Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing: User's Guide

Windows Title Bar
The Windows Title Bar is always available at the top right corner of the Mavis Beacon Teaches
Typing screen except within Class Sign In and Registration. There are two functions available on
the Windows Title Bar.
Functions:
1. On the right end of the title bar is the Close button, which is a box, containing an “X.”
Clicking here closes the program the same as the Exit menu bar choice.
2. The button to the left is the minimize button. Clicking here will reduce the program to a
button on your taskbar.
In most places in Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing, the Menu Bar is accessible and available. The
Menu Bar is located on the bottom of the Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing screen. When the Menu
Bar choices are highlighted they are accessible by clicking on them. However, when a Menu Bar
Choice is grayed out it is not accessible in that screen.
Menu Bar Choices:
1. Clicking Go To allows you access to the Classroom, Speed Test, Game Hallway, and Media
Center. The Media Center is only available in Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing Deluxe.
2. Progress allows you to access the Summary, Key Proficiency, and Progress Over Time tabs.
3. Click Settings to change your Audio, User, and Typing options.
4. Help allows you to view Quick Help, About, and Finger Positions.
5. Pause is only available when you are accessing the Games, Practice Area, or Lesson Areas.
Click Pause to choose End Game, End Practice, End Lesson, Start Over, or Resume.
6. Click Exit to close the program or start as a different user. Exit is unavailable when you are in
the Registration.
