ctrl+V still act as paste in visual mode and is not as block choose as in Vim inOneNote

Hi ,
I am using this plug most for block choose in OneNote, but when i change into Visual mode and use ctrl+v to choose the block, it still asc as paste function.
is there any way to act ctrl + v as the same as in Vim?

I'm sorry but block-wise select is not possible on apps other than vim, then it is not mapped in vim_ahk.

You can disable "paste" at Visual mode by changing
"Disable unused keys in the normal mode" as "3" in vim ahk settings.

It is welcome any idea to realize "block-wise" select!

Hi rcmdnk,
In daily onenote using i using ctrl + mouse left select the content to simulate the 'block-select'
I have a idea in some mode whether we can use alt or ctrl+Arrow(up/down/left/right) to achieve the ctrl + mouse left select

I tried on OneNote app version 2412 (build 18324.20168) (Windows11),
but Ctrl + mouse does not work.

How did you get working block select function?

i am on Microsoft OneNote 2024MSO（2412 Build 16.0.18324.20092) 64 (Win10)
And Onenote 2021 one Win11 it all work
Just hold Ctrl + hold mouse left to slip the line or content it will like block-select
use Shift + mouse click will select the whole line
let me use the screen keyboard to show you
please see the gif

Ah, I got it.
To select multiple block, I shold release after each block selection.

It may need to implement something like:

• Get cursor position on OneNote in the monitor, and move the mouse cursor there
• Ctrl-Down and mouse click (keep their down)
• Define character width (could be taken from OneNone's information...? though, most of fonts have different width for different characters...) and move the mouse cursor 1 width by l or any movement keys.
• Need to remember how many characters it moves.
• When d or any line change command comes, release mouse, and change the line, move back number of characters moved above, then click down, move forward the same number of characters
• If h or any backward key is pushed,...

Although it is interesting and it may be possible,
I'm sory but I cannot make enough time for it.
