Microsoft
announced its latest version of their office suite application, Office
2013, or the new Office.This latest Office comes with many page
improvements and under skin improvements lets take a look at them.
The
biggest change that we notice is the change in its icons,look like
windows 8 tiles to me,it has also got some tilted prospective in it. The
UI is also changed to the latest Windows 8 style. However, the
application isn't made entirely with the Metro UI because later it will
be running within the desktop mode in Windows 8.
Other new noticeable
additions include stylus support for scribbling on the screen like we
usually do paint, integrated SkyDrive, Skype and Yammer support, and a
lot more.This Office is specifically designed for touch screens hence
the UI is optimized for touches. Still, it is disappointing to see how
little optimization has been done, as most of the buttons in the UI
still look like they are designed for a keyboard and mouse, and the
early previews mention the same.
