A Windows tip for you coin picture detectives

krankykranky Posts: 8,709 ✭✭✭
Here's a little trick that's handy when you want to compare photos in two different windows.

Go to the taskbar and click the button for the first window. Then hold down CTRL while clicking the taskbar button for the second window. Right-click and a menu will pop up, with options including "Tile Horizontally" and "Tile Vertically".

I was doing this to look at the photos in oreville's post and it occurred to me that a lot of people might not know about it. Of course, you can always resize and drag windows around manually, but it's a handy shortcut.

New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Right clicking on an open area of the taskbar will give you more options, including an undo command. Have fun!
