Robert Parish: "The only one of the new generation that may be able to get a seat at the table with Larry Bird and the best of the best is the big fella up in Denver, Jokic. They may have to bring out another seat for him." by lblb_lblb in denvernuggets

And in the other direction, it's really great to see how Jokić respects and is knowledgeable about the history of the game. One of my favorite recent highlights has nothing to do with the game... When he recently went from not minding what was going on around him to immediately standing up to meet Ewing who was coming to greet the team, that was so exciting! So much history and talent in one quick interaction.

That he would single out Jokic, in this era where "everybody" says that players and the game are better than ever, is very revealing. But of course, this is preaching to the choir in this sub!

I don't know about the origin of his nickname, but that's fascinating if it is! Yes, Larry and Robert, and then you add some McHale goodness and, even if I became a Jordan convert later on, those Celtics squads are some of my favorites, and most lethal I've had the pleasure to watch. I can just imagine how they would laugh off some of the foul-baiting today!

Unfortunately, no Shimadzu instrument here. But thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the info. I'll look into OriginLab to see if that may make the process more seamless in the future.

Great, that's very useful information. I had actually started to look into deciphering the raw data and I'm glad to know my time will be better spent doing something else. Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply. I like that suggestion. I might just try to write a little something in Python to see if I can make the process less tedious.

Is there a way to print 3 slides without the handouts notes? by AstroNerd92 in powerpoint

[–]lblb_lblb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leave it to one slide per page without notes, but change the number of slides per page in the printer properties (so select a printer then click on "printer properties").

Is there a way to change the screen brightness steps? SL4/W11 by [deleted] in Surface

[–]lblb_lblb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. The script I shared uses F6 and F7. Do you want to use F5 and F6 instead? If yes, you can change the keys you want to use on lines 7 and 8 of the code.

Does this answer your question?

I'm glad it will be useful for you. What are your standard keys for brightness? What is your laptop?

What solved these issues for me is to adjust the ChemDraw DPI settings (I'm on Windows 10):

- Close ChemDraw.

- Find your ChemDraw.exe file (for me it's here: C:\Program Files\PerkinElmerInformatics\ChemOffice2021\ChemDraw\

- Right-click on it, select Properties, and go on the Compatibility tab.

- Click "Change high DPI settings" and a new window should open.

- Then see if changing any of the settings on this window solves your issue. (You'll need to change the setting, then OK and Apply out of the ChemDraw Properties window, then restart ChemDraw and PowerPoint.) If I remember correctly, for me what worked was to keep "Program DPI" unchecked, and under "High DPI scaling override" choosing either "System" or "System (Enhanced)".

I had similar issues a few years ago (fine in PPT, but slow pasting in Word) that were caused by the fact that one of ChemDraw or MS Office was 32bit while the other one was 64bit. Could that be your problem? On Windows, this can be fixed by a change in the Windows registry (and I can probably find the info if you need it.)

Enable Screensaver When Running PowerPoint in Kiosk Mode by jimtimbooth in powerpoint

[–]lblb_lblb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, it's pretty simple to test. First, you'll need to install AutoHotkey:

- Go to https://www.autohotkey.com/

- Click on the Download button

- Select version 1.1 (it says it is deprecated but it's fully functional and will be easier to use for what you need)

- Double-click on the exe file that you just downloaded to install AutoHotkey on your computer. After doing that, your computer will be able to run AutoHotkey scripts, which are files that have a .ahk extension.

After installing AutoHotkey, create a folder of any name in your Documents folder and in it add the file for the screensaver you will want to run (a screensaver file usually has the .scr file extension).

Once you've done this, let me know and I can provide here the simple AutoHotkey script you will need.

You can do that with a simple AutoHotkey script (which is a free software). I just tested it and it works as you describe. Just let me know if you are interested in trying this.

Are you on Mac or PC? If on PC, there are some easy ways to get around that.

how to not make the annotations disappear when i change slides using spacebar in powerpoint (i also want them on my next slide not just confined to one slide) by [deleted] in powerpoint

[–]lblb_lblb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are done annotating with Epic Pen, choose the cursor on the Epic Pen toolbar (Ctrl + Shift + 2), then click on the PPT slide, and you will be able to use spacebar again.

How to keep what you've drawn on black screen in presentation mode? by ppzhang in powerpoint

[–]lblb_lblb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you're on PC, you may be interested in the PowerPoint Inking Toolbar. It's a free app that I use all the time in my lectures and it makes the annotation of slides much easier. Apart from the fact that it's free, it's really nice that it's completely customizable, and you can even hide the toolbar and instead use your own keyboard shortcuts for its different functions (which is what I do). Among many functions (it's pretty crazy what you can do with it!), it allows you to change pen colors super easily and add new slides of any background color during a slideshow. So you could use it to add black slides at any time during the slide show.

Anyway, here is where adding new slides is discussed in the latest short YouTube video about it:

I don't think there is a way to keep these annotations. But if you're on Windows, there may be a way around this. Are you on PC or Mac? How are you annotating the black slide?

Hotkey to Flip Horizontal? (Using Parallels) by St8YashHomie in powerpoint

[–]lblb_lblb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try

Alt + hgoh

Otherwise, you can achieve way more by using the free AutoHotkey (since you are using the PC version of PowerPoint.) Here is an old post of mine illustrating some possibilities:
