I’ve just buggered another computer, so loading software onto a new PC is tedious, but also good in that you can review programmes that you’ve loaded and you can consider if you want them on your new computer<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A couple of productivity tools I want to ment ion are 1. Textify & 2. Smart Caps Locks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Textify<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’ve used this app for a while now.This is a useful app for grabbing some text from places where its hard to select, like on a browser pop-up or some licence code details that wont let you select them. You are not using this tool all the time, but when you need it it does do a good job about 80% of the time (there are situations where it is not able to grab some text, fair enough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a free tool and ou can get it from here<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It loads at PC start (if you want) and I forget about it until I need some text, then I go and look at what Fast Keys I’ve set for it and use it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart Caps Locks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’ve only just come across this one, and there are some variable writeup\/comments on it from great to it crashing. I do look at my keyboard when typing, and looking up I see that I’ve written heaps in Upper Case as I’ve inadvertantly put the caps lock on, especially when using a new Computer. So this can change the case of your text by highlighting it and using a fast key to change it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a free tool and can be downloaded here<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’ll try it out and see how it goes. It fires up from a zip file and doesn’t seem to install to program files so I’ll leave it sitting in my Download directory and try it out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

win 10 update 1903 file open – group by Date<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Something that has been getting up my nose is in the new windows update (october 2019) when you go to open a file from a programme instead of the folder\/file tree as normal, its all grouped by date. Presumably the thinking is you want the latest file you’ve been using. Bloody frustrating trying to find older files though. So I went online to find the solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article<\/strong> , scroll down to comment number 10, where it says :<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In the Open\/Save dialog, right-click in the background select Group by > (None).”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You sometimes have to stretch the Open\/Save Dialogue box out until you can see a bit of background with no column header to right click on, and it works a treat. Well done that person for the advice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

End comment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’ll update this article regarding the Smart Caps Locks tool, its such a great little idea, I just hope it works well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
