SignWriting List<br>November 14, 2009<br><br>Hi Charles -<br>If you save the signs to your desktop, you can always delete them from your desktop after they are placed in Microsoft Word. Sorry I cannot help you more than this...computers do work differently, especially when it comes to drag and drop...and meanwhile the problem you are having does not happen on my computer, so saving the signs to your desktop might help...I don't know what else to say!<br><br>You can also right-click and choose Copy Image in the pull-down menu, and then use Paste in Word...have you tried that?...<br><br>Val ;-)<br><br>--------<br><br><br>On Nov 14, 2009, at 3:55 PM, Charles Butler wrote:<br><br>> In the one hand monkey, I can right click and drag the image directly to the word document.

each graphic on the desk top as a separate name, that takes space on my computer that I don't want to "save as" simply move them directly from the dictionary into a file, else I might as well just copy the dictionary one sign at a time as a whole, missing the whole point of having a SignPuddle on line, not on my desktop.<br>> <br>> Charles<br>> <br>> <br>> From: SignWriting <<a ymailto="mailto:signwriting@mac.com" href="mailto:signwriting@mac.com">signwriting@mac.com</a>><br>> To: SignWriting List <<a ymailto="mailto:sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu" href="mailto:sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu">sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu</a>><br>> Cc: SignWriting <<a ymailto="mailto:signwriting@mac.com" href="mailto:signwriting@mac.com">signwriting@mac.com</a>><br>> Sent: Sat, November 14, 2009 11:57:47 AM<br>> Subject: Re: [sw-l] Updating graphics only and other signs<br>> <br>> SignWriting List<br>> November 14,
