Problem is shaking hand can result in mouse moving onto a different cell/row. Note: At least using the Mouse to action the Format Paintbrush does not delete comments - so I suppose I should be grateful. What I can't do is "Action" the Format Paintbrush on the destination cells by just using the keyboard - I have to press the left button of the mouse, while remembering to move the mouse cursor into the destination selection (it can be any of the cells)! I can select the source cells and start up Format Paintbrush, I can also select the destination cells (all just using the keyboard). So I would not only have to remember to press the unnecessary hotkey to reset the Paste Special options, but also remember to not do it on a cell that has a comment! Oh ![]() I could create another macro to copy a cell, Paste Special it back on itself with these options only, but this has also has the other annoying side effect of deleting any comment, even though the "Comments" option is not set! So how can I reset the Paste Special Options to Text/Numbers/Date? While this does what I wanted, it has the annoying side effect of leaving the Paste Special options changed. I have set up a macro to do the Paste Special - Formats only. Rem -ĭocument = ĭispatcher = createUnoService(".DispatchHelper")ĭim args1(5) as new .PropertyValueĭispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:InsertContents", "", 0, args1())Īnd you can paste (by this macro) the applied styles of the source cell range into the target cell range too. How would Cell Styles help? Would I not need to select each cell individually and then choose a style by the shortcut key assigned to it. What I was looking for was the keyboard equivalent of "do a mouse left click", which works fine. Plus when you want to use Paste Special for other uses, you then find all your usual defaults are changed - a real pain! Select cells to be formatted and Paste Special works, but as you say you have to switch off all the options you do not want and switch on "Formats". Select cells already formatted and Copy is the same as Select cells and Edit/Format Paint - same number of key-strokes. (1) Would a macro work when the cells to be selected / cells to be copied to can be any number of cells and can be anywhere? I find this option very useful as once you have set up formats, you can then copy them onto other cells without changing the contents. You might know it as "Format Painter" in Excel. When you select a group of cells, then click it with the mouse, the cursor changes from an arrow to a paint tin with paint pouring out of it.

Here are three ways to quickly remove formatting from your spreadsheet. However, when the time comes when you need to share the spreadsheet with someone else who doesn’t need to see your annotations, for example, cleaning up your formatting could become a daunting task. Whether you’ve added a comment to a certain cell to call attention, or bolded the line items most important to remember, your annotations can help you parse through a spreadsheet.

![]() ![]() Can I use a font that was designed for another language to write in Russian, or do I need a specific Russian font? Moreover, some letter combinations in Russian fonts may contain special ligatures or alternative characters. They can give text a unique aesthetic and are frequently encountered in serif fonts. The presence of “tits” (мансарднe асеки), which are minute stylistic flourishes that extend above or below the main body of a letter, is one distinctive aspect of Russian fonts. Are there any unique features or quirks in Russian fonts that aren’t present in other languages? Moreover, not all fonts may provide diacritical marks or alternative forms for some letters. While some letters, such “A” and “C,” have a similar appearance to Latin letters, their glyphs differ in Russian fonts. There are 33 letters in the Russian alphabet, and each one has a different glyph in a font. How many letters are in the Russian alphabet, and do all of them have unique glyphs in a font? The PT Sans and PT Serif fonts, for example, were created especially for the Cyrillic alphabet. ![]() The other well-liked options are Calibri, Verdana, and Arial. Times New Roman, a popular option for many languages, is perhaps the typeface that Russian language documents use the most. What is the most commonly used font for Russian language documents? Back in the USSRįAQs about roman and greek looking fonts 1. Sovietīased on lettering from a 1925 Soviet poster by one very strange (and unidentified) comrade, this Russian font is named after the main character is Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s Crime and Punishment and was, not coincidentally, Boris Badenov’s favorite swear word. It has been adapted for the Roman alphabet (the original was predominantly Cyrillic). This is a font based on the block-print style typeface commonly found on eastern-bloc propaganda posters throughout the 1930’s and 40’s. The result is that you can type out a phrase and it will look like Cyrillic lettering while being perfectly readable English. The author threw out all the Cyrillic letters that didn’t look like anything and filled in the remaining characters with the regular Latin alphabet. I took all the Cyrillic letters and matched them up with the Latin alphabet letters they look like. Have you ever seen some Russian writing and tried to pronounce it like it looks, even though you know probably none of those letters are pronounced like the Latin alphabet letter they look like? It is drawn specifically for forced subtitles in the movie Avatar, so the system font will be seen exactly as the Avatar.

The fonts are available for free download but you should check their licenses in case you want to use them for commercial projects. However, I found very little of them and more regular fonts, but with the soviet influence stamped on their characters. I initially wanted to make the article only with Cyrillic fonts to help the Russian designers with their typography for posters, flyers, brochures or other print design projects.

Many of the big browsers, including Chrome and even Safari, have been caught collecting “incognito” browsing history. And don't think your web browser's incognito mode will help. This is important when even the United States seems determined to cripple encryption, with FBI Director Christopher Wray calling for “lawful access” to encrypted communications before the Senate Judiciary Committee in March 2021. It is safely outside the Five Eyes and does not require any mandatory data retention or other privacy abuses we see in the US and UK. We think this is a good privacy jurisdiction.

Significantly worse performance when using OpenVPN.Good streaming and torrenting performance.A large network with many advanced features.WireGuard support for enhanced performance.Support for most operating systems and devices.So what does this deal mean for customers of the two companies? The merger is meant to “reveal technical knowledge-sharing opportunities and enable more focused market diversification.” It is a strategic business move that should help both companies to thrive over the next few years but doesn't look like it will have any immediate impact on VPN users. According to the blog post announcing the deal, the two companies will continue to operate autonomously, with separate infrastructures and product roadmaps. On February 2, 2022, Nord Security (the parent company of NordVPN) and Surfshark closed a merger deal. We're ready to dive right in, but we do have a minor public service announcement for you to read first: Surfshark merges with Nord Security We've tested the heck out of this virtual private network and have been very impressed. In this most recent review, we're going to cover both the things you'll like about Surfshark (the Pros), and the things that you won't (the Cons).

The result is mounting evidence that human activity is raising the risk of some types of extreme weather, especially those linked to heat. Scientists have published more than 400 peer-reviewed studies looking at weather extremes around the world, from wildfires in the US and heatwaves in India and Pakistan to typhoons in Asia and record-breaking rainfall in the UK. These studies have the power to link the seemingly abstract concept of climate change with personal and tangible experiences of the weather. Known as “extreme event attribution”, the field has gained momentum, not only in the science world, but also in the media and public imagination. In the early 2000s, a new field of climate-science research emerged that began to explore the human fingerprint on extreme weather, such as floods, heatwaves, droughts and storms. ![]() ![]() Save the file and open your web browser and type “localhost” (Since our server is locally hosted) followed by the folder name that you created and hit enter.ĩ.

![]() In spite of this advertising, many consumers who took the time to gather their documents, entrust their personal information to Intuit, and begin the filing process found that they could not file their taxes for free.įor example, in at least one ad a disclaimer appeared on the screen while an announcer said “That’s right, TurboTax Free is free. These ads have run during major events, including the Super Bowl, and have also aired during this year’s NCAA Basketball Tournament: “We are asking a court to immediately halt this bait-and-switch, and to protect taxpayers at the peak of filing season.”Īs detailed in the complaint, Intuit engaged in a years-long marketing campaign centered on the promise of “free” services. “TurboTax is bombarding consumers with ads for ‘free’ tax filing services, and then hitting them with charges when it’s time to file,” said Samuel Levine, Director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection. ![]() In 2020, for example, approximately two-thirds of tax filers could not use TurboTax’s free product. In fact, most tax filers can’t use the company’s “free” service because it is not available to millions of taxpayers, such as those who get a 1099 form for work in the gig economy, or those who earn farm income. The Commission alleges that the company’s ubiquitous advertisements touting their supposedly “free” products-some of which have consisted almost entirely of the word “free” spoken repeatedly-mislead consumers into believing that they can file their taxes for free with TurboTax. In addition, to prevent ongoing harm to consumers rushing to file their taxes, the Commission also filed a federal district court complaint asking a court to order Intuit to halt its deceptive advertising immediately. The Federal Trade Commission is taking action against Intuit Inc., the maker of the popular TurboTax tax filing software, by issuing an administrative complaint against the company for deceiving consumers with bogus advertisements pitching “free” tax filing that millions of consumers could not use.
