How to Pin the Toolbar in Word

For writers, copywriters, and office workers, working in the Word text editor takes a lot of time. It is much more convenient to type texts if bookmarks and their contents are customized for a specific user. Not everyone knows how to pin the toolbar in Word. Setting up command buttons and tools is not a very difficult task.

Pin a new tab

On the new tab you can place the tools and quick access buttons you need for your work.

  1. To pin a new tab to the toolbar, click “File” and select “Options” at the bottom left.
  2. In the text editor options that open, select “Customize Ribbon”.
  3. The Customize Ribbon and Keyboard Shortcuts window appears. In it, click the “Create tab” button at the bottom. This window can be opened faster by right-clicking on the ribbon and selecting “Customize Ribbon...” from the context menu.

In Word 2010, a completely blank tab appears on the ribbon called New Tab. Now you can fill it with the necessary buttons and commands using the ribbon settings.

Adding buttons and commands

You can choose the combination of commands in a new tab at your discretion, regardless of their location in other tabs.

  1. Open the ribbon settings; on the left you can see a list of buttons and commands used when working with text.
  2. The right column contains buttons already displayed on the ribbon tabs; you can edit and pin new tools in each. To do this, a “New Group” is created in each tab.
  3. In the left column, select the required command, for example, “Create,” and in the right column, select the placement location. In our case it is “New Group (Custom)”. Word highlights the selected items in blue.
  4. Next, click the “Add” button in the middle of the page.

New commands can be seen on the ribbon tab; the fewer new tools, the larger they are.

You can move a tab to the right in “Ribbon Settings...” by clicking on it with the left mouse button and dragging it up or down.

Quick Access Toolbar

You can pin toolbar buttons that you use all the time to the Quick Access Toolbar. Moreover, add not only the items proposed by the developers, but also other text editing tools.

  1. Having opened the context menu of the Quick Access Toolbar, select “Other commands”
  2. A window with two columns will open. On the left you can select the required tool, on the right you can see the Quick Panel buttons.
  3. Having selected the required item on the right, click the “Add” button.

The more tabs and icons, the smaller they are, and they become inconvenient to use. Before you pin the toolbar in Word, you need to think through the functionality of the new commands.

How to get the toolbar back in Word

The Microsoft Word text editor is very functional. In addition to typing and designing text, here you can create various figures, graphs and tables, and perform several simple actions with drawings. Where are all the tools necessary for this? That's right, on the Toolbar.

It is located at the top of the page of an open document, and with Word 2007 on it you see not only tabs, but also the main buttons that are used for work. In this article, we will figure out what to do if the toolbar in Word has disappeared, and instead of the usual view, only the main names at the top are visible. I’ll also tell you about the quick access panel and how to add all the necessary buttons to it.

If the Word document you opened looks like the screenshot below, then to restore the toolbar, just click on the small arrow pointing down in the upper right corner of the window.

After this, all the usual groups and commands will be visible again. And if you need to leave only a sheet on the page, then you can hide the top ribbon by clicking on the same arrow, only now it points up. This can be used if you need nothing to distract you while working with a document.

If you have Word 2013 or 2016 installed, then to display the toolbar you need to click on the “Ribbon Display Options” button, which is located to the right of the file name, next to the minimize, full screen and close buttons.

After clicking, a small menu will open. The first item automatically hides the ribbon - the window expands to full screen and it hides; when you hover the cursor at the very top, it appears. When you click on the second item, only the menu items “Home”, “Insert”, “Design” and others will remain. If you choose the last option, then you will be able to secure not only the names of the items, but also the commands - this is actually what we need.

Now let's figure out what to do if it is not the control panel itself that has disappeared, but some tabs on it. Go to “File” at the top and select “Options” from the left list.

A window like this will open. Go to the Ribbon Customization tab.

For example, I didn’t have a “Developer” tab on the toolbar. So I put a tick in front of it. To save the changes made, click “OK”.

After this, the item we need will appear, and you can use all the commands that are in it.

In Word, in addition to the toolbar, there is also a quick access panel. You can add icons to it for the commands you use most often. It is displayed either below or above the ribbon. By default, it has three buttons: save, cancel or return.

To customize it, click on the little black arrow pointing down and select "More commands" from the list.

Look for the desired command in the list, select it by clicking the mouse, and then click “Add”.

Everything that is in the area on the right will appear in the Quick Access Toolbar.

If necessary, all items can be arranged in the order that suits you. To do this, select one and change its position using the up/down arrows on the right. To ensure that changes made in Word are saved for all other files, select “For all documents” in the top field. When finished, save by clicking "OK".

Removal follows a similar principle. Open a familiar window, select an unnecessary command and click “Delete”. Save by clicking “OK”.

That's all. Now you know not only how to get the hidden toolbar back, but also how to customize it and the quick access panel in Word.

Almost all users who have at least once opened the Word editor remember the program’s workspace: at the top there is a control panel with various sections and functions. After analyzing the sequence of user actions, the developers grouped the commands into separate blocks, thereby making it easier to find the required option. In this article we will tell you how to pin the toolbar in Word if it is “hidden” under a document.

The hidden tape mode is especially convenient to use on netbooks and laptops with a small screen. It allows you to increase the view of the page and not be distracted by unnecessary details.

Proven methods:

id="a1">
  • Method number 1: you can pin the toolbar in Word by double-clicking on the panel, and you can display it again in the same way.
  • Method number 2: near the quick access panel, which is responsible for saving the document and canceling actions, you will see an arrow, clicking on which will open the context list. By checking the box next to the “Collapse Ribbon” command, you will hide the panel, and by removing it, you will display it again.
  • Method number 3: right-clicking on any empty field will bring up a short list of commands, including “Collapse Ribbon”.

The state of the ribbon remains after closing the document, regardless of which of the listed methods you used. In the collapsed position, the menu will open commands when you hover the mouse over the required tab, and then “hide” the commands again.

Developers from Microsoft, starting with Office 2007, have radically changed the familiar application interface. Instead of the familiar list of menus, a whole ribbon appeared in Word.



At one time, many copies were broken in disputes about how convenient this innovation was. But the firm position of the designers of the most popular office suite, who included a similar interface in all newly developed programs, made all conversations pointless. I just had to calm down and learn to work with a new tool.

The ribbon has many customizable options. And one of them is the ability to collapse the menu into a small line when there is no mouse selection.


The function is convenient in principle, but for some it is a source of unnecessary irritation during operation. The ribbon constantly disappears from view; the user has to make unnecessary mouse movements to open it and select the necessary tool.


Knowing the features of Microsoft applications, it is clear that to change a parameter you need to check or uncheck the box. Let's look for where she could be.

Let's try right-clicking on the collapsed toolbar.



We now have a context menu that looks like this.



Now if you try to uncheck the “Collapse Ribbon” item, it will appear on the screen and remain there, even after clicking on the free space of the document.


The context menu will look like this.



As a result, the tape does not disappear anywhere, and you can concentrate on preparing the necessary document.

When a malfunction occurs in the operating system, not necessarily in Windows, the functionality of some programs sharply declines. For example, sometimes several panels disappear in the Firefox browser, making it difficult to navigate to a web page even using search engines.

You will need

  • - Internet browser Mozilla Firefox.

Instructions

When you launch your browser, you may find that the navigation bar, address bar, etc. are missing from the displayed panels. There are times when, due to a “lucky” coincidence, absolutely all the panels disappear. In such cases, you should not panic, reinstall your Internet browser, or, much worse, update the operating system version.

Almost all program presets can be changed through the settings menu, but what if this menu is not displayed. In the latest releases of the browser, this defect has been corrected, and when you press the Alt key, the top line of the menu appears. Once you release the key, the menu will disappear again.

Therefore, you need to hold down the Alt key, click on the “View” menu and select the “Toolbars” item. In the list that opens, you need to check the missing panels at the top of the browser. You can also change the arrangement of panels and individual icons by selecting the “Customize” item in the “Toolbars” menu item.

In the window that opens, you will have access not only to panels, but also to other icons (commands) that are not added to the browser by default in order to save space for displaying Internet pages. For example, if you use information from pages to quote in forums, Internet messengers or other means of communication, you can display elements of working with text (commands “paste”, “cut” and “copy”).

If you don’t remember exactly which panel was located and where, just click the “Restore” button in the open window and all panels will return to their previous location. You can also change the display of existing icons by adding captions to them or removing the icons, leaving only the text (the “Show” drop-down list). To finish working with the toolbar settings, click the “Close” button; restarting the browser is not required.

The taskbar contains the most important elements of the Windows graphical interface - the operating system main menu button, the notification area and icons of open application windows. The user can change the position, size and some aspects of its behavior. Sometimes this leads to not the most convenient options for placing the taskbar and it has to be returned to its original position.

Instructions

Before manipulating the taskbar, make sure it is not docked in its current position. To do this, right-click on the free space on it. In the pop-up menu there should not be a checkmark in the line “Pin the taskbar”, and if there is one, remove the checkmark by clicking on this inscription.

If the taskbar is positioned along the left, right, or top edges of the screen, you can simply drag it back down. Do this using the left mouse button, hovering over the free space of the panel.

In the latest versions of the operating system - for example, Windows 7 - it is possible to select the desired position in a drop-down list instead of dragging. It is placed in a separate window with settings for the properties of the taskbar and the Start menu - open this window by selecting “Properties” in the taskbar context menu. Select one of the four placement options in the list under “Taskbar position on screen” and click OK.

Sometimes, to return the taskbar to its place, it is enough to move the mouse pointer to the bottom border of the desktop. In the settings of this graphical interface element, you can set the command to hide it to save work space. In such cases, the panel pops up from the edge of the screen only when you move the mouse pointer to it or press the Win key. To cancel this setting, uncheck the “Automatically hide the taskbar” checkbox - it is placed in the same settings window, the call of which is described in the previous step.

Has the toolbar disappeared in Microsoft Word? What to do and how to get access to all those tools without which working with documents is simply impossible? The main thing is not to panic, just as it disappeared, it will return, especially since finding this loss is quite easy.

As they say, everything that isn't done is for the best, so thanks to the mysterious disappearance of the Quick Access Toolbar, you can learn not only how to get it back, but also how to customize the elements that appear on it. So let's get started.

If you are using Word 2012 or higher, you just need to click one button to return the toolbar. It is located in the upper right part of the program window and looks like an upward arrow located in a rectangle.

You press this button once, the disappeared toolbar returns, press it again - it disappears again. By the way, sometimes you really need to hide it, for example, when you need to concentrate entirely on the content of the document, and so that nothing unnecessary distracts.

This button has three display modes; you can select the appropriate one just by clicking on it:

  • Automatically hide the feed;
  • Show tabs only;
  • Show tabs and commands.

The name of each of these display modes speaks for itself. Choose the one that will be most convenient for you while working.

If you are using MS Word 2003 - 2010, to enable the toolbar you must perform the following manipulations.

1. Open the tab menu "View" and select "Toolbars".

2. Check the boxes next to the items that you need to work.

3. Now they will all appear on the Quick Access Toolbar as separate tabs and/or tool groups.

Enable individual toolbar items

It also happens that not the entire toolbar “disappears” (is hidden, as we have already figured out), but its individual elements. Or, for example, the user simply cannot find some tool, or even an entire tab. In this case, you need to enable (configure) the display of these very tabs on the quick access panel. This can be done in the section "Options".

1. Open a tab "File" on the quick access panel and go to the section "Options".

Note: In earlier versions of Word, instead of a button "File" there is a button "MS Office".

2. In the window that appears, go to the section "Customize the feed".

3. In the “Main Tabs” window, check the boxes next to the tabs that you need.

    Advice: By clicking on the plus sign next to the tab name, you will see lists of groups of tools that these tabs contain. By expanding the “pluses” of these items, you will see a list of tools presented in the groups.

4. Now go to the section "Quick Access Toolbar".

5. In section "Select commands from" select item "All teams".

6. Go through the list below, when you find the required tool there, click on it and press the button "Add" located between the windows.

7. Repeat the same step for all other tools that you want to add to the Quick Access Toolbar.

Note: You can also remove unnecessary tools by clicking the button "Delete", and sort their order using the arrows located to the right of the second window.

    Advice: In chapter "Customize the Quick Access Toolbar" located above the second window, you can choose whether the changes you make will be applied to all documents or only to the current one.

8. To close a window "Options" and save your changes, click the button "OK".

Now the quick access panel (toolbar) will display only the tabs you need, groups of tools and, in fact, the tools themselves. By properly setting up this panel, you can significantly optimize your working time, thereby increasing your productivity.
