592 Chapter 20 Create and Organize Notes
A new Side Note window is a page in the Unfiled Notes section; you can navigate to any notebook,
section, or page from the Full Page view of the Side Note window.
The purpose of the Side Note window is to provide a small and easily accessible interface
to OneNote. Because of the small size of the Side Note window, only a subset of the rib-
bon tabs may be visible at a time.

Program Window” and “Exploring OneNote in the Default Notebook” in Chapter 18, “Explore
OneNote 2010.”
When the Keep On Top button in the Window group on the View tab is active, you can
position the Side Note in a convenient location on your screen, changing its size as nec-
essary, and enter information as you want to. When the Side Note window is on top, it
may get in the way of other windows, information, or commands that you might want to
access, so you’ll want to choose a location that doesn’t interfere with your work. You can
change the height or width of the window by dragging any side or corner of it.
Right-clicking the OneNote icon on the taskbar displays a list of options for collecting
information.
