Onenote For Mac Align Text To Grid

Personalize Notes by Changing the Default Font Settings in Microsoft OneNote. One other option is to enable grid lines in your OneNote view, which will help you eye it at least: On the Ribbon, go to the View tab, and in the Page Setup area, there is a Rule Lines option where you can choose a grid to be displayed of various sizes. You can also check to have your pages always created with these grid lines. Use the arrow at the left to pull out the paragraph (pretty far) until it disconnects from the previous paragraph (has its own 3 dot bar on top). Now use the 3 dot bar to bring it back and align it manually. Note that using no grid aligns the text similarly to grid size 2. You can only align to the other grid sizes if they are turned on.

To configure the grid, or to turn off snapping, follow these steps:

1. Select a shape. Word adds the Drawing Tools section to theRibbon:
