Resonates.

macOS also has a menu bar search feature in the help menu. Used it a couple times on apple’s own numbers. Worked quite well.
- paulmooreparks 3y agoMicrosoft Office features a search box at the top of each application where one may search for a feature (for example, "tables") and a drop-down selection is presented as the user types.
- eviks 3y agoOffice has a similar search bar (though it should move to the center of the screen instead of being in the corner), and it's great, but the huge benefit of ribbons is progressive key chords with visual feedback that, when memorized, provide much faster, and guaranteed access to a given function (search bar can have multiple matches, so you can't be certain that typing a word and hitting enter will result in something) (mac's search menu bar is worse as it's not typo-resistant, doesn't allow arrow up/down right away when the text box is focused, and includes various "Help" junk instead of showing nothing if you can't find anything)
