    • @thesoftwarepro
      @thesoftwarepro Месяц назад

      @ryansorrels, The size of the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) icons is dependent on your screen resolution so, unfortunately, there isn't a size option. However, you can label the options in most apps. Simply right-click on the QAT and pick Show command labels. The only downside with the labels is that the QAT can only be one row deep so you'll be more limited as to how many options you can display.

    @clemensanhuth6086 3 месяца назад

    What we can see in this video is that the "unread" status is automatically being removed. A severe limitation of this functionality, especially in relation to the "Unread Only" option. For example, toggle this on and off with a slight delay (enough for the unread status of the currently selected/show entry to be removed - do that long enough and there won't be any unread entries anymore. Quite unfortunate, and making the activity feed unsuitable for reliably keeping track. The same happens to the unread status when you open a channel, or just switch to the "Teams" view, which automatically opens the last selected channel. Doing this, and then switching back to "Activity" - now the unread status of all Activity entries of that channel have been removed.

    • @thesoftwarepro
      @thesoftwarepro 2 месяца назад

      I agree it's not a perfect solution because the unread status changes with just a click or a view. It would be helpful to allow some customization such as view time or X # of days old.

    Great video but there is something about PowerPoint Masters that drives me crazy. If I go into the MAIN Master slide and on the very top right of the upper frame I put in a graphical image to represent a logo for example, then I change the fill color of that frame (making sure that the image is IN THE FRONT and the Background Fill is IN THE BACK, when I try to use the Master for say a new Title and Content Slide, the logo is behind the frame and will not show unless I make the frame smaller, thus eliminating the background color from around the logo. I've spend a lot of time trying to figure this out over the years, but NO LUCK! Do you have a clue for me?

    • @thesoftwarepro
      @thesoftwarepro Месяц назад

      This is an interesting question. I don't have any insights based on the description. If you haven't already done this, try creating the logo and graphics in the presentation. Once you're happy with the results, group the graphics first to keep them together and then copy and paste the logo/image into the slide master layout where you'd like to see the graphic.

  • @westfield90
    @westfield90 3 месяца назад

    when I have multiple people on the session the background which has my logo on one top corner gets cropped off the page . Is there any way to make the background responsive? or how should I handle a logo placement so that it is visible on most configurations with two or more participants?

    • @thesoftwarepro
      @thesoftwarepro Месяц назад

      I haven't seen anything to indicate the background can be responsive so this might require customizing the background to better handle multiple participants as well as different devices.

    You are a SAINT! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I needed a master sheet with multiple tabs to feed each tab individually onto their own sheets, but after days of research, it seemed like Excel couldn't do it. I finally stumbled on linking, but all of the videos I found weren't making sense. This one finally accomplished what I needed! For anyone who may need this info: you can also link entire columns - when you do = and then click on the source workbook, you can click and drag to select the whole column, hit enter, and it'll feed the whole thing over to a new sheet.

      I haven't seen any option to hide the title bar. The file name is now a hyperlink to show file information and to give the user access to Version History (available with AutoSave in Excel 365). It may actually get busier as more intel is added to the title bar and file name.
