This is done so as to not leave extra white space within the ribbon.Įxcel for Mac 2011 loses the early OS X feel and transitions to the iTunes-like interface, with smaller fontsand sharper corners. As you stretch the window out, you will notice that the ‘Format’ section of the Home Tab expands to reveal additional formats.
Also just like Word, Excel for Mac 2011 allows you to hover over the icon to see what the icon represents.Įxcel 2011 sees the return of the ribbon across the entire width of the window.

Of course, there a slew of text editors and a few presentations suites, and email clients are a dime a dozen, but spreadsheet programs are much rarer.Įxcel for Mac 2011 has undergone a toolbar transition.

Just like I stated in my Word for Mac 2011 review, I don’t use Office for Mac that much, and I don’t like using it at work either.
