WTF, Microsoft? Everything is much prettier now but I don't give a shit about that when simple commands like "Undo" are so hard to find.

Now 1/2 the page is missing from the undo. Fuck you, MS. Who tested this shit?

CLICK ON THE GLOWING JEWEL IN THE UPPER LEFT

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #2 on:** August 19, 2007, 12:02:51 AM »

Thanks but I just figured it out. You have to click the two little arrows going in circles to do redos and undos. It's unintuitive as fuck since you see a big old list of what you've done and both arrows are also going counter-clockwise. Why can't they just do a simple undo of one alteration like they always do?

Progress never happens if things dont change, get used to change :p

Also smart people know Ctrl+Z

jesus christ people.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #4 on:** August 19, 2007, 12:34:54 AM »

i never noticed, i always use ctrl+z (undo) and ctrl+y (redo)

Im not a big fan of keystrokes, but those are two of the most important

Ouch! MAF? More like MDF. Should have known better than to get caught in the middle of a MS circle jerk. You guys sure know not to bite the hand that feeds you. Now I know what Jotaro feels like. :'(

I just want my simple right-click commands. I don't want to remember all those ctrl+ commands. This ain't Street Fighter, why should I be expected to remember any commands?

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #10 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:31:20 AM »

I've never used the undo menu command, no matter where ive worked. There's just faster ways to do things.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #11 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:41:22 AM »

I know how to use Ctrl+ F.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #12 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:46:21 AM »

How about Alt+F4

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #13 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:50:15 AM »

No. I guess I fail the hardcore MS operator quiz.

I just tested it out. Were you trying to screw me over into closing the doc by accident?

There's still a safety question about saving, you know?

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #14 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:52:24 AM »

its an old internet joke. someone would come into irc asking how to make a program do something, someone would say alt+f4, lolz ensue

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #15 on:** August 19, 2007, 02:00:29 AM »

that is pretty funny. I'll be pissed if I close a program and I didn't save my work.

a few companies came up with modules that restore the old menu system for office 2k7. I don't know what ms was thinking when they came up with this.

Of course the MS boys will suck company teat. They're getting PAID to.

I've found nothing but headaches with my experiences with 2007. What 'progress' or whatever was made by making Word look ass backwards?

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #21 on:** August 20, 2007, 06:50:02 PM »

I get paid to do my job. Don't be a little bitch.

Progress requires THAT NEW THINGS OCCUR, and that people who are willing to push for change learn to adapt, and in turn also learn to push away what they dont like. Faulting anyone for trying something new in the tech industry is just kinda sad.

Just dont use it, no need to grab yer torches and pitforks and run around screaming egad bad program!

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #22 on:** August 20, 2007, 06:52:21 PM »

stop trying to get MAF in trouble. His boss is monitoring this.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #23 on:** August 20, 2007, 06:54:36 PM »

I am open to change, I am willing to dig deeper into issues to discover what I really dont like about something. SURE, I COULD stare at the big button in the corner and go WTF?!??!?! Then get some friends and we can all foolishly stare at the button and go WTF?!?!?!? but does that CHANGE anything or influence progress? No.

I love measured criticism, I dont like discussions that reek of videogame console wars.

Are any of these available online?

I thought "Help" was there for a reason. Or why not follow the guide. 2k7 is pretty awesome.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #26 on:** August 20, 2007, 06:56:36 PM »

Where DOES one download anything anymore. Download.com seems a joke these days.

seriously. read any slashdot article about office pre-2k7. "lol microsoft, same old shit they been selling us for the past 15 years. lol monopoly lol lack of innovation. why don't they do something new, like a new interface even?"

Microsoft just can't win with most computer nerds. they're either evil, unoriginal, stupid, bullish or a combination.

I like the new look of Microsoft Office 2007.
