Insert Pronunciation

Start Timer

Default shortcut is Alt + F2

Starts and opens a visual timer. This small window will first appear in the upper right corner of the display and immediately starts counting seconds, minutes, and hours. There are three controls on the window: copy the current value to the clipboard, restart the timer from zero, and close the timer. The window can be moved but is limited to the current desktop window.

 

Timer

 

The current value shown in the timer window can easily be inserted into the body of the open page by using the Insert Timer command.

 

Insert Timer Value

Default shortcut is F2

Inserts the current value shown in the timer window. The timer window must be started using the Start Timer command.

 

Show XML

Default shortcut is Ctrl + Alt + Shift + X

Developing OneMore meant reverse-engineering the way Microsoft built OneNote. And it's XML schema reference documentation was only half the picture. This editor became invaluable while trying to decipher the behavior and how OneNote manages its page content.

 

Warning

Directly changing the XML of a page may result in data loss. Only update temporary testing pages.
