    The Music Notepad is a system for entering common music notation based on 2D gestural input. The key feature of the system is the look-and-feel of the interface which approximates sketching music with paper and pencil. A probability-based interpreter integrates sequences of gestural input to perform the most common notation and editing operations. The paper presented at UIST '98 described the user's model of the system, the components of the high-level recognition system, and a discussion of the evolution of the system including user feedback.

On the Insert menu, click Screen Clipping, and then drag the pointer to create a rectangular selection around the content on your screen that you want to capture.
  • To see when a block of notes was last written or updated, right-click the paragraph handle preceding the text in any note container. The last two items on the shortcut menu will show you when the text was created or updated, and by whom.
  • To move an item, such as a block of text or a picture, so that it appears over or under another item on the page, hold down ALT while moving the item.
  • You can easily modify the templates that are included with OneNote and create a custom design of your own. Start by applying an existing template to a new, blank page, and then add or change anything you like. On the Format menu, click Templates. In the Templates task pane, click Save current page as a template.

Add a list of names and corresponding text colors at the top of the shared note page so that session participants know who is typing or writing.

  • 1. Defrag regularly
  • 2. Dim your screen
  • 3. Cut down on programs running in the background.
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • 4. Cut down external devices
  • 5. Add more RAM - This will allow you to process more with the memory your laptop has, rather than relying on virtual memory. 
  • 6. Run off a hard drive rather than CD/DVD - As power consuming as hard drives are, CD and DVD drives are worse. 
  • 7.  Keep the battery contacts clean: 
  • 8. Take care of your battery - Exercise the Battery.
  • Also, do not let a Li-On battery completely discharge. (Discharing is only for older batteries with memory effects)
  • 9. Hibernate not standby - Although placing a laptop in standby mode saves some power and you can instantly resume where you left off, it doesn’t save anywhere as much power as the hibernate function does. 
  • 10. Keep operating temperature down
  • 11. Set up and optimize your power options - Go to ‘Power Options’ in your windows control panel and set it up so that power usage is optimized (Select the ‘max battery’ for maximum effect).
  • 12. Don’t multitask - Do one thing at a time when you’re on battery. 
  • 13. Go easy on the PC demands - The more you demand from your PC.  Passive activities like email and word processing consume much less power than gaming or playing a DVD.  If you’ve got a single battery charge - pick your priorities wisely.
  • 14. Get yourself a more efficient laptop
  • 15. Prevent the Memory Effect - If you’re using a very old laptop, you’ll want to prevent the ‘memory effect’ - Keep the battery healthy by fully charging and then fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks. Exceptions to the rule are Li-Ion batteries (which most laptops have) which do not suffer from the memory effect.
  • Bonus Tip #1: Turn off the autosave function. 
  • While it saves battery life in the beginning, you will want to make sure your work is saved when your battery dies.
  • Bonus Tip #2: Lower the graphics use.
