Problem with Shorthand and Chartscript.net - Buzzie
Posted: Sep 16, 2011
I am using Shorthand and Chartscript.net. They don't seem that compatible with each other because no matter what setting I try, my expansions often come out wrong. For example, I'll get "pr.n." instead of "p.r.n." or "MEICAL HISTORY" instead of "MEDICAL HISTORY" or "PHYICAL XAMINATION" instead of "PHYSICAL EXAMINATION." The entries are correct in Shorthand, but letters and characters are just getting cut off. It's kind of driving me crazy because it makes more work in proofreading - spellcheck doesn't notice all the mistakes that Shorthand is making and I have to be even more vigilant than normal.
Is there any setting that anyone knows of that might be more effective? :)
Try adjusting these settings. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Under file/preferences, you can tinker with the pause how-many milliseconds after every how-many keystrokes. Has to do with the speed of your computer system, and whether it and Shorthand can keep up with each other. My computer is a 4-year-old (at least) dinosaur, and my settings are 0 and 40 respectively. I may be mistaken, but on a faster computer, I think you would actually want to raise the number of milliseconds.

Using Shorthand With Chartscript
Jul 02, 2013
Hello to all :) I need help. I use Shorthand Version 10 and just started working in Chartscript. I access Chartscript through a virtual private network, Oracle VM Virtual Box. Shorthand won't work at all. I looked to see if there was a box to uncheck for the "Enable Protected Mode" issue, and there is no box there to uncheck (Tools, Internet Options, Security tab). I did also change SH to run in compatibility mode and when I restarted SH I was able to see my little yellow window ...

Chartscript.net Question
Nov 17, 2010
Not sure if anyone can help on this but figured it might be worth a shot. I am working on chartscript.net and it has some preloaded garbage in the abbreviation expander. These are basically global expansions and I am wondering if there is any way to delete them. I can add my own expansions and edit and delete those with no problem but have not been able to figure out a way to either turn them off, delete them, or whatever. If anyone has had this situation and can give me a sugg ...

Anybody With Chartscript And Slow DSL?sm

ChartScript.net- Linecount And Other Issues
Nov 03, 2011
Good day all! My employer is switching to ChartScript.net and I am very concerned. I have heard a lot of bad things about the net version of ChartScript, though mostly from people who used it a few years ago, so wondering what current net users think. -Line counts- Have heard some reports get lost in the system, demographics/headers/footers, etc are not counted and that line counts seem to far off from what MT expects based on other line counts programs/MS word line counts- How hard is i ...
Chartscript Font Switching?
Sep 10, 2013
I'm working on an account that uses Chartscript, and something fairly bizarre is happening to my notes. When I submit the jobs they are in Times New Roman font, I'm double-checking to make sure that's the case, but at some point after submission they are switching to Arial! I have no clue why it's happening, apparently it's not only me, but is happening to some others, but not everyone. Does anyone have any idea why, or what I can do about it? ...
Question For ChartScript Experts. Is There Any Way To

When I open abbreviations to edit/add, every time you close after adding one, then open it again to add another, it seems to take forever. Is there any way to speed this process up? I have decent internet, nothing else is slow. When I transcribe, the program itself goes well. It's only the abbreviation section that's so poky. Any ideas how to make this go faster, the adding abbreviations? ...

Chartnet Platform Versus Chartscript
Mar 02, 2011
My company just switched us over to the Chartnet platform. I don't like it and I'm sure not seeing what all the excitement was about. I was able to make 320-350 lph on Chartscript and yesterday I ended the day with about 200 lph on Chartnet. I am a glass half full person so before I come to the conclusion that management just hyped this platform to try and keep us enthusiastic and on board for a smooth transition, could somebody tell me what features about Chart ...

Here's Another Shorthand Tip...
Oct 17, 2009
Someone recently had an issue with Shorthand and Autocorrect both operating at the same time, and they were apparently fighting with each other, because both of them had some of the same expansions/corrections, so the user was getting duplicate text. I finally worked out a system for myself where Shorthand is used for actual expansions, shortcuts, etc. Autocorrect is restricted to correcting misspelled and mis-capitalized words.If I have done it correctly, never the twain should meet, and I can ...
Shorthand V10 Help

ShortHand - What's So Different About It?

All those Short Hand experts out there (and I believe there are at least a few of you), can someone tell me how this works differently than what I'm already usin ...
