Simple drag the picture to your document and you are done! I really liked this feature.Īlso new at the top of the document are 5 “tabs” that contain new “helper” features, some of which look as if they “borrowed” them right out of Pages. Best of all, clicking on the small icon of a camera displays your iPhoto library right inside the palette in a small, resizable thumbnail view much like iPhoto. The other 6 buttons across the top to change what this small window can display, and include the object, citations, scrapbook, reference tools, compatibility report, and project palettes.Īdding pictures, shapes and graphics to word got much easier using the object palette (see picture above, shown in picture mode.) It contains a large array of shapes, arrows, and callouts, as well as a large selection of clip art and symbols.

Strangely, it appears all these can be viewed as a toolbar item as well, so you have some choices on how to use the tools. The default palette contains things like Font, Styles, Alignment, Bullets and Numbering, Borders and Shading, and Margins.

Like it’s Windows counterpart, the “toolbox” has appeared, which is YET ANOTHER small, separate window that contains 7 new “palettes” of tools. Do not worry though, you can turn them all OFF, and as far as I can tell, almost everything is still available via menu items or the single tools palette. I am not sure why some were separated out while some were incorporated into the window itself. There are, however, still some toolbars that ONLY show up as separate windows (speech, background, color, movie, etc) and if you open them all, you are going to need a VERY big screen. While you can still select what “toolbars” you want to show in this version, they are now always attached to the document window itself, taking up space for the actual viewing of the document. Gone from Office 2008 are the individual, small, separate “window” toolbars you could select and drag to anywhere on the screen YOU liked. These “toolbars” are for common menu items like New, Open, Save, Print, etc. Most notably is the addition of “Vista like” icon buttons as part of the top of the document window.

It will look familiar if you are using Office 2004, but has a few differences. I started with Word, which is what I am writing this on now. By the way, if this thing annoys you as much as me, and you just want to get on with the application you selected, the next time it opens, click on the Settings tab, and uncheck the “Show Project Gallery at startup” box. (If you do not, tell me.) And strangely, it looks JUST like it did before. So tell me, really, does anyone out there truly use this? Do you really have issues with knowing which of the Office applications to launch for a given task? Sure, this gives you a place to start any application, just in case you opened the wrong one, but I think most of us know the difference between Excel, Word, Power Point and Entourage by now. It even has an application icon of it own now just in case you can’t get enough. Upon launching Word, I was still presented with that damn Microsoft Project box. Having waited almost four years for an update, I was truly hoping from something ground breaking, and at first look, I was not seeing it. But finally, with all the updated installed, I am ready to see just what Office 2008 (or version 12.0.1 as Microsoft calls it) has to offer.

OK, so the fix has finally arrived, but sadly not without some problems of it’s own (see Tim’s post and my post about problems actually getting the update to even work. But there was also talk of a major fix coming out in March that would solve all this, so I waited.

That is because I am still running on PPC machines, and the web was buzzing about just how buggy this product was on them.
