Here is my list of things that really need to be fixed in the first
service pack for OneNote 2007. Please only add things to this list that
are really bugs in this current version that would be appropriate to fix
in a service pack. There is no point in requesting new features in a
service pack.
1) Printing cuts things in half.
2) Floating TIP button doesn't always appear. This occurs most often when
you first place the cursor into a paragraph or when you create a new
paragraph. Moving the scroll bar will cause the TIP to appear but
sometimes you don't have a scroll bar to move.
3) List of section groups and sections that appears when you click the
"Expand Navigation Bar" button is stuck at the same set of expanded and
collapsed items. Some items are collapsed but most are fully expanded. No
matter how many times I collapse all those expanded items they come right
back the next time I look at the list. This exceedingly long list with
such a small amount of indentation and no lines to show parentage makes
it very difficult to navigate this list. It is almost worthless because
of this one bug.
4) Clicking web links always uses Internet Explorer regardless of default
browser setting. I realize this may not happen to everyone but I am
convinced it is a "bug" in OneNote as it doesn't happen with any other
software.
5) Clicking hyperlinks to other OneNote items that are in notebooks which
are already opened still causes OneNote to ask you if you want to open
the section or the notebook. It then opens that section separately even
though it is already opened rather than just jumping to the page or
paragraph.
These are the main bugs that I can find which never should have gotten
past the beta. Some I reported while still in beta but were never fixed.
Some, unfortunately, are new to the RTM version. Numbers 4 & 5 only
showed up after I entered the registration key into the trial version to
register it. That is pretty sad.
