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,

    I don't think so. The new layout option clearly shows a Tab Layout dropdown as part of the View ribbon. That option is not there and I've already looked to see if it could be added to the ribbon. So we cannot customize our layout. It's like we got half of the new layout but not all and can't move notebook pages to the right as that option and 2 others are greyed in the Display Options of OneNote. If you follow the conversation back to my first post, there is a fairly detailed description of what is happening, minus screenshots, which for some reason I could not include.

    Maybe, what you describe is the new layout.

    We don't. Under View we do not see the Tab Layout option to select either Horizontal or Vertical. I've also looked for those options in commands to add to Ribbon and Tab Layout is not available.

    Thanks - DLC80

    You have the new tab layout feature. This is the reason why these 3 options are grayed out and you don't see the pin.
