WorkaroundThere is a web alternative, yet, it is a light version of MS Word that has a limited selection of features. Change the number of the most recently used documents Having your 25 most recently used documents on the File tab, in the Open menu, is handy, but you may find it's not enough. To illustrate my problem: I have a docx-File with three paragraphs and a spreadsheet. Every paragraph and the spreadsheet contains the word 'test'. I want a version there via Strg+F the word 'test' can only be found in the third paragraph and the spreadsheet. Likewise, Synchronous Scrolling is not supported in Mac Word, either. Both features have been in popular demand for some time. You can locate & vote for existing feature requests at Word for Mac AI: Artificial Intelligence or Automated Idiocy??? What is Synchronous Scrolling in MS-Word & Excel: Synchronous scrolling is one of the great features, used to compare contents of two documents at the same time by scrolling one of the two documents. To use this feature, follow the steps below.
