An update for OneNote!
I guess everyone on the internet already noticed, but we just updated OneNote and you can download the new version from the Windows Store here: https://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-US/app/onenote/f022389f-f3a6-417e-ad23-704fbdf57117
I hope you enjoy it. Now on my Surface Pro I can change pen colors for inking. Technically, you can do this on any device, but I mention the Pro because it has an active screen and comes with a stylus. We also connect to Office 365 notebooks and the list of notebooks you have recently opened will show as well. This way you don't have to keep track of quite so many URLs.
Testing of this went well. For the roaming of notebooks, for instance, we had a good test plan from testing that for the Win32 client and updated it for the different UI for the store client. In "desktop" OneNote, you can see the list of recently opened notebooks in File | Open. In the store client, that same list shows on the left part of the screen under the notebooks you have open (right side of the screen on languages that are right to left). Since much of the core functionality was the same we were able to get this feature out to you quickly.
I don't have much more I can add here that hasn't already been mentioned all over the place so I will step back and let everyone enjoy this update. And as usual, feel free to let me know what you think.
Questions, comments, concerns and criticisms always welcome,
John

On my Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2 the writing with pen much more convinient in OneNote x86. When I write with pen in OneNote MX the delay between movement of pen and drawing it on the screen is too much.Anonymous

Hi Kelvin, The extensibility model we have does not allow addins like that to be written. I have passed your comments on to the design team to see if we can improve this in the future, though.
