The pinion angle thread: A helpful hint

Looking through the pinion angle thread gave me a headache, so I'd like to provide a helpful hint for most of you fine folks. If you hold down the alt/option key and hit the "0" key on your keyboard, you can use the degree character. (At least I can; if you can't then too bad)

See: 4º, there it is...

4º, there it is again... no magic involved.

One more time ...4º

So stop using * instead of º, you look like idiots.

You're Welcome!

Warning: Above post may contain good-natured ribbing, sarcasm and general smart-assery. Don't get your knickers in a knot. It's all in good fun.

Another way to get the degree symbol, is to hold down the ALT key, and type 167.

4º

Watch out Post...that's a rough crowd on that thread... It's good no one knows where you really are...

4, Not here brother! Here Alt/option and 0 key = 4, as just shown.

For me, its 4 + alt 0176 on the right hand numbers pad. 4°

To much Extra work for me, when I can just do, 4*

And , most will/should understand that.



For me 1 Extra poke, VS 5 Extra pokes on the key board.

Not a idiot here, just lazy.


Appreciate your concern and Humor. But, Your Pinion angle ** help stuff isn't helping me. °°°° LOL

But. I will review the other ways that people have been successful at. * vs °

Same here... its not worth my time.. everyone seems to know
what this means *... so I'll continue to use it

Perhaps a keyboard shortcut is in order.

P.S. My apologies for inadvertently referring to you as an idiot. I'll add you to the lazy column instead.

Your º of humor is appreciated.

I rolled past your place (generally) Sunday morning on the way out of town. My work is done until the next riot.

You get what you get... -4* + You Deflection...

Doesn't work for me. Someone else told me the "degree" key was beside the "any" key but I haven't been able to find it.

Try This; Push/hold the Alt key, then type 0176 on the Far right numeral pad, then release. And Wallya °

° :-}

Settle down, "Richard"!

I am 2* from Kevin Bacon (my wife is 1).

Adding the 0 to the 176 gives me a funky symbol. ALT and 167 on the keypad works for me.
