Tips for OneNote MOONies

OneNote 2007
Tips:
For left-handed users, the page tabs and scroll bar can be displayed along the left side instead of the right, click Tools -> Options -> Display -> place a checkmark in ‘Page tabs appear on the left’ and ‘Vertical scroll bar appears on the left’. This makes it easier to navigate your pages when using a pen.
When a new page is created, the page tab’s name appears as “Untitled Page”. However, after you add a title to your page, the page tab adopts it as its new name. Even if you don’t explicitly give it a title, the page tab name will adopt the first few words of any text or ink that it sees on the page.
You can change a series of existing main pages into grouped pages by first selecting the range of pages, (this is done by holding down the Ctrl key while clicking on each additional page) -> then right-click the selection -> choose Group Pages. This causes the first page in the selected range to become the main page and all subsequent pages in the selected range to become subpages.
You can also change all subpages within a group to be main pages by right-clicking the page group -> and selecting Ungroup Pages.
You can adjust the properties of a page by right-clicking the page tab -> and pressing Page Setup. This is where you can specify the paper size, margins, rule lines, and more. You can even set your page surface to be a certain color.
Pages come with a page title at the top. This is a special container that floats above the page surface and is reserved for text and ink only. All other content will be stored on the page surface. Immediately beneath the page title you will see the creation date and time. You can easily change the date and time by clicking on them. Once you do so a small control will appear to the side, click on it to select the desired date or time.
