		<title>Automatic Slideshow, Delay before Slide Advances</title>
		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/27071.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/27071.html</guid>
		<description>You are making a slide show which runs automatically throughout your presentation without the needs of mouse clicking or entering of keyboard. The automatic slideshow can be photographs presentations and etc. In every slide, you realize that the slide advances to another slide immediately after the last animation ends. The result? Audience does not have the chance to read your slides because it moves too quickly. You will need to make some delay so that all your slides will pause for a while before going to the next one. There are few ways to achieve this. This tutorial will cover two simple methods.</description>

		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/27073.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/27073.html</guid>
		<description>Often when doing a presentation, you may want to enlarge an image using Emphasis: Grow effect in PowerPoint 2002/XP and above. You probably want to show a clearer view of a photograph. But enlarging with the Grow effect often ends up getting the image blurry/jagged. Now it looks ugly, you wouldn&apos;t want to show others an enlarged but poor quality picture, do you? When inserting the image, have it at the enlarged size. If you shrink the image and then enlarge it again, the quality will retain. But how do you shrink an image without the audience knowing? See the steps below.</description>

		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/27066.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/27066.html</guid>
		<description>I have experimented many ways to create a spiral effect on text. This requires the overlapping technique. The simplest way is to make use of Pinwheel Entrance effect to do the job, while the best way to create the most realistic impact is to have combination of different effects. The drawback on creating spiral effect is that it only works well on high-end computers, while on older computers, you may experience retrograde effect. The best solution is to keep the text small.</description>

		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/27067.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/27067.html</guid>
		<description>The solution to fading in from 0% to 50% is simple, but depending on what are you fading. As far as I know, the Emphasis (Transparency) animation will never work because it makes an object translucent/transparent immediately. Even if you combine it with Entrance (Fade) or Exit (Fade) animations, the effect will not work effectively. Do take note that this tutorial does not apply to animating the text. </description>

		<description>My client wanted screen shots in their CHM, but the screens were very large thus creating problems when printing a topic. With some help from Dave Gash, I got the large screen shots to open at 50% size, with a function for the user to resize them to 100% either all at once or one at a time. The function also toggled back to 50% at the user&apos;s discretion. This solved the problem of large screen shots in the online help, while allowing error-free printing to occur.</description>

		<title>Autonumbering with RoboHelp and Microsoft Word</title>
		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/18792.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/18792.html</guid>
		<description>Because of a bug in Microsoft Word (both Word 97 and Word 2000), it&apos;s difficult to number lists automatically. The Numbering Numbering toolbar button toolbar button doesn&apos;t work reliably, and neither does RoboHelp&apos;s Topic Text Numbered style. Even if you install Microsoft&apos;s SR-1 or SR-2 patch to Word 97 or upgrade to Word 2000, you are still likely to encounter problems with any complex numbered list formatting.&#xD;&#xD;As a result of these problems, many RoboHelp users have reverted to “manual” list numbering, which is both time-consuming and error-prone. Using the procedure described here, you can automate the process of creating numbered lists in Word and completely insulate yourself from the Word bug that has plagued so many Help authors.&#xD;&#xD;To accomplish this, you&apos;ll need to take steps detailed on this page.</description>

		<title>Using Table Cell Borders and Shading in WinHelp</title>
		<link>http://tc.eserver.org/18798.html</link>
		<guid>http://tc.eserver.org/18798.html</guid>
		<description>For years, the Microsoft Help Compiler (the one for WinHelp, not HTML Help) has been telling Help authors that we can&apos;t use borders or shading or merged cells in the tables we create in our Help topics. But this is actually not true. There is a way.&#xD;&#xD;And you don&apos;t have to create your tables in a graphics program either. Instead, taking advantage of Word&apos;s ability to embed objects created in another application, you can keep your tables “editable” while formatting them to your heart&apos;s content with borders and shading. All of this is accomplished using the features of Microsoft Word, so this technique should work with any Word-based authoring tool. As RoboHelp specialists, we have tested the procedure only with RoboHelp versions 5, 6, 7, 2000, 9, and 2002.&#xD;&#xD;You can create formatted tables using Word or Excel. Use whichever you prefer.</description>

		<description>The EZSort tool helps interface designers organize information based on users&apos; expectations using statistical cluster analysis. This tool includes two packages -- USort and EZCalc. The USort program can be used by card sort participants to sort virtual cards with a simple GUI interface, instead of using physical cards. It can also be used by study administrators to generate card list and enter existing card sort result from individual participants. Once individual card sort results are captured by the USort package, test administrators can use the EZCalc package to manage card sort data from multiple participants, and perform cluster analyses. EZCalc generates tree diagrams that allow direct adjustment of the cluster thresholds. The packages can be used in designing Web sites, program interfaces, and many other information design applications.</description>
