Summary

One of the most convenient features of Microsoft Word is the ability to customize the tools that you work with. This article describes how you can customize and create toolbars and toolbar buttons. You can customize any toolbar by adding, deleting, moving, or grouping toolbar buttons to suit your needs.

Microsoft Word includes several built-in toolbars, including the two default toolbars that are visible when you start Word: the Standard toolbar and the Formatting toolbar. The Standard toolbar includes command buttons with which you can quickly access many of the frequently used commands, such as Save, Open, Copy, and Paste. The Formatting toolbar provides quick access to text-formatting commands, including Bold, Italic, Underline, Numbering, and Bullets.

To see a list of available toolbars, point to Toolbars on the View menu. The available toolbars appear on the Toolbars submenu. The toolbars that are currently visible in the Word window are selected (check marks appear next to them). To view and use a toolbar, you must select it on the Toolbars submenu. To select it (make it visible on the Word screen), click the toolbar name.

Note Creating and customizing menus in Word is similar to the way that you create and customize your toolbars.

How to add a button to an existing toolbar

To add a button to an existing toolbar, use one of the following methods.

Method 1: Use the customize command on the toolbars submenu

  1. On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Customize.

    Note You can also open the Customize dialog box by clicking Customize on the Tools menu.

  3. Click a category to change the list of commands that appear in the Commands box, on the right side of the Customize dialog box.

  4. To add a button to a toolbar that is displayed, drag the button from the Commands box to the toolbar.

Standard toolbars in Office 2011 for Mac behave like some Web browser toolbars and are incorporated into the document window. By default, you encounter the Standard toolbar beneath the menu bar.

Here’s a look at the standard toolbar in Office 2011 for Mac and what you’ll find on it:

The first few controls aren’t really part of the Standard toolbar because they show up even if you hide this toolbar. However, we still cover them here:

  • Window Controls: The upper-left corner of each window contains the standard Close button (red), Minimize button (yellow), and the Zoom button (green).

  • Title: The title is also the filename associated with the window. In this sample, it’s called Document2.

  • Show/Hide button or toolbar: This button toggles the visibility of the toolbar on and off. Sooner or later, you may accidentally click this button and hide your toolbars. Click this button to restore your toolbars.

  • New, Templates, Open, and Save options: These icons to the extreme left of the Standard toolbar allow you to make new files, display the Word Document Gallery, and open files in Finder. It also allows you to save your files.

  • Print: This icon allows you to print some or all of your content to a connected physical printer, or in many cases a virtual printer driver that saves to PDF files.

  • Undo and Redo: These icons allow you to return to how your file was a few clicks ago, or redo something you just did.

  • More controls: If you resize the window to be smaller or customize a toolbar and put more controls onto it than can be easily displayed, a chevron appears at the right end of the toolbar. Click the chevron to display controls that don’t fit in the toolbar.

People who switch from Office 2007 or 2010 for Windows can think of the Standard toolbar as analogous to the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) because it’s always available and can be customized to your needs. Folks who switch from Office 2003 and earlier for Windows are already familiar with the Standard toolbar.
