There is no easy way to delete a notebook.

That is just one out of the many bugs in the OneNote equation editor.Īnother thing I dislike about OneNote is the inability to delete notebooks. For instance, if you have a bunch of equations, one on each line, if you press Shift+Home (select until the start of the current line), OneNote will select the entire group of equations. This rules out OneNote for Chromebook users who want to use equations.Īnother big downside is the large amount of bugs in the OneNote equation editor. The OneNote mobile app lets you edit equations, but I don’t think it lets you create new ones. You can view equations, but not create or edit new ones. The biggest downside (for me) is the lack of equation editor support in the web version. Unfortunately, while OneNote supports a plethora of features, it does have some downsides, also. It also supports Ink to Math, which lets you see your drawings be automatically be converted to equations. The drawing tool supports lasso selection, erasing, typing, a lot of different colors and thicknesses, highlighting, and shapes drawing. You can draw with your mouse, your finger (on touchscreen devices), or a pen (either a stylus on touchscreen devices or using a special pen, like the ThinkPad Pen Pro, the Surface Pen, or the Apple Pencil. The equation editor lets you type equations, including, but not limited to, fractions, square/cubed/etc roots, exponents, Pi, and a lot other mathematical symbols.Īnother big reason to choose OneNote is for the built-in drawing feature. One of the biggest reasons to choose OneNote is for the equation editor. For instance, I have a School notebook, with a Math section, and then my notes from today are in a page. If you haven’t tried OneNote yet, OneNote is grouped into “notebooks” which have “sections”, which have “pages”. If you like lots of features, such as password protection, advanced reviewing, drawing, built-in integration with Microsoft Excel, and a lot more, OneNote is definitely for you. OneNote is Microsoft’s note-taking program. However, I chose these three because they are very popular, sync across all of your devices, and support more formatting than others like Google Keep. There are a ton more – Simplenote, Google Keep, and a lot I haven’t listed. OneNote, Evernote, Dropbox Paper, and Google Docs are four of the biggest note-taking programs.
