A powertoy from Jeff Cardon, one of the OneNote Testers…

Takes selected pages in OneNote and at the click of a button it will merge all of the pages together into one page.

A screenshot of what it looks like in the toolbar:

Some notes: there is a popup dialog which explains Undo is not supported.  You can disable this dialog if you want, and I recommend disabling it as soon as you get comfortable with the implications that Undo is not supported.  There is another warning if you merge more than 10 pages at a time.  Again, you can disable this warning.

 

The reason I suggest disabling those warning are this is another managed code addin, so we cannot control focus of the confirmation dialogs.  If you click the button and it looks like nothing happened, look “behind” OneNote to see the dialog.  It’s easier just to live without the dialogs when you merge pages.

 

When installing, as usual, exit OneNote, run setup.exe and choose to install for all users.

The MindJet “OneNote 2007 + MindManager” PowerToy has been updated for MM7 and can be obtained from MindJet Labs…  

OneNote 2007 Integration with MindManager Pro 7 (Registration required for download)

From MindJet…. 

1.0.7: OneNote 2007 Integration with MindManager Pro 7: Send To MindManager, OneNote Hyperlinks in MindManager, and Notebook Hierarchy Mapping

Version 1.0.7 (8/3/2007)

This demonstrates a synergistic relationship between two applications, Microsoft Office OneNote 2007 and Mindjet MindManager Pro 7:

• From MindManager, you can easily map out the Notebooks, Section Groups, Sections, Pages, and Subpages, including hyperlinks:
  Select Add-Ins Tab…OneNote 2007 Notebooks.
• From MindManager, you can send the current map to OneNote as an image that you can sketch on and annotate:
  Select MindManager …Export…Microsoft Office OneNote 2007.
• From OneNote, you can send a page to MindManager as a hyperlinked topic:
  Press the Send to MindManager button on the Standard toolbar in OneNote.

SnagIt Output for OneNote 2007 has entered my Top 3 favorite PowerToys.

From Kathy’s blog…

The new accessory lets you send almost any snag to OneNote directly from the SnagIt preview. By default, the snags go to your cursor location. But you can easily change the output location to any page in any section in any open notebook or to any page in your unfiled notes. If you want, you can even have SnagIt create a page in a section and put the output there. (New pages get the title “Snag” followed by a sequence number.) You can change the default from your cursor location to any of the other locations as well. (What’s a Snag? That’s a screen shot you take with SnagIt!)

I have been testing it out and have found a lot of great uses for it. For example:

• I hate that there has been no easy way to get long/wide pages to my notes. Now I can set up a Snag to grab the scrolling page, then send that straight to the page in my notes that I want.
  
• I can annotate my screen captures and then send them to OneNote. Since the OneNote clipping tool doesn’t let me do annotations, this is a biggie for me. I hate that when I annotate a capture in OneNote, the annotations don’t move with the capture if I drag the capture. By using Snagit, I can capture my content, annotate it, and then send it to OneNote. Really slick.
• I want to capture specific objects from PPT or a web page and drop them in OneNote. I can copy and paste, but I have to hope that the person who created the object did it right in order to always get what I want. Now, I can snag the object and send the object to my notes.

Brian Dewey has created a OneNote PowerShell Provider PowerToy which uses the power of scripting to get to OneNote data.

He includes several scripts, such as the “Get-OneNoteDigest.ps1″ which sends email when pages in a shared OneNote notebook change.

Also check out a more recent post about Technology: Todo.txt, PowerShell, and OneNote and how he can use his TodoTxt scripts to manipulate his list inside OneNote!

Gary Neitzke, a tester for MS OneNote, has created a “favorites” powertoy…

Purpose:

Allow a simple way to keep a list of notebooks without having to memorize locations, allowing you to close and re-open notebooks without knowing the path.

Description:

A powertoy that works like the “favorites” of IE. You add a Notebook to the list then it allows you to close the notebook in OneNote. Then in a few minutes/hours/days/months/years etc… when you need to open it but can’t remember the path, you just click on the favorites and the notebook is there ready to go, no more remember long paths and locations.

How to use:

To launch you just click the Favorites from your standard toolbar. The first launch will take a second or two since it is busy creating a file to store your favorites. You can add the notebook you are viewing or all the notebooks that are open. When you want to open a notebook you can double click the notebook to open it, right click it or just use the open command. You can also open multiple notebooks from the list. If a notebook has been removed/moved it will prompt you it cannot find the notebook and lets you know to try again or remove it from the list. You can also copy the paths to the notebooks by right clicking on them and selecting copy.

Nani Courten of the OneNote Testing Team has created a Table Of Contents PowerToy.

It creates a new Table Of Contents page for the section with hyperlinks to all the pages. It also shows the creation date, last modified date, and sorts them by last modified at the top.

Click here for a larger screenshot. (Demo section/pages based on krypticide’s X61 Review posted using the Web Export powertoy.)

Dave Tse has created a really cool OneNote Web Exporter and released it via CodePlex (MS Open Source)…

What is this for?
The OneNote Web Exporter allows you to export a OneNote notebook as html files that anybody can view through a web browser.

How does it work?
You give it a OneNote 2007 Notebook and it will generate an html page and a folder containing all of the notebook data.

What can I do with it?

• Export a notebook when you need to send it to somebody who doesn’t have OneNote 2007
• Maintain a browser accessible version of your notebook by scheduling a daily export to a SharePoint server
