Preview feature in Office 2007 UI

Although this is a great feature one of the flaws I have encountered is that
in order to see changes in a dcoument that is currently viewed at 100%, I
have to first either make the document smaller or make the preview palate
smaller, if possible (both make either viewing the document or the available
changes less visible). It would be easier to move the ribbon to a location
where the document is not so covered up or ideally have a way to move the
individual preview items (i.e., fonts, font sizes, styles, etc) off the
ribbon to a location where the preview could be observed without covering the
test that would be affected.

To have to zoom the document out (make smaller to observe the preview
affect) and then zoom the document back in (restore to a readable view) seems
like an unecessary step. For example, I may want to apply a style to a
header, if I extend the style palate, it often covers the header that I want
to preview. My screen resolution is at 1024x768. It has got to be worst at
800x600.

I suggest that with the next rev, that more flexibility for moving the
ribbon around is added for the end user.
