More color with "Font Color" and "HighLight" area
Kinasti 12/10/2008 6:48:01 AM
Hi

When using OneNote 2007, I found in "Font Color" and "Highlight" default
button have very limited color to choose. Font Color have 40 color, and
Highlight have 15.

Is it possible to have more color?

Thanks

Those color choices are hardcoded into the program and cannot be modified
or added to.

Thanks for your reply.

I don't understand why OneNote is less color choices than the other Office
2007 programs.

Thank you again

Part of that is in keeping with the paper metaphor that OneNote uses. On
real paper, one does not normally employe 100s of colors of pens or
highlighters. Many people on this forum have asked for more colors, and
perhaps MS will respond in a future version. MS folks do monitor the
newsgroups and pass feedback to the appropriate folks internally.

RightyRight!
AFAICS hardly anybody uses more than 2 or 3 highlihters (at the max) …
