A.
Synchronous Scrolling
B.
View Side by Side
C.
Columns
D.
Split Window
Explanation:
The columns feature in Microsoft Word 2010 is used in a document to split text into columns. Text in
a document can be split in one, two, left, or right columns. This feature helps when it is required to
write documents in columns. The columns feature can be customized in multiple ways.Answer A is incorrect. In Microsoft Word 2010, the synchronous scrolling feature is used to
synchronize scrolling of two word documents so that they can be scrolled together. Whenever a user
displays two documents side by side, the synchronous scrolling button becomes available. To enable
this feature, it is necessary to enable the View Side by Side feature. The synchronous scrolling
feature cannot be customized, it can either be on or off.
Whenever two documents are viewed side by side, synchronous scrolling is turned on by default.
These documents can be scrolled together, regardless of which window is scrolling currently. When
this feature is turned off, a user can scroll the document in each window independently.
Answer D is incorrect. The split window feature is used for editing a Microsoft Word 2010
document. It helps a user to see a document in two different views. It allows a user to refer to one
view while changing the document in another view. When a document is split, each view works
independent of the other. A user can scroll in one view, while the other view remains in the same
place. A user can split a document in two ways:
1.By using the ribbon: Scroll to the page where a user wants to split the document and then click
View > Window > Split.To remove the split, click on the Remove Split button in the same group on the ribbon.
2.By using the divider: This is the quickest way to split a document. There should be a “divider” at
the top of the vertical scrollbar.
