Microsoft Visio 2010 – View Diagram in Full Screen

15 Dec

Quickly scan your Visio 2010 diagram in full-screen mode, hiding toolbars, status bars, and other onscreen elements.

Instead of constantly zooming in and out of your Microsoft Visio 2010 diagram when you need to see a “bird’s eye” view, a simpler option may be to switch to a Full Screen view. While you cannot edit a diagram in this view, it does hide all menus, status bars, the Windows Taskbar, etc., allowing you to completely concentrate on your opened diagram.

Here are a few ways to access the Full Screen view:…

14 Dec

www.tachyoninc.com FACEBOOK LINK: www.facebook.com This was taken with the New 2010 Tachyon XC 3D System. www.tachyoninc.com Just like the regular Tachyon XC, the 3D system is shockproof, waterproof, and foolproof.

Microsoft Outlook 2010 – Show More Calendar Months in the Right Pane

30 Oct

Configure Outlook 2010 to show more calendar months in the To-Do Bar on the right side of the application window.

On the right side of the Microsoft Outlook 2010 window is the “To-Do Bar”. By default, this shows the current calendar month, upcoming appointments, and a list of Tasks.

If you would like to, at a glance, see the next calendar month as well in the To-Do Bar, perform the following tweak. You can add even more months, though this will require a higher resolution / window size to view them all. Also, simultaneously viewing more months may push the appointment and Task displays off the screen….

Microsoft Word 2010 – Make Paragraphs Stand Out with Drop Caps

30 Oct

Drop Caps can make the first paragraph of a chapter or document section stand out, and they are easy to make and customize.

Many books and other documents incorporate the use of an initial at the start of a chapter or section; this is a stylized first letter that stands out from the rest of the text.

With Microsoft Word 2010 you can easily add an initial to the left of a paragraph, as well as a drop cap, an initial in-line with the text (see the screenshot to the right for an example). …

Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 – Backtrack Your Mistakes by Allowing More Undos

30 Oct

If PowerPoint 2010’s Undo feature doesn’t remember enough edits, force it to remember up to 150.

While frantically putting together a presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 at the last minute, you’re bound to make some mistakes. Don’t worry – you can easily undo edits by pressing Ctrl + Z. In fact, PowerPoint by default remembers up to your last 20 edits, so if you make a mess of things you should be able to recover. (Of course, you should still save your work often, and perhaps create backup copies at different stages of your presentation editing.)

For many people 20 edits is enough. However, if you need PowerPoint to remember even more edits (up to 150), the following tweak should help:…

Microsoft Excel 2010 – Change the Default Font for New Workbooks

30 Oct

Tired of every Excel 2010 workbook using 11 point Calibri as the default for cells? Change the default font for all new workbooks.

Just as in other Office 2010 applications, Microsoft Excel 2010 has a default font for new documents – 11 point “Body Text” (Calibri). While you can change the font for individual cells or groups of them, what if you grow tired of every new spreadsheet using this standard font? Maybe you want to use Arial or Verdana, or want cells a little larger so they are easier to read?

1. Select the “File” tab in the Ribbon….

Microsoft Outlook 2010 – Force Spell Check to Occur Before Sending Emails

30 Oct

To help avoid embarrassing mistakes, configure Outlook 2010 to always spell check your e-mail before sending it.

Microsoft Outlook 2010 automatically corrects many common spelling errors via its AutoCorrect features, and words not found in the dictionary are marked with red squiggles. However, if you type up a quick e-mail and press the “Send” button, it can be easy to glance over possible spelling errors.

You can configure the software to automatically spell check documents once you hit the “Send” button, displaying dialog boxes as it finds possible misspellings and asking you how to correct them. While running a spell checker automatically won’t guarantee your documents will be free from errors, it probably won’t hurt. Plus, if you’re in a hurry and have to get an e-mail sent ASAP (errors or not), you can abort the spell check operation….

Microsoft Word 2010 – Dashes, Fractions, and Ordinals! Oh My! Stop the Replacing.

30 Oct

Prevent Word 2010 from replacing dashes, fractions, and ordinals with characters that might not be desired or even viewable in all situations.

Microsoft Word 2010 has a habit of trying to make documents look better, features that many people normally appreciate.

For example, Word 2010 automatically changes dashes, fractions, and ordinals to characters that may appear nicer onscreen and on harcopy. However, sometimes you may wish to disable this behavior. For example, if you write text in Word 2010 and transfer it to an HTML webpage, these converted characters may look fine to you – but not to those running other operating systems who happen to visit your page. Thus, the following tweaks show how to turn these conversions off:…

30 October, 2010 – Panasonic Gh2 First Look

30 Oct

The Panasonic GH2 looks to be a winner. It addresses the shortcomings of its predecessor the GH1, and more. After a week with a pre-production sample I now have my First Look Report online.


We have just published the final six episodes of Season Two of Art Wolfe’s Travels to the Edge. You can purchase individual HD downloads of each of the 26 episodes, or each of the season’s combined 13 shows at a reduced rate. Find out more.


The new Home Page photograph is my homage to the Halloween season. Trick or Treat.
