How to Turn Off Typing Indicators in Signal (or Turn Them On) Posted: 10 Jan 2021 07:34 AM PST Typing indicators allow you to see when someone you're communicating with is typing a text message to you. If they're a slow typer, though, you might end up sitting there watching the indicator bounce on your screen. Thankfully, you can turn typing indicators off in Signal. The typing indicator in the Signal app, as seen below, consists of three moving dots inside of a bubble. When someone you're chatting with is typing, the bubble will be present. Note: As with read receipts, when you disable typing indicators, they're turned off for every individual or group Signal chat you're in. You will no longer see when someone is typing a message to you and they won't see when you're typing a message to them. Begin by opening the "Signal" app on your iPhone or Android smartphone. Next, tap on your avatar in the top-left corner. If you haven't uploaded a custom profile picture, it might appear as your username's initials. Select the "Privacy" option from the list in the "Settings" menu. Finally, toggle off "Typing Indicators." If you instead want to turn the feature back on, tap the toggle to enable the typing indicators. As mentioned above, turning off typing indicators will disable the feature for both yourself and the person you're communicating with. If they keep the setting enabled, they will see typing indicators in other chats, but not in conversations with you. RELATED: How to Turn Off Read Receipts in Signal (or Turn Them On) See details

How to Create a Family Tree in Microsoft PowerPoint Posted: 10 Jan 2021 06:29 AM PST A family tree is a hierarchical chart that details the connection between members of a family. You can create your own family tree in PowerPoint by using one of Microsoft's many hierarchy style SmartArt graphics. Here's how. To get started, open PowerPoint and navigate to the "Insert" tab. In the "Illustrations" group, click "SmartArt." The "Choose a SmartArt Graphic" window will appear. In the left-hand pane, click the "Hierarchy" tab. You'll now see a small collection of hierarchy SmartArt graphics. For standard family trees, the "Organizational Chart" option is ideal. However, you can choose whichever SmartArt graphic works best for you. Select the chart you would like to use by clicking it. Once selected, a preview and a description of the chart will appear in the right-hand pane. Click "OK" to insert the chart. With the chart added to your presentation, you can start entering the names of the family members in each respective box. Do this by clicking the box and typing their name. The text will resize itself to fit the boxes automatically. You can delete boxes you don't need by clicking the box to select it and then pressing the "Delete" key on your keyboard. You can also add additional boxes below or above certain positions. To do this, highlight the box by clicking it. Next, click the "Design" tab in the "SmartArt Tools" group. In the "Create Graphic" group, click the arrow next to the "Add Shape" option. A drop-down menu will appear. The option you select from the menu will depend on where you want to place the box with respect to the currently selected box. Here's what each option does: Add Shape After: Adds a box to the right, and on the same level, of the selected box. Add Shape Before: Adds a box to the left, and on the same level, of the selected box. Add Shape Above: Adds a box above the selected box. Add Shape Below: Adds a box below the selected box. Add Assistant: Adds a box between the level of the selected box and the level below. In this example, assuming our fictional character Bryon had a child, we'd use the "Add Shape Below" option. A box will now appear below our selected box. Once the box is placed, enter the name of the respective family member. Repeat these steps until your family tree is complete. You can also tweak the design or change the color of the chart. Click the chart to select it and then click the "Design" tab. In the "SmartArt Styles" group, you'll see a range of different styles to choose from, as well as the option to change colors. Click the "Change Colors" option to show a drop-down menu, then select the color scheme you like best. Next, choose a style you like from the lineup in the "SmartArt Styles" group. We'll use the "Inset" option. Your chart will take on the selected color and style. Play around with the styles and colors until you find one the works best for you. Creating a family tree is an exciting thing, but it's always a collaborative effort. You can ask family members to collaborate on the presentation with you to ensure that no family members are left out. And remember to share the presentation with your family once the family tree is complete! See details

How to Save and Download Apple Fitness+ Workouts Posted: 09 Jan 2021 09:57 AM PST Apple Fitness+ has a lot of different workouts from more than 20 different trainers. If you find one you love, it's probably a good idea to save it so you can do it again later without digging through the app. You can also download workouts for when you're traveling or just don't have an internet connection. Here's how. How to Save Your Favorite Fitness+ Workouts In the Fitness app, open the workout that you want to save to your favorites and tap "Add." You can also tap the "…" button and then "Save Workout." Where to Find Your Saved Workouts Your saved workouts are available on the main Fitness+ screen. Scroll down to "My Workouts" to see your most recently saved ones. Tap "Show All" to see all of them. How to Download Fitness+ Workouts You can only download workouts after you've saved them. Immediately after saving a workout, the "Add" button gets replaced with a download button. Tap it to save a workout for offline use. You can also tap the "…" button and then tap "Download Workout." Alternatively, there's a green download button under every saved workout in the "My Workouts" section. Tap it to download that workout. So that you can easily find them, all your downloaded workouts are available in a dedicated "Download Workouts" section under "My Workouts" on the main Fitness+ screen. How to Remove a Saved Workout To remove a saved workout or delete a downloaded one, open it, tap the "…" button, then tap "Remove from My Workouts" or "Remove Download," depending on what you want to do. Note: For some strange reason, if you want to remove a downloaded workout from your favorites list, you first have to remove it as a download before removing it from your workouts. See details
