Printing just a document, w/o comments or revisions, requires going to Print dialog > Microsoft Word and set "Print what:" to "Document".

This has caused me more than once to inadvertently waste a lot of paper, by printing a document that's unusable for its intended audience. And, the print setting does not persist from document to document, nor even from one editing session to another in the same document.

Better would be to have this setting default to off. Best would be to have it default to off and also make it one of the checkboxes on Preferences > Print, or some similar approach.

After the latest Office update, every time I open an Office app, I am presented with a window with the heading, "Share how you use Office" and given two choices: "Full diagnostic data" and "Basic diagnostic data." However, I don't wish to automatically share any diagnostic data, although there is no option for that. However, I am not forced to make a choice, as I can simply click the red "X" to close the window and continue to use Office as normal. The problem is this window pops up every time I open an Office app. Since this is obviously not required, please add an option to NOT share diagnostic data in order to permanently dismiss this window.

Outline View is one of the most powerful ways to organize large amounts of structured text in Word.

Until the last update to Microsoft Word for Mac v16.16, it was possible to display images in Outline View if the document was saved as .doc but not .docx - already a strange limitation. Now, with the latest update, no downgrade!, you have broken this as well. For me this means, I cannot work with the latest lousy version and have to revert. At the very least, you should be upfront about which important features you break with an alleged upgrade. You managed to break customizable icons a while back (still not remedied because the supposed fix stingily requires 365).

If you actually want to make Word better, it's not wizardry to display images in Outline View. You showed that yourself in previous versions. Make them visible. There's no good reason to just show a ghost block instead of the image (see screenshot below).

There is some indication that Office for Mac 2019 will only support the latest current release of macOS plus the previous operating system. This is a formal request from an Enterprise admin to have Microsoft provide support for the current macOS operating system plus the two previous operating systems.

Apple has been absolutely horrendous in documenting and providing the appropriate management tools to deal with major restrictions they've been adding to macOS. This makes it much more difficult to deploy the latest macOS release on day 1. As an example, the majority of our users are still on macOS 10.12 and we are just getting to deploy macOS 10.13 (almost a year later). And that's not for lack of trying or testing.

Currently, user has no way to hide screentips. For example, if the Style Pane is showing, when user runs mouse over the various styles in the verticle list, huge screentips obscure the list forcing to the user to keep moving the mouse around to find one. Similarly, the ribbon sometimes has screentips that appear with the name of the button that is already clearly labeled in the ribbon.

Please give the user the ability to at least hide all screentips in MS Word for Mac.

As a bonus, give user the ability to hide certain kinds of screentips.

Most applications I have used allow this flexibility for a good reason.
