Learn how to automate your note-taking process with the Onetastic add-in. This video shows where to find the add-in online, where to find it within in the OneNote application once installed, how to use pre-built macros like OneCalendar, and how to download additional macros.
Onetastic is a free third party add-in for Microsoft OneNote 2010 and 2013. It gives some additional capabilities to manage notes, style texts, format images etc.
Onetastic works on Windows 7, 8, 8.1. It also supports Windows Vista with SP2 and Platform Update for Windows Vista. OneNote’s top ribbon will get some extra tabs after installing the add-in. You will be able to access Onetastic tools from those sections. Here I’m going to discuss about some core features of Onetastic.
Macros
Probably you’ve used Macros in Microsoft Excel for extended benefits. Onetastic offers Macros for OneNote in a different model. With this feature, you can do lots of repeated tasks automatically. Here is a screenshot of the Macros list for Onetastic.
For an example, suppose you need to edit a specific word used several times through the total note. Google chromecast for mac. If you want to do this task manually by finding each word and pasting the correct one, it would be tiresome. But Onetastic Macro has an option to do it with few clicks. You can use the ‘Search & Replace’ feature to find and fix the issue.
More Macro tools are available for Onetastic on Macroland.
OneCalendar
Using OneCalendar, you can organize your notes in a calendar view. This tool displays the notes according to their creation/last modification dates.
This method of arrangement comes handy when you use to-do related notes regularly. If you join frequent meetings, a calendar view can help a lot to maintain schedules.
Image Utilities
Onetastic Image Utilities comes with some useful stuffs. The tool adds some additional options in the OneNote context menu, so you can use those features quickly. It enables image cropping, selecting text from image, rotating/flipping printout-image files etc.
OneNote allows rotate/flip option for images only, but not for printout-images. So Onetastic solves this issue.
Custom Styles
If you care about formatting on OneNote, may be you will love to customize the default styling option. Onetastic made it easy to get some customized style sets.
Suppose, you want to use ‘Code’ style, but you don’t like the predefined ‘Courier New’ font. You might like ‘Consolas’ instead. Onetastic empowers you to get it on board.
Favorites/Shortcuts
If you need to access some specific notes frequently, this feature will be very useful. Onetastic enables you to add a shortcut of a note to open it quickly.
Onenote Add On
You can mark notes as favorites to give it a weighty identity. Creating a shortcut includes destination to desktop, favorites menu and other folders selected by user.
To see what’s more inside Onetastic, you can install it and give a try. Have you already used this add-in? How was your experience? Please share with us via comments. Thanks.

Make OneNote even more powerful by using Onetastic, a 'multi-purpose addin for Microsoft OneNote.' Built to be utilized with the desktop version of OneNote, this is the single most powerful tool to take your OneNote use to the next level.
What is Onetastic?
Onetastic utilizes macros, around 400 already created and custom solutions limited only by your imagination. 'Macros are small programs that can be used to perform simple repetitive tasks in OneNote very quickly. The idea is similar to macros in other Office applications which use VBA language. OneNote does not support VBA and Onetastic add-in provides a simple macro language and an editor to build macros.' (Source:https://getonetastic.com/docs/Getting_Started_with_Macros.html)
Essentially, a macro allows OneNote to read material, rearrange the material as desired, and save again.
