Hi Insiders,

My name is Constance, and I’m a program manager on the Office Graphics team. We're excited to announce the availability of a new collection of icons. Browse through more than 500 icons to find one that suits your purpose, and then edit its fill and outline to match a theme.

Check it out!

Availability

If you receive builds of Office 2016 for Windows through the Office Insiders Slow or Fast level, you can now add icons into any Word document, Excel workbook, PowerPoint presentation or Outlook email.

Get started

In any app, click Insert > Icons:

Scenarios to try

Insert icons

  1. Click Insert > Icons.
  2. From the Insert Icon dialog box, search for an icon, or browse by category.
  3. Insert the icon into your document, presentation, workbook, or e-mail message.

Edit Icons

  • After you insert an icon, use the formatting options on the Graphics Tools tab to change the icon’s fill or outline, or to add a visual effect such as glow or shadow. 

Let us know what you think!

Thanks,

The Office Graphics Team

    Hi Sebastian,

    Since Gerry's solution didn't work for you, can you try deleting your browser cache (via your browser settings) and see if that fixes the issue? It's possible that your browser cache folder has become too full, and that's why the images aren't being downloaded.

    Hi Anneliese,

    thanks for your reply. Unfortunately yes, I still have the problem. Repairing Office and reinstalling it did not bring any solution... :(

    Gerry,

    The "sunny" part of "sunny and humid" sounds nice right now. We've had a rainy and dismal February here in Redmond!

    Many thanks for the additional information, I've forwarded it on. Rest assured that the right people are looped in and actively investigating. I will keep you posted on progress...
