Pens _OneNote

 My playday, yesterday, led me to investigate the difference between Microsoft

pens 1 and 2, which I both own for different Surface tablets. And thus, the wonders

of Microsoft One Note, which it turns out, has a solid following; and which is free to use. 

The pen2 really comes into its own with this application.


What can one do with One Note. Create a notebook with sections, pages, notes,

drawings...The draw panel is intelligent: one can scribble something that looks

like a rectangle and it will jump to rectify it to a perfect shape. It will take a handwritten

text and turn it into perfect print! Here, with Windows10:

                                                                     


On windows11, with pen2, clicking on the rear of the pen will take on to Whiteboard. 

Clicking twice will turn that backend into an eraser:

                                                         

                                                                                 




                                                                          



One can free-select from what one downloads, get things translated.

Looking through YouTube tutorials suggests to me more can be done on Surface 9;

or maybe it is just with a paid 365 subs...


All this to say the technology is evolving quickly!! 🎢
