Hi, is it just me, or does not having tabs in most Microsoft Office products, including Word and PowerPoint etc a bit primitive?
I know you can have tabs in Excel, kind of, but it would be nice if MS stole the idea of tabs, like they did with IE from Firefox and built this into all of their office software.
I'm a college student and I frequently have several documents open at the same time, it's frustrating to not just quickly flip between them like I can with my browser. I know there's Flip 3D and probably a keyboard shortcut. But the same argument could be made for not introducing tabs in Web Browsers. Why do it? Because it makes life a little bit simpler is why!
Please MS steal this idea! If anyone has any influence with them and wants to steal it instead, please feel free!
There is a 3rd party add on that enables this feature I believe, but it seems to be quite buggy and unstable. So other people have clearly at least thought about it!
