  • Computer Essentials – Session 1 – Step-By-Step Guide
    Computer Essentials – Session 1 – Step-by-Step Guide Note: Completing the Mouse Tutorial and Mousercise exercise which are available on the Class Resources webpage constitutes the first part of this lesson. ABOUT PROGRAMS AND OPERATING SYSTEMS Any time a task is performed on a computer, it is done through a program. For the user, the program is the application – the tool – for accomplishing a task. For the computer, it is a set of instructions on knowing how to perform this task. Examples of programs include Internet Explorer and Microsoft Word. The most important program overall is the operating system, which manages all of the computer’s resources and decides how to treat input from the user. There are several different operating systems in circulation, such as Mac O/S and Linux. However, far and away, the most commonly-used operating system is Microsoft Windows. (Note that Microsoft is just the name of the company that makes Windows, and that there are several versions of Windows. In 2012 all the computers in the lab were updated to the version of Windows called Windows 7. If you have some experience with the older versions of Windows you will notice that things look a bit different on a computer running Windows 7. THE WINDOWS 7 ENVIRONMENT The Desktop The first thing you see when you log on to the computer is the DESKTOP. The Desktop is the display area you see when Windows opens. The following items are the most common items that can be found on the desktop: Mouse pointer Icons Shortcuts to Storage drives Notification Start Button Taskbar tray Show Desktop/Peek button Andrea Philo September 2012 Page 1 of 13 Montgomery County-Norristown Public Library Computer Essentials – Session 1 – Step-by-Step Guide Parts of the Windows 7 Desktop Icon: A picture representing a program or file or places to store files.

  • Basic Computer Lesson
    Table of Contents MICROSOFT WORD 1 ONE LINC What is MSWord? MSWord is a word-processing program that allows users to create, edit, and enhance text in a variety of formats. Word is a powerful word processor with sophisticated editing and formatting as well as graphic- enhancement capabilities. Word is a good program for novice users since it is relatively easy to learn and can be integrated with language learning. Word processing has become popular due to its wide range of personal, business, and other applications. ESL learners, like others, need word processing for job search, employment, and personal purposes. Word-processing skills have become the backbone of computer literacy skills. Features PARTS OF THE SCREEN The Word screen can be overwhelming for novice learners. The numerous bars on the screen such as toolbars, scroll bars, and status bar confuse learners who are using Word for the first time. It is important that learners become familiar with parts of the screen and understand the function of each toolbar but we recommend that the Standard and Formatting toolbars as well as the Status bar be hidden for LINC One level.

    AcroButtons User’s Manual WindJack Solutions, Inc. AcroButtons© Quick Start Guide AcroButtons by Windjack Solutions, Inc. An Adobe® Acrobat® plug-in for creating Toolbar Buttons. The Fastest Button There are 5 quick steps to creating a custom toolbar button.. 1. Create a New Button 2. Name the button. 3. Select the image to appear on the button face. 4. Select the Action the button will perform. 5. Save to button to a file. Create a New Button There are two ways to start making your own Acrobat Toolbar Button. 1. Press the button on Acrobat’s Advanced Editing Toolbar. If this toolbar is not visible, then activate it from the menu option View–> Toolbars–> Advanced Editing. 2. Select the menu option Advanced–>AcroButtons–>Create New AcroButton Each of these Actions starts the process of creating a new toolbar button by displaying the Properties Panel for a new button. All values are set to defaults, including the button icon. (See The Properties Panel in the AcroButtons User’s Manual) At this point you could press “Ok” and a new toolbar button would appear on Acrobat’s toolbar. The image on the new button would be the icon that’s currently showing in the Properties Panel (question mark with a red slash through it). This button wouldn’t be very interesting though because it doesn’t do anything. 1 AcroButtons User’s Manual WindJack Solutions, Inc. Name the Button Change the default name, “Untitled0”, to something more descriptive. For this example change it to “NextPage”. The button’s name is important for several different reasons.

  • Remove ANY TOOLBAR from Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome
    Remove ANY TOOLBAR from Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome Browser toolbars have been around for years, however, in the last couple of months they became a huge mess. Unfortunately, lots of free software comes with more or less unwanted add-ons or browser toolbars. These are quite annoying because they may: Change your homepage and your search engine without your permission or awareness Track your browsing activities and searches Display annoying ads and manipulate search results Take up a lot of (vertical) space inside the browser Slow down your browser and degrade your browsing experience Fight against each other and make normal add-on handling difficult or impossible Become difficult or even impossible for the average user to fully uninstall Toolbars are not technically not a virus, but they do exhibit plenty of malicious traits, such as rootkit capabilities to hook deep into the operating system, browser hijacking, and in general just interfering with the user experience. The industry generally refers to it as a “PUP,” or potentially unwanted program. Generally speaking, toolbars are ad-supported (users may see additional banner, search, pop-up, pop-under, interstitial and in-text link advertisements) cross web browser plugin for Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome, and distributed through various monetization platforms during installation. Very often users have no idea where did it come from, so it’s not surprising at all that most of them assume that the installed toolbar is a virus. For example, when you install iLivid Media Player, you will also agree to change your browser homepage to search.conduit.com, set your default search engine to Conduit Search, and install the AVG Search-Results Toolbar.

  • Using a Scroll-Wheel Pen in Complex Virtual Environment Applications
    Wheelie - Using a Scroll-Wheel Pen in Complex Virtual Environment Applications M. Wögerbauer A. L. Fuhrmann VRVis – Research Center for Virtual Reality and VRVis – Research Center for Virtual Reality and Visualization, Ltd Visualization, Ltd Donau-City-Strasse 1 Donau-City-Strasse 1 A-1220, Vienna, Austria A-1220, Vienna, Austria [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Input devices and system control techniques for complex virtual environment (VE) applications are still an open field of research. We propose the use of a scroll-wheel as an extra, dedicated input stream on a tracked stylus for means of system control. We demonstrate how this enhanced stylus can be used together with an appropriate user interface to quickly select commands, change tools, and adjust parameters. This user interface consists of two different styles: a toolbar and a graphical menu system, both accessible by the same hand that holds the stylus. The scroll-wheel extension does in no way impair the conventional use of the stylus.
