You've probably heard this by now.  "AutoMagic" is a big breakthrough, a truly transformational feature introduced in Version 5 of Total Eclipse. Breakthrough, you say? Transformational? The natural response is to ask, "What is it and what will it do for me?" Will it make me richer and thinner, because you can't be "too" either of those. Will it make me soar like an eagle, shine like a full moon, roll like a rock star?

Not exactly. Sometimes you just need to use certain features in order to appreciate how truly revolutionary they are. But unless you start using it, and using it the right way, you'll never know. So while it may not make you richer, thinner, or shinier, we do know that this thought will hit you: Why would I ever NOT want to take advantage of AutoMagic?

It's like having a GPS built into Eclipse. Wherever you are, it knows what you're doing and suggests the ten most likely things you may need to do next. Well, we certainly don't want such great help to go to waste, which is why we're focusing on what AutoMagic can do for you.

"Autobrief" sounds like an alternative description for a Smart Car, but in reality it's an incredibly useful automatic brief system invented by Advantage Software's inimitable Jeremy Thorne. With AutoBrief on, Eclipse tracks your realtime writing and prompts you with briefs that you can use on the fly. In simple terms, when it sees unfamiliar terminology, it suggests a brief. Even better, the brief is immediately usable.  So if that brain surgeon or DNA expert is beating you up with long, complex terminology, well, AutoBrief to the rescue!  Voila! Up on your screen appears a brief for that 28-syllable, finger-twisting medical term so the next time Dr. Big Words utters that phrase, you're prepared.

But it doesn't have to be a ten on the steno-degree-of-difficulty scale for Autobrief to help out. Briefs for street names are always handy, or a brief for someone's odd, multi-syllable name, or a brief for some governmental agency the defendant worked at, or, well, you get the idea. The bottom line is this:  If you write realtime, Autobrief can help you write better.

Since it was first revealed over four years ago, AutoBrief has been continually improved, but Version 5 offers up phenomenal changes that allow you to control its suggestions like never before. So not only will we explore the basics of AutoBrief for those who have never used it, we'll also delve into the many enhancements to AutoBrief since its inception in 2007. These revisions help you get briefs tailored to your writing style, allow you to display more briefs on the screen, preserve and archive your briefs, color code the briefs, help you avoid unwanted briefs and more.  Whether you're brand new to this feature or a seasoned veteran, this is a webinar you do not want to miss.
