Print command added to a recreated and renamed Move group on the default Home tab of the Classic Ribbon. Print command added to a recreated and renamed Move group on the default Home tab of the Simplified Ribbon. Your command should now show up on the default Main tab of Outlook within the “Move” or “Move & Print” group.Īfter you’ve recreated the group with the commands you want, you can select and remove the pre-defined group from the Ribbon. Select the pre-defined “Move” group and press the “Add all the commands that you wish to keep from this pre-defined group to your newly created group by using the “Add >” button.In the list on the right, verify that your newly created group (“Move” or “Move & Print”) is selected.Expand the list at the bottom until you have found the group that you are currently editing.Set the “Choose commands from” dropdown list to: All Tabs.There is also a “Quick Print” command which immediately sends the selected message to your default printer without any additional prompts for settings.From the list on the right, select the Print command.With the “New Group (custom)” selected, press the Rename… button and give the group a name.In the list on the right, verify that “Home (Mail)” is expanded and select the “Move & Delete” or “Move” group.In the main Outlook window choose: File-> Options-> Customize Ribbon.In this example, we’ll add the Print command to the pre-defined Move group on the Home tab of Outlook. Method 2: Adding a command to a pre-defined group To customize the Message tab that is shown when using the Inline Reply feature, set the “Customize the (Classic/Single Line) Ribbon” dropdown list in the top right to “All Tabs” and expand the “Message” list in the “Compose Tools” section at the bottom of the list. Spelling & Grammar command added to the default Message tab (Classic Ribbon). Spelling & Grammar command added to the default Message tab (Single Line Ribbon).

Your command should now show up on the default Message tab when composing a message.Īfter adding a new Group, you can also add commands to the default tabs of Outlook.

If the command that you want to add doesn’t show in this list, use the “Choose commands from” dropdown list at the to to: All Commands.From the list on the left, select the Spelling & Grammar command.Press the New Group button at the bottom.In the list on the right, verify that “New Mail Message” is expanded and select the Clipboard group.Choose: File-> Options-> Customize Ribbon.In this example, we’ll add the Spelling & Grammar command in its own group on the Message tab on the right side of the existing “Clipboard” group. Method 1: Adding a command to a custom group If you want to add a command to an existing pre-defined group, you’ll need to “rebuild” that group first and delete the pre-defined group. However, when you add a group of your own, you can add any command you want. This is actually relatively easy to do but when you try to customize the Ribbon, the fact that the commands for the default tabs are greyed out might throw you off at first. I know that you can add commands to the Quick Access Toolbar but I actually like to have some additional commands shown on the Home or Message tab of Outlook instead.įor instance, I would like to add the Spelling & Grammar button to the main Messages tab (visible when composing a message) and the Print button to the Home tab of the Outlook window itself.
