Personalize Office 2010

  • Article

In Microsoft® Office 2010, the enhanced FluentUI (previously known as the Ribbon) is available across all the applications, including OneNote® 2010, SharePoint® Workspace 2010 (formerly known as Microsoft Office Groove), Publisher 2010, InfoPath 2010 and even the new Office Web Apps. 

In Office 2010 we have now made it possible to customize the Ribbon allowing you get the commands you use most in one personalized tab. Set it up for each application and all the features you need will be right at your fingertips (or mouse cursor as the case may be).

Step by Step:

1. Click the Office Button to enter the Backstage view.  There, select Options from the lowest tab on the left.

4. Position your tab anywhere you like on the Ribbon—it can be the first tab you see, or the last.

5. Click on the Rename button and in the Display name box, assign a name to the tab and click ok.
