In office 2013 under windows 10, the text cursor appears to glide across the page smoothly, instead of advancing a character width at a time when I’m typing. I actually find this rather disconcerting, and watching it gives me something akin to motion sickness and screws up my typing big-time. Existe-t-il un moyen de disable this feature?
Well, yes. There are two ways of doing this.
One is described in many places (here, for one) and goes like this:
-
In regedit, naviguez vers
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common -
If there’s no
Graphicskey under thatCommonkey, faites un clic droit sur the Common key et sélectionnez New > Key. Type inGraphicsfor the key name. -
With the
Graphicskey selected, faites un clic droit sur the right side of the editor and create a new DWORD value. Name itDisableAnimation. -
Finally, double-cliquez sur the
DisableAnimationvalue and change the value to1. Hit OK and exit the editor, then restart Windows for it to take effect.
Notez que for Office 2016, the DWORD key is under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Graphics and it should be called DisableAnimations (plural).
The other way is through the System Performance Settings.
-
Open “System” (by typing Win+Pause)
-
Cliquez sur le “Advanced system settings” in the top left.
-
In the “System Properties” window (don’t you just love consistency?), allez dans the “Advanced” tab and cliquez sur le “Settings” button in the first section, “Performance”.
-
In the “Performance Options” window, on the “Visual Effects” tab, deselect the first option, “Animate controls and elements inside windows”. You may want to disable a bunch of other useless animations here, too, but don’t disable the “Smooth edges of screen fonts”. Curiously, you don’t have to restart Windows if you do it this way.
Modification : The latter method may look very different on Windows 10, sorry I missed that part.
