I need to have the CC option on new emails always visible without having to click the button every time. I would like to be able to press TAB after entering recipients and get to the CC field.
I'm on the new version (16.47 for Mac).

Thanks. I was hoping to not have to to any extra clicking to get to the CC field and just hit Tab. I found that I can change the settings to have all new messages appear in a separate window which accomplishes that for me. See photo here:
Thanks for your help.
Another request to have the CC field set to always show. None of the above solutions have changed anything for me. Because of this issue, I've switched back to the "old" Outlook design and will stay there until MS can get its act together and stop changing basic design that's been around for years.
I agree. Why has MS made this harder to use and less efficient? Where are the UX people in this? They must assume that most emails are 1 person to 1 person...NOT TRUE in a business setting. CC is on MOST emails. Please correct or offer a preferences setting for this.
In an age that each click=time, I agree. Why would they do this?
Another request to allow the CC field to always show. Why would you make hiding it the default?!
