Outlook 2013 , Set pop-out as default while replying




In outlook 2013 , when you reply a message you have to enter your message in the bottom preview pane.



There are two options, "Pop out" and "discard".  



You can disable composing in the reading pane using a reg key - the buttons will open a new window.



Option 1:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\15.0\outlook\message]
"disablereadingpanecompose"=dword:00000001

Option 2:

File-> Options-> Mail-> Replies and Forwards-> Use inline replies when replying or forwarding



In RTM this option is :



File-> Options-> Mail-> Replies and Forwards-> Open replies and forwards in a new window

Disable / Enable the typing animation in Outlook 2013


Office 2013 has its own set of animations for certain actions such as opening the File screen (Backstage), selecting different sections , opening dialog, etc… and also for typing.

The result is that your cursor “smoothly glides” while you type.

If you do not want this behavior, you can turn this off via a Registry settings.

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Graphics
Value name:
disableanimations
Value type:
REG_DWORD
Value:
1

When you are using Office 2013 in a Remote Desktop Session, then all animations are turned off by default.

You can enable them by Registry key (and of course make sure the above key isn’t set):

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Graphics
Value name: enableanimationsonts
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1
