Free App: OneNoteGrab 1.0

OneNoteGrab 1.0 for macOS 10.10+

OneNote on the iPad Pro is an exceptional tool for note-taking, especially when writing using the Apple Pencil. However, OneNote on the Mac currently does not support copy-pasting of hand-drawn content to other apps. To address this oversight, OneNoteGrab 1.0 is a simple utility that automatically extracts a PNG image from the data copied to the clipboard by OneNote on the Mac, so that you can copy-paste your hand-drawn content into other macOS applications.

I use OneNote on the iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil to take hand-drawn notes on Udemy courses. The above is a notes snippet from a Teach Your Child to Read and Write course for K-2 kids. I use Evernote to sequence and prioritize such snippets.

Use the lasso selection tool in OneNote for macOS to precisely select the hand-drawn content. Then hit ⌘ C to copy.

With OneNoteGrab running. a PNG image will be automatically placed on the clipboard for pasting into other macOS apps.

This utility makes it easy to use hand-drawn content created in OneNote on your iPad Pro or Galaxy Note or Surface Pro, in your macOS authoring apps like Scrivener or Ulysses.
