXCEL PPT ANDROID IS not good as WPS OFFICE.......ONEDRIVE features should be like GOOGLE DRIVE.... XODO is better than android office in case of pdf editing See??

Hello! For the past few years I have been dealing with an unexpected and difficult use case between the OneNote 2016 (Desktop) and Apps (mobile, online, Win10, etc.) in regards to how PDF printouts are handled. When importing a PDF as a printout in OneNote, there is a difference in the resolution of the printout when viewing the PDF in the 2016 (Desktop) version when compared to OneNote App in Online, iPad, mobile, etc. **If importing a PDF printout in OneNote 2016 (Desktop): PDF is full resolution in desktop program (OneNote 2016) PDF is reduced resolution when viewing in OneNote App (mobile, iPad, Online, Win 10, etc.) **If importing a PDF printout in OneNote App (mobile, tablet, Win10 App, etc.): PDF is full resolution in BOTH desktop program (OneNote 2016) and OneNote App (mobile, iPad, Online, Win 10, etc.) Because of this, I am forced to import PDFs through the OneNote App in order to get the full resolution of the PDF. I can't just use the OneNote 2016 desktop PDF import, then go to a mobile device to read papers/edit. This behavior has been around for a while, and makes working with OneNote difficult since I use the PDF printout daily. This problem has been documented multiple times in the past in the following posts: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/onenote-app-renders-pdfs-in-low-quality/ea64a37d-eba9-45bf-bdb0-968aef1d338f Good description of the resolution difference between the imports, and the "workaround" solution via importing through mobile app https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_onenote-mso_win10-mso_o365b/onenote-pdf-printout-low-resolution-on-other/caf6afc5-becf-4ab4-9890-5c0d1f298510 Previous OneNote employee describing what he/she believes is the cause of this low resolution import Based on the posts, the issue seems to be from OneNote 2016 using XPS as a native backend, and the apps rending the PDF resolution in a different manner: "2016 uses XPS as a native backend which is why the high quality rendering occurs only on that platform and on the OneNote Win10 app." - https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_onenote-mso_win10-mso_o365b/onenote-pdf-printout-low-resolution-on-other/caf6afc5-becf-4ab4-9890-5c0d1f298510 Does anyone know why this is occurring? Is it due to the XPS backend of the desktop 2016? Is there a fix for this behavior? Short or long term? Any help/comment/feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!6.3KViews0likes2Comments
