I have the same problem. Very annoying. I sometimes have ten Word documents open at the same time, so the new desktop solution doesn't work very well for me. Any news on this issue? Thanks

Hi SextusEmpiricus,

  I don't think this will ever be solved. Problem has been here for years. MS just doesn't care about such specific Mac issues.

    This is not the place to get any changes made in Word nor the attention of developers at Microsoft. This is an independent user-to-user support forum. MS does not see anything you post here. The way to get their attention is through the feedback mechanisms.
    How do I give feedback on Microsoft Office?
    Word Feedback Portal – allows a public feedback that can be voted on
    Microsoft applications Feedback Portal (pick an application)
    Send Feedback to MS Developers
    Bonus Reading related to MS Feedback system
    My personal preference is to use the Word Feedback Portal. If you do, please get a share link and post it here so that others seeing this thread can go there and vote and comment. While you are there, check for other posts and feel free to vote and comment on those as well!
