Change Ribbon Tabs by hovering

[AmidaTong]

I was a bit disoriented by the ribbon tab at first, but I'm starting to like
it. The one detail that I'm dying for is the ability to change ribbon tabs
simply by hovering over the one you want.

The ideal user would know exactly where each function/command is located,
but getting acclimated to the new interface is tedious. Compare my request
with the ability to click a drop-down menu and change by hovering.

The "ribbon" is the new! menu system used in Excel 2007.

Hi Biff,
Thx for the info.

Personally, I do not like the new Ribbon tab. They should provide an option
to switch between the old and new style of toolbar.
