How to change worksheet direction in numbers

Hi,
I have the latest update of numbers, and I write in Hebrew (which is a right-to-left language). The worksheet in numbers is left-to-right and I was wondering how I can change it to a right-to-left sheet.
Thanks,
Idan Ashkenazi

Hi Tom,

I think the improved bi-directional support was essentially limited to fixing the bugs that made RTL text input pretty impossible in earlier versions. The reference to "reversing the direction of tables" is curious, however.
False advertising? As a Level 9 contributor, could you please tell Apple that idanash1990 expected more?

Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

Here's what you should do:
suppose your string is "abc" and you want to display that reversed:
1. reverse the string
2. find where your start point is (where you're going to draw 'a'
3. Use FontMetrics to calculate the offset from the start point you need to make to print the string where it should be

How to change format of phone numbers in PowerShell?

We need to append the area code and hyphen in front of the office phone number field in their domain user account for all our users that have office phones now that we are changing from 7 digit numbers to 10 digit numbers.
I found a script that finds and edits phone numbers, but the author chose a different way to format the numbers.
This is the part of the script I need to change:
# Format number as xxx xx xx xxx.
$Phone = '{0}
{1} {2} {3}' -f$Phone.Substring(0,3),$Phone.Substring(3,2),$Phone.Substring(5,2),$Phone.Substring(7,3)
I'm trying to figure out how to edit that so that it formats it as xxx-xxx-xxxx
(3 digit area code, hyphen, 3 digit prefix, hyphen, four digit number) instead of xxx xx xx xxx.
Can someone show how to rewrite this section?

The modified script:
# This format number as xxx-xxx-xxxx.
$Phone = '{0}-{1}-{2}' -f $Phone.Substring(0,3),$Phone.Substring(3,3),$Phone.Substring(6,4)
Hope this helps.

In Pages: How to change text direction in cell?

in Pages, I'd like to change the direction of the text in a table I'm creating.
In the first column (one long column -- I've merged the cells) the work is reading left to right. How do I make it read up and down?
Thanks in advance!

Here's what I found:
Insert a text box from the INSERT menu.... it's also available at the FORMAT menu, but I chose Insert.
Don't drag yet!
place cursor and type your text.
Then, click on the METRICS menu in the Inspector pane
Rotate. Getting exactly to 90 degrees was difficult. Maybe because I called it 90% at first!
Now you can drag.
It might look better to spread out the letter spacing in the text you have entered. Do that from the "text" tab in the Inspector pane.
if you double click, or even click too much, the text box will jump back into a horizontal position -- Dont' worry, it's trying to let you edit.
just go back to "Metric" and change it back to 90 degrees.
Thanks Barry for answering this 3 years ago, and getting me started!

How to change TLFTextField direction at runtime?

I create a TLFTextField object at design time and need to change its direction at runtime, how this could be possible?
the following code did not work and simply ignored:
var myText:TLFTextField = MyText;
myText.textFlow.direction = "rtl";
What should I do?

Yes, it work and I was know it, for this reason I emphasis that I created control at "DESIGN time", I want to change the direction of controls that created at design time not creating at runtime with var tf:TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
To reproduce the problem create TLFText on your scene with text tool and name it "MyText" then
var tf:TLFTextField = MyText; // instead new TLFTextField();
..rest of your code
now you will see that nothing will be change! I struggled many hours but still no success.
Do you have any idea in this case?

How to change default font in Numbers?

Is it possible to somehow change the default font when creating new documents in Numbers from "Helvetica Neue" to just "Helvetica", size 11? Changing the font and saving the document as new template simply does not work since the font in newly created tables in the new document using the new template still falls back to "Helvetica Neue".

Here is an enhanced version.

How to change axis values in Numbers

In v1.7 I have tried to change the axis values on existing charts but can't find how to do it...
So I tried to create bar charts from scratch in order to rebuild the old ones with the new axis data but I can't find out how to set any of the axis values on chart creation now!!
Has something changed - or am I just thick/blind?!!

Is it so difficult to read given answers ?
Barry described the correct scheme.
In the table "to_chart", the cell A1 contains :
=ROUNDUP(ABS(MIN(Tableau 1 :: B:E))/10,0)*10
The cell B2 embed the formula :
=$A$1+Tableau 1 :: B2
Apply fill down and fill to the right.
On the left edge, the colored rectangle is a text block in which I inserted the label values.
Of course if you dislike this scheme, you are perfectly free to use an other application.

How to change the direction of movement in atable from left to right?

As the title says i want to change the movement direction in the cells of a table in pages when i click tab key from "left to right" to "right to left", is that possible?

It seams that we aren't using the same application.
In mine, if the cell C3 is selected, pressing shift + tab select the cell B3 which is what you wanted in your original post (or I understood it wrongly).
If what you want is the ability to insert a new row above the current one or at top of a table, you can't do that this way.
Same response if you want to insert a new column to the left of the table.
To do that, the soluce is to select the top row or the leftmost column.
There is a funny bug in the menu items.
If your table has a header row, entering the menu Format > Table, we get four items:
Insert new header above
Insert new header below
if we are in the header row
or
Insert new row above
Insert new row below
Insert a column before
Insert a column after
These four menus items have shortcuts :
option up arrow
option down arrow
option left arrow
option right arrow
If the table has no header, the menu items are :
Insert new row above
Insert new row below
Insert a column before
Insert a column after
None of them display a shortcut *_but the shortcuts are active_*

How to change the direction of play on an ipod playlist/podcast

I play a lot of Podcasts on my Classic Ipod 160, and something that's bothered me for ages.
If I have a particular podcast with more that 1 episode on it to play, I will usually want to play them in order from oldest to newest.
However, the ipod only wants to play from the top of the list to the bottom, the top being the newest episode, the bottom being the oldest.
So, I end up having to scroll down to the bottom, play the episodes one at a time, and manually move my choice of episode to the next newest after the episode I was listening to finished.
When I got my first ipod, a looooonnnnnggggg time ago, you could start playing a particular podcast at the oldest episode, and the ipod would just move on to the next newest episode in a podcast automatically.
Then, at some point, at some particular ipod software upgrade, or itunes upgrade, The ipod stopped functioning the way I wanted it to, and I had to go about playing them the awkward way. That was about 2 ipods ago.
Now, my current Ipod, on 1 particular podcast, is allowing me to play the podcast episode list in the old way that I want, where I just select the oldest episode, and I can just let it play on its own, and the list will move on to the next newest episode on its own.
This makes me think that there may be someway of controlling the directionality of play on a podcast episode list.

Hi Frank,
this is not easy to talk with words. First, since your antennas are articulated, you can achieve any coverage without moving the AP itself.
The coverage patterns seen here :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/antenna/installation/guide/5135dw.html
can be identified like this :
Place the ap on a desk. Cisco logo facing upwards (ceiling)
Antennas are straight up (like they would be if they were not articulated). The antennas pointing like fingers to the ceilign.
Then you have the coverage seen on the diagrams of the link I pasted.
H-view is a top view (you are viewing the AP from the ceiling on your desk). You can see it's radiating in all horizontal direcitons.
E-view is a side view (you are sitting on your chair looking at the AP at the same heigh as it) : You can see it's radiating left and right but not so much up and down of the AP.
So this is a "floor" coverage.
If you want a coverage "above and below" the AP then you should articulate the antennas to be parrallel to the AP (pointing the wall then). Direction will nto matter.
I hope it's clear. I'm sorry I'm not using your diagrams as reference as I didn't really understand their significations as it's hard to view this kidn of stuff without 3d view :-)

How to change the direction of text writing: item is top to bottem

hi, i will make a notepad. and i will make its text's direction: item is top to bottem and line is left to right.
i cant do this, please help me!

What you need is:

That gives you a very nice vertical text, with support for rotation
control so Katakana and Arabic style writing can be done properly.
