MS Office 2013 - How do I increase contrast or go back to 2010?
The Office 2013 interface looks terrible.  The loss of contrast makes it very difficult to process information quickly, particularly when switching back and forth between applications.  Will Microsoft be providing a fix soon?  Is it possible to reset to the 2010 "high contrast" screens?

sorry, the only options are white, gray, darker gray - File, Accounts menu.

I really wish they would make a change.  I work with a laptop (desktop replacement) and an external monitor.  I like a big monitor and at 24" size it is so light it gives me a headache...do you know if there are any plans to make a change to it?  

I hope so, I may have to go to a smaller external monitor (fortunately, have another one), but I like the larger one!!

At this time, no, it's not going to change in this version. Have you adjusted the brightness on your monitor? I found turning brightness down about 20% helped a lot.

I too wish MS would make a change - especially as I have poor eyesight!

I guess the root of the problem is that MS has gone for something aesthetically pleasing rather than functional efficiency
