Right click and delete functionality missing in some areas of OneNote

Question

I am a long time user of OneNote. I use it to take notes at University. Recently, the option to delete an image has been removed. Whenever you have an image pasted in OneNote, and you right click it, there is no "delete" option. The option to delete an image is an essential part of a piece of software, how could this be missing?

I have to manually open up the on screen keyboard, and use the delete button there to remove the image when I'm in drawing mode.

And don't say use the "cut" functionality since I don't want it in my clipboard.

Hi Rayan,

Thanks for sharing updates with us.

Yes, OneNote 2016 there is not “Delete option” when click on image right-click menu.  

To address your concern about the situation, we suggest you provide the feedback via Microsoft OneNote app, to related team so that they can get notice about it. It’s the best way to report to related team and we are sure it will speed up this process. Your advice is very important to us. Refer to this article: How do I give feedback on Microsoft Office?

OneNote for office. It's the only good OneNote since it allows me to store my notebooks locally.

Answer 3

Hi Rayan,

As per your description, may I know are you using OneNote 2016 or OneNote windows 10 app on your PC. Based on your description, I have test on my side when I open OneNote windows 10 app, I’m able to see “Delete” option when I right-click on pasted image. However, when I test on OneNote 2016, I will meet same behaviour as you encounter.

 

If you are using OneNote windows 10 app and see Delete option on right-click menu first I suggest you, please updates your OneNote windows 10 app into latest version and see the result.

Appreciate your time and understanding.

Best Regards
