Do you know when it is going to be avaible on Android?

[miriamnicol]

How do I enable it?

This must be for the PC version of one note as I can not find this festure on my andoid. A shame becsuse thats the entire reason i bought it. One note does not work well with lenovo built in text converter and the option id down right grayed out and inaccessible on my android. If anyone can help this qould be a blessing. I love one note and this is infuriating. I refuse to buy a stupid surface just for instant use like this this.

Previously, it was feature on Galaxy Note 10 series that was heavily highlighted by Samsung 😅

Seems useful for those who mostly writing using stylus like writing on paper

Is there a way to do this with a handwritten text on paper to convert it to a document?

Hi Aldo, is it possible to ask your friends at OneNote if they will ever build a function that allows one to highlight the pen/stylus tip in the writing area. Something similar to the halo that one can put around the mouse to draw the viewer's attention. If you have a work around for this please share I will be very grateful.

This does not appear to be available on my version of OneNote on my laptop. Do I need to have a pen connected?

[Cbaroglio]

Thank you for sharing. I just bought my first Surface Pro 9. Amazing!

How can I add this A text pen on surface pro 9? one note

[gregorylackey]

Most of the comments are, how do we get this to be activated? Nobody has it

[imamfattahillah]

Is it available in one note office 2016?

This may just make me change from Nebo. I'll see if it can convert a chemical equation to text. Nebo has a problem with Chemical equations as it thinks its a mathematical equation.

Is there any way to change the default ink thickness of the text pen?
