| How to Disable Wallpaper Tinting in Windows on Mac Posted: 24 Nov 2020 07:35 AM PST
Introduced in macOS Big Sur, Apple's design language includes transparent menus and tinted windows that show a bit of the color from the wallpaper. Find this annoying? Here's how to disable wallpaper tinting in windows on Mac. As design decisions go, wallpaper tinting is a weird one. Transparent menus and sidebars are easy to understand. They show the color from whatever is below the window. But wallpaper tinting takes up the color from the wallpaper, no matter if there are other windows below. Not only is it jarring, depending on the wallpaper, but the tinted windows can make things harder to read. It is most pronounced in Apple's built-in apps like Music, Photos, Finder, and System Preferences. Disabling the window tinting feature will take care of it, though. Take a look at the screenshot below to see the stark difference. The left half of the screen has the window tinting feature enabled, while the right half doesn't.
You can disable the window tinting feature from System Preferences. Click the "Apple" icon from the menu bar and choose the "System Preferences" option.
Here, go to the "General" menu.
Now, click the checkmark next to the "Allow Wallpaper Tinting in Windows" option to disable the feature.
The subtle wallpaper color effect in windows will now disappear and things will be back to how they used to be!
Another annoying part of using Big Sur is the transparent menu bars and sidebars. Here's how you can disable the transparency effect.  |
| How to Share Your Screen using Google Duo on Android Posted: 24 Nov 2020 06:01 AM PST
Google Duo is an easy-to-use video calling app, but that doesn't mean it lacks powerful features. If you'd like to show the other people in the call what's happening on your phone, the Screen Share feature makes it simple. Screen sharing is typically thought of as a feature for work-related conference calls, but it can come in handy for personal calls too. Google Duo's screen share feature is available on phones and tablets running Android 8.0 and above. We'll show you how it works. First, open the Google Duo app on your Android device and then select the person you want to video call.
Tap the "Video Call" button to begin the call.
After the call is answered, you'll see a few buttons across the bottom of the screen—tap the screen if they disappear. Select the button with three stars to bring up more options.
Next, tap the "Screen Share" option.
A message will appear and explain that screen sharing will give Google Duo access to the information shown on your display. Tap "Start Now" to begin if you're okay with that.
Lastly, you can choose if you also want to share the audio from videos or apps on your screen. Tap "Don't Share" or "Share Audio."
Your screen will now be shared. You can leave the Google Duo app and go show off anything on your phone or tablet. The red cast icon in the status bar indicates when you are sharing your screen.  To stop screen sharing, go back to the Duo video call screen and tap the "Screen Share" option again. This will not end the video call.
That's it! You can easily toggle screen sharing on and off whenever you want to show something from your screen.

| How to Change Kerning in Microsoft Word Posted: 23 Nov 2020 10:27 AM PST
Kerning refers to the adjustment of space between two characters, generally used to improve the visual aesthetics of text. You can change the kerning in Microsoft Word in just a few steps. Here's how. Why You Would Want to Adjust KerningEach font has its own default kerning. Some fonts work better than others when considering the space between certain letters. Take the word "VASE," for example. Depending on the font type you're using, the V and A may fit nicely together…  …or there may be a staggering amount of space between the two letters.  This is visually unappealing and could be jarring for your reader. Adjusting the space between the two letters could solve this issue. Manually Adjust Kerning in Microsoft WordOpen the Word document and highlight the text that you'd like to adjust the kerning for by clicking and dragging your cursor over the text.
Next, in the "Home" tab, click the small expansion icon in the bottom-right corner of the "Font" group to launch the "Font Dialog Box," or just press Ctrl+D (Cmd+D on Mac).
The "Font" window will appear. In the "Advanced" tab, click the box next to "Spacing" to display a list of spacing options. You have three options to choose from:
We want to bring our letters closer together in this example, so we'll choose "Condensed." Once selected, adjust the amount of space to be removed from between the two letters in the "By" box next to the "Spacing" option. To decrease the amount of space between letters, click the down button. Even if you previously selected the condensed spacing option, clicking the up arrow will increase the amount of space between the two letters.
Adjust to the desired amount and then click "OK" in the bottom-right corner of the window to apply the changes.
The space between letters will now be adjusted accordingly. Before kerning:
After kerning:
Automatically Adjust Kerning in Microsoft WordYou can tell Microsoft Word to automatically adjust the kerning for fonts at and above a certain font size. This option only reflects text entered after you enabled the setting. If your Word document already contains text, you'll need to select all of the text in the Word document (Ctrl+A on Windows or Cmd+A on Mac) before continuing. RELATED: How to Control Line and Paragraph Spacing in Microsoft Word Launch the "Font Dialog Box" (Ctrl+D on Windows or Cmd+D on Mac) and, in the "Advance" tab, adjust the "Spacing" settings by clicking the up and down arrow next to the "By" box.
Next, check the box next to "Kerning For Fonts" and then input the font size in the text box to the right that you'd like to apply the rule to. Note that this rule will apply to any text in the document at or above the input font size.
Click "OK" in the bottom-right corner of the window to apply the changes. Google Easter Egg
Google is full of neat hidden Easter eggs. When you search "kerning" in Google Search, the letters in the word are spaced apart in the search results. Give it a try!  |
