How do I lock a single cell or row or column

how do I lock a single cell or row or column

Can't. Only the whole table can be locked.
A semi-workaround is to place a clear textbox over the cell and lock the textbox.  The user can't click on the cell but they can still navigate to it using the keyboard. They can also move the table around to get to the cell.  So it is not a great workaround but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

  • Hello, I would like to know how to add or delete single cell in numbers.

    Hello, I would like to know how to add or delete single cell in numbers.

    If by delete you really mean clear the contents of a cell, then just click once on the cell and hit the 'delete' button.
    Before:
    After hitting delete button:
    In some circumstances you can actually delete one cell.
    For example here, I make this choice:
    Resulting in this:
    So it's not strictly true that Numbers does not delete one cell, ever.  It can if you have a one-column table. 
    So never say never or not ever! Enough pedantry for today!

  • Hi, how can i break the value for a row and column once i have converted the image to the array?????​??

    Hi, I would like to know how can i break the value for a row and column once i have converted the image to the array. I wanted to make some modification on the element of the array at a certain position. how can i do that?
    At the moment (as per attachhment), the value of the new row and column will be inserted by the user. But now, I want to do some coding that will automatically insert the new value of the row and the column ( I will use the formula node for the programming). But the question now, I don't know how to split the row and the column. Is it the value of i in the 'for loop'? I've  tried to link the 'i' to the input of the 'replace subset array icon' , but i'm unable to do it as i got some error.
    Please help me!
    For your information, I'm using LABView 7.0.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.Sorry for the confusion.
    I manage to change the array element by changing the row and column value. But, what i want is to allow the program to change the array element at a specified row and column value, where the new value is generated automatically by the program.
    Atatched is the diagram. I've detailed out the program . you may refer to the comments in the formula node. There are 2 arrays going into the loop. If a >3, then the program will switch to b, where if b =0, then the program will check on the value of the next element which is in the same row with b but in the next column. But if b =45, another set of checking will be done at a dufferent value of row and column.
    I hope that I have made the problem clear. Sorry if it is still confusing.
    Hope you can help me. Thank you!!!!

  • How do I resize a single cell in a TableView?

    So I have a tableview, and when a user selects it, I would like to resize that particular cell.
    I have all my code in place in terms of drawing that particular cell when selected, but my only problem is I can't seem to figure out how to resize a single cell. For example, if all my cells have a height of 40, I want the selected cell to have a height of 80. I have tried setFrame, I have tried initWithFrame when creating the cell. I figure I'm missing something pretty simple, but I don't see anything as simple as [cell setHeight] or something like that.
    thanks!

    What Rick says will work. I have done it. In some cases you may need to set the needsDisplay and or needsLayout properties on your custom cell if you have one.

  • How do I outline a single cell in a numbers spreadsheet

    I am trying to emphasise the borders of a single cell in a numbers spreadsheet;  I follow all the instructions I can find in mac help, they just don't make any difference.  I may be ancient, but I can usually suss things out in time; this baffles me.  However, I do realize I may have blundered into the wrong type of help forum here.

    To place borders around a cell in Numbers -
    Make sure the cell has been selected, i.e. is the active cell.
    Click the Inspector tool in the Toolbar -
    Then click the Table inspector icon in the Inspector window's toolbar -
    In that screen, look down to the section "Cell Borders"...
    Click the button for full border (arrow in pic above) -
    Adjust the color of the border as needed for visibility (oval in pic above) -
    And then you may need to adjust the line weight (thickness) to get it visible on-screen. To do that, click the dropmenu in that section showing "Thin" and select the next item underneath "thin" in the menu. This will make the item just to the right of that menu active - you can then use the arrow-buttons to make the line weight thicker. Although the thinnest setting (0.25 pt) may print okay, on some screens it just doesn't show - especially of the border color has not been set to a hard black. Making it thicker can help in viewing it on-screen.

  • Set_cell_Editor for single cells rather then complete column

    Is it possible to set a cell editor (eg a link) only for single cells of a column.
    Regards
    Rene

    hi rene.....
            you cannot do that......
            may be you can have an extral column called enabled or disabled and bind that property to the enabled property of the cell editor so that only one cell will be enabled while others disabled.

  • How do I select the end of a row or column in Numbers?

    I am trying to select to the end of a column in Numbers. In Excel, I simply hold down the shift+command+arrow keys and I can select the entire row or column int he arrow direction. How do I do this in Numbers?

    Here two other scripts :
    Select-to-top and select-to-left.
    Both of them take care of possible headers.
    --{code}
    --[SCRIPT select-to-top]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : select-to-top.scpt
    déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications :Numbers:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    Sélectionner une ou plusieurs cellules d'une ligne dans une table de Numbers
    Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “select-to-top”
    Il étendra la sélection jusqu'à la première ligne standard de la colonne (ne sélectionne pas les rangs d’en tête).
    Bien entendu, ce script sera plus intéressant si vous le dotez d'un raccourci clavier à l’aide, par exemple, de FastScripts.

    Save the script as a Script: select-to-top.scpt
    Move the newly created file into the folder:

    Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    Select one or several cells in a row of a Numbers table.
    Go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose “select-to-top”
    It will expand the selection to the first standard row of the table (minus header rows).
    Of course, it would be more useful if you attach a shortcut thanks to a tool like FastScripts.

    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you again BalusC. I used Tomahawk as you suggested and it works great
    for the future users who has the same question:
    1) put tomahawk.xxx.jar in to your WEB-INF/lib folder
    2) configure you web.xml
    3) put in your jsp <%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" prefix="t" %>
    this was my code:
                   <t:dataList id="dataTable" value="#{album.allImageInAlbum}" var="name">
                   <t:column>
                   <h:graphicImage value="getimage?file=#{name.imageId}&email=#{name.usEmail}&albumId=#{name.id}"

    iTunes 11!!! Ack. Mostly fine, but totally screwed up using podcasts. That is about half of my iTunes usage. Anyway, I can't get podcasts to view like albums as they did in iTunes 10.7. And I can't get podcasts to group together by ratings. I am willing to go back to 10.7, if there is no solution. Can anyone help??

    I'd like to update this question, but don't see an option to edit the original.
    Can't arrange podcasts according to rating, in iTunes 11!
    I would love to have them in rows/columns, as they were in iTunes 10, as well as arrange them according to ratings.
    Update: I have been on the phone with Apple support for this issue for 3 days, and the solution is not found or known. Hours on the phone, Restarted my whole Mountain Lion from scratch. Now I can see the "list" option in iTunes 11. That's the only change. And we're not done restoring my Macbook to the original. I even had to run out and by a second 1T external hard drive during this process. yuck. Great dedication by support. Seems like a can of worms, that I wish I had not opened. Hopefull......

  • How to lock a single email?

    Hello everybody over there. I wonder how can I lock a single email in Mail? I need to lock a three-month account paper sent by my bank because my Mac is used by my girlfriend as well. Any idea?

    There is no way included in Mac OS X to prevent anyone who has access to your user account from seeing any given message in Mail. If you don't want your girlfriend reading specific email messages, it's probably most practical to just save them somewhere outside of Mail and delete them from Mail. Or as has been suggested give her a separate Mac OS X user account and then log out of yours when you're not using your computer.
    And no, there's no way to prevent Spotlight from being able to find any given file in a user account unless you place that file in a secure disk image or use another security utility such as Espionage which says it can also lock mail, though I don't know if can lock a single message (I think it only locks folders which would mean it possible could lock a mailbox, but not just a single message).
    Regards.
    There is a way to prevent Spotlight from searching single locations and that is through System Preferences>Spotlight>Privacy. I added the mailbox wherein that email currently is. I thought I could lock an email as I can with any folder on my Mac. Espionage is nice, but you are right as it only locks folders, not single messages.
    Thank you.

  • How do i select a particular cell from a AbstractTableModel?

    I m using abstractTableModel to create my table. My table display 4 columns of different info, now i can capture my info from the other window and compare the value with my table but i don't know how to highlight/or select the particular rows in table.

    Hi,
    as I said before, the changeSelection(...) method of JTable will setup it's ListSelectionModel so that the row, you want, gets selected/highlighted:
    yourTable.changeSelection(row,0,false,false);
    will select a certain cell - but if selection of a single cell is not allowed and row selection is allowed, the whole row will be selected this way. You can allow selection of a single cell, selection of a column, selection of a row, or simultaneous selection of column and row at the same time. You can have single selection and multi selection.
    Hope this helps
    greetings Marsian

  • Inserting a single cell

    Okay, I can insert a whole row or column, but how do I insert a single cell? Say I need to add a cell at G8, moving the data down one cell. Rather than trying to select 325 cells and move them down.
    Simple in Excel, but I'm giving Numbers a reason to not use Excel.
    Anyone?

    I still submit that you haven't "grokked" the Numbers yet. I have used it extensively and have never needed this feature.
    Well, I guess it's true I have not "grokked" Numbers yet. And yes, the data was entered inconsistantly, Jax, and that's the problem I'm trying to fix. All of which would be easier if I had a simple Add Single Cell command. Goodness, it's not like I'm asking for the Red Sea to part, just a single column.
    I'm dealing with 2 tables, each with 12 categories, 60 entries per category, and I'm trying to compare the two. I sorted each by category and then by entry. Then I copied and pasted the appropriate columns from Table 2 over to Table 1. After moving columns around (which is easier than in Excel, admittedly), I'm going down the columns and looking for discrepancies. Finding one, I need to bump a column down a cell so I can add the missing entry so both columns are exactly the same. There are cells missing in both columns, so I can't assume one is more correct than the other.
    So I guess the Martian thing to do (being a stranger in a strange land, i.e., a non-Microsoft spreadsheet), would be create 12 different tables based on twelve different categories. Of course, then I'll need to combine them back together because sometimes I sort by entry, not just category. Effective multiplying my efforts by 12.
    Oh, and I was well aware of the demo, thank you very much. I'm a few months passed the 30 day limit before this project came about. I bought the software in an attempt to cut away from Microsoft Office. Surely y'all can understand that. Going cold turkey wasn't such a good idea, I guess.
