How do I change the display of my ribbon?

Aside from customizing the ribbon, you can also change which information shows on the ribbon.  To change the ribbon display, select the Ribbon Display Optionsbutton in the top right corner of the ribbon.  Three options are available:

  • Auto-hide Ribbon: This will hide the ribbon entirely. Click at the top of the application to show it whenever it's needed. 
  • Show Tabs: This will show the ribbon tabs only (the blue bar across the top).  Click a tab to show the commands.
  • Show Tabs and Commands: Show the ribbon tabs (the blue bar across the top) and commands (the gray bar below the blue bar) all the time.
