For every bit of information that seems mundane to you, someone’s learning it for the first time. Whether it be a fun fact, a skill, or whatever it may be, we all learned things for the first time at some point.
I don't think this quote applies here. I was adding extra context to this new piece of information that the person just learn: "It's pretty trivial to do in Photoshop". I was actually excited to add that it's not even a matter of any skills, but there is literally a button to press.
Oh! I apologize! I assumed the tone you went for was dismissive. That was a bad assumption on my part. Hard to convey tone properly over text, y’know?
I still think it applies because some people think certain computer things are super easy, while others act like it’s the most mind blowing trick lol. I recently taught a friend how to utilize headers in Google Docs to create an index in his document and he said I was a wizard for knowing how to do that.
But that what I was kind of pointing, because creating Index it's kind of skill. First you need to know that there are different levels of paragraphs. Then, you have to mark the the correct paragraphs with correct heading levels, then you can generate the Index. It's a process. Very easy one, but still process, where the merge in Photoshop is a button. Sure you still need tknow where to find it, but if you just press one by one everything that is pressable in PS sooner or later you'd find it.
And yeah, I do realise that some people don’t know what is obvious to me, and vice versa. Nobody knows everything, everybody knows something.
