As someone who doesn't even know MS Office well enough to know what I'm missing, what's unintuitive about LibreOffice to someone who knows MS Office?
- icegreentea2 3y agoLooks like OnlyOffice uses a ribbon UI that looks to be pretty well modeled on the MS Office pattern. Somewhat better preservation of muscle memory. I am not saying that Libreoffice has a worse interface (or really 'unintuitive').. Just more different from MS Office.
- lights0123 3y agoLibreOffice also offers one that's fairly decent, just not enabled by default. It has many other modes as well: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/01/Enable-ribbon-tabbed-view-in-LibreOffice.png https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/01/Enable-ribbon-tab...
- mixmastamyk 3y agoIt's quite intuitive if you learned on Office '97 or anything up to '07. If you learned on '07+, you might want a ribbon interface instead. But LO has that available; not sure how good it is.
