General usage questions Passion Pop Princess 11/27/2008 3:11:01 AM Hi glad you guys exist :) is there a keyboard shortcut to open a new container whilst in an existing one? Can I use the draw function to draw in a container (i suspect not cause i've tried but maybe i'm not doing it right) so that I can move the text and drawing together? if not, is there a walk around that someone will share with me? I love the concept of one note, great for organising my ideas for assignments and essay's but its a bit clunky and not too friendly for visual learners but still better than the death of the rain forests and having to 'revise' notes with every new idea. yay.

You can draw in OneNote - just right click the menu bar and tick Drawing Tools. Moving text and drawing together - OneNote has its limitations in this area and it is one of the more frequently requested options for the next version. Search this newsgroup for a variety of solutions and workarounds. Depending on how demanding your requirements are in this area, you may find the current functionality sufficient. -- David Olsen www.powerbits.com.au "Passion Pop Princess" <Passion Pop Princess[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:78A58001-2256-47C8-85BA-25B4191D4C93[ at ]microsoft.com...

I was actually looking for a shortcut to open a new container, whilst in an existing one. For example I was setting up containers with only headings that I will expland later. But I could not figure out how to 'jump' from my current container to a new one for the next heading with out having to go to the mouse. thanks for your knowledge on moving text and drawing conainters :) PPP

Re: General usage questions Passion Pop Princess 11/27/2008 9:56:08 AM Doh, it was in around about way, thank you :) when writing in a container on a page, down arrowing several times will allow me start a new container. yay. Thanks again for not leaving me alone in the unknown!

The easiest way IMO is to just click on icon in the lower right corner of the scroll-bar. You can then click on the space below the existing container and this will open a new container. Rainald
