- How do I say that something is perpendicular to something else? Hey folks! My question is: If something is perpendicular to something else... Can I say that one part of a machine is set perpendicularly to another part? (meaning at an angle of 90°) Does that make sense? And more importantly (because I have to correct a text): Can I say that one part of a machine is set square to (or with?) another part? I know that "set square" means something else, so I suppose this is incorrect... I suppose I can delete the "set", so the machine part would just be perpendicular to the other part... Thank you for helping me! :) Best wishes, ElliMay 14, 201840
- Describing > and >>> (or < and <<<) Hey guys! I have an urgent question... At the moment, I am working on a project where I need to describe the following symbols on some buttons: "<" and "<<<" and ">" and ">>>" How would you describe these symbols correctly when they are meant to enable the user to put one item ( via > or <) or all items (via <<< or >>>) from one list to another and vice versa? My approach so far: I've described the buttons "<<<" and ">>>" as the 'buttons with three navigational arrows', and ">" and "<" as the 'buttons with one arrow'. My colleague has described ">" as the 'right arrow key' and "<" as the 'left arrow key'. (This is because the buttons are located between the two lists. I know, "key" is probably technically wrong here, as these are buttons on a screen, but this is another story...) She has found a non-verbal solution to talk about <<< and >>>, which would probably be acceptable. Many thanks!May 30, 201720
- Selecting items in a dropdown menu - "Under" the menu item...? Hey, guys! Can I say "under the menu item 'specifications', you can select the following options..." ? It sounds a bit odd... This has nothing to do with where the selection is located. I just want the user to know what he can select in this particular dropdown menu. If it is wrong, how can I rephrase it? The sentence structure should still be somewhat similar...March 24, 201740
- Hover effect - what makes more sense? Hey, guys! I want to add a hover effect to the pictures on my website. Which expression do you think makes more sense and is easier to understand? "Please hover over the images to see the full scan" or "Please go to the images to see the full scan"? Thanks!February 16, 201760
