Change the choose font list display... I have just started to use Office 2007 Professional and I cannot find the option to change the display of the font list. In Office XP there was an option (from 'Tools/Customize/Options' Other) to 'List font names in their font'. [This option is also in Publisher 07, but it does not seem to have a global effect through the rest of the suite!] Is there an option to configure this with the Office 2007 suite? I cannot find anything even close in the help file! Any help greatly appreciated (PS. I realize i have posted this message in menus & customization.. so no flaming ;) Thanks in advance Ivan.
Hi Ivan, If you're asking if the option to turn off the choice to show the previews in plain text is still available for the Word 2007 font drop down on the ribbon then the answer is no. The 'plain text' list is available from the Font dialog (launch button on the lower right of the 'Font' group on the Home ribbon). Basically ribbon galleries all show items in 'real' preview. =============== <<"Ivan" wrote in message news:fkck54l70nfihr5ktnfegbpnqs99bsujlr@4ax.com... Change the choose font list display...

Hi My understanding of toolbars was if you displayed a toolbar it remianed open until you choose to hide it. This certainly works with Mail mMerge and Drawing toolbars. However, with the Outlining toolbar, I have to redisplay it every time I start Word. Whne you close Word it seems to hide the toolbar again. Is there anyway that I can configure Word to automatically display the Outlining toolbar. Thanks

The Outlining toolbar is more closely associated with the Outline view. If you want it to show on starting Word in other views, then add the following line to an Autoexec macro in normal. dot CommandBars("Outlining").Visible = True and/or add a macro to a toolbar button to toggle the display of the bar on and off thus: With CommandBars("Outlining") .Visible = Not .Visible End With http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Sally Green wrote: > Hi > > My understanding of toolbars was if you displayed a toolbar it > remianed open until you choose to hide it.
