OneNote 2016 will not run & Annotate disabled in Word & PowerPoint

Hi,
I am using a trial version of CrossOver for Ubuntu 18.10 and Office 2016 (365) provided by my university.
When I start OneNote I get the error "install the Desktop Experience before you start OneNote".
Also, the Annotate feature for Word and, more importantly, PowerPoint are disabled (greyed out); In Windows I used to be able to use with my touch screen (despite not having a high-quality active stylus) or, on my laptop using the mouse. I use it to make notes on slides or for highlighting.

Without these features, there is little difference from simply using LibreOffice.

Please assist,
Thanks 😊
