Onenote bug: Improper Ink!

[flibbertigibbet007]

One note does not use the inking standard!
I mean, you can not copy ink from Win-Journal into onenote, and have it act
like ink. It copies as an image. Or any other inking program.
*patiently waits for the release of sp2 onenote*

Actually, it is real TabletPC ink, as you can see from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...en-us/odc_on2003_ta/html/odc_ON_ImportAPI.asp.
Unfortunately, because of time constrainsts, we couldn't get full
roundtrippability of the ink. In SP1, we added the ability to at least
insert native ink into OneNote through the simple import API.

Better manipulation of ink into/out of OneNote has often been requested. I
also wish we had this.

But arent you on the onenote developent team? If this is on your wishlist,
then who do we need to talk to, to actually get something done!
Why arent you barking up your corperate ladder to get things worked on.
Listen to your users.
I want to see more from onenote!
We need more powertoys too! And addins.

Believe me, my wishlist is very long, and my dream list is even longer. And
most common users requests are in there too. But it's all about doing the
right compromises. Chris has a good essay on this at
http://weblogs.asp.net/chris_pratley/archive/2004/01/31/65606.aspx .

In short, I just can't promise any feature, but believe me, we're working
hard at making the very best OneNote we can.
