Ian S. Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Just wanted to let everyone know who didn't get a change to sign up, I can see the link now: https://connect.microsoft.com/office/Office%20Consumer%20Technical%20Preview Remember, the product's current status is: NDA Non-Disclosure Agreement, so it is not open for chatting and sharing screenshots. Until then this thread should not be used to discuss topics about the products and features, except when another news source reports it. What can Program Participants expect from Microsoft? Early access to the next version of Office 365 Desktop (including Project and Visio if you are an active subscriber of these products) Support for this program will be peer to peer via the Discussion group What Are The Program Participation Requirements? Participants will need an active Office 365 subscription Participants will install and use the latest version of the product during the program Participants will watch training webcasts, either live or recorded Participants will complete surveys and provide feedback However, Office Universal (touch-first) can be open for discussion!

PGHammer Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Feel the rainbow, Taste the rainbow!! That is actually a new Office theme called Colorful. (Just the thing to wake up that dull-as-dishwater co-worker one cube over.) I can't see most folks using it as an everyday theme - however, it does make for a good switch-up.

siah1214 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Anyway to force the original office preview to update to the latest one? I don't want to download a leaked one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link6155 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Anyway to force the original office preview to update to the latest one? I don't want to download a leaked one. Join the preview version and download the officesetup file. Once you have that just select the update option and it should work. zhangm 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siah1214 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Worked great, thanks. I love the new colorful theme. They should have done that ages ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link6155 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I think Office 2016 desktop will eventually look like it's counterpart on Android and Windows 10: Notice how the titlebar is colorful just like the current build of Office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio384 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 It's probably going to be the Office Touch apps that are going to get a look closer to Office 2016, at least for the general design of the heading. neo158 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian W Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Why isn't Outlook orange? I think Office 2016 desktop will eventually look like it's counterpart on Android and Windows 10: Notice how the titlebar is colorful just like the current build of Office. Oh heavens no. Too much functionality appears to be removed from the Ribbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted March 17, 2015 Supervisor Share Posted March 17, 2015 Why isn't Outlook orange? they changed outlook to blue in office 2013 I personally never understood the reason for the color change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian S. Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 they changed outlook to blue in office 2013 I personally never understood the reason for the color change Because Hotmail >> Outlook.com was Orange to Blue and the mail app on Windows 8 is blue.
