Microsoft PowerPoint 2007

Equalize Text Height for a Cartoonish Effect

SUMMARY: Need another way for text to stand out in a PowerPoint 2007 slide show?

Picture this scenario - you need to perform a quick calculation in Windows but your Desktop is full and you don't want to open a new window. Plus, you can't find a calculator anywhere next to your computer desk / table. What do you do?

Desktop Calculator, an older application, may be what you need. This program adds a simple calculator directly on the Windows Taskbar that can perform basic math functions. It also handles percentages, square roots, inverses, flipping between negative and positive numbers, and can perform decimal to hexadecimal conversion.

After installing the application a help document appears showing how to enable the Taskbar if it is not visible (right-click an empty area of the Taskbar, choose "Toolbars", then "Taskbar Calculator"). It also lists keyboard shortcuts.

Enabling Taskbar Calculator

The software can be downloaded at the following link:
