so what do you think of when you hear the words microsoft office
periodically pulling up word to pretend you're writing this video
finding that exciting new powerpoint transition that will surely keep your
audience's attention your brief love affair with clippy whose time in this
world was cut so tragically short
well microsoft sponsored this video and asked us to pick out some new stuff to
think of from microsoft's latest offering office 2016 which has a lot of
tweaks that you might not be aware of in addition to those cute little
backgrounds up on the title bar starting off office now offers a
real-time collaboration feature similar to what you'd see on google docs so if
you're working on a group project and need a more powerful word processor word
will let you see what everyone else is typing as it happens or just how much
chad is slacking off because he figures the rest of you are going to get him an easy a
speaking of impressive looking projects office 2016 offers new chart styles if
you've gotten tired of the plain jane bar
pie and line you can now create tree map and sunburst
style charts which are becoming increasingly common for large data sets
on sites like wikipedia and reddit there are also map charts that allow you to
highlight countries or states in different intensities according to
whatever metric you like like population income or a number of Techquickie
subscribers and even the basics got a facelift excel
2016 features a forecasting tool for line charts to make future projections
based on past trends i mean it obviously
can't project game-changing occurrences in the future like a sudden stock crash
or your decision to go on a diet if you've been using excel to track the
cost associated with your mountain dew consumption but it does use a standard
algorithm to keep things realistic and if you're devising your own
algorithms for something like math or economics class well the ink to math
feature in onenote 2016 allows you to scribble formulas and equations with a
tablet pen and then convert them to actual computer readable expressions
then whether it's basic algebra or calculus it can actually even solve them
for you there are some more ink features too like editor which enables striking
through words to delete them circling words to select them and replaying
sketches that you made with your tablet pen enabling others to see animations if
you'd rather express an idea that way and for those not using Windows inc
there are a number of other interesting cross-platform features like the ability
to use vector graphics that look great at any size directly in office
applications built-in background removal for photos and new icon sets that
provide a slicker solution than copy pasting icons from other programs or
just using wingdings all the time for everything
and on the subject of putting interesting visuals into your office
documents powerpoint now has a feature that lets you screen record any portion
of your display and then insert it directly into your presentation this is
handy for demonstrations or tutorials and quickstart can actually pre-fill a
presentation on lots of different topics
potentially saving you time that you would have spent hunting down basic
facts and coming up with an overall outline
just make sure that that's not a shortcut that your teacher or professor
would frown upon and speaking of frowning you certainly wouldn't be if
you were using office on the hp pavilion x360 15. a new pen and touch enabled two
in one or should i call it a four and one well so it's got laptop mode stand
mode tent mode and tablet mode it's a versatile solution for work home or
working at home or as i like to call it homework in fact speaking of homework
students can save 10 on the pavilion x360 15 right now at the microsoft store
both online and at any brick and mortar location
speaking of physical versatility
that and a student discount aren't the only highlights the pavilion x360 15
