Minimising or Maximising the Ribbon

To free up more screen space, the ribbon can be minimised so that only the tabs are showing.

2.     Select Minimize the Ribbon.

Only the ribbon tab names are now showing but if a tab is selected, the Ribbon maximises to allow the selection of a command and then minimises once the command is selected.

  2. Select Maximize the Ribbon.
