You post some of the best Word tutorials on TH-cam, very helpful, Thank you. A quick question; I regularly need to manually set the width of a table (with text wrapping), an image, or a text box in a two columned page, so I need the precise measurements of the two columns + the spacing between them + padding if any. Is there an easy way to get the exact page layout dimensions?
Thank you so much for watching! Other than manual calculations, I'm sadly unaware of an easy way to find the measurements you need. However, that is a time-intensive process, so if the documents are similar, you may want to save one as a template for reuse. I wish you all the best with your Word projects!
Okay, I got the double arrow now, but it won't work on the hanging tag. I already read your suggestion to move them together, then move one back and I get a hot mess. Do I have to change the ruler for each section? I want to set this up once and never have to do it again. How do you do this on a document well in progress. Don't ask me how the settings change themselves. I guess I'm cursed. Also why do the numbers move around on the ruler when I'm trying to do this? I can't find the right place with this.😢Okay, if I need every paragraph following a heading to have no ident (already made a custom style for it) and I need to indent first line of every paragraph that follows a paragraph, what happens if I try this method?
I have a question about using the ruler to set tabs for a bulleted list. When I drag the marker for the left tab across the screen, the bullets alternate between showing up on the left or right side of the vertical line. Do you happen to know why this happens?
That is an interesting question! I tried but was unable to replicate the behavior you describe. So, I'm afraid I can't give you any concrete answers. My best suggestion is to ensure that only the bulleted items are selected before moving the marker. If there are any hidden formatting marks also selected, that might be causing an issue.
Hello Erin, i have a problem to add a new section after the endnotes or to convert the bibliography into plain text in order to solve this problem, can you help me for that? .. Thank you a lot
Thank you for watching! As far as I know, it's not possible to add a section break within the endnotes. However, if you want to save the bibliography as plain text, you can copy it into a new file and then save that file as plain text. I wish you all the best with your project!
Interesting video, there are some tips I was not aware of. BUT my issue is, the rulers are displayed, but they are so faint, almost invisible, how do I increase the colour depth of the ruler?
Thank you for watching! Unfortunately, I am not aware of a way to change the color of the rulers. However, if you switch the interface to Dark Gray or Black, the rulers may become a bit easier to see. I have a separate tutorial showing that process: th-cam.com/video/T-vab5SIZ9s/w-d-xo.html.
Thanks. Nice simple to follow tutorials. I wish to ask you if it is possible to do a word tutorial on how to make a detailed hireracy flow diagram i.e one which show say a Each leader with support staff working directly unto him.
This did not work for me because the ruler does not show the actual size of the paper. It is missing one inch on the right hand side for letter sized paper. Therefore, I have no idea how to set it up. Thumbs down.
Thank you for watching! To move a marker on the ruler without a mouse, press the marker, hold, and drag your finger on your trackpad. Admittedly, it is more difficult to do than with a mouse. I wish you all the best!
