How to show current section in the folder hiearchy in OneNote 2013

In Microsoft OneNote 2013, is there a way to show where the current page's section lives in the hierarchical folder structure? In other words, a command to open the folder tree with the current section selected.


Solution 1:

There are two ways:

a) Hover the mouse over the current section tab. A hint will pop up showing the folder hierarchy of the section.

b) Click the Full Page View button. In the top right of the screen the notebook and section hierarchy will be shown.

c) Click on the notebook drop down in the top left beneath the File task bar. Once it is expanded, click the pin in the right hand side of that dialogue. That will permanently set the nav bar on the left side. See Navigation in OneNote 2013.

Solution 2:

This link shows a 3rd way to permanently show the nav panel. You click on the notebook drop down in the top left beneath the File task bar. Once it is expanded, click the pin in the right hand side of that dialogue. That will permanently set the nav bar on the left side.
