Sign tiny function on the calculator of Windows fonts (. + - *)

The Windows Calculator, function keys fonts are almost microscopic.  The sign is not much bigger than the tiny period. Similarly for the + and * function of signs.  For 20 years, I had to squint and peer closely at the screen when you use the Windows calculator.  Is this usability flaw ever going to set?  If it has been fixed in Windows 7?  Is there a huge technical reason why signs of the function cannot be larger than the main fonts numbers?

In Windows 7, it's the same thing.  I guess the assumption is that one should know where the keys are.  Would be nice if you could change the font size.  There is this...

  • What does % button in the calculator of Windows 7?

    What makes the key on the calculator of Windows 7%?  There is not question in Help and I can't interprest the results when I press on it.

    There is a curious difference between Windows 7 and a pocket calculator. On a terminal, you must press the = button after pressing the button for the answer. The Windows 7 calculator, you get the answer immediately after pressing the key.

    Personally, for most of the calculations I just move the decimal point 2 places in my head and type the decimal equivalent of the percentage directly in & therefore do not use the percent button at all.

  • How to configure the keyboard shortcut to open the calculator of Windows 7?

    Just bought a new computer with Windows 7 and the new keyboard doesn't have a button above to open the calculator.  I find that I really really really miss having this button.  I have a white button on the top of the keypad that seems to do nothing and I wonder if I can program it to open the calculator.  Of course, I sent a technical support of the bridge and haven't heard anything after 4 days.

    You should be able to leave this empty.  Try clicking in the box and back to make sure it is completely empty.

    I set mine to Ctr-Alt-C, and it worked, but when I tried to click on Apply it prompted me administrator rights.

  • How to add or subtract 2 times, calculation with the calculator of windows 7?

    For example:

    I want to add 2 different times as follows. More time is with the format hours: Minutes: seconds.

    H MM SS

    01:50:31

    + 2:20:30

    -------------------

    04:11:01

    How to perform this calculation of time with Windows 7 or any other Calculator calculator in Windows 7.

    Response.

    In your example:

    First add the hours, the minutes and the dry separately

    Hours = 1 + 2 = 3

    MN = 50 + 20 = 70

    Seconds = 31 + 30 = 61

    Now, to calculate whole minutes because of the second column:

    61 seconds/60 = 1.016 mins (approx.)

    Ignore the bits after the comma, and add whole minutes in the minutes column:

    MN = 70 + 1 = 71

    Calculate the seconds remaining:

    61. 60 = 1 second.

    Now, calculate hours because of the minutes column:

    71minutes/60 = 1.183 hours (approx.)

    Ignore the bits after the comma and add hours to the column of the hours:

    Hours = 3 + 1 = 4

    Calculate the remaining minutes:

    71 60 = 11 min.

    That is why total is:

    4 hours, 11 minutes, 1 second.

    The calculator is not a huge help to make these kinds of calculations because it works in decimal which means he cannot directly calculate/convert seconds/minutes/hours located in several of the early 1960s. If you had a spreadsheet like Excel you could set up (with a little work) to do this kind of thing.

  • MAXL: Error when you use the runtimesubvar variable in the function 'run the calculation '.

    Hello everyone,

    I am trying to use a variable ($MyScenario) as a runtimesubvar for a calculation script.

    This excerpt from my script works perfectly (without variables):

    run the calculation "MyApp". "MyPlantype'. '" MyCalcscript' with runtimesubvars ' MyRTSV = 'Budget '. ' ;

    The following with variable does not work:

    The value MyScenario = "Budget";

    echo $MyScenario;

    run the calculationn 'MyApp'.' MyPlantype'. 'MyCalcscript' with runtimesubvars ' MyRTSV = $MyScenario; ' ;


    It is the output:

    Budget (<-$MyScenario echo works!)

    MAXL > run the calculation 'MyApp'.' MyPlantype'. 'MyCalcscript' with runtimesubvars 'MyRTSV = $MyScenario;';

    ERROR - 1012150 - environment variable [MyScenario] does not exist...

    I also tried putting $MyScenario between quotation marks simple '$MyScenario', which seems to work better but leading to a different error:

    Budget

    MAXL > run the calculation 'MyApp'.' MyPlantype'. 'MyCalcscript' with runtimesubvars ' MyRTSV = 'Budget';

    ERROR - syntax error 1242021-1 ['Budget'].

    What Miss me?

    Thanks in advance,

    Fadel

    Have you tried to use double quotes around the entire string of RTSV? Apostrophes are cutting the expansion of variables in MaxL. I think the idea is at the exit of the second snippet - $MyScenario is passed through the intact calculation and then script (MIS-) interpreted as an environment variable.

  • Why new messages are not "BOLD"? SOLVED, caused by the creation of Windows fonts which had not separated "BOLD" and not "BOLD" entered

    bold text I just installed Thunderbird 24.6 on a new system running under Windows 7 64-bit. I can read and send messages, but in the component main, new messages are not "BOLD", and e-mail accounts that have new messages are not fat, either. On another Windows 7 x 64 system I don't have this problem. The add-on installed only is lightning on the new system and I started Thunderbird in safe mode, but that has not solved the problem. There is still the/unread column and it correctly displays a pip by unread emails, but I want the effect "BOLD" to return. How can I fix this?

    Problem solved. I was playing with the Windows font setting and chose a policy that did not separate entries "BOLD" and not "BOLD" (Segoe UI Semibold)

  • No CD operating system created by the function 'Create the recovery media' - Windows/Vista/SP1

    I bought a R61 with Vista Business installed for the purpose of this downgrade to Windows/XP. I noted with interest that the system had arrived with VISTA/SP1 is installed. First thing I did was summon the Thinkvantage Rescue to create and support recovery in the case where I decided to go back to Vista at some point in the future. After you have created all of the proceeds of the recovery disks and being the creative professional that I am, I decided to test the newly created disks. Three DVD has been created. When I tried to restore the system from these backups, I learned that I didn't have a CD of the operating system. None of the 3 DVD was recognized as a CD of the operating system. Unfortunately at this point in the process, the hard drive had been wiped out and I didn't have a working computer. My only alternative was to restore using the recovery media to Windows/XP that were in the area and call Lenovo and request recovery Vista media. They arrived very quickly, so I deleted the XP image and restore the image of Vista from Lenovo's Vista recovery disks. I was very disappointed to discover that there was no SP1 Vista recovery disks. To make matters worse, when I tried to call the 'create recovery media' of this image of Vista, I even created a box of 3 DVD recovery DVDs that once again, did not contain an operating system CD.

    I find myself with the situation that I can't get the exact picture that was on my computer, when it left the factory. I don't know that besides as SP1, it should have been revised pilots and others who came with this machine originally, and which I am not aware. These could create strange incompatibilities I had to install Vista/Sp1 from the Microsoft site on top of the current generation of Vista.

    Is it possible to get a Vista Business/Sp1 for the R61 recovery support?

    Moreover, my computer is Windows XP now and recovery media created from this environment of work like a charm. I know. I tried them.

    It took a few months to get a handle on this, but here is the final solution.

    First of all, the person who suggested that if the first media was on DVD, to copy it to a CD to work had no idea what they were talking about. Either works just as well, even if Lenovo suggests that the first must be a CD.

    As usual, the 'problem' was caused by poor documentation. When you perform a set of recovery using Rescue and Recovery Media, you do not create an "operating system CD", and this is normal. When you get a set of recovery CD / DVD from Lenovo, you will always get one which is marked "operating system CD.

    Different sets through processes of different recovery and rescue and recovery needs to know what kind of game you have, it allows to perform the correct process.  It does this by asking the question "Do you have an OS CD?" Based on the answer she executes a process or another and expects different content on the CD / DVD that are presented to him. You cannot mix DVD upward between the two processes. If you say Reccue and recovery that you have a CD of the operating system (ie. provided by Lenovo) and present it with media created by you using the process of "Creating rescue media", the recovery fails.

    Finally, I went back and restored my machine using the DVD that I created initially using Rescue and Recovery. I answered 'NO' to the question "Do you have an OS CD?" and ended with a perfectly functional R61 VISTA/SP1. He didn't stay for long, however. Then I reinstalled XP using the provided Lenovo recovery CD, I answered YES to the question and ended up with a fully functional XP R61. Now, everything's fine.

  • How can I customize Firefox to remove the function where the gray browser window in order to highlight a question box?

    Since I upgraded to Firefox 3 (as I waited if long to do because I could not customize the Firefox of the way I wanted) to Firefox 14.0.1, I had a problem.

    I guess one of the sites I visit to try to emulate Windows, where the background turns gray when he wants that focus you on an area of response. So when I'm on a courier website third (Inbox.com) and delete a message when the message box appears to ask me if I really want to delete the message, the background turns gray while the answer box. It never happened on this site when I used Firefox 3, and I would like to avoid this.

    I tried to handle this with an add-on (Element Hiding Helper for Adblock Plus), but it doesn't allow me to select the gray part of the screen, the way in which this is the case not requested "pop-ups".

    Y at - it a Firefox setting or an add-on that I can use to keep the background to become "grayed out"?

    Thank you

    You can set the pref prompts.tab_modal.enabled false on the topic: config to return to the alert style former and prompt pop ups, but it crashes Firefox too long this popup is open. Modal windows are specific tab and do not block the user interface.

  • The Calculator display is glitching in Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a question where the bottom of the calculator of Windows 7 (behind the buttons) displays the image of the Office opening.  When I move the application to another area of the screen, it keeps the ghost image of the background where he opened its doors.  Also I try to use the calculator, the numbers of top of the other to create a jumble of numbers.
    It looks like this:
    -J' tried C: > SFC/scannow
    -J' tried logging into my account of comments to see if my account is corrupted and it has the same behavior.
    Is there anything else I can try to solve this problem?
    Thank you
    Dave.

    Oddly enough, I think I can find something related - I managed to solve my problem.  I had an older version of http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&p=3806 that was interfering with Visual Studio 2012.  When I updated this Codec (that I use to view the RAW files from my camera) went off the issue of the calculator.  I had an older version of FastPictureViewer - 2.4 - ish.

  • "unsecapp.exe,"MS digitally signed applet, suddenly running into one new Windows install is the trial version of the Pro Version of Ccleaner. v.4.18.4844?

    Monitoring system using the SysInternalsI just began to see a signed applet digitally MS, "unsecapp.exe", ca. as of 08/17/2001 and cannot find what caused it to appear or to be part of the work system files?  The new installation is a trial version of Ccleaner Pro v4.18.4844 from Piriform who indicated that their use does not require this applet?

    Cancel or delete the "unsecapp.exe" doesn't seem to affect the functionality of the MS other files, applets and applications, and I did not follow its insertion in the boot files yet?

    Any ideas what could have triggered this ' appearance, or what it does?  Can it be uninstalled and deleted?

    Thanks, GG

    Hi greenestguy,

    "unsecapp.exe" IS indeed a Microsoft program and I had not seen before, until now running on ANY PC running Windows XP, because I started using it about 12 years, so I have, too, was curious to know why "unsecapp.exe" was suddenly appear in the Manager of tasks and the Process Explorer.

    Having found your question on the topic I thought it might be due to the latest version of CCleaner, I had only recently updated to this version. So, I looked around, within the parameters of CCleaners and it turns out that "unsecapp.exe" begins when CCleaner starts and it is TRACKING is turned on. It is a NEW feature for users for FREE.

    To stop the "unsecapp.exe' to run and let him start at each startup, open CCleaner, go to OPTIONS, select CONTROL then uncheck 'enable monitoring system '. When this is done, you will be able to uncheck another already checked and grayed out option "enable Active monitoring". It will throw up a warning message, but just ignore that and click 'YES '.

    "unsecapp.exe" then stops turning.

    As far as I'm concerned, that the version of CCleaner FREE worked fine without it before they added the new feature like my PC, so both should, in theory, work very well with this option disabled.
