How can I switch off auto-hide ribbon (Quick Access Toolbar)
in [Beginners]

From: ICTag on 15 Mar 2010 13:40 Somehow I accidentally pressed the wrong key combination and now the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) disappears whenever I click on the document itself with the mouse and I can no longer work efficiently. Clicking on any menu brings up the QAT again but I want it to display permanently. I've searched a) "display" menu b) Word options c) online help with no success. Any ideas how to switch this auto-hide off?

From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 15 Mar 2010 14:49 You can also press Ctrl+F1 or double-click any of the Ribbon tabs. But note that the QAT shouldn't be hidden when you minimize the Ribbon even it is still above the Ribbon. So there may be something else going on here if the QAT is actually hidden. -- Suzanne S.

From: Stefan Blom on 15 Mar 2010 15:01 I was confused by the description, too, but the subject does indicate that it is, after all, about the ribbon. Only the OP can tell for certain of course! -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S.
