I would like to echo @Denise Vajdak, and amplify it. When we purchase Office 2019, this is the version of ON we are forced to use.
The previous non-Metro versions of ON have been very powerful and contained many granular options. Although I am aware of the obvious trajectory of MS moving ON to a touch-friendly version, it is really killing a lot of usefulness and causing a lot of frustration for the ON users who depended on the features of the past versions. The voice in this thread is unified, and we are simply asking that MS put some more heart in to ON and give us back the simple features that have made ON so great for us. When I mention "simple" I am referring to things like having the ability to modify a custom tag, modify the CTRL-# shortcut for the tag, etc. These are very simple things that should've been passed along to this version, especially since WE ARE PAYING FOR THIS PRODUCT!
