How can I insert a link to an image file into numbers

I wish to include access to images in a numbers spreadsheet without actually inserting the images. Doing this where the image is a web page is not difficult but these images are on my local drive. I tried dropping an image file onto Safari ( the image opens as a page in Safari) and then copying the URL ( it has the form:  file:///Users/JTC_49/Documents/Pictures/IMG_0248.JPG )  and using it to create a link ( Format>Add a Link>paste the URL into the 'link' field). That all seems to work but when you click on the link you get a message " Couldnt Open Link ". A web page link would open a browser and display the linked page. This does not appear to try to open a browser to pass the URL.

Open the parent file. Go to Tools> Advanced Editing> Link tool. Then draw an area in the parent file with the link tool to open the new file. You will get the Create link dialog box. Under Link action, select "Open a file" and click on next. Select the file to open and click on Select button. You will get the "Specify Open Preference Window".  Select  "New Window"  and Click on OK. Save the file and re-open it. This time the new file will open in a new window keeping the parent file.

  • How can I insert a Pages, Doc, or PDF file into a Keynote presentation?

    I need to insert a document (.pages, .doc, or .pdf anyone) into a Keynote for a portfolio that I must present.  How can I do this?  It doesn't give me that option under hyperlink in inspector. 

    the best is to insert screenshot directly in keynote. If it's for a paper version save everything as pdf and compile with "combine pdf".

  • How can I extract the metadata from multiple image files into a .csv?

    Hi.
    I'm looking for what I believe is a simple task but I am not sure how to go about it. I want to get the relevant data (seen in the screen grab below) into a spread sheet. I need to get the File Name, Size, Dimensions, Resolution and Kind into the spreadsheet so I can better analyze the data for my purposes. I have tried to find EXIF and IPTC extractors but only come across products that show me the info with no way of transferring it. I figured there must be a way to do this in the Finder. Maybe it's a simple Automator task (which I am not very good at) or a Script.
    Can anyone guide me thru or suggest a tool that would work?
    I was given a suggestion in another Disscussion to use a Plug-In for iPhoto. I found an old one but it dosnt have all of the metadata I need. It's missing the File Name and Resolution as options.

  • How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?

    How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?
    The CHM output (accreditation.chm) is stored in a parent directory, and the webhelp output (index.htm) is stored in a child directory.

    Open the usual Link dialog and enter the relative path from where the CHM will be installed to where the webhelp will be installed.

  • How can I insert en empty page without images being pushed of their place?

    I made a document that contains text and a lot of images. Now I need to inset an emptey page at the beginning of the document but when I insert a page brake, all the images in the whole document are being pushed of their place, making to document a mess. I already locked to images to see if this helps but still they are being pused out of context with the text that they are refering to. How can I insert an empty page without this hapening?
    André

    Try inserting a section break. The images should stay in their original section. Of course if you alter the text in that original section, the images will not move unless they are inline.

  • How can I create a link to download a file in Captivate?

    So, in my Captivate file, I want people to be able to download an XML file to their machine.  If I create a hyperlink to "open a file", then when a user clicks on it, captivate attempts to open the xml file in a browser window instead of downloading it.  I can't figure out how to use the download attribute for an href in captivate and I'm not sure if javascript to do this would execute properfly.  Anybody know the best way to accomplish a force download of a file from a captivate presentation (Captivate 6)?
    TIA.

    If you want to really do this so that it is consistent for all browsers, you'll need to implement this at the server level.  I did this with the Dynamic PDF Export Widget.  Typically, a PDF will be displayed in the browser, but I added the ability to download it instead.  It does require a PHP file (or some other server side script).  In the PHP file, you'll want to set the response header for Content-Disposition to "attachment"... that's the key.
    The elbow grease part has to do with managing how the browser handles the link.  You'll want the Captivate hyperlink to open a new window so that the student does not navigate away from your course in the current window.  But since you are opening a PHP file, you can inject javascript into the document of the new window/tab to close itself.  The download will still continue eventhough the window/tab was programmatically closed.  However, most modern browsers will automatically close the window/tab for you when downloading a file.  If you want to see an example of a PHP file that implements this, go ahead and download the trial version of the Dynamic PDF Export widget.  You'll see the create.php file in the zip package.

    If you want to go simple as TLC Media Design suggested, just zip it and let your students unzip the xml file, or just rename the xml file with a .zip extension and tell them to rename the file back to .xml after downloading.

  • How do I insert a link to an internal page into .mucow

    Hi,
    I am quite new to Muse and I want to build a .mucow Widget, to configure a an external JS file.
    As I am having some links to place, I was wandering, how to get a option for an internal link.
    The documentation is only talking about external links, but not internal.
    <url>
    Can someone give me a hint?
    Thanks in advance.
    wim

    Unfortunately, mucow files don't yet have support for linking to files. This is something we'll explore adding in a future version of Muse. Until then, you could use a text field and have users type in the URL to the asset, or suggest they use the 'add files for upload' to get the files into the /assets/ folder, so you can tell where the file will be.

  • How can I create a link to a pdf file and show it in the same webpage or in a new tab

    It is no problem to create a link. But the formats are limited and  - unbelievable -  the pdf format is not supported??!
    Where are the parameter (_blank or _self) to show it for example in the same webpage or in a new tab??!

    PDF is media.  It is not a web document.  Your end users must have plug-ins and helper apps installed on their device to see PDFs in browsers.  Depending on their settings, the PDF file may or may not launch in the browser window.  On my system, PDF files download and launch inside Acrobat Professional; not my browser.
    The safest approach is to provide a screenshot on your page with a direct link to the PDF file so people can handle it as they wish.  See example:  http://www.adobe.com/manufacturing/3dpdfsamples/3dsolutions/

  • How can I do to convert a ".PNG" image file to a ".JPG" or ".BMP" one?

    My problem is to save an image (after processing and with overlay information!) to a standard file (JPG, BMP, ...); if I do it directly with the related VI's, the overlay information is lost; I can save the image in a ".PNG" file, which contains the complete information with overlay, but is not displayable on a LabView-less PC ! How can I do?
    Thank you for your prompt answers.
    Francois

    Hello Francois,
    As you noted, BMP and JPG file formats do not support overlay information. There are two approaches to your problem.
    1. Write to PNG file. PNG is not a LabVIEW specific file format. It cannot, however, be read by simple programs such as Windows Paint. Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop, among other more robust image viewing and editing programs can handle PNG files that LabVIEW generates.
    2. Flatten the overlay information into the main image before writing to BMP or JPG. I don't believe this functionality is built-in to LabVIEW, so this would require some programming, perhaps quite difficult. That is why LabVIEW supports PNG files.
