to big title bar in Office 365 update 2408
Hi all, since a couple of days I have to work with the ugly, annoying, awful, ... user interface in Office 365. The title bar size became horrible large. Compared with an explorer window from Win 10 it is nearly the double height. As an Office Poweruser (I'm working with the office products (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook) unluckily the whole day) I'm looking for smallen the title bar again. There was a registry hack, but on my machine this isn't working anymore. Because of the ribbon interface and a lot of not needed functions this is how my Quick Access Toolbars (QAT) are looking like: Now somebody could tell my, "OK, switch the QAT to the top, so that the title bar get more sense! Problem is, that the monochrome icons are absolutly boring AND especially for Word I can't differ between my macros, which I set with different colours. The title bar is smaller because of the standard buttons and the search field, so that not all my most loved commands have space here Dragging the window can not be done with the title bar, as it was since the beginning of time. I need to find some space somewhere. Does someone have an idea to reduce the size of the title bar as it was before? Or does someone have an idea to colorize the icons, when they are inside the title bar? If I consider that the taskbar is also increasing in size, especially in WIN 11 where this isn't adjustable, both sides (top + bottom) in sum are steeling to many space. Cheers! Kay
Sharepoint List Dynamic Hyperlink
Hi There, has anyone experience with creating a dynamic hyperlink from a sharepoint list.. I have a fixed folder with a list of pdfs (drawings of components) e.g. APPLE12A.pdf / APPLE12B.pdf / APPLE12C.pdf I have a column named PartCode and this contains .... APPLE12A / APPLE12B / APPLE12C etc... I created doclink calculated column, to join a fixed folder path followed by the part code.pdf, because i want to be able to click on the link and open a drawing for each respective part code. My doclink calculated column formula is.... =CONCATENATE("C:\Documents\Quality Control Resources\COMPONENTS","\",PartCode,".pdf").... The address looks correct, but its not clickable... Im wondering can anyone offer assistance or a better way to approach this?? Thanks
PowerPoint JS API: Can't Create Lines with Negative Slope Using addLine
We are encountering a technical issue with the PowerPoint JavaScript API when attempting to create lines with negative slope (lines that go upward from left to right). Despite various approaches, we can only create lines with a positive slope (going downward from left to right). Reproduction Steps: Using the ShapeCollection.addLine method to create lines Attempting to create a line that goes upward (with a negative slope) Regardless of the parameters passed, the lines always render with a positive slope Code Examples and Results Example 1: Attempt to create an upward sloping line const upLine = shapes.addLine(PowerPoint.ConnectorType.straight, { left: 250, top: 300, width: 100, height: -200 // Negative height should create upward slope }); Result: Line appears to go downward with a positive slope despite the negative height value Example 2: Attempt to create two connecting lines (a V shape) // First line - downward const leftLine = shapes.addLine(PowerPoint.ConnectorType.straight, { left: 150, top: 100, width: 100, height: 200 }); // Second line - intended to go upward const rightLine = shapes.addLine(PowerPoint.ConnectorType.straight, { left: 250, top: 300, width: 100, height: -200 }); Logged Coordinates: Left line: start(150,100), end(250,300) Right line: start(250,300), end(350,100) Result: While the coordinates look correct, the actual line rendering doesn't match these coordinates. Both lines appear to have positive slopes. Expected Behavior: We expect to be able to create lines with negative slopes (going upward from left to right) by specifying a negative height value, which should represent a decrease in the Y coordinate as X increases. Actual Behavior: The API seems to normalize or ignore the negative height value, resulting in lines that always have a positive slope regardless of the height parameter's sign. Technical Environment: PowerPoint Add-in Using PowerPoint JavaScript API Impact: This limitation prevents us from creating basic geometric shapes like V, triangles, or other shapes that require lines with different slopes in our add-in. Additional Information: We've ruled out simple parameter errors by logging the actual coordinates of the lines. The coordinates appear correct in the logs but don't match what's rendered on screen. Thank you for your assistance in resolving this issue. Let me know if you'd like to include your version/platform info or tweak any part before posting!
Unable to create a new E5 Developer subscription
Hi all! I'm trying to apply for a free E5 Developer subscription, to try out an MS Teams apps and MS 365 add-ins development workflow, while my employer evaluates whether to get into the market. I've joined the MS 365 Developer Program with my personal account, and they say, I should see a big blue "Set up E5 subscription" button on my dashboard. The problem is - I have nothing in its place. Does anybody know if this program is still continued? Maybe I did something wrong in configuring my account? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, AndreySeattle Conference

We have many large MXF files which have sizes between 35-50 GB. currently we are storing those files inside SharePoint online document libraries:- but seems SharePoint online is not designed to handle such large files. so my question is what is the best place to store those large files inside Office 365?
Where to ask to delete Microsoft 365 Developer Program account (profile)
Let me ask about where to ask to delete a Microsoft 365 Developer Program account(profile). This post might be inappropriate here but let me ask as follows because I do not find the useful answers yet. My predecessor joined the Microsoft 365 Developer Program. After she left my company, I took over her company mobile phone with the same phone number. Since my predecessor left without deleting the account(profile) of the program, I am unable to join the program using the company mobile phone number. *Please see the screenshot of the error. I created a support case through the support for the Visual Studio subscription and inquired. If there are any other contact points, please let me know. Regards,Create new M365 developer subscription after deletion
Hey guys, unfortunately my second developer subscription expired in last september, deletion followed in November. It is said, that after 60 days you would be able to create a new subscription, but nothing changes for me, no possibility to create a new one. Referencing to Microsoft Learn, it looks like this topic is not a rare one and MS does not really provide a solution and is leading to wrong support channels, as the visual studio subscription team would be not responsible. How to Renew Deleted Developer Subscription (without waiting 60 days) - Microsoft Community So what is your experience or is somebody here to help me out?
