Resolve page conflicts

Page conflicts sometimes happen in shared notebooks. We’ve made it easier to find and resolve the differences. Pages with conflicts will be marked with a triangle icon. After opening the Page Conflicts pane you’ll see the versions of the page, who edited it, and when. Choose which version you want to keep, or copy specific content from an earlier page version to the current page.

Your pages, your way

Page previews provide a glimpse of what’s in your notes by showing the first few words of text on the page, and a thumbnail of any pictures. Turn it on by checking Show Page Previews in the View > Navigation Panes drop down. If you like a more compact view of your page list, you can always clear the box and go back to seeing just the page title.

Hide subpages

This will indent the pages beneath the page above and allow them to be collapsed by clicking the chevron beside that page. Use Ctrl+Shift+* to expand or collapse the tabs of a page group.

Nickname your notebook

Add a nickname to your notebook to make it more personal and easier to find. This won’t change the original filename of the notebook or break any links you have to the notebook, it only changes the name that’s displayed in OneNote. Great for students with class notebooks.
