The latest release of Office is totally redesigned to make it easier for the end user to find and use the tools they need to accomplish their tasks. The new Office 2007 design goal is for the new user interface is to make it easier for people to find and use the full range of features the applications provide. It is also designed to preserve an uncluttered workspace that reduces distraction for users. Office 2007 offers many new features:
The Ribbon
The traditional menus and toolbars have been replaced by the Ribbon, a new device that presents commands organized into a set of tabs. The tabs on the Ribbon display the commands that are most relevant for each of the task areas in the applications.
The Microsoft Office Button
The new user Office interface brings together the capabilities of the Office system into a single entry point in the user interface, the Microsoft Office Button. The Microsoft Office button helps users find these valuable features and simplifies the core authoring scenarios by allowing the Ribbon to focus on creating great documents.
Contextual Tabs
Contextual tabs only appear when they are needed and make it much easier to find and use the commands needed for the operation at hand. Contextual tabs bring needed functionality to the user's attention at the most appropriate time.
Galleries
Galleries provide users with a set of clear results to choose from when working on their document, spreadsheet, presentation, or Access database. Galleries simplify many operations by presenting a set of results that users can simply select to achieve the desired results.
Live Preview
Live Preview shows the results of applying an editing or formatting change as the user moves the pointer over the results presented in a Gallery. This new, dynamic capability streamlines the process of laying out, editing, and formatting so users can create excellent results with less time and effort.
Mini Toolbar
The Mini toolbar pops up near the selected text whenever some text is selected and provides easy access to most used formatting commands. When the mouse pointer is away from it, the toolbar becomes semi-transparent but when the mouse pointer moves over it, it becomes ready for use.
Themes and Quick Styles
Document Theme defines the colors, fonts and graphic effects for a document. Almost everything that can be inserted into a document is automatically styled to match the overall document theme creating a consistent document design.
