How to align text at the top and bottom of a cell?

I'm making a periodic table and need help with aligning text at the top and bottom of a cell. I'll have a picture in the middle of the cell with text above and below the pic. Thank you in advance for any kind of suggestions you can give me.

It sounds as though you want to have 3 separate items inside of a single cell; text at the top of the cell, text at the bottom of the cell, and then a picture in the middle of the cell.  I am no expert, but to my knowledge that is not possible (someone please correct me if I am wrong.)  I also cannot figure out how to put a picture inside of a cell itself.
I do have a way to accomplish the end result so long as what you need is the final look and not a useable table in numbers.
Create 2-3 cells for each element.  (The middle cell, unless you can put pictures in a cell and I don't know, would just be there for peace of mind, but would hold the picture if you can, I would just do two if the pictures are to be in front of the cell anyway.)  The top cell align text to top on the Text tab of the inspector.  The bottom cell, align text to bottom on the same tab.  Then place the picture in the middle.  Now, you have what you want except there is one or two lines dividing the cells.  To get rid of this, either click the middle cell if you have one, or the top or bottom cell.  Click on the Cell tab of the inspector.  Select the bottom border and/or top border button and select "No Border" under border styles.  To make this fast, select a full row at a time, or use command click to select all of the same type of rows (middle, top, or bottom) and change all cells at once.
I hope this helps.  Best of luck!

  • HT202879 how do i add a line to the top and bottom of a text box only

    i have a text box in my Pages document but i need to be able to add a line tot he top and bottom only to my text box. can i pleae get some help.

    Hello alegna23,
    To add a line just to the top and bottom of a text box, you will need to add the two lines as shapes.  Follow the steps below to add a line to your document:
    Add a shape
    Click Shape in the toolbar.Click the arrows to see more shape styles.
    Select a shape to add it to the page.
    In step 2, select a line and use the squares on the end of the line to help resize the line.  You can find the full article here:

  • How to Align Text in the TextArea

    How to Align text in the TextArea. My purpose is that I want to post the records after retrieving from database. All the records in each fields should keep aligned like Oracle WorkSheet.
    I want this way
    Code Name Place City
    a01 nilopher swiss street japan
    a02 rozina lovely street aus
    a03 benazir king's camp pitsburg
    and the out put should not look like this :-
    Code Name Place City
    a01 nilopher swiss street japan
    a02 rozina lovely street aus
    a03 benazir king's camp pitsburg
    here place and city records are getting disturbed accordingly the length of name.

    Well, first off (if it's not default, that is) you must set a monospaced font on the TextArea, unless you want to count pixelwidth of each and every string and then do an estimate on how many fill blanks you want...
    If you have the each string as a line, you use a StringTokenizer on it, extract each token, put all the tokens for that line into an array of strings.
    When every line is done, you compare the length of the nth String of each array and save the highest numbers.
    Then you reassemble each line from the arrays and pad in spaces where the tokens are too short.

  • How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom? Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom?
    Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />

  • How to remove web data from the top and bottom of my Ebay invoices so I can print them without it.

    When I create my Ebay invoices, (which are generated through the browser in a new window) data is also generated at the top and bottom that I don't want to show on the invoice. The data is the date and time at the bottom, together with the page number, and at the top it shows the web location. In Explorer, you can remove this before printing but I can't work out how to do it in Firefox. Help please!

    Hello!
    You can change that in Page Setup, choose the "Margins & Header/Footer" tab and chose "--blank--" instead of the data that you don't want it to appear.
    You can visit [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-print-websites#w_margins-and-header-footer How to print websites] for more details.
    I hope that helps,
    Have a nice day

  • What are the boxes that appear when I scroll over them at the top and bottom of a Pages document, and how do I get rid of them?

         While types a blank document on pages, there are "invisible" boxes at the top and bottom of each page, and they only appear when I scroll over them. Does anyone know what these boxes are, and how i can get rid of them from my paper?

    Those are the Header and Footer spaces. You remove them using the Document Inspector. Uncheck the "Headers" and "Footers" checkboxes shown checked here:

    I recently bought a new PC and when I transferred my photos a number of them became distorted- the top half was ok but the bottom half were color shifted.  Also a number of them the top and bottom don't line up.  How can I fix this?

    Hi, I see I haven't had any responses but these problems haven't been fixed.
    I still haven't been able to transfer purchases from my phone to my comp so consequently have stopped purchasing on my phone.
    I bought a couple of albums recently via itunes on my comp, and tried to tranfer them to my phone via a playlist, but the sync often crashes. One album transferred except for one song, and the other hasn't at all. What happens is that when I autofill from a playlist it often hangs for ages on the first song and then I have to quit the application altogether as nothing happens for ages. Basically, the whole Itunes software freezes. 
    After this I find it hasn't transferred any songs, but they do appear greyed out on my phone, which means it has transferred some basic data such as the titles, but not the song itself. When I try to repeat the process to complete the transfer Itunes tells me that it can't transfer because the songs are already on the phone, but they are not!! I can't click or remove on the greyed out items, so now I have a couple of almost full albums on my computer that I can't tranfer or install on my phone, and a whole bunch of greyed out songs on my phone that I can't play or remove!
    The rest of the problems as above still stand. I downloaded the latest itunes OS updates but nothing's changed. I haven't done the very latest iphone update yet though because it says you need to make sure your stuff is backed up, and I don't want to lose the purchases I made on the phone that I can't transfer to my comp. I'm planning on uninstalling itunes completely and reinstalling but I have little faith that this will fix the issue.
    Can someone please help at all?? I'm so sick of this!

  • How can I print the top and bottom halves of 11x17 PDF on 8.5x11?

    I have a multi-page 11x17 PDF of quiz cards designed to be printed double-sided so that a question appears on one side and the answer on the other side. (Page 1 has the questions; page 2 has the answers.)  My printer is 8.5x11 so I would like to print the top half of 11x17 page 1 onto 8.5x11 page 1 and the bottom half of 11x17 page 1 onto 8.5x11 page 2. Then I will flip the 8.5x11 pages over and repeat the process, this time printing 11x17 page 2.
    Is there a way to print the top and bottom halves of an 11x17 PDF onto two 8.5x11 pages?
    Thanks!

    The easiest solution I know of requires you to have a copy of Adobe InDesign. You can easily layout PDFs within InDesign in the configuration you want and create a new PDF.
    I don't know any way to print it directly in that layout, unfortunately.

  • Get rid of the white space at the top and bottom of the report when Printing as PDF document

    Hello All,
    I have a wider tablix report which is 29 inches wide. I have given the paper size as custom and width as 29 and height as 11 in report properties.I have deployed it and saved it as PDF document. When I print preview the report I am using the paper size as
    tabloid (17 by 11) and selected the orientation as Landscape. I am getting the full report without any stripping but I am getting some extra space at the top and bottom when I print the report. Can anyone help me how to get rid of this space? . I checked the
    margins for the report and it was 0in. Please help.
    Thank You

    Hi There
    In Reporting Services (SSRS 2008), there are white spaces preserved in the report body by default. When the white space extends the body size beyond the width of the report, blank pages will be generated. To avoid the issue, you can set the “ConsumeContainerWhiteSpace”
    property of the report to “True”.
    Please try to adjust your margins (top + side) and hopefully this problem will get resolved
    Body Width <= Page Width - (Left Margin + Right Margin)
    Horizontal usable area:
    X = Page.Width - (Left Margin + Right Margin + Column Spacing)
    Vertical usable area:
    Y = Page.Height - (Top Margin + Bottom Margin + Header Height + Footer Height)
    Body Width <= Page Width - (Left Margin + Right Margin)
    Horizontal usable area:
    X = Page.Width - (Left Margin + Right Margin + Column Spacing)
    Vertical usable area:
    Y = Page.Height - (Top Margin + Bottom Margin + Header Height + Footer Height)
    If you have any questions please ask.
    Many Thanks

  • Why does the top and bottom of my clips get cut off?

    Hi, I'm new to iMovie and I've encountered an annoying problem. I imported all my movie files from my flash drive without any issues. I dragged a clip from the section with all the clips to the play reel. I previewed the clip, both normal screen and full screen, and both times the top and bottom of the clip was cut off. I tried it again with different clips but the same thing kept happening? Can anyone tell me why this happens because my head keeps getting cut off and I don't like it one bit.

    First, you can go into File/Project Preferences and adjust the aspect ratio of your project to either widescreen (16:9) or standard (4:3), to match your footage.
    You can combine footage that is widescreen and standard in the same project. In this case, you have to tell imovie how to handle the clips that do not fit the overall project aspect ratio. To do this, you can select a clip in your project and use the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. If you select FIT, it will preserve the whole frame by inserting black bars (letterboxing). If you select CROP it will cut off the top and bottom. You can select the default for this in Project Properties.

  • Small black bars on the top and bottom on video after exporting?

    I'm using 1280x720 video footage in Adobe Premiere. The problem is, whenever I export my finished project as 1280x720, the newly rendered file has small black bars on the top and bottom.
    These black bars are not there in the Premiere preview, only after the project is rendered.
    The video file created after export is still 1280x720(16:9).
    Is there any way to get rid of these black bars, as they are quite irritating because I make youtube videos regularly.

  • In screenshare the top and bottom of my screen is cutoff.

    Hello, I am trying to connect my Macbook Pro to my TV with an HDMI cord. It seems to work fine, except that the top and bottom of my screen is being cutoff on the tv. I cannot see the bottom half of my dock, and I cannot see the top menu bar with the apple at all. I have tried all of the different resolutions for the display, and on every one of them I have this problem. How can I fix this? I have also noticed that it does this with some other displays, not just this one. It works on about 50% of the different screens I try, and the other half does this. Here is a picture of the problem: http://imgur.com/HoR7a

    Thanks a lot. That was much simpler than I thought it should be. One interesting thing though, is that you cannot do this when it is set to mirror your screen. Any idea for how?

  • WP 8.1 App Grid has padding on the top and bottom...

    I have a Grid as shown below.  When I have height/width set to auto on the row and column definitions.  As expected the buttons in each column are flush against each.  The height always has a padding at the top and bottom of the grid
    cell.  
    Why would it have padding a the top and bottom and how do I remove it since there is no padding attack property?
    Thanks,
       Michael
    Example below:
    <Grid x:Name="ContentRoot"
    Grid.Row="1"
    Margin="19,9.833,53,0" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
    <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
    <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
    <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <Button Content="1" />
    <Button Grid.Column="1" Content="2" />
    <Button Grid.Column="2" Content="3" />
    <Button Grid.Row="1" Content="4" />
    <Button Grid.Row="2"
    Grid.Column="1"
    Content="5" />
    <Button Grid.Row="3"
    Grid.Column="2"
    Content="6" />
    </Grid>

    The margin in the grid is causing the gap.  I would remove it
    <Grid x:Name="ContentRoot"
    Grid.Row="1"
    Margin="19,9.833,53,0" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
