I can't align cell dividers in a table!

Hi everybody!
I am working with Pages 4.02. I created a table, I added columns to it (split into columns) but it seems I can't find a way to align the vertical dividers of individual cells to other dividers in the next row above (or below).
When I select the cell, the width and high of the cell in the inspector are unavailable.
I select the individual vertical border, I drag it, but it seems to be stuck. There is barely any content on the cells, and I just have 2 or 3 columns total.
There is any way to work with this? What am I doing wrong? Is this a bug?
Thanks for your help!
Gus

No bug, the results of the huge change introduced in iWork '08.
Before that, Tables where defined by a specific code.
Now, Pages's tables are built with quite the same tool than Numbers ones.
This give a lot of interesting features: quite all functions available in Numbers are available in Pages tables.
You pointed one of the collateral effects.
We will have to live with it or leave it

  • How can I change the thickness of the cell border of a table in Pages for iPad ?

    Hi,
    i want to change the thickness of cell borders in tables in Pages for iPad to at least 2pt, better 3pt.
    How can I change the thickness in the iOS Version of Pages ?
    Thanks

    try this ...
    In ur table call this
    ColorRenderer cell=new ColorRender();
    // for(int i=0;i<table.getModel().getColumnCount();i++){
    // TableColumn mod=this.getColumn((this.getModel().getColumnName(i)));
    mod.setCellRenderer(cell);
    And ur ColorRender calss should override DefaultTableCellRenderer like this
    class ColorRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
    protected int align;
    public ColorRenderer(int align) {
    this.align=align;
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
    Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,
    int column) {
    setHorizontalAlignment(align);
    super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected,
    hasFocus, row, column);
    if(col==4){
    setBackground(Color.cyan);
    return this;

  • Problem in  alignment of cell content in Advanced Table

    Hi,
    I have a column which has some flag say 'Y' or 'N'.
    I have created an advanced table and followed the dev guide for aligning the value in the center of the cell.But i m getting null pointer exception when I m using getColumnFormats method of advanced table.
    OAAdvancedTableBean resultsTableBean =(OAAdvancedTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("region2");
    System.out.println("index"+pageContext.findChildIndex(resultsTableBean,"column1"));
    OAColumnBean manuPartNoCol =(OAColumnBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("column1");
    manuPartNoCol.setAttributeValue(ALIGNMENT_GROUP_ATTR,ICON_BUTTON_FORMAT);
    resultsTableBean.prepareForRendering(pageContext);
    // now get a handle on the array of Column Format Dictionaries
    DataObjectList myColumnFormats = resultsTableBean.getColumnFormats();
    System.out.println("myColumnFormats.getLength"+myColumnFormats.getLength());
    // get a handle on the specific Column Format Dictionary you
    // are interested in
    oracle.cabo.ui.data.DictionaryData myIconColumnFormat = (oracle.cabo.ui.data.DictionaryData)
    myColumnFormats.getItem(pageContext.findChildIndex(resultsTableBean,"column1"));
    // set the CELL_NO_WRAP_FORMAT_KEY property to TRUE
    myIconColumnFormat.put(COLUMN_DATA_FORMAT_KEY , ICON_BUTTON_FORMAT);
    BUt if I use table bean instead of advanced table bean then the same code works.
    Basically i have to set the alignment of the cells in the advanced table bean in the runtime.
    Can anybody suggest something?
    Thanks

    Provide the error stack.

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Can you select the row in a table view without highlighting the cell?

    I have an an app with a table view which is presented modally. Cell selections in this table are saved in the parent controller so that they can be reselected if the table is reloaded after being dismissed.
    When the cell is first highlighted, I want to momentarily highlight the cell and have it fade out, which I do by unselecting the cell from the modal view controller's didSelectRowAtIndexPath by calling setSelected:animated on the table view cell.
    However, when I present the table view controller modally again and want to display the previously selected cell as selected, I don't want the cell background to be highlighted, and I'm having trouble doing this.
    In order to make sure the table view knows the cell is selected, I am calling selectRowAtIndexPath. I need to make sure the cell is selected so that I can set/unset the cell's accessoryType. However, this has the sideeffect of highlighting the cell too, which looks weird and confusing to the user.
    I've tried things like temporarily setting the cell's selection style to none, but while that stops the cell background from highlighting? I've tried setting the selectionStyle to UITableViewSelectionStyleNone, but while this prevents the cell background from highlighting, the cell text still changes to white, so it the text is invisible against the white background.
    Is there a easy way of setting a cell to selected in the table view without also changing the highlight and text colour of the actual cell? Immediately setting the cell to be unselected still makes the highlight visible for a split second.

    I tried that, but setting the highlighted property doesn't seem to affect it.
    I figured out how what I was doing wrong though. I was setting selection style UITableViewSelectionStyleNone, selecting the cell, then setting the selection style back to whatever it had previously been. This causes the background not to draw highlighted, but the text and accessory type to still draw highlighted.
    In order to fix this, I moved the code to set the cell selection style to whatever it had previously been to the didDeselectRowAtIndexPath method.

  • Can't get cell borders to work

    I'm new Mac user...and I'm having a terrible time working with some spreadsheets that I created in Excel and saved as .numbers docs.
    My current problem is: I can't get cell borders to work. I had an existing Excel spreadsheet and when I saved it as a num.doc, I lost my column headers. I selected table columns for 3 columns. When I did this I lost the existing cell borders. Now when I try to put them back, they appear while I am in the selected rows, so it looks like it worked, but then when I click another cell, the borders all disappear.
    Can anyone help me out?
    Right now I really miss my PC
    People keep telling me I'll love my MAC one day, but I'm still waiting...

    Microsoft Office is available for Macs. That might be one solution to your problem and might make this switch from PC to Mac a little easier for you.
    Conversions from one format to another are often not perfect. Numbers and Excel are sufficiently different that you might spend considerable time redesigning an imported Excel spreadsheet to make it look and print as you would like it to in Numbers. With regards to borders, it is possible you are not following the proper steps to create borders. There is definitely a learning curve going from Excel to Numbers. Have you downloaded and read the Numbers Users Manual that is available in the Help menu?

  • How can I align text in Acrobat 8.1 Professional?

    Okay this is quite silly, but seriously how can I align text in adobe acrobat? I could not find a way other than creating a new document file which allows me to use alignment options automatically (example below), however does not allow me that when I reopen the same file (alignment and text options just dissapear on the bars, funny). Help anyone please? =/
    http://img152.imageshack.us/my.php?image=examplemo2.jpg

    Not that silly; but you ideally shouldn't be trying. Although there are some rudimentary (and sometimes unpredictable) editing tools in Acrobat, (I presume you are trying with the TouchUp Object tool as well as the TouchUp Text ?) much better to get it right in the source application and think of the pdf as what it basically is...a print.
    For whatever reason, v5 could edit text positioning rather more easily than the later versions.

  • Can't merge cells in Report Designer

    Hi!
    I use Report Designer.
    I have 3 rows and 5 columns in the Header/Footer.
    I can't merge cells, for example cells from 2nd row, 2-4th columns.
    I need this format:
    AAA | BBB | DDD | EEE | FFF
    ssss | ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff | gggg
    aaaaa| nnnn | mmm | kkk
    What can I do?

    Hi,
        Actually you can merge the Cells in Header and Footer. Just that, I think you have older version of the Report Designer.
    In 7.10 GUI Release there is now an option to Merge and Unmerge Cells in Header and Footer.
    Please check the Report Designer Version from HELP about. It should be atleast 7.1 with Front End Patch level 5 and Above.
    I have the same Issue. My Version of RD which is for Release 2004s it does not work but on another machine with GUI 7.1 it works so check that out.
    Hope it helps.

  • Can't find cell protection for formulas. Help!

    Would someone be so kind as to direct me to info on cell protection for formulas as found in xcel spreadsheets.
    What would Mac call it, seed/kernal protection or something? Thanks

    a,
    Your best bet, as I see it, is to put your equations and other sensitive data in one locked table and any input cells in another unlocked table or tables. You can arrange the tables in such a way as to simulate locking patches of a larger table as you might have done in Excel if you wish. None of this is iron clad. Anyone who knows how to unlock a table can do so and make changes. You are defending honest, well-intentioned users from mistakes, that's all. You can make mistakes pretty difficult to make with combinations of locked tables and clear masking objects over those tables to prevent selecting them.
    Regards,
    Jerry

  • Can we get a cell from sap.m.table i.e. row-column value on Click?

    Hi All,
    we are looking for a requirement where if a user clicks on a particular text(cell) displayed in a table, we should be able to change the color of that text(cell) only.
    Can we achieve this in SAPUI5 ?
    Any help is greatly appreciated

    here is the exact solution which i applied:
    Thanks to Dennis Seah code modification was negligible .
    In onInit() function i placed the method which takes the cell on which the user clicked and stores it in the variable $o (line 26, $o is global variable).
       2. Replace tableID with your table's ID.
    onInit : function() {
    view = this.getView();
    var oTable = view.byId('tableID');
    oTable.onAfterRendering = function() {
    if (sap.m.Table.prototype.onAfterRendering) {
      sap.m.Table.prototype.onAfterRendering.apply(this);
    var tbl = this;
    tbl.selectedCell = null;
    var items = this.getItems();
    for ( var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
      var item = items[i];
      var path = item.getBindingContext().getPath();
      var cells = item.getAggregation('cells');
    for ( var j = 0; j < cells.length; j++) {
      var cell = cells[j];
      var $cell = cell.$();
      $cell.attr('path', path);
      $cell.attr('bindName',cell.mBindingInfos.text.parts[0].path);
      var $parent = $cell.parent();
      $parent.css('cursor', 'pointer');
      $parent.click(function() {
      if (tbl.selectedCell) {
           tbl.selectedCell.css('color', '');
      $o = $(this).find('span');
      var obj = tbl.getModel().getProperty($o.attr('path'));
      sap.m.MessageToast.show(obj[$o.attr('bindName')]);
      tbl.selectedCell = $o;
       3. then in changeColor function i use the code to change the color of the cell
    changeColor: function() {
      $o.css('color', 'red');

    No way to trace it if you didn't active Find my Phone on your iPhone before you lost it.
    Notify your carrier and your police of the loss.  Chances are you will never get your phone back.

  • Can use 9 cell battery instead of 6 Cell

    Hello
    My laptop model is hp Probook 4410s and have a battery of 6 cell, Battery model is  513128-251. Now I need to replace the battery. Please let me know whether hp probook 4410s will support 9 cell battery? does this create any hardware issue? also If i can use 9 cell battery can I use the same adaper or need to change
    Please advise me
    Regards
    Vipin

    There are aftermarket 9 cell batteries:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/9-Cell-Battery-Fit-HP-ProBook-4405-4406-4410s-4411s-4412-4413-4415s-4416s-/3...
    There is no need to use a different AC adapter. I can't find if HP offers a "genuine" 9 cell battery. If you can find one of those it would be better but the "knockoff" aftermarket batteries will work.
