Improvement of OneNote plugin

[Odotocodot]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I would like to improve the current OneNote plugin.
The main goal would be to port many of the features from this OneNote plugin¹ for Flow Launcher (an application that also uses Wox).
It should help with some of the points mentioned here #22153.

Outline of potential new features

• View notes hierarchically (support for notebooks, section groups, sections and pages).
• Quickly create new notebooks, section groups, sections and pages.
• Search only in a specific hierarchy item.
• View recent items.

Scenario when this would be used?

Ideally whenever you want to use OneNote!

Supporting information

Evidence would be the already created plugin.
For instance here is a gif of the "Notebook Explorer" feature:

The readme for repo also contains other examples of what the plugin can do.
This would also change the plugin dependency from Scipbe.Common.Office.OneNote to Linq2OneNote¹.

Hi @Odotocodot. What would be your solution? 🙂

Hi @Jay-o-Way.
I would like to add as many of the features from the flow plugin as possible. Mainly these 5:

• Notebook Explorer
• Create New Items
• Recent Pages
• Scoped Search
• Title Search

Current progress can be see here: main...Odotocodot:PowerToys:feature/improve-onenote-plugin

Still fixing bugs and I havent started on any localization yet, but most of the features have been implemented.

Hi, currently extremely busy so haven't been able to work on the branch.

Hi @Jay-o-Way,
I've restarted development on this, fixed bugs and moved UI facing strings to resources ready for localization.

The changes can be seen on the new branch here

So I believe it is ready for a pull request!

Thanks for the mention. Pug-ins aren't really my cup of tea. @htcfreek knows much more about them.

Well as you did the work already I think you can open a PR and either it gets accepted by the core team or not. But I don't see any reason why we shouldn't accept improvements.

Alternatively you can create your own plugin, release it and add it to the third-party plugins list.

Thanks for the heads up! I shall make a pull request.

Hopefully, the core team accepts it.
