Free Hints: Changing cases (08:08) is faster with Shift F3. Create building block: Alt+F3 Call up building block: just F3 (no mouse clicks required, so faster) Q: What is the added value of making texts hidden? (01:38) You said you would come back to it later, but there is no point in making texts hidden at the moment.
I'm super smart and have been working with Word since version 1, but this video was a real trove of gems. Why? WHY? Why didn't I knew these features years earlier 😢
I'm SO glad for the Quick Parts feature you showed. As a teacher I am constantly making the same kinds of diagrams, but there is no such thing as a default text box that is just the font with no border or background, so I have to recreate it every single time. This will be wonderful for reducing that repetition.
One thing he didn't show is that you can also insert a Quick Parts by just typing part of its name. So when creating them it's a good idea to have a short memorable name. And once you type a minimum of three matching characters, a little prompt box will come up; similar to automatic date fill and selecting enter will insert your data.
I use autocorrect using abbreviations to replace for canned reponses. You can autoreplace with whole paragraphs if you want. I am going to check out quick parts though for building block and try as it says in the comment thread using quick parts instead of autocorrect using abreviations also. They have removed it from the new outlook so you will just have to use Word instead.
Selecting multiple (seperated) parts is also a great feature. Just hold the CTRL key while you select some thing with the mouse and then another thing with the mouse.
The hidden text is really useful; if you create a "character style", you can easily apply it to answers, and print the document without (student version) or with (teacher key) version. However, note that end-of-paragraph marks should NOT be formatted this way, or the whole paragraph may disappear; put a few spaces at the end, deselect those, and select the desired answer, and press shortcut Ctrl-Shift-S to pull up the style menu, and type the beginning of the "answer-text" character style. Boom - there you go! All the other tips are really good, but hidden text is my favorite.
8:05 - You can also quickly change case with Shift + F3. Toggles between upper, lower, and title case. Found this one out eons ago and it has served me well.
I'm an administrative assistant and I use Word extensively every day. I would say that along with Acrobat Reader Pro, it's the software I use the most. I knew about most of the features, but I did learn a few things: the lorem ipsum trick, shrink one page and screenshots were new to me (though I have gotten so used to print screen and crop that I may continue to do so). Will re-watch to make sure I caught everything. Keep up the good work! BTW, Lorem ipsum is typically a corrupted version of De finibus bonorum et malorum, a 1st-century BC text by the Roman statesman and philosopher Cicero, with words altered, added, and removed to make it nonsensical and improper Latin.
Actually the loral ipsum is a set of nonsense words used to showcase all the words in the alphabet. This helps to assess whether the chosen text type is good for you.
When you click the pilcrow symbol in the paragraph tools (what you refer to as show/hide formatting marks) you commented that the symbol appearing in the document indicates a new line. Strictly speaking, you get a new line by holding down the shift key while pressing Enter, simply pressing the enter key creates a new paragraph and that new paragraph adopts all the fonts, spacing and other paragraph formatting of the paragraph you were just in. While the pilcrow symbol shows up on the screen as a single character, when you copy and paste it makes a big difference whether or not that character is part of the copied text since it holds all the formatting instructions. As an experiment, toggle the formatting marks to 'on', triple click inside a paragraph to select the entire paragraph and then copy and paste the block somewhere else in Word. Repeat on the same paragraph but before the copy, hold down shift and press the left arrow to de-select the pilcrow mark. Now if you copy and paste you will not be dragging the formatting along. Recent versions of Word have made it easier to opt how you paste so it isn't as critical that you see the formatting marks all the time but I still find it helpful to see what is going on when Word seems to be stubborn about formatting issues, particularly when the paragraph includes numbering.
Good stuff, few items I learned and I've considered myself a Word Pro since 1990s. One thing I've found extremely useful is Reveal Formatting - Shift-F1 and its counterparts ctrl-space to clear character formatting and ctrl-q to clear paragraph formatting.
One of the useful tools when applying formatting is to use the copy format button. Little known is that you can double-click the copy format button and then it remains sticky and you can apply the copied format to multiple successive selections. Hit escape to un-stick it. Saves a LOT of time when you have lots of finicky formatting to apply. Enjoy! 😊
I'm not in a position where I'm creating documents all-day every-day, but there were a few examples here I thought were useful in my day-to-day use of Word. The alt+select is great, and the "fit to page" also could be useful to me. Thanks for the great tips!
Lorem ipsum is typically a corrupted version of De finibus bonorum et malorum, a 1st-century BC text by the Roman statesman and philosopher Cicero, with words altered, added, and removed to make it nonsensical and improper Latin. The first two words themselves are a truncation of 'dolorem ipsum' ('pain itself').
What really upsets me is that 2 min before the launch of this video, I was working on an important document that I submitted. I wish I watched that before.
*Always* great to see these hints & tricks videos. I always end up using some of them all the time or installing recommended tools. This channel is where I heard about Notepad++ and it's awesome, and Ctrl-F3/Ctrl-Shift-F3 will make my life a heck of a lot easier. (Apparently it's called "Spike" / "Insert Spike" in Office 2000.) In Office 2000 I once fat-fingered the keyboard and Word said, "Okay, I'll disable Autosave for the rest of this session" and I've never found it again since. Back in the late '90s there was a menu item in Microsoft Word make a list of _all_ available functions in a new document, but I can't find a version of that to look up the first hotkey.
Spent the afternoon demonstrating and showcasing the grandfather of at least the first version of Microsoft Word, and designed/implemented by the same creator. Circa 1977. Great fun. But the current version has features in places where it shouldn't even have places.
I recently wrote a project documentation on Word which also included index of figures. when I converted the docx into pdf and clicked on link of a figure the pdf asks me to open the Word document instead of jumping to the figure. It seems to be a very old issue since 2011 which has no solution so far. Any ideas?
👍👍👍always learning some new tricks from your video. 10q. I usually export my customized ribbon / quick access toolbar to my other computers so that I don't have to redo the customization once switching to other machines.
Actually was very funny to watch this video since I‘ve last used that imo very bad piece of software over 1.5 years ago and I‘ve last used any word processor about a year ago. Also last used Windows in any serious capacity 1.5 years ago. Gotta say my Linux journey was and now even more is phenomenal
There is absolutely nothing in an auto-correct or that family of functions that are not only useless to me but are also a hinderance to a proper composition of a document. I've been harassed by software that insisted on making the following letter after a period into an upper-case letter, deleting the second space after a full stop, insisting that "check", "Czech" and "cheque" are all not words and a host of other annoyances to someone who _knows_ English. When I am on my own machine I take great pains to find "driving assist" functions in software and kill them like the vermin they are.

A really cool feature many people are not aware off is that the narration / read aloud feature can actually talk with an accent despite the text not containing one. I am Swiss and I my native language is Swiss German. It is a very strong dialect of German, to the point that Germans actually do not understand us in most cases. Despite that, we write our texts in normal German, because Swiss German doesen't have an official written language. But if your language settings are right, it reads aloud the german text in almost perfect swiss german. I discovered it by accident and was blown away that Microsoft actually included such a heavy dialect of german, that barely anyone speaks.
Merely one (1) European country of 8.5 million people speaks that. That's almost nothing!

@@LootFragg I am not sure if you are sarcastic or not but yes, it actually is basically nothing. On a global scale for business, doing anything related to switzerland specifically is almost always absolutely not worth it. 8.5 million people which of about 2/3 are german, which of about 3/4 have some kind of german as a native language from which about 1/10 spoeak that specific dialect.
I'm pretty familiar with all the MS Office programs and features. I have to say that I did not know about 70% of these. Thanks. Some of them will be highly useful.
Just a few days before the national Word competition in Guatemala, I am from Guatemala. Some of them i already know, but others, i didn't, so this will be useful
8:46 Show/Hide is good for adding landscape pages in the middle of a portrait oriented document using page break and section breaks. Hard to explain how to do it by typing. You should do a video to show this trick. I use this when adding large tables to a document. BTW, Great video. I learned some new stuff as well as reminded of features i forgot about.
@@ThioJoe yeh. You basically separate the document into two sections using section/page break feature and you can have various different page orientations in one document. The show/hide feature helps you spot where to insert the breaks and where a new section starts and ends.
Wow, I will definitely use the screenshot function and the custom formatting function! This will become a huge timesaver for me, because I study IT and I do often need a specific document formatting or to insert screenshots from virtual machines. Thank you!
I know of Lorem, doc inspector, and show/hide button. The others are completely new to me. But I am not creating new docs every day. Nevertheless, I can see myself using the spike function, as I have had that problem and would do it one row at a time. Thank you.
I love the quick access feature, especially since all quick access icons up top has shortcuts to them. For example, at 4:17, Autosave toggle would be Alt->1, Save Alt->2 and Shrink to fit that was inserted Alt->3 And you can customize their order, to make it as you want it.
In the settings, go to Advanced in the left menu. You can set default settings for copying and pasting text to the document there. I copy and paste a lot of text from the web and set it up so that every time I paste something from the other applications, it doesn't bring the formatting with the paste. Basically, paste text only on default.
Update: Read Aloud will bring up a "player" controls that you can pause, go back or advance forward; you can also change the voice/speed. I use this feature a lot.
in rand() 8190 is the max paragraph limit and the sentence limit :) pin me joe edit : i forgot, when combined both it only allows upto =rand(1,8190) for the left and =rand(8190,2) for the right. so something to note ig 🤔🤔
I don't think I've had to use Word in like 20 years so it was cool to see all these features I would have likely used. Now days Excel is where the majority of my Office time is spent, so definitely would love a video covering that. There are times when I just write a script in python to avoid having to research how to solve my problems in Excel 😅
Honestly I would love to see a video on the macros tab on any Microsoft product. It seems that everybody knows it is there but don’t care to open it or use it.
Very much appreciated content!!! I suffer from lack of knowledge on this very topic. Saved this link, and will keep it on my desktop until I start to have it soak in and use more of these helpful tips...👍
The presenter spoke far too quickly and I couldn't keep up with what he was saying. I had to constantly replay the video which became tiresome. Clearly, there's important information to be shared, but please speak more slowly so viewers can keep up with you.
Two useful customizations I created are: in a ribbon tab I created called "My Buttons" I added a Sort button to sort data by various criteria (Just like in Excel-huge time saver), a Page Break Before button, and the Convert Table to Text and Convert Text to Table buttons, which save a lot of time hunting and pecking around. You can also create Symbol shortcuts for symbols you use often (like the Euro symbol or British Pound, or other special characters) that will appear automatically when I type CTRL + ####, where the # are whatever numbers you designated. Alternatively, you can memorize the ALT codes for them, like ALT + 0215 for the times symbol (×), a pet peeve for me when lazy people use the ordinary "x" instead, or ALT + 0176 for the degrees symbol (°).
Lots of great features in there! Word is a fantastic program but the fact you have to dig so deep to get access to all of its features just shows how bloated it is with stuff that 90% of people would never use (but then again, if more of these more "niche" features were easier to access, perhaps more people would use them). Thanks for sharing!
Since I have been using MS Word before Windows, I remember some of the keyboard shortcuts. My favorite in Word is Shift+F3 which will rotate the selected text amongst all upper case, all lower case, leading Word character uppercase .
It's always impressive just how many features these programs have. I consider myself to tinker with these programs and know more than the base level yet there is still so much hidden in them.
The advanced find feature has never been a hidden feature. It has been available for approximately 15 years, although it may have been overlooked by some users, it remains an exceedingly powerful tool. 👀💻 I recall your content from a decade ago when you created misleading content for the purpose of gaining views 😜. This caused me to lose faith in you, and I have not watched any of your videos for approximately nine years 🤐. However, it appears that you have learned from your past mistakes and have progressed significantly 🫡. Your current content is incredibly valuable to the community. 👍🎉 Continue to produce exceptional work, Joe. I extend my best wishes for a bright future. 🤗✨

Thank you, Joe. YES spelunking tours of the browsers and more will be appreciated!
Good job, learned a few good things to remember.
Lots of great features in there! Word is a fantastic program but the fact you have to dig so deep to get access to all of its features just shows how bloated it is with stuff that 90% of people would never use (but then again, if more of these more "niche" features were easier to access, perhaps more people would use them). Thanks for sharing!

Excelent video. Thank you.
Amazing! I did not know 95% of these.
Alt+select also works in most modern code editors/IDEs. It's a godsend, especially what it comes to things like refactoring.
how did i find this video so fast
maybe you got recommended it really fast? maybe youtube wanted you to find it fast, and that's the only reason you found it fast?
sounds reasonable

Since I have been using MS Word before Windows, I remember some of the keyboard shortcuts. My favorite in Word is Shift+F3 which will rotate the selected text amongst all upper case, all lower case, leading Word character uppercase .
Thank you, Joe. These tips help me a lot
Way cool. Thanks for the tips.

Great video, learned a lot of cool stuff!!
Coolest thing I watched today 🎉
Great cideo thanks for sharing.
It's always impressive just how many features these programs have. I consider myself to tinker with these programs and know more than the base level yet there is still so much hidden in them.
Excelente video! Thanks!
How to get the version of Word you use!
The advanced find feature has never been a hidden feature. It has been available for approximately 15 years, although it may have been overlooked by some users, it remains an exceedingly powerful tool. 👀💻
I recall your content from a decade ago when you created misleading content for the purpose of gaining views 😜. This caused me to lose faith in you, and I have not watched any of your videos for approximately nine years 🤐. However, it appears that you have learned from your past mistakes and have progressed significantly 🫡. Your current content is incredibly valuable to the community. 👍🎉
Continue to produce exceptional work, Joe. I extend my best wishes for a bright future. 🤗✨
Very cool . . . Thanks a million ! !
Please please please do the rest of office suites.
