Also, all the existing page templates show up as white regardless of their original color.

Correction: Using the macro, some darker background colors work, some do not.

Hi,
Thanks for this. Unfortunately, it seems to have disabled all page coloring in my Onenote 2016 Win 7-64. Removing the macro does not restore any page coloring. View, Page color now shows a square with 16 white boxes instead of the original pastels. This macro has no impact on page colors. I've run a full repair on Onenote to no avail. Please advise. Thanks.
Best regards,
Bego
