Per its name, this option completely fills the screen with your document, centered against your choice of background - assorted wood grains, brushed aluminum, leather, same as you get in Publishing Layout View and Notebook View.

Full Screen View, a new feature accessed via View>Full Screen or by clicking on an icon in the lower left corner of the screen, is a significant alternative to Publishing Layout View (which remains available). That opens a left-hand sidebar listing all occurrences of my search term, in context, and offers me varying views thereof and multiple action options. If I want to do a search/replace, I click on the down arrow next to the magnifying-glass icon to select Replace (or I can use Shift-Command-H - the H, presumably, for Habit, old, break). The keystroke combination for Find, Command-F, which I've used for more than a decade (so it's hardwired into the wetware) now jumps me to a search field with a Spotlight-like look, always open on the right-hand side of Office's Standard toolbar. I turned off the Formatting toolbar for just that reason.ħ. Conversely, if you find the Ribbon to your liking you can probably reclaim some space at the top of your screen by hiding your toolbar(s), most of whose functions come embedded in one or another tab on the Ribbon. (I assume the introduction of the Ribbon accounts for the ribbon-ish new icons for the W, X, P, and O of Office's four apps.)Ħ. And you can make it go away completely in Preferences. You can shrink it a bit by checking the Hide Group Titles option in Ribbon Preferences.

In fully expanded form, it does occupy a fair amount of screen real estate - a half-inch on my 15-inch MacBook Pro - but I think it's worth it, especially as it's easy enough to compress. The Ribbon, a horizontal mega-toolbar that provides quicker access to a wide range of functions previously tucked away and difficult to access, opens and collapses with a single mouse click. Furthermore, through the Gallery you now connect automatically to Microsoft's growing stash of thousands of additional templates online.ĥ.

The Macintosh Business Unit ( MacBU) has added new templates to the Gallery, and revamped many of the previous templates. And the Gallery has become much more versatile you can resize those thumbnails, get file info, even revise palettes and fonts therein on the fly, prior to opening a template.Ĥ. Templates in the Document Gallery now display as hi-res thumbnail versions of themselves, rather than repeated versions of a bland generic icon. Where Word for Mac 2008 chugged along, often with the dreaded beachball of death spinning, this iteration races.ģ. Click on its icon and you're in and writing. After you boot it up once or twice, this sucker opens fast. Easy install, and easy import of all my settings.Ģ.
