I'm a biophysicist who escaped academia to work for Wolfram Research (in the UK) as a Technical Presenter - all opinions and badly optimised code my own.

Notebook UI: Autocompletion - Display function arguments when typing? @murray that's strange, I use Cmd+K for Options frequently - have you changed any autocompletion preferences? It's interesting to note the Documentation doesn't mention this shortcut, Hyperlink["paclet:tutorial/UsingTheInputAssistant"], I found it by accident. |

Notebook UI: Autocompletion - Display function arguments when typing? To chime in, with M9 you can get a list of possible (but not all) Options for a function by pressing Ctrl+K (or Cmd+K) after the minimum number of arguments are provided to the function: i.e. Plot[x,{x,1,10}, then Ctrl+K |

Triangle mapped on a sphere in $\mathbb R^3$? @JM cheers, there should be cheat sheets on you experts. |

Triangle mapped on a sphere in $\mathbb R^3$? As it's a simple transform it's not really appropriate, but do you know CoordinateTransform (further to the deprecated Vector Analysis package) exists as of 9? |

My Data has negative and positive numbers, can I still use it to get the PDF? @ssch by default SignificanceLevel for DistributionFitTest is set at 0.05 but you can just add the Option to the function to change the cut off. |

My Data has negative and positive numbers, can I still use it to get the PDF? @ssch, As far as I understand DistributionFitTest gives you back the p-value from the test which is going to vary for each set but most of the results of the actual test are what you expect sets=100;size=10000;data=RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[x,{sets,size}];Tally[(DistributionFitTest[#,Automatic,"ShortTestConclusion"] & /@ data)] |

My Data has negative and positive numbers, can I still use it to get the PDF? @Rojo, that definitely wastes less time than what I wrote! But if @BobBrooks is new to this he might find the above syntax more versatile as you can then go to ask Probability[-2 < x < 2, Distributed[x, NormalDistribution[a, b]]] |

My Data has negative and positive numbers, can I still use it to get the PDF? I don't think any of the distributions care about positive data, this isn't worth a separate answer but if you assume your data is normally distributed you could ask; Expectation[x, Distributed[x,EstimatedDistribution[RandomInteger[{-10, 10},10],NormalDistribution[mean, sd]]]] or assume any of these Names["*Distribution"] |

How can I make an InputField[] with a proper newline/carriage return? This solves a long standing question of mine, so thanks! I made an edit for it to handle Shift-Return: EventHandler[
InputField[Dynamic[demo2], String, FieldHint -> "Quarter 1 Turnover",
Alignment -> {Left, Center}], {{"MenuCommand",
"HandleShiftReturn"} :>
FrontEndExecute[{NotebookWrite[InputNotebook[], "\n", After]}],
"ReturnKeyDown" :>
FrontEndExecute[{NotebookWrite[InputNotebook[], "\n", After]}]}] |

Initialization Time Out (Weighted Financial Data) Understandable, I usually employ common sense when building things up and then it goes out the window when I attempt to dump everything within a Manipulate. DynamicModule would have provided me with more flexibility but I wanted a quick solution. Thanks again for commenting. |

Initialization Time Out (Weighted Financial Data) Thanks @cormullion, I guess I just need to adjust my DatePlus value so that "a while" is "a little while". |

Initialization Time Out (Weighted Financial Data) @LeonidShifrin, I'd like to be able to use this Manipulate without having Initialization Cells if at all possible. Cormulion's answer below is probably the fastest way to do this. |

Inheriting Stylesheets when using CreateDocument Well, I should've thought of that. Thanks, John! |
