How to Hide Gridlines in Google Sheets Posted: 10 Mar 2021 08:09 AM PST If you're working in Google Sheets, you should already be familiar with its grid-like interface, where cells are separated by borderlines called gridlines. If you want to hide these gridlines from view, however, here's what you'll need to do. Hide Gridlines in Edit ViewBy default, Google Sheets displays gridlines as you're editing a spreadsheet. These are the gray lines that separate each cell. When you select a cell (or multiple cells), Sheets will surround it with a blue border. Gridlines are different from cell borders, which you can manually add to cells to make them stand out. Disabling gridlines in Google Sheets won't remove any additional cell borders or formatting you've applied to cells in your spreadsheet. If you want to hide the gridlines as you edit, however, you can. Start by opening your Google Sheet spreadsheet and clicking "View" from the menu bar. From the "View" menu, select the "Gridlines" option to uncheck it. Once that's unchecked, all gridlines between cells across your spreadsheet will disappear from view. You should still see the blue border around the cells you select, however. Hide Gridlines in Printed DocumentsThe method above will hide gridlines as you edit a Google Sheets spreadsheet, but not if you decide to print it. When you print from Sheets, gridlines will cover the area containing any non-empty cells, allowing you to view them separately. If you want to hide gridlines from printed Google Sheets documents, however, you'll need to start by opening your spreadsheet and clicking File > Print to open the printer settings menu. In the "Print Settings" menu, select the "Formatting" category option in the menu panel on the right. From the options listed below it, uncheck the "Show Grid Lines" option. This will remove any visible gridlines from your spreadsheet during the printing process. Confirm the other print settings using the panel on the right, then check your spreadsheet layout using the print preview panel on the left. If you're happy to proceed, click "Next" to begin the printing process. Your browser or operating system's printer options menu should appear at this point. Make sure to confirm that the correct printer, page selection, and page sizes are selected, then select "Print" in the bottom-right corner to begin printing your spreadsheet. Your Google Sheets spreadsheet should now print, showing the contents of your document, but with any visible gridlines removed. |
How to Use the Whiteboard Feature in Zoom to Mark up Screens Posted: 10 Mar 2021 07:04 AM PST Zoom offers tools to help make your virtual meetings feel as much like real life as possible. One tool that can help with collaboration is the "Whiteboard" feature. The Zoom Whiteboard is great for illustrating ideas and can be super helpful. The Whiteboard feature is pretty much what its name implies. Much like how you might use a physical whiteboard in a meeting, Zoom's Whiteboard is a place to doodle, mark up documents, and annotate on drawings. The ability to create a Whiteboard is available with the Zoom app for Windows, Mac, Linux, iPad, and Android. Unfortunately, at the time of writing, you can only draw on a Whiteboard using the iPhone app. How to Enable the Zoom WhiteboardFirst and foremost, you'll only be able to use the Whiteboard if the meeting organizer allows screen sharing. Organizers can do this by selecting "Security" while the meeting is in progress and checking "Share Screen." That's it. The Whiteboard is simply one of the options in the "Share Screen" menu. Now everyone in the meeting will be able to use the annotation feature. RELATED: How to Set Up a Zoom Meeting How to Use the Zoom WhiteboardNow, to actually use the Whiteboard, you'll need to join a meeting. Once in the video call, select the green "Share Screen" button. On Android, the button simply says "Share." On an iPad, the button says "Share Content." Next, you'll see all the available screens you can share. The one we want is "Whiteboard" or "Share Whiteboard." On the desktop versions, you'll need to click "Share" after selecting "Whiteboard." The Zoom Whiteboard will now open to a blank white space. A toolbar at the top of the screen has all the drawing and annotating tools. One thing, in particular, to point out is the "Save" button. Use this to keep a copy of the Whiteboard when you're done. When you're finished using the Whiteboard in your Zoom meeting, select the red "Stop Share" button that will be located somewhere on the screen. How to Collaborate on the Zoom WhiteboardThe Whiteboard works great as a collaborative tool as well. When someone else is using the Whiteboard, you can draw or annotate on top of it. This can be done with all Zoom clients. On the Windows, Mac, and Linux apps, select "View Options" from the floating screen sharing menu. Then select "Annotate." On the iPhone, iPad, or Android app, tap the pencil button when viewing someone's Whiteboard. The Whiteboard tool is pretty powerful and can be super useful in virtual Zoom meetings when it's hard to explain things verbally. Ask your meeting organizer to allow it next time you're in a meeting. RELATED: How to Join a Zoom Meeting |
How to Run a Safety Check on Google Chrome Posted: 10 Mar 2021 05:58 AM PST We're used to running antivirus scans on our computers, but that doesn't cover your online safety. For that, Google Chrome offers a tool that lets you perform a similar checkup to secure your web browsing. Here's how to run a safety check on Chrome. Launch the Google Chrome web browser on your Windows 10, Mac, Chrome OS, or Linux computer and click the three-dot menu button found in the top-right corner. Head into "Settings" from the drop-down menu. Scroll down to find the "Safety Check" section and click the blue "Check Now" option. Google Chrome will kick off the "Safety Check" test. Depending on how much browsing data you have, this can take anywhere from a few seconds to a couple of minutes. In this process, Google Chrome scans a total of four core modules to look for any malicious code and see if they are up to the mark. It will make sure that the browser app is on the most recent version for protection against the latest internet viruses and that all of your installed third-party extensions are harmless. It will also check whether any of your saved passwords have been compromised in a data breach and that "Safe Browsing," a setting that warns you against suspicious sites, is enabled. Once the Safety Check is complete, Chrome will pull up shortcuts for anything that may need your immediate attention, such as reviewing compromised credentials. After taking the recommended steps, you can also run the Safety Check again to ensure that your new security settings are active. There's a lot more you can do to optimize Chrome for maximum privacy, such as switching on "Enhanced Safe Browsing," an advanced mode that allows Google to assess your browsing for potential threats and suggest privacy-focused improvements. However, do note that when you activate the "Enhanced Safe Browsing" option, you choose to share a copy of your browsing data with Google.

How to Stop Android Apps from Using Background Mobile Data Posted: 09 Mar 2021 09:12 AM PST Data usage, especially on a mobile data plan, is something you might want to keep a close eye on. It's very annoying if apps you don't open often are eating through data caps in the background. Thankfully, Android allows you to prevent this. Android makes it pretty easy to keep tabs on your data usage. You can even set up alerts to stop your smartphone or tablet from going over your limits. Another handy trick is to block specific apps from using mobile data in the background altogether. RELATED: How to Track Your Data Usage on Android
To get started, swipe down from the top of your device's screen (once or twice, depending on your phone or tablet's manufacturer) and tap the gear icon to open the Settings menu. Next, select "Apps & Notifications." Tap "See All [Number] Apps" for the full list of installed apps. Find the app from the list that you want to restrict background data usage for. Next, select "Mobile Data & Wi-Fi." Toggle off the switch for "Background Data." That's it! The app will no longer be able to use mobile data in the background. It will still be able to use data when you open it, though. For apps that you don't use very often, this is a nice way to ensure that they don't eat into your data allowance.
