The addition of artistic filters is also a welcome touch. When users add photos, they can now make simple edits, such as crop or even auto-format to make sure the image fits the given space properly. It begins with a pruned and unified interface across all the apps: Regardless of whether you're adding music, photos, or videos, you'll go to the same media browser, which has neat tabs for each of these categories. Taking a similar approach as it did with Office 2010 for Windows, about which Microsoft said that photos and videos would become "first-class citizens" in documents, the company has made it easier to add and then edit multimedia in Office docs on Macs. This reminds us of the search bar that Firefox has in the same location. Additionally, there's a convenient bar in the upper right-hand corner of every Office program that allows you to search the document. You can also go to the View tab at the very top of the screen to customize whether other onscreen items, such as a Ruler, appear. If this abundance of icons gets visually overwhelming-and it can, for those used to Apple's cleaner interfaces-you can double click a tab to hide them.

As with Office on our Windows machine, getting used to the Ribbon was a bit of an adjustment, but we quickly figured out how to locate the features we use most often.

Unlike the PC version, however, you can't customize which icons appear or in what order. There's also a row of commonly used icons, which sits above the Ribbon tabs. This is mostly a smart way of helping users be aware of the suite's growing list of features, and finding them in a hurry. The idea is that rather than navigate through a menu tree, you can see all of your relevant choices, and just click on the one you want. Publishing via OneDrive, presumably, is Microsoft's answer, though it's not quite the same.When you click on one of these tabs, you'll see a kitchen sink of icons.

MICROSOFT OFFICE 2011 FOR MAC MOVIE
The option of saving a presentation as a movie is gone, irritatingly, which, in combination with the dropping of the broadcast feature, serves to break some useful ways of sharing presentations with a wider audience.

Sharing presentations between Mac and Windows should be smoother too, since Office 2016 for Mac now supports the transitions from Office 2013 on Windows. The Presenter View – showing you, say, next and current slides as well as a timer and notes on your laptop screen, while an external display shows just the presentation – is better if nothing else, the one button to let you quickly switch the displays is a boon. PowerPoint gets threaded comments for document reviewing as well, like Word, and an improved conflict resolution view makes it easier to compare differences between versions. What's more, combined with clever variants and colour themes, there are actually many more options – and they hang together well in terms of the visuals. The most apparent new change in PowerPoint, other than the refreshed interface, is the inclusion of 23 smart, less comically corporate templates. Note, though, that the option in Office 2011 to broadcast a PowerPoint presentation online is gone.

However, as we observed in our full review, the collaboration behaviour is inconsistent. OneDrive also helps power collaboration – documents all have a handy share button at the top right – letting you share documents with others for them to view or edit. Microsoft's equivalent of iCloud Drive, OneDrive, is now baked in – so you can toggle (a little inelegantly) between the standard OS Open/Save dialogue box and one focused on your cloud documents – and it's through OneDrive online that you can access previous versions of files. There's finally support for some now quite longstanding OS-level features, such as multi-touch gestures for zooming, and native full-screen mode. This might mean a bit of relearning for Mac users, but the groupings, such as the new Design tab in Word, do make sense. The Ribbon that runs across the top of windows has been slightly reorganised, making it more consistent with Office 2013 on Windows – see the image above for a comparative shot of the Ribbon on Mac, Windows and iPad. While this will look familiar to Windows users, it's a thoroughly Mac aesthetic. Even Office 2011 supported Retina displays, but the entire interface in 2016 has been dramatically modernised – it no longer feels dated on a modern Mac system, and the (optional) coloured toolbars help orientate you in the suite. Looking over the entire suite, the most obvious difference with this new version of Office, if you've been used to the 2011 edition, is the new interface design.
