    OneNote: Things are moving around on their own!


    So, I write my notes for class in OneNote. I write equations. With a lot of variables in them. It's important that they stay perfect so I can actually study from them.

    Lately, things have started moving on their own. A division bar, an answer, a highlighting, whatever. They slide up the page on their own. Sometimes just a bit, sometimes a LOT. All my equations are ruined on one page, but fine on another. I never actually see them move. I go back to look at something else and come back to the page I was on and everything has moved.

    I can't take it. My notes are being ruined. Why is this happening, and how can I stop it?

    Without seeing an example, my guess would be that the formatting is being handled differently. See if either of the two options here help:

    Perhaps a pre-defined template will help. :)

    I'm just making everything a blank page. Here's an example: http://scrnsht.com/nzggyi
    To tell the truth, I have no idea where everything was supposed to be...

    Math Software


    I ran across this the other day. Never used it. It may be more friendly to your math work than One Note.

    Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - Microsoft Mathematics 4.0

    I noticed one requirement was net frame work be loaded for it to work.

    Great program, HammerHead. I used it all the way through Calculus this past Summer.

    eitsuop, you might have a look at this article:

    OneNote : Moving things in OneNote « Tablet PC – A Student's Perspective

    I'm wondering if you could use the "Lasso Tool" to group things as you go along - hopefully they'll stay that way when you refer back to your notes later on. :)

    I'll definitely give the grouping idea a try. Using a different program isn't an option for me, though, as I already have a month's worth of notes in OneNote and am also taking notes for English and French classes, not just math.

    Thank you for the suggestions!
