When using Windows Office OneNote on a Surface or Windows tablet, in order to get more writing space, the notebook list pane is hidden, but the page tabs list pane cannot be hidden, and finally the width of the page tabs list pane can only be stretched to the narrowest.
Is it possible to hide the page tabs list pane as well?
Gem for OneNote v73 provides the ability to set up this view with one click.
