Office for Mac: Retina mode?

-BigMac- · Nov 25, 2012, 01:15 AM

Hi guys.

I have a fully updated Office for Mac suite on my rMBP.

I'm wondering if this is happening to everyone, the styles palletes havent been updated to retina. it looks really quite ugly, and i thought a 'retina update' would mean all the aspects would be updated?

Is it just me, or is this slack of Microsoft?

Just Microsoft with their lazy updates.

Alas, as you've probably discovered, if you take a closer look at drop-down menus and such, you'll see a great chunk of all three Office apps (and I assume Outlook too, which I'm not using) looks truly abhorrent on our Retina displays. MS release 'critical' updates to improve error reporting, or some such bollocks, but leaves our word processor, our spreadsheets, etc. in their current state.
