Thank you, this was helpful. I was looking to share a tutorial with friends on how to use google docs.I suggest that in future tutorials start from logging into gmail and launching google docs from the application launcher as this will be helpful to a beginner

Ooooops! Tab Stops are a little shaky!
After having placed the Tab Stop try inserting a tab just before the first word in each line "separately" and see the difference.
Tabs are an under-used and super powerful tool and I am constantly surprised how misunderstood they are.
Great video so far apart from "tabs". I've learnt a ton of useful stuff. Thanks.

[royalruthy]

[vishnusuraj]

Thank you very helpful and educational learnt a lot I use google docs everyday

[joanrizza]

In the page navigation section, it would be nice to have more instruction than to "pop open" the exercise file. It took me an additional 20 minutes to figure out how to do that. Otherwise, so far, so good.

[oskargronvold]

I understand that voice typing is very good for you who made this tutorial but if you for

In Google Docs, how do I delete a blank page (how do I prevent the blank pages from appearing again), how do I lock formatting on/to a specific page, how do I lock the formatting for/on the entire document, how do I select and use a font like wingdings, how do I wrap text to the cell of a table, how do I drag and re-size tables as needed without them messing up the next page?
