AAAAAAARGH. Fuck you too Win 8
Sep. 29th, 2014 10:50 pmSo the Adobe Reader on Win 8 is one of those affairs with no X for you to close the window, it takes up the whole fucking screen and you have to fiddle around the sides for all the other controls and commands and I still hadn't quite figured out how to CLOSE FILES. All this while I was told, just swipe from top to bottom to close the window! But turns out it's not the same as CLOSING A FILE.
So for the last few days I've been figuring out how to do highlighting and annotations in the reader, and thought I was quite getting the hang of it, but then I tried to open another file and Reader was like WOOP! TOO MANY FILES OPEN! CLOSE SOME? And I was like, uh, okay, and closed a couple of them.
EXCEPT it didn't register as having saved my fucking annotations (and in one of them I'd spent a couple of days carefully poring over it and making a lot of highlights). So now I have to fucking re-read two of the three things I've read over the last week and re-do my annotations.
NNGGGHHH. Technology is supposed to get more user-intuitive not fucking harder to use what is the point of all this functionality if it's so fucking hard to learn?
