More Screen Real Estate for Netbooks (F11 trick)

by Rusti

I know while we were working after school a few people were talking about how the screen on the netbooks was small while working. Great tip I just learned…. While you are in internet explorer press the F11 key on your keyboard. The address bar hides and lets you see more work area. Then when you want it back just press F11 again. Super Cool.

Also pretty cool… in Excel if you are making a chart – you can put all your data in and highlight it. After you highlight it press F11 and it automatically makes your chart without having to go through the whole chart wizard. You can change the chart type by clicking the chart button on the top after the chart is made. It automatically makes a bar chart but is one key stroke to change to pie or whatever.

NOTE: works in Firefox, too!
