OneNote Replica of Todopaper
Someone recently asked how Microsoft Office OneNote could possibly be used as a replica of popular list manager Todopaper. Here's what I came up with:
- Add your to-do items to a OneNote page, one item per line.*
- If you want a to-do style check box next to an item, position the cursor on the desired line and insert a To Do tag (by pressing CTRL + 1 -- that’s default behavior in my version of OneNote anyway). When you complete an item, click the corresponding check box to put a check in it.
- If you like strikethroughs, triple-click the line, and then select strikethrough formatting for the selected text.
- Add some headings to group the items for easier visual scanning.
* By the way, to save time creating new OneNote pages, you can click the Open New Side Note tray icon to create a new page and display it and type the content in there. You can access these pages later by clicking the Unfiled Notes button in the lower-left corner of OneNote itself.
