Floating font toolbar customize?
Hello,
When I type in Word 2007, a floating font toolbar appears. I like this, however, I was wondering if there's a way to customize this floating toolbar. For instance... I'd like to add a button to it to format text as "strikethrough". Any suggestions? Thanks. |

You can assign a keyboard shortcut to the Strikethrough command by going to Office Button Word Options Customize Keyboard shortcuts Customize, selecting the "All Commands" category, and locating Strikethrough in the list of commands. There is, of course, a strikethrough button in the Font group of the Home ribbon, and you can add it to the Quick Access Toolbar by right-clicking it and choosing that option. But there isn't a way to get the button closer to the editing location. There are lots of other formatting commands that people might want to put on the Floatie (the unfortunately abandoned name it had during the beta tests), but it's verboten. Some of the reasoning behind this is in Jensen Harris's blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/jensenh/archiv...27/648269.aspx and http://blogs.msdn.com/jensenh/archiv...02/542118.aspx. You may not agree with him, but now it is what it is. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
