Windows tip and trick for chats

[Jill]

Not sure how many of you know this but here is a tip that may help while you are participating in our chats and classes!

If you would like to chat and work in your program at the same time without opening and closing the program all the time...try this....(this is only for wndows users)

Have your chat screen and the program you work in open only!

Right click on the bottom bar (the one that has the clock on and where the start menu is located)

You will see tile horizontally or tile vertically...you can choose either one....I prefer horizontally myself so I can view the whole chat easier.

Both programs should open in whichever orientation you chose..just resize to your liking and you are set. This allows you to see what we are chatting about and your program at the same time!

Hope this helps someone!! Any questions go ahead and post them!!!!

Thank you so much for this reminder. This might work when doing tutorials also. I am forever, minimizing the tutorial, opening my program, then forgetting what the tutorial said and repeating the steps. I'll give this a try!

I'd forgotten this too, and I'm always so worried I'm going to miss something important! Will try this next time. Thanks.
