Q&A- How'd You Do That?

Q: Chelelew posted a comment wanting to know how  what report options in HST+ I'm using to get the assignment sheet we use (and that I post on my blog.)

A:  Once I've clicked the REPORTS tab I click the ASSIGNMENTS radio button (third radio button down under the "assignments" header, on the left. A pop-up screen will appear at which point I usually type something into the title field (an outing that day, a riddle for the day or just a nice comment to my daughter.) I've captured the pop-up window to share here so that you can see what settings I have checked.

I use the "Grey shading" option so that the DIRECTIONS FIELD (in the assignment grid/LP screen) will show up more clearly, different than the actual assignments. I adjust the font and font size of the assignment body according to how easily it can be read. Sometimes there will be 1-3 assignment items that fall over to a second page. In that case I'll wiggle things around (like putting shorter directions in place and moving them to the PLC field instead) and make the font smaller. Additionally, I have my footer section of the reports to a font size of 2, font of GARAMOND in order to save ink and space.

Hope that spells things out clearly enough! As always, if you have questions, about this or most anything else, please leave a comment and I'll try to post a Q&A for it!
