disappearing cursor
Have you made sure your mouse is connected properly to the back of your computer?  Take it out and re-plug it back in and see if that helps.
America's middle class is disappearing, which (sm)
the country SHOULD be worried about, as we pay most of its bills. The very poor do not, and the rich have too many loopholes.
What cursor?

Yes, the cursor is great!

Thank you Admin for the cute cursor--sm

Expander that lists next to cursor
I would like to know if there is an Expander out there that will actually list the expansion next to our cursors while we type so we do not have to look down at the bottom of the monitor to see the expansion.  I know if the expansions popped up in front of me I would use them more.  Just curious
TechSupport: cursor question....,,sm
Maybe you can also answer my question?

Sometimes my cursor just starts moving all by itself to the right in a remarkable speed!
It only stops when I hit 'scroll lock'; when I release it after some time, it's o.k.

What might cause this?

Thanks for ansering.
involuntary cursor movement
Mine does that on occasion.  It must be an optical mouse.  You can clean the bottom of the mouse and brush off your mouse pad....that helps for me.
Is there a way to synchronize keystrokes with cursor blink?

It seems as if my Keystrokes are made but the cursor landing the typed letter on the screen are not in time, if that makes sense.  It does not happen in wordpad just in the Meditech portion of my program.


I went into control panel and adjusted cursor blink but then it was worse, adjusted time to "fast" on the slide scale but that also made it worse.  Am I doomed to the fact that when I hit a key, the character I typet will appear in a nanosecond as opposed to immediately?


Thank you!


put your cursor on the page break and delete it

The report comes up and you listen and hope the cursor down SM
the page to each point where a correction is required. Some platforms have macros that allow you to jump cursor position to where the voice dictation and vice versa (nice), and some require you to arrow and hop around manually (not so good).

You make word-expander-type macros for the usual corrections so you just drop them in with a couple Keystrokes while you and the dictation are already moving ahead on down the page.

While the computer is learning a dictator, there are many corrections to make. Later on, it's mostly listening, and you speed the dictation up faster and faster, until you're listening to many dictators as fast as you can make their helium-ish little voices out.

Production is much higher than transcription, so the pay per line is less. I think the companies are still figuring out what reasonable production and pay are for their new systems.

Plus, there're new-generation smart-systems being developed out there that are crazy good at understanding the dictators and providing copy requiring very little correction.

I'm one of those who prefers editing, which allows me to cruise thru many more reports and work at a hgiher skill level without the typing. Where it's all heading I don't know, but I'm mostly enjoying the ride, willy-nilly.
Can the Administrator remove the Christmas tree cursor from the other boards? :) nm
