I have been working with Office 2013 (Office 365 to be precise) on Windows 8.1 for a couple of weeks now and noticed that it is missing a feature I used a lot in Office 2007.
The Undo and Redo buttons used to have drop-down menus, listing all changes the user made. In that list I could select a change I made and it would undo or redo everything up to that point. I can't remember if that was the default button in the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) or something I customized but it was there. My new office doesn't have the drop-down anymore. So when I want to undo 20 changes I have to click the button 20 times. I looked at costumizing the QAT and there is only one version of the undo button. In fact it looks as though it should have a drop-down list but I cannot see that once I back in the actual Word or Excel or whatever part of Office I am using. I have also seen screenshots of Office 2013 where the arrow for the drop-down list is clearly visible (for example on the Wikipedia screen shots.
Now I have 2 questions:
- Does the drop-down list feature still exist in Office 2013 / Office 365?
- Should it be there by default?
- How can I get the drop-down history list in my Office programs?
Any help would be much appreciated!
