If you Can’t Find the Screen Clipping Option in OneNote…

The option to create screen clippings is one of the best features of Micosoft OneNote. I much prefer it over the “print screen” feature in Windows because OneNote’s screen clipping feature allows you to easily focus on an area of the screen.

The one thing though is that if you can’t seem to find the feature, you many need to install the OneNote Service Pack 1. Head to Microsoft to download the service pack, install the service pack, and your screen clipping option should appear when you restart the program.

I find the OneNote icon in the system tray very helpful for creating screen clipping and getting into one note quickly. If for some reason the icon “disappears” from the system tray, here’s how to get it back.

1. Open OneNote and head to Tools->Options.

2. In the Options dialogue box that appears, head down to the bottom of the left column and select Other.

3. Select the Place OneNote icon in the notification area of the taskbar and press ok.

OneNote Keyboard Shortcut for Screen Clipping

One of the things I like most about Microsoft OneNote is the ability to easily create screenshots (screenclips as OneNote calls them). While you can always create a screenshot by using the icon in the system tray, I often prefer to use keyboard shortcuts.

So without further adue, the keyboard shortcut for creating a screen clipping with OneNote is WIN+S (that’s the Windows Key + S).
