Task Bar at Bottom of Screen in Windows 10

[edit]

I assume that after I post this, I will rediscover the answer to it, that I have known in the past. The task bar listing all of the tasks at the bottom of my Windows 10 screen has disappeared, so that I can't readily switch between Chrome (now using for Wikipedia), Microsoft Word, Microsoft Outlook, and a few other things. How do I get the task bar back? Robert McClenon (talk) 01:48, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I *think* (but am not sure) that if you drag the cursor down to the very bottom of the screen, the task bar will un-hide itself. (It has a hide mode which you must have on.) Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 02:13, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If you go to taskbar settings you will have the option to lock, autohide or not, and to position at other places on the screen apart from the bottom. You can get there by pressing the window button, and typing "taskbar". Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:01, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What kind of performance questions are there in CompTIA Network+ (N10-006)?

Transposing Excel

[edit]

I have material in Excel that I would like to transpose the axes on (i.e. switch the aisle and column axes). Excel has a "paste special" function that does this, but it doesn't do it very well. For example, a lot of the formatting gets jumbled and the formatting (especially drawn cell borders) is essentially the part that I want most of all. I could copy the selection and paste it elsewhere as a picture (and rotate it), but I'd much prefer to have it stay in Excel format when I'm done. Is there a way to tweak the way that the "paste special" works or maybe a third party piece that could do it? It would be an enormous chore to redraw everything manually.

With LibreOffice Calc you can transpose while retaining format and cell borders. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:26, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you; I'll give that a shot. Matt Deres (talk) 19:05, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
