OneNote 365 Not Displaying TABS LAYOUT > VERTICAL TABS Option

Hi Support,

I installed the latest version of Office 365 / Microsoft 365 and while searching online says to go to VIEW > TABS LAYOUT > VERTICAL TABS to make OneNote display the tabs vertical as opposed to horizontal; however, when I click on VIEW, I don't see this option and only see the follow image below.

I tried to go to FILE > OPTIONS > DISPLAY to see if I could customize the RIBBON and don't see this option.

Any advice is very much appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Sonny

Dear Sonny,

It seems that you are talking about the feature mentioned in New Layout Options for OneNote on Windows are coming soon (microsoft.com). I'm afraid that the feature hasn't been released to all version number of the OneNote application. I suggest you keep close eyes on the updates of the OneNote application and wait for the feature in your environment.

As a workaround, you can click on the notebook tab>click on Pin Notebook Pane to Side currently.

Thanks for your understanding and have a nice day!

Sincerely,

    Dear Bryan,

    I suggest you use Current Channel of the Office applications and install the latest version number of the applications in this channel in your environment.

    As similar issues may have different root causes, I suggest you post a new thread with the version number and the channel information in your environment on our forum and we'll follow up on the newly created thread with you further.

    Thanks for your effort and time.

    The article was released 12/2022 about this vertical tab feature. It's now 8/2023, how long does MS take to release something a lot of people would like to see? I am running latest release version of onenote app on the latest version of Windows 11 Enterprise.

    I don't even have this option. I'm using Microsoft 365 on Windows 10, OneNote version 16001.12026.20112.0. I recently had to get a new laptop at work and now my OneNote is a completely different version. My horizontal tabs used to be there and now they are gone; this isn't a new feature, this is the way I've been using it for years and now I have to wait for an update in order to get them back????????? I know this seems very silly but this is really frustrating. Give my horizontal tabs back.
