Any way to change the color of drawing pen in OneNote?


Brush Color in OneNote

Greeting All,

I am trying to find a way or any API which can change the color of the pen brush in OneNote. The purpose is to let users can use custom colors to draw or to text.

The existing official doc seems cannot provide the answer. Please suggest if any.

Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • Onenote is really abysmal, as far as I'm aware, there is no API supported to do anything like setting pen colour and thickness. Though it has been asked for many times. I just want the Radial Menu back! In the desktop Onenote you can't even change a favourite pen colour or thickness without deleting and readding it.

    The best you can do is create a keyboard script to go through the menus from 'Alt'.
