Lets give him one of these 

[smiley=smiley-gen101.gif]

A bit of trivia...
I have noticed people mostly use the asterisk for degrees when using CWV.
Pressing CTRL + D will give you a degree symbol ( looks prettier ;) )

:-*

Rod
Using ctrl d in the reply box yielded this add to favorites box

I will do it now 360*    or ctrl d

I tried it in the reply box and got the same.

I wonder if opening the character map would work? by using a select, copy, and paste I can get this - - 25 °

Rod, So that is the command just in CWV for the degree symbol?

Thanks,

Sorry bout dat. I saw the compression waveform viewer images that Lou posted and thought I would quickly butt in. :)

Mick,

my bad thought you were using CWV  [smiley=embarassed.gif]

However in IrfanView and probably in most programs by using the Character Map the degree symbol can be selected, copied, & pasted in.

OR by using the keyboard "Alt + 0176".

like this:           1234°

here is one of Lou's captures done with IrfanView

Oh No dare I try

Maybe another 24 hrs of  [smiley=hairpull.gif]


ALT+0176 on my keyboard is    360¯[smiley=laughing2.gif]

on mine =   degree °

thanks for that Dave  :D

degree°  360°  I am now a 100% 360°certified key board nerd :)

Press "Alt" key and hold then press 0176 - [disclaimer: this does not work in some programs]
it worked here yesterday but today I get the keyboard beep  >:(

or open the Character map, find the degree symbol, click it to select, click copy, and then go to where you want it and paste it.

12345°

You guys had me as frustrated as Mick yesterday....

Till I discovered that to do this you have to have the numlok on and it only works with a 10key side panel or the 789uiojklm keys used as a numeric keypad.  It does not work with the number keys across the top of the keyboard.

Hi Tom and All,

If your laptop has the smaller / different colored numbers on part of the QUERT keys if you press "Alt", "Fn" (function) & hold those two keys, and then press 0176 it should work

like this °

dave

Nope.

I have to numlok and then alt QUERT key numbers.

Tom,

I'm using a Dell so maybe other computators have a different way of doing it  [smiley=idunno.gif]

dave

That is so f ing cool °

Preston,

If you open the character map there are dozens of symbols and foreign language symbols for each font - hope I don't offend anybody cus I don't know what some of these mean.

only got the character map to work, but i think i'll stick to the asterisk sign for degrees ;D.

Hello Larry,

The degree symbol in Arial font is near the top in character map.

Some of the symbols that look like degree mean something else. Character map should display what it means when you click on it.

Did ya see any rolling pins lately?

hahaha!  surprisingly, no.  we celebrated our one year anniversary on the 10th of this month  8-).  i took an old clock, and put one of our wedding pictures inside.  would you believe i got the idea from the nerdz stickers thread?  ;)

I have often wanted to write the degree symbol and lamented there not being one I can use on the laptop.
  DaveyK, where might I find the character map?

all programs > accessories > system tools

once you find it you can always right click, drag, & drop onto the desktop to make a shortcut there

HTH

dave

Thank you DaveyK, 360° all the way around.

another one that we can use is "Alt" + 0181 for µ

like:
10µs
10µv
10µA

I like to capture my secondary waves with a 1µs sample interval or less

Thanks Dave 

same here 1µs or less  [smiley=happy.gif]

alt + 236 = ∞ infinity
alt + 0177 = ± plus minus

testing..

100µs
360°
10±1
∞

This is
A Multiple

Test
With 5 Lines...

Ctrl A=auto highlights all text to copy to clipboard :D
Ctrl B=±
Ctrl C=¢
Ctrl D=°
Ctrl [email protected]
Ctrl M=μ
here's my scheme so far.. 8-)
