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,

Cliff | Microsoft Community Moderator

    Ditto. Just updated today, now have the same version as you and still no vertical tabs option. Baffling.

    Cliff, the answers you have been giving in this community Q and A are not really worth your effort in typing them.

    I guess you have some communication channel with Microsoft? Can you not use that communication channel to get an answer the the question that everyone is asking? Someone in Microsoft's dev/deployment team?

    By the way I did open a MS support ticket on this question and the answer I got from the support worker was about the same as if I had asked my grandmother, i.e. I am sorry I have no idea.

    Pretty useless.

    Thanks.
