3. Select the Update automatically check box.
4. The date is inserted as a field and will update automatically.
If you want to create a border around your text, you have a decision to make. Do you want a border that will go all the way around your text or a border that will cover one specific area of your text? For example, bottom border. You add a border to your text under the paragraph section on the home tab, pressing on the drop-down menu will give you the options you can select from.
Within word, by default, you will not see a background only a colour. You can add different styles of backgrounds to your word to make it look more interesting, while this feature doesn't change how word functions in the slightest it is nice knowing you can change elements of word to your preference. Within the GIF, Geometry is selected as the style but you can pick from the list shown to change the little design in the top right corner of your software.
Quick parts are a way of storing content that you want to reuse, such as images or lines of text. It may also include document properties such as the author of the document and title for example and AutoText. Primarily these are called building blocks.
To create a new Quick Part, you select the information you wish to keep and navigate to the Insert tab. Open Quick Parts and save the selection to the quick part gallery. Your selection is then stored in the gallery.
There are many different shapes you can create and insert into your work. Keyword being 'insert', you can only add a shape through the insert tab. Ranging from arrows and stars to squares and lines.
Formatting your shape will allow you to change the colour of the shape and the outline of the shape. Also, you may wish to add effects to the shape such as a shadow for visual reasons. However, you can also begin typing text into the shape for more information.
When you have word open, go to File > Options > Quick Access Toolbar, switch to All Commands and click on the Calculate Command to add to the Quick Access Toolbar (You can quickly find the calculate tool by pressing on the list of commands followed by pressing the letter C). After you save, you will see a grey circle at the top of your Word window where Save, Undo & Redo are located.
To use this calculator, highlight an equation in your document and press on that circle, you will notice that an answer to your calculation will appear at the bottom of your window.
If you have disabled the auto checks for spelling and grammar in word, you can still double check that you haven’t made any mistakes. When you are writing on word, you might not notice any spelling or grammar errors, but you can manually check by pressing on the open book icon that is located on the bottom bar.
Pressing this icon will open an additional dialog box, which will tell you the spelling mistakes and grammar corrections. You can chose to either ignore the checks and carry on working, or you can change the mistakes to the recommended options that word provides.
To create a style in word, you first need to locate the style section on the Home Tab. After you have found this location (as shown in the image) pressing on the little icon with an arrow pointing down will open a drop-down menu where you can create a style, clear formatting or apply a style.
When creating a style, you need to first name it something that you will remember and select the option ‘Modify’. Here you can decide the format of your text such as changing: the size, the colour and the font. You also have the option to use an existing style as a template instead of creating a style from scratch.
Within word, you can quickly remove all formatting from text, where it be information that you have copied from another location or from within the document. To quickly perform this task, on the Home Tab you will notice within the section listed as ‘Font’ you and see an eraser with the letter A directly next to it. Pressing on this icon while you are next to the text you want to be affected will completely remove all formatting such as colour size and font.
In word, you have three different view options to choose from. Each will change how you see your document. The default and standard layout is called Print Layout. You also have the option to change it to Web Layout or Read mode.
To prevent eye strain while in reading mode, you can change some visual settings such as changing the page layout from column which is default in this mode or paper layout. You can change the colour of the page to either sepia or inverse.
To change this colour, enter read mode and navigate to view. (Read mode is located in the bottom right corner of word) Page Colour will appear on this list, from which you can decide which to use.
