Excel 2007 - Double-Click to Format ...

Is/was there a compelling reason to remove the double-click to format in
Office 2007 ... particularly in Excel charting?

In order to change any attributes of any element of a chart, you have to go
through the ribbons, or right click and navigate through all the menus to do
anything.

Please - PLEASE - my aching wrist and I implore you to bring back the
double-click ... soon!

If you agree with this suggestion, please click this and let Microsoft know
we need this back.

This was a mystery to all of us. Apparently is was just one more way to
squeeze any productivity out of Office 2007. We've complained enough that
they may just surprise us and bring it back in the next version.
