The ribbon is far more productive as it is at least discoverable without much effort.
Most people have no idea what the toolbar buttons do. To find out you have to play mystery meat with tooltips for ages.
- RobAley 13y agoWe have a mix of Windows machines with MS Office and Ubuntu machines with LO here for our admin staff (with each staff member using both for different tasks), and I get far more questions about how to find things in the MS ribbon than I do in the LO menus (and LO tends to be used for more complicated operations, it part of a high-speed scanner / data work-flow system).
- sampo 13y ago> Most people have no idea what the toolbar buttons do. But one doesn't need to use the toolbar buttons, one can still select things from the menus in the old fashioned way.
- harrytuttle 13y agoCan still do that with the ribbon. Press Alt.
- desas 13y agoMost people have no idea that that is possible. To find out you have to play mystery meat with keys for ages.
