If the computer is equipped with a mouse, the ribbon, a special tool for quickly formatting text, can also be displayed. With the exception of the ribbon, all these tools are accessible by either mouse or the familiar function key combinations. Within each mode you can select which tools you want displayed. Although these tools may seem confusing to the uninitiated, with practice you can quickly develop some facility and speed up document preparation. WordPerfect's graphics capabilities are a strong contender for most improved feature.
Coaches are innovative interactive tutorials.
Unlike traditional online help that only provides descriptions and examples of a particular function, coaches let you perform the function while you are taking the tutorial. The Merge feature has been significantly improved and simplified. Addresses from merged documents and from individual letters can be automatically added to envelopes. The drag and drop feature allows you to quickly reposition a text block or graphic to another location. You can use the mouse to click on a graphic or block of text and then move or drag it to another location in the document.
