Settings to get entire message on page... - not good at computer stuff


Posted: Jan 04, 2014

instead of using mouse to go to bottom and slide from left to right to see words on right-hand side of message. If I use control (-), it makes print too small to read. If I go up 1 (control +), the print size is fine, but I have to use slider at bottom to read each message. Thanks in advance.

I think I know what you're talking about - sm

I don't know what platform you use, but I use Chartscript.Net. On some templates, the right margin is way over to 9 inches, making it impossible to see all the text on one page. What I've discovered is that by blocking the entire text after you've typed a couple lines, then going over and moving the right margin back to 7.5, then SAVING the document, your margins will stick.

No, but thanks. What I meant was this MTStars page. If I make text bigger by using control +, I can't see entire message without sliding bar at bottom of screen for each line of text. I had this problem before, and someone said how to fix it. I just can't remember how.

Oh! I get it. - sm

Are you using your CTRL key and + key to enlarge? If that doesn't work, hold down the CTRL key while using the scroll wheel on your mouse to decrease or increase text. That still may not help, but that's what I do.

Holding down control key while scrolling down on mouse worked!!! Thank you so much.
Yay! - nm

Smartype Line Will Not Move With The Page So When I Get To The Bottom Of The Page
Mar 09, 2011

I have a question about Smartype and I will try to make it so it is understandable:)  I bought Instant Text because I had to have some way of moving my Smartype over into Word 2007 (I had Word 2002).  I have Instant Text turned off until I learn the new platform on the new company I am with.  My problem is this, the Smartype line will not move with the page so when I get to the bottom of the page it covers up everything at the bottom and I can only manually move Smartype by scrolling back up ...

DocQspeech Settings.
May 20, 2010

One thing that is killing me on SR is when I get dictators that pause a lot.  Even using commands to speed up through the spaces, it is a waste of time.  Under Tools, Options, Speech Recognition, at the bottom there is a box to check for accelerated silence playback and a slider for 5 seconds to 30 seconds.  I have this checked, but nothing is different than when it is unchecked.  What is this supposed to do and why does it not seem to work?  I am not with Medquist, but ...

Can Someone Provide Me With Ventilator Settings? I Mean,

when doctors give settings for ventilators, FIO2, PEEP and so on.  If someone can provide me a simple list, I would appreciate it.  This isn't for a test and, sadly, I'm not a newbie.  I haven't done these type of reports in a while and my brain seems frozen over.  If anyone can grasp what I'm trying to say and could provide some simple answers, I would really appreciate it.    Thank you. ...

Transferring Word With Settings To New Computer

My 7-yr-old computer finally needs to be replaced, and I found a good deal on a new powerful machine, but I do not want to lose all of my Word settings, including dictionary, autocorrects, autotexts, macros, etc. It has taken me years to build these files and they make my work go very smoothly. If I install the same version of Word (2002) on my new machine, how do I transfer my customized Word program to the new machine so I can go right to work just like on the old machine?

Bayscribe Foot Pedal Settings?

I'm working on Bayscribe for the first time ever and I'm getting pretty frustrated with the foot pedal functions.  On every other plaform I've ever worked on, whenever you lift your foot from the pedal, it would automatically rewind the dictation a few seconds.  It's not doing that on here and it's driving me crazy and is really slowing me down.  I've been into the settings of the job player, but there doesn't seem to be an option to enable this. ...

At this point, I dont believe there will be pay cuts, I think they will just starve out the ones making a high ...
