A little Trick

I came across this key board shortcut in a tech journal. I was surprised that I didn't know this earlier.

"This shortcut is probably the most useful of all. It
involves using the Shift key when selecting long lists or text
passages.

Let's
say you want to select a section of this newsletter
covering several paragraphs. The way most users would do this
would be to left mouse click at the start, hold the mouse button
down and then move the mouse curser to the end of the text to be
selected.

That's
fine but if the text covers more than one screen it can
get tricky. Here's a much better way.

First,
left click at the start of the text and release the mouse
button. Then scroll down to the end of the text and left click
again while holding down Shift key. All the text in between will
be selected.

Try
it now on this newsletter. Neat eh?

The
same technique works well when selecting items on a list."

I can see myself using this keyboard shortcut quite a bit. Pretty neat right? Here is the complete list of all keyboard shortcuts.

Alright Tschüss! now
