I want to keep a Pop Up Menu blank when not used?

I've got a spread sheet that in several cells that I have a Pop Up Menu assigned and the first menu shows up in the cell in all of the cells for the Pop Up Menu. What I'd like to have is to keep those cells blank with no text or anything unless I click on the cell and use the Pop Up Menu.
Hopefully someone understands what I'm trying to do here.

Todd,
Your new question can be construed as, sort of, similar if you use the Conditional Format route.
Select all the cells where you want to have this effect, and set a Conditional Fornat where "Equal To: 0" results in Text Color of the same as your cell background Fill, usually White.
An IF-test in the cells with the percentage calculation will wortk too. Let's say your base value is in Column A.
=IF(A>0, A*X%, "")
where X is the amount of the percentage you are calculating will blank the cell on a zero result.
Regards,
Jerry

  • [SOLVED BY AN IDIOT] KDE4 leave menu options when not using KDM

    This problem is more-or-less discussed in other threads, but I'd like to get a more precise answer on something.
    (1) Recently I've been bypassing a login manager and starting KDE4 directly from boot*. Is this why I'm not getting the option to shut down or restart on my KDE "leave" menu?
    (2) If this is what's going on, is there a way to put shut down and restart on my leave menu?
    *I have this in my /etc/inittab:
    x:45:once:/bin/su chas64 -l -c "/bin/bash --login -c startx >/dev/
    null 2>&1"
    And then this in my ~/.xinitrc:
    DEFAULT SESSION=startkde
    Thanks.

    O.K., I think I just won the dumb-you-know-what of the week award.
    I'll confess here, just in case it helps somebody else.
    I changed from the new Kickoff K-menu to the classic K-menu, and I was happy to see the shutoff and restart options there along with logout.
    Then, I switched right back to the Kickoff K-menu. I didn't see the shutoff and restart options.
    I didn't see them -- but they were there, the whole time!
    I just had to scroll down to the bottom of the Leave menu, beneath "Suspend to RAM" and "Suspend to disk".
    Now, if I were designing this part of the interface, I think I would have put Shutdown and Restart just below Logout, but I guess since they're system commands and not session-specific commands, their placement beneath the Suspend options make sense. Sort of.
    Man, what a numbskull! Sorry to waste people's time.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

    Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's  / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

    Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
    However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
    Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
    And the download an APP called caffiene...
    When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
    Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep

  • Why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool?

    why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool? It has never done this before last night. It filles the Whole lasso seleted box with (what it almost looks like) black and white caution lines. then when I go to zoom out, my zoom option starts to mess up where you cant click and move your mouse to zoom in/out with ease but where you have to click to zoom out (many times).
    Can ANYONE help me?

    I am using CS5, WIndows 7, I am not sure how to tell if my drivers are up to, and I am more than happy to screen shot it.

  • POP UP menu with image not pull down

    I'm new to fireworks. I've looked at tutorials, but it seems
    all the pop up menu features are for pull down menus. I want to

  • How to keep the column with FIXED? When I use pivot refreshes in Excel 2007, it keep changes

    I use MS Excel 2007.
    I want to keep the column fixed whenever I refresh data in pivot tables.
    I tried even coding it with a macro:
        Columns("B:F").Select
        Columns("B:F").EntireColumn.AutoFit
        And, in another time I tried columnwidth value to a fixed number; both doesnt work.  
    Please suggest a solution
    Thanks in advance
    Rafeek KBM

    Hi Rafeek,
    One solution is to set the column width after manually or programmatically refresh the PivotTable, for example:
    Private Sub Worksheet_PivotTableUpdate(ByVal Target As PivotTable)
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Set ws = Application.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet
    ws.Columns("A").ColumnWidth = 10
    End Sub
    Another option is to set the column width, then protect the columns from been updated by the user, before refreshing the PivotTable, unprotect the worksheet. For example:
    Public Sub LockColumnA()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Set ws = Application.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet
    ws.Columns("A").ColumnWidth = 10
    ws.Columns("A").Locked = True
    ws.Protect "123"
    End Sub
    Public Sub UnprotectWorksheet()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Set ws = Application.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet
    ws.Unprotect ("123")
    End Sub

  • MENU - mmx file not used by form 6

    Hi,
    I have created a "tree root" menu with submenus, I compile them and get a .mmx with the menu name, however this menu is not used by runform.
    Should I set a parameter in a config file to change which menu is taken into account?
    Many thanks for your reply :-)

    Hi again ,
    The menu was REPLACED in a When New Form Instance trigger.

  • I have 1 itunes library with an iphone and ipod linked to it.  My daughter bought a ipod touch.  Can we download music from my library into her library.  We want to keep them separate due to I do not want all her games in my phone

    I have 1 itunes library with a phone and ipod linked to it.  My daughter just got a touch.  She would like to have some of my music downloaded into her touch.  How can I do that without having her linked to my library?

    Sync all the devices to the same computer.
    If you do not want her apps, then simply do not select them to sync to your device.
    Each device will only sync what you select to sync.
    lllass gave you a great link for several options.

    Also make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

  • Client wants to manage site after I create it, maybe not using DW

    I have a client with a limited budget (they're a small non-profit). They hired me to create a website for them, which I will start on some time early next year. After I have created and launched the site they want to be able to manage and update it from there. Will they need Dreamweaver for this? They may be willing to purchase it but if not, can they manage the site with other software?
    thanks in advance,
    John

  • Ipad keeps  coming on and  online, even though I have it shut off and  wifi shut off, why is this and how can I stop it?  After shutting it off,  sometimes   10 minutes,  or hours later it comes back on, even when not using it

    When my Ipad has been disconnected from wifi and  shut off, it keeps  coming back on and online.  It can happen in 10 minutes, or hours later,  happens  irregulary.  Have noticed when it happens, I get nofications  from facebook of  comments and or posts..  I can switch the wifi off,    switch the iPad off and  then set it beside me,  hour later it dings, i have  noficiations of  face book things, and its online again.. why is this and how can I stop it from happening?

    Yes, I went to settings and turned wifi off.  Thought at first I wasnt letting it set for a sec or two before shutting the iPad off.  so now I wait like a minute or two  before shutting the iPad down.  didnt  seem to help.  Tried  actually logging out of  facebook when I was  done with it,  worked for about  4 days, and now it has started  coming on and coming online again,,  I  went through my notifications and  shut things off,   Well  see if it works.  thank you.

  • Using WEBUTIL in the Menu - problems when not in current form..

    We make a webutil call in the menu - but it is a problem when the current form does not have webutil attached to it.
    Is there any work around other than putting webutil in 100 forms?
    OPEN_FORM/CALL_FORM both affected.

    I've just spotted this thread, so my comments might be too late to be useful, but... I had a similar problem, and as Eric suggested, went for the approach of having a single, small form dedicated solely to running Webutil functions. Any form or menu option that needs to do something WebUtil-related (e.g. 'I need to have File A moved from the apps server to the client') calls a library routine which then calls the dedicated form, passing it all the instructions it needs to carry out the action. Control then returns to the original form. At the moment, I leave the dedicated form in the background in modeless state, so it can be used again if needed elsewhere without having to be reloaded. (If the user tries to click on the modeless form, it shoves control straight back to the 'main' form.)
    I read somewhere that ideally you shouldn't WebUtil-enable every form, if most of the time, most of them won't use it. There's the overhead of initialising all the beans every time a form is opened, and it seems to me that that's relatively intensive, as bean usage goes. Not a showstopper by any means, though.

  • How do I get my iPod touch to keep its place on music tracks when I use different apps?

    Since upgrading to IOS6 (iPod touch 4th generation) my iPod returns to the start of tracks rather than storing where I was up to if I stop listening to a track and use other apps. It's really annoying when listening to audio books that it won't keep my place.  How can I get it to keep my place again like it used to with IOS5

    You need to use iTune to sync music not Windows Media Player
