Mac Forum / Applications / Word / April 2008reposition up and down arrows
Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Processor: intel I would like the up arrow to be on top of the vertical scroll bar and the down arrow to be at the bottom. How can I change the position of those arrows. THANKS! You use Help>Send Feedback to ask Microsoft to change it for you in the next version. (In other words, you can't). They recently changed to this layout from the previous layout because users wanted the two arrows closer together...

John McGhie, Microsoft MVP, Word and Word:Mac Nhulunbuy, NT, Australia. mailto:john@mcghie.name Anyone: Does the two-arrows-at-top-plus-two-arrows-at-bottom feature that Onyx will enable work correctly in Word 2008? That might satisfy the OP plus anyone else watching. Can't check it myself because I don't yet have Word 2008.

Go to Apple Menu> System Preferences> Appearance & choose the option for Place Scroll Arrows: At Top & Bottom. Note that this will affect sceoll arrow position in all programs, not just Word.

I never thought to look there :-) That's one I don't think they have on the dark side :-) Cheers On 28/04/08 12:37 PM, in article C43AB7BE.39D40%onlygeneraltaz1@com.cast.net, "CyberTaz" <onlygeneraltaz1@com.cast.net> wrote: > Not an application issue - it's set by the OS. > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] >> arrow to be at the bottom.

John McGhie, Microsoft MVP, Word and Word:Mac Nhulunbuy, NT, Australia. mailto:john@mcghie.name Don't tell me you two are not even tempted to check out the two-arrows-at-both-ends feature via Onyx? Just as well -- it's one of those things that you end up wondering how you did without, and I wouldn't want to pull you presumptuously out of the Dark Pool of Unawareness on this. John? Bob? You aren't there for me, are you? :-\ So be it. I only give away things like that every two years... Um, I forgot that System prefs setting too.

Hello Clive - we're here, we're just ignoring you;-) Actually, I've neglected to keep updated with Onyx on my G5 - which is a bit on the fritz right now, so I have been reluctant to introduce anything new under 10.4.11 - and I just haven't had the need to make the time to put it on my MBP as yet... It lost its luster once the crons got rerouted as I never really used it for other purposes.

Please do NOT email me unless I ask you to. John McGhie, Microsoft MVP, Word and Word:Mac Nhulunbuy, NT, Australia. mailto:john@mcghie.name Oynx is not a Haxie. Its a systems utility similar to disk Utility but with other UNIX features added. a lot of them are just a Graphical interface for UNIX commands hiding the dangerous ones from you so you can't royally screw up your system. > We don't DO haxies here, you Philistine, you!!
