scroll through pages

[mroth]

Can i scroll through pages on the right using my keyboard and not the mouse?
For example, if I am taking notes on one page, but need to quickly refer to a
different page and then go back to the page i am taking notes on, can i do
this all through key commands?

You can use Alt+RightArrow and Alt+LeftArrow much as you would in a
Web browser.

Alt+LeftArrow to go back. Alt+RightArrow to go forward again.

That does part of what you want.

i see how that works to scroll between the last page you looked at. what
about all the pages on the right?

Naturally, you need to have been there first.

If you use Alt+LeftArrow then you can use Alt+RightArrow to return to
the page you just left.

Or move to the page by mouse clicking.

It's not a complete solution to what you wanted to do. I don't think
that you can navigate in this version of OneNote in the way that you
would like to be able to do.

I assume that you are aware of the Navigator near the top left of the
OneNote screen. It is another option but not as convenient a
navigation metaphor as the one you mentioned in your original post.

What do you mean by "pages on the right"? The pages of the selected section
(changeable by Tools | Options | Display | "Page Tabs Appear on the Left") or
navigating/scrolling through something on the Task Pane?

If the former: Ctrl-PageUp and Ctrl-PgDn will do that.

If the latter: F6 cycles focus to and from the Task Pane, where the normal
KB shortcuts of Tab, Space, PageUp, PageDn, etc. will let you navigate and
work with controls.

ctrl-page up works!!! thank you to both of you guys. the function to toggle
between two pages [alt-left/right arrow] and the scrolling are both great and
exactly what i was looking for. good job!
