  • How to Save an Excel Graph (Or Anything Else on Your Screen) As A
    Created 5/28/15 How to Save an Excel Graph (or anything else on your screen) as a JPG file in Microsoft Windows There are at least 2 ways to save a screen shot as a JPG in Microsoft Windows. One is to use Snipping Tool and the other is to use the Print Screen key. With either tool, you will copy ‘the picture’ on your screen and paste it in Microsoft Paint, and use the tools in Microsoft Paint to save the JPG image. If you don’t already use Snipping Tool or Paint, you may want to pin them to your taskbar so they are readily accessible. How to Pin Tools to your Taskbar Snipping Tool. Click the Start button. In the Search field, replace Search programs and files with Snip. Snipping Tool will appear in the Search Results. Right click on Snipping Tool and click Pin to taskbar. Paint. Click the Start button. In the Search field, replace Search programs and files with Paint. Paint will appear in the Search Results. Right click on Paint and click Pin to taskbar. Prepare Your Screen The key is to make sure ‘the picture’ on your screen is exactly as you would like it to appear. In addition, make sure that it fills your screen so you have the highest resolution possible. In Word, use View>Read Mode and adjust the zoom so ‘the picture’ fills the screen. In Excel or PowerPoint, adjust the zoom so ‘the picture’ fills the screen. Use Snipping Tool to capture screen shots 1. With ‘the picture’ on the screen, open Snipping Tool.

  • Paint.Net V3.5.5
    Paint.net v3.5.5 Featuring an easy-to-use interface and an array of effects, Paint.net is a solid free photo editing applications for those that don't need the power of Photoshop or Web sharing. PROS: Simple to use. Wide variety of effects, including 3D rotation and zoom. Layering. Free. CONS: Lack of photo organization and sharing features may turn off some users. No Mac version. COMPANY: dotPDN LLC SPEC DATA: Type: Personal Free: Yes, Yes OS Compatibility: Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 7 By Jeffrey L. Wilson If you're looking for a photo manipulation tool that offers more complexity than Microsoft Paint but doesn't have the intimidation factor of a beast like Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended ($699 to $999 list, $199–$899 list for upgrades, 5 stars), then dotPDN's Paint.net may fit the bill. This Windows-only desktop photo editing application (which draws its name from its Microsoft.Net programming foundation) features a simple, intuitive interface, a number of plug-ins, and an excellent price (free) that makes it well worth checking out. Setup After a quick setup (the software installed in under a minute, but it may take longer if your machine doesn't have the Microsoft .Net framework already installed and Paint.net has to download it for you), I launched the program and was greeted with a blank, white canvas. Depending on your operating system, you may experience eye-candy. If your PC is running Windows 7 or Windows Vista, Paint.net will be beautified with Aero Glass transparencies—something that Windows XP computers won't display—giving it an appearance of being part of the OS itself.

  • Microsoft Paint – Gestalten Am Computer
    Autorin: Anja Mohr Microsoft Paint – Gestalten am Computer PAINT ist ein Microsoft-Zubehörprogramm, das beim Kauf von Windows-Betriebssystemen automatisch mitgeliefert wird. Als pixelorientiertes Grafikprogramm ermöglicht es das Erstellen einfacher Grafiken, die in verschiedene Windowsanwendungen eingebunden werden können. Auch das einfache Modifizieren von importierten Bildern ist möglich. Da PAINT im Windows-Paket integriert ist, ist es für gewöhnlich das erste Malprogramm, mit dem Kinder in Berührung kommen. Paint öffnen PAINT ist zu finden unter „Start alle Programme Zubehör“. Nach dem Öffnen des Programms können Sie sofort loslegen. Mit Paint gestalten Achtung: Die Anleitung bezieht sich auf PAINT für das Betriebssystem Windows XP! Aktuellere Windows-Versionen enthalten dieselben Funktionen, diese sind jedoch anders angeordnet (zum Beispiel Werkzeugpalette am oberen Bildschirmrand). In der Windows XP-Version sind die verschiedenen Funktionssymbole am linken Bildschirmrand innerhalb einer Palette aufgeführt. Die Palette am unteren Bildrand enthält unterschiedliche Farben. Am oberen Rand der Arbeitsfläche sind einige Pull-Down-Menüs aufgeführt, wie sie auch bei Programmen wie WORD zu finden sind. Es handelt sich bei PAINT um ein Programm, das nur eine Ebene (Layer) aufweist. Das führt dazu, dass alle Elemente auf der Arbeitsfläche verschmelzen. Wenn Sie also zum Beispiel mehrere einzelne Bilder (zum Beispiel Figuren aus dem Internet) auf der Arbeitsfläche übereinander legen, können Sie diese nicht mehr selektiv anklicken und bewegen, sondern müssen Sie mit dem Auswahl- Tool auswählen. So wird allerdings auch der Hintergrund ausgewählt (beim Verschieben der Auswahl wird das „hintere“ Bild dadurch gelöscht). © 2011, LO Lehrer-Online GmbH Autorin: Anja Mohr Beim Arbeiten mit fremdem Bildmaterial müssen Sie auf die Urheberrechte achten.

  • A Guide to Microsoft Paint (Windows XP) Introduction
    A Guide to Microsoft Paint (Windows XP) Introduction Microsoft Paint allows you to produce your own pictures (or edit existing ones). In Windows XP, you can no longer access Paint directly from the Microsoft Office applications; instead, you insert the picture file or copy and paste the picture directly from Paint. Note that pictures and drawings are fundamentally different. A picture is composed of a fine grid of coloured dots (pixels), whereas a drawing is composed of lines and areas. If you paste a drawing into a painting program, its component units (the lines etc) are lost - they become a series of individual dots. To create a drawing you need to use Microsoft Draw (see A Guide to Microsoft Draw for details). Starting up Microsoft Paint To run Microsoft Paint independently: 1. Open the Windows Start menu, select Programs then Accessories and finally Paint 2. [Maximize] the window so that the Paint window fills the screen Your screen should now appear as below: The white area on the screen is your painting canvas, below this is a palette of 28 colours, while to the left is a toolbox. Many of the tools in the toolbox match those in Microsoft Draw but they don't all behave in exactly the same way. Fundamentals Before you start to explore the toolbox, it's important to understand several fundamental aspects of using a painting package. The major difference between this and a drawing package is that once a line or shape has been drawn it cannot be edited in the same way. You cannot, for example, lengthen a line, nor can you change its style or colour.
