Charles ~ Vote for that to be implemented here:

There should be a setting to move the list of pages...

    It's... an improvement. But it feels like they've replaced one design flaw for another. I can understand why they might choose the multiple panes pattern for a tablet/mobile experience, but there's no need for it on a laptop/desktop, where the dynamic sliding behaviour is a distraction. They've also moved the list of pages to be part of this multiple panes pattern - they were perfectly fine where they were, on the right-hand side of the window! Another issue is that the panes can't be set to a custom width - too bad if you want to see the full titles of sections and pages at-a-glance. 

    OneNote works (on Windows, at least) because of its notebooks-at-the-left, sections-along-the-top, pages-down-the-right layout. To me, it's one of the fundamental parts of what makes OneNote (on Windows) worth using. The refusal to replicate a consistent experience for other OS' is baffling.

    Pinned notes are now a thing!

    Go to OneNote ==> Preferences ==> General

    tick the box that says "enable experimental features"

    restart OneNote

    Now you will all your notebooks on the left, then another column with pages, and a third with the notes themselves. I like this better than the windows version actually.

    Sorry, I found the pin to tack the notebooks down and then the twisty to see the folders underneath. 

    Solved my own problem.

    Also, I recognize I posed this to the wrong forum.  I saw after the fact it was for Mac and not Widows.  Sorry for that.  Please feel free to move or delete this as necessary.
