How can copied calculations be made relative rather than absolute?

Frequently I like to copy a recurring item from a previous entry, change the date and assume all will be well. But Numbers 3.2.2 also copies the calculations as absolute rather than relative. That is a calculation of previous balance plus a credit minus a debit is referencing the copied balance, credit and debits rather the balance, credit and debits in the new location, thus throwing the calculations off.
Supplementary question:
Is there a fast way to correct the wrong calculations once made? A fast way to restore an orderly sequence one row referencing the previous row's balance and the current row's credits and debits?

Hi Wanapitei
Have you tried this?
Click on a "lozenge" (A2 in this example) to see the contextual menu.
Clicking on Preserve Row or Preserve Column will turn on (or turn off) the $ sign in the formula. That toggles between Absolute and Relative references.
Regards,
Ian.

How can I use "t3://becluster:6001" rather than "t3://dcsv02,dcsv01:6001"

          I have 2 machines in a cluster (dcsv01 and dcsv02) (HP UNIX with weblogic server
          5.1 sp8) and 1 Windows PC with weblogic 5.1 sp10.
          I try to make a t3 connection between the PC and the cluster of machines.
          On the Windows PC I have the following configuration for the
          "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\Hosts" :
          171.1.70.61     becluster
          171.1.70.62     becluster
          where
          "171.1.70.61 is dcsv01 and
          171.1.70.62 is dcsv02 "
          If I connect my PC to the cluster with :
          hp.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001"); :
          I have a great failover mechanism : if any of the machine (dcsv01 or dcsv02) are
          down the requests are routed to the other one.
          BUT!! If I connect my PC to the cluster with :
          hp.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://becluster:6001"); :
          I have a not great failover mechanism :
          say that my windows hosts file looks like :
          171.1.70.61(dcsv01)     becluster
          171.1.70.62(dcsv02)     becluster
          then if dcsv02 is down then all requests are routed to dcsv01 and that is fine.
          BUT!! if dcsv01 is down then I got on my PC the
          "Bootstrap unable to get a t3 connection to dcsv01" exception and failover does
          not work. (not the way that it does with t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001 )
          So how can I use
          "t3://beclsuter:6001" rather than
          "t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001" with the same failover service????

How can I download to the desktop rather than preview, preview is a nuisance

How can I download items to my desktop rather than "preview"? Preview is a nuisance.

You can set up a default download location through your browser(s) Preferences.
If you do not want Preview to open the files, do the following:
Highlight your file>File>Get Info>
In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
Select the application you want to open the file with.
Click the "Change All..." button if you want to "Use this application to open all documents like this.”
==========================
Short cut:
Control mouse click (right mouse click if available), Open With...-> Other
Pick Preview on a PDF document, and make sure to check Always Open With before hitting Open.
Thanks to a brody for the above short cut.

How can I file at last location rather than location of current file?

I have Abobe Reader X. In the old Adobe, when I saved a file, it took me to the last folder I was in, not the location of the current file. Thus far, I have not been able to find out how to get Adobe Reader X to do this. I even asked work help desk for help and their solution to unclick 'Automatically save document changes to temp file' worked once.
Is it possible? This is what I want.
Example:
I open file that is saved at Y:Scanned Files and save it at
X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Basenjis. I open the next file that is at Y:Scanned Files and click on File:Save As/PDF and window opens to save at Y:Scanned Files rather than at X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Basenjis, where I just was. I want to save file at X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Afghans so instead of just one click, I now have to go through six. Now imagine you have 30 or 40 documents you have to save. That's minimum 180 clicks versus 30. A big difference. And if you multiply it further by daily and weekly, it's a lot.
How can I get Adobe Reader X to open the 'save as' window at the last location rather than the current file's address? I also have Adobe Acrobat, but can't figure out how to get it work in that either.
I do not like Adobe Reader X. Unfortunately, it got downloaded automatically at work.
Another complaint I have is when I have Adobe Acrobat open and I click on a pdf to open, rather than open in Adobe Acrobat, it opens in Adobe Reader X (which was not the case with the previous Reader). If I want to open a doc in Acrobat, I have to go to Acrobat and File/Open, which is a pain.
Another complaint is, why do you have 'save as' and then 'pdf' or 'text'? This is another time consuming click I have to make. Add it to the 180 I'm already making above and you can see why I'm extremely unhappy and frustated with this version of Adobe.
Please let me know if the above is feasible or not and if it is, how to do it. If it isn't feasible, please make the above adjustments to Reader Y and put it out pronto. Thank you.

How can I sent photos as attachment rather than embedded in the email?

For work, I need to send photos to my editor via email. In Mail, the jpgs automatically become embedded in the body of the the email, but my editor would prefer to receive them as attachments. Is there any way to send photos as attachments in Mail, rather than embedded email itself?

LaSylphide, the Mail forum shows up as one of the categories within the "Mac OS and System Software" forum. Click on whichever version of OSX you're using, and you'll see the list of categories.
There are several threads on this topic, and I've seen three solutions:
1. Check the "Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" box. Some people say it works, some say it doesn't.
2. Open Terminal and type:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Some people say this works, some say it doesn't.
3. In Mail > Preferences > Composing, make sure "Message Format" is set to "Plain Text." Once again, some say this works, some say it doesn't.
Hopefully, one of those will solve your problem. There may also be a setting in your editor's email program that would solve it, but I'm assuming that's a Windows app and I haven't worked with Windows since 1993, so I'm no help there.

How can I print every other page rather than every page?

I want to print certain pages of documents because some have information on page that I don't need. But I can't find a way to select certain pages (like 1,3). The print add-on mentioned in another question didn't work ... didn't even given an option to select pages. Chrome and Explorer both give this option. Why not on Firefox? There must be a way to do it without having to add in something. This is pretty basic.

Your question is no way related to Firefox OS. That's why as a moderator I moved it to '''Firefox for Desktop'''. For some reason that I don't know why... It was asked in the '''Firefox OS''' product. Another volunteer or paid staff member will respond to you shortly. The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox ''Help'' menu and select ''Submit Feedback...'' or use [https://input.mozilla.org/feedback this link]. Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.
If not, please be patient as this issue was posted in the wrong product forum therefore, moving it back puts it back in its place so you can get the proper support that you need regarding printing every other page.

Can Layers be given RELATIVE, rather than ABSOLUTE position

I'm having no luck finding an answer to this in HELP. I place
the layer's anchor in a table, then position the layer. If I
subsequently add (or remove) any lines above the anchor, everything
on the page moves down (or up), but the layer stays where it was,
relative to the page, not the anchor.
If there are several layers on the page this means a wholeot
of repositioning every time I do an edit up-page.
Any advice?

This may help you understand positioning a bit -
There are 4 different types of positioning:
Absolute
Relative
Fixed
Static
Here is a brief explanation of each kind of positioning (with
regard to
placement of elements on the page only)....
Position:absolute (or A/P elements)
This does several things -
1. It 'removes' the element from the flow of the code on
the page so that
it can no longer influence the size or position of any other
page element
(except for those contained within it, of course).
2. The absolutely positioned element takes its position from
the position of
its closest PARENT *positioned* element - in the
absence of any explicitly
positioned parent, this will default to the <body> tag,
which is always
positioned
at 0,0 in the browser viewport.
This means that it doesn't matter where in the HTML code the
layer's code
appears (between <body> and </body>), its
location on the screen will not
change (this assumes that you have not positioned the A/P
element within
a table or another A/P element, of course).
Furthermore, the space in
which
this element would have appeared were it not positioned
is not preserved
on the screen. In other words, absolutely positioned elements
don't take
up any space on the page. In fact, they FLOAT over the page.
Position:relative (or R/P elements)
In contrast to absolute positioning, a relatively positioned
page element is
*not* removed from the flow of the code on the page, so
it will use the
spot
where it would have appeared based on its position in
the code as its
zero point reference. If you then supply top, right,
bottom, or left
positions
to the style for this element, those values will be
used as offsets from
its
zero point.
This means that it DOES matter where in the code the
relatively positioned
element appears (, as it will be positioned in that location
(factoring in
the offsets) on the screen (this is true for any placement in
the code).
Furthermore, the space where this element would have
appeared is
preserved in the display, and can therefore affect the
placement of
succeeding elements. This means that the taller a relatively
positioned element is, the more space it forces on the page.
Position:static
As with relative position, static positions also "go with
the flow". An
element with a static position cannot have values for
offsets (top, right,
left, bottom) or if it has them, they will be ignored. Unless
explicitly
positioned, all div elements default to static positioning.
Position:fixed
A page element with this style will not scroll as the page
content scrolls.
Support for this in elements other than page backgrounds is
quirky
There are several other things you need to know:
1. ANY page element can be positioned - paragraphs, tables,
images, lists,
etc.
2. The <div> tag is a BLOCK level tag. This means that
if it is not
positioned or explicitly styled otherwise, a) it will always
begin on a new
line on the screen, and b) it will always force content to a
new line below
it, and c) it will always take up the entire width of its
container (i.e.,
width:100%).
3. The placement of A/P elements *can* affect the BEHAVIOR of
other
elements
on the page. For example, a 'layer' placed over a hyperlink
will mask that
hyperlink.
You can see a good example of the essential difference
between absolute and
relative positioning here -
http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layersdemo.asp
You can see a good demonstration of why using layers for a
page layout tool
is dangerous here -
http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layer-overlap.asp
Based on this, a static div (no longer a 'layer') would be
what you want.

How can i actually REPORT a fault rather than be t...

Hi Folks,
Ive got quite a poor line here, with a lot of noise, occassionally I can hear other conversations and its VERY faint most of the time - so much so I sometimes have to use redial with my mobile just to hear the other person.
(Also to note my SNR on infinity drops to from roughly 6db to <0.5db over about 8 hours..... and then disconnects)
Ive had the line from master socket to pole replaced in the last few years, but at the time the engineer said "the underground cables round here are shocking - they need replacing".
I simply want BT to sort my line!!! I dont even mind PAYING for some new cable to the cab - its about 500 meters, ar at least paying towards it.....
I'd like to know what I can do - who I should contact etc.
Ive used the online 'fault report' and that just comes back with 'no fault found'.....
If i'm at fault (which seems unlikely since im running of a BT installed Master socket, on a newish wire, with no extensions....) then I don't even mind paying the call out fee.
I just want a good quality line and i'm banging my head against a brick wall....
your advice would so greatfully be accepted!!
Best Wishes

Navigation Wizard waypoint relative rather than absolute?

Is there a reason why Wizard.onNavigateTo only checks agains the immediate parent waypoint? This limits the wizard from working across multiple waypoint levels and doesn't work with nested waypoints.
1. Create a wizard with a waypoint called foo.bar containing several children
e.g.
<wizard:Wizard id="myWizard" waypoint="foo.bar">
        <mx:Array>
            <mx:String>foo.bar.step1</mx:String>
            <mx:String>foo.bar.step2</mx:String>
            <mx:String>foo.bar.step3</mx:String>
        </mx:Array>
</wizard:Wizard>
2. Navigating to a destination within foo.bar using the wizard
e.g. foo.bar.step2
in the wizard onNavigateTo it checks that the wizard waypoint equals "bar" instead of "foo.bar" and doesn't update.
Would it be more flexible to check if the target destination is within the wizard and update the currentDestination accordingly? If the target destination is not within the wizard then perhaps the wizard resets currentDestination to null? A better solution would be to use the wizard's waypoint to determine if the currentDestination is reset when a navigateTo event occurs - if the destination is outside the 'scope' of the wizard waypoint (i.e. not a decendant) then set to null, otherwise leave wizard state as is.
in com.adobe.cairngorm.navigation.wizard.Wizard.as
[MessageHandler(selector="navigateTo")]
        public function onNavigateTo(event:NavigationEvent):void
            var qualifiedWaypoint:String = event.waypoint;
            if(_stages.indexOf(event.destination) > -1)
                currentDestination = event.destination;
                wizardChange();
          else
                var commonAncestor:String = getCommonAncestor(_waypoint, qualifiedWaypoint);
                if(commonAncestor != _waypoint)
                    currentDestination = null;
                    wizardChange();
private function getCommonAncestor(destination1:String, destination2:String):String
            var ancestor:String;
            var first : Array = destination1.split( "." );
            var second : Array = destination2.split( "." );
            var length : int = Math.min( first.length , second.length );
            for ( var i : int ; i < length ; i++ )
                if ( first[ i ] != second[ i ] )
                    break;
            ancestor = first.slice( 0 , i ).join( "." );

How can provide parent-child nodes relation ships?

how can provide parent-child nodes relation ships?

I was under the impression that scenegraph is like a JTree. But in JavaFX only leaf node rendering in scenegraph. This situation was confusing my mind. In JavaFX CustomNode must be extending and return a group for custom leaf. If we want to a create parent-child node hierarchy we are create CustomNode that return a group and this group contain an another group,etc. So there is maybe only a way. If you learning to JavaFX first time.This way don't look familiar.
