I think I figured it out. It appears that there are some options for sighted users that saves visual space on the screen and the keyboard commands vary with how that is set.
There is a button called "Ribbon options submenu". To get to it, arrow once right past the Customize Toolbar button. Tabbing might also get you there. On that, you can check whether to show the upper ribbon (called the tabs), or the lower ribbon "called the tabs and commands". Check the option you want by hitting enter on it. From my test, you want to show the tabs and commands so that, when you open the home ribbon, you need just tab once to get to the options. If you choose to only display the tabs, then you would hit Alt to open the ribbon, then you'd have to hit space to select the tab you want prior to hitting tab to go to the lower ribbon with all the command options. Hope this makes sense. -----Original Message----- From: Talk <talk-bounces+robin_van_lant=key....@lists.window-eyes.com> On Behalf Of Ayers, David (ITCS) via Talk Sent: Friday, April 5, 2019 12:40 PM To: t...@window-eyes.com Cc: Ayers, David (ITCS) <aye...@co.tioga.ny.us> Subject: Outlook 2016 Ribbon Hello, I pressed something in Outlook 2016 that messed up the ribbon menu drop down options. When I press the alt key, under 'Home', I would get the options for a new message, reply, forward, etc. Now I only get the option to customize toolbar. Does anyone know how I can get my options back?
