Is it possible to make a simple y vs x line graph, when neither of the two data series is in a header?

For hours I have been trying to do this, without success.  When there are two columbs of numbers, in the bidy of a table (the sheet), there seems to be no way to make a line plot one column vs the other, as is easy to do in Excel.  A scatter plot seems to work, but not a line plot.
Weird!
Can someone tell me if a line plot is possible?
Thanks so much.

It is simple to do what you want. It is two extra steps as compared to doing it the "Numbers" way with the X data and the series names in headers. Note that a line plot is not a true X-Y plot of X vs Y unless your X data is evenly spaced and in numerical order.
1. Select the Y data and make a line chart
2. With the chart selected, go to the Axis tab of the Format sidebar, click on the "Category X" button, and replace the "Label References" with references to your X data. In my example I changed it to Table 1::D6:D8 and it expanded it out into separate cell references.
3. Click on the Series tab and change the "name" reference to point to your series name in the chart. In my example I changed it to Table 1::E5

    Hi j2399123,
    It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
    Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
    For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
    Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
    And for screen recording specifically, there's

    Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

  • I have recently found it impossible to make a genius bar appointment on line. has anyone else had the same problem? is this a deliberate Apple policy? or have they accidentally put in a number of loops into their website?

    difficulty booking genius bar appointments on line.

    It is my understanding that they're trying to get more information from you and offer other possible support options first. They probably want to cut down on unnecessary appointments by attempting to resolve simple issues online and are also trying to avoid some situations where people were booking multiple appointments for a variety of reasons.
    I made one a couple of weeks ago with no problems. It was for a screen repair so it was pretty definitely not an issue that could be resolved by chat or a phone call.

  • I want to make a simple line chart

    i want to make a simple line chart using the data in two nonadjacent columns.
    it seems that the easiest way to do this is to export the sheet to google docs and use THEIR charting, which is a two-click deal.
    is there an easy way to do this in numbers?
    my impression:
    numbers:
    very fancy, super pretty, easy to modify APPEARANCE, difficult to use actual charts. custom paint job on a junker
    googledocs:
    available everywhere, basic, more difficult with actual data flexibility, but you can use what you've got.
    the whole emphasis on numbers seems to be how pretty i can make displays, but not a lot of emphasis on making it easy to make things work.
    can anyone shed some light on how to make this simple instead of pretty?

    You can definitely use the technique I mentioned to order the columns to make it easy to chart:
    Here I created a table (the top one) to hold the original data and make a second table (the lower one) to pull data into two adjacent columns:
    The bottom table, as I said pulls data from the top data table:
    Then highlight the data in the table to chart, and selec the chart type from the menu (I suggest the bar chart which is the first item in the chart tool menu):
    I made up this data and mean it to be no reflection on your running ability

  • Is it possible to make a button that adds extra pages?

    I'm trying to make a form that consists of three pages. However, I would like to have a button at the bottom of page 2 that can be used to duplicate page 2 as a continuation sheet - including the same button, which could then be used to create a 3rd copy as another continuation sheet if needed, and so on.
    I can't think of a way of doing it. Even if I managed to duplicate the page, the new copy would be pre-populated because the fields would have the same names. Therefore I'm now wondering if it's possible to make a button that would effectively unhide entire pages to achieve the same thing. Then I could perhaps create the form with nine copies of page 2, and unhide them one at a time based on use of the button. Again though, I'm not sure that's possible, and even if it is it would be pretty inelegant.
    Anyone have any bright ideas or alternative approaches I might not have considered?

    It is possible to do using the templates feature. If it needs to work with Reader, the only version that supports it without having to apply usage rights with LiveCycle Reader Extensions ($$$$) is Reader 11, so all of your Reader users would have to update to the latest version.
    Templates can be spawned so that the fields are automatically renamed, avoiding the issue you mentioned.

  • How to make a simple Plugin system?

    hey guys, first let me say I see very much hostility here, and I'm not here to annoy anyone, so if you don't feel like answering then simply don't.
    I want to design a simple Plugin System for my application. I think what I need is a bit of reassurance and redirection if I'm making wrong assumptions.
    here is the stages I see:
    1. the system has a HashMap<String,PluginTypeData> that holds types of plugins, and the folder of the application that hold the libraries files for the plugins among other details.
    (this would be saved in the application configuration file)
    2. once the application starts/on request the system would load the libraries into the memory.
    3. in each library there should be a file that holds the textual fully qualified name of the classes that this plugin would require to operate properly.
    4. the objects in the library would have to be familiar to the application, therefore they must implement or extend a known base object from the application, and once loaded a reference to that known base object is assigned to the new object.
    5. and then if I want to load a GUI component from the plugin I just get it from the reference.
    lets start with how does that sound? I would like to get a feed back, just a serious one please, that may help me understand any mistakes I might be doing, and not just to understand that I'm wrong....
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam Zehavi.
    Edited by: Adam-Z. on Dec 19, 2009 12:34 AM

    well, English is not my native, so I find it hard to describe, sometimes I feel the lack of words to describe what I want, and I have to take a break, and use a dictionary to find the right word to use, and sometimes these are basic words that I miss so I'm sorry if I'm not clear.
    And this will be required for every single plugin in exactly the same way? If not then each plugin should include a factory.Yes, they are all saved the save way, every plugin has a method that create an instance of a basic class J2MeDataChunk.
    The types of the data chunks are defined on the J2Me platform and only there.
    The reason that they are defined on the J2Me platform is because of the first limitation of the J2Me platform.
    1. I cannot import into the build path of the project any external libraries.Therefore in the future when I would like to add more chunk types, I would have to add them into the J2Me project as classes, and not as a jar in the build path, but the plugin would have to refer to the J2Me project and to know which chunk type it is going to edit.
    Each plugin knows how to edit a different type of J2MeDataChunk, the data chunks saves them selfs into a data output stream using a serialize method in each of them, and the serialize method is invoked from the plugin itself when the user (me) press the save button.
    "produce"? You mean a factory?No, I meant that the object I posted earlier (J2MeDataChunkType) is an object that represent the type of the data chunk for each of the data chunk types, and that there can only be one instance of the object that represent the type of the data chunk, and that single instance of the object that represent the type of the data chunk is the one that can create new instances of that data chunk type, it can create an empty data chunk,or to deserialize the data chunk type using a DataInputStream, and it has an abstract method, that returns Swing component only on the J2Se platform (a class that extends the J2MeDataChunkType object on the J2Se platform that overrides the abstract method for the editing Frame/Panel).
    What do you mean "external" libraries? Your code doesn't count right?I mean that a J2Me project cannot import other jar files into its build path, only the classes files that are in the project are known to the complier.
    The other two limitations are not limitations at all as far as I can see.well the third one might not be a limitation but it is a pain in the .. S since I have to implement every object I want to serialize myself
    but the second one, well, if you don't use the full strength of the 1.5 then you might not miss it, but there are so many elements I miss when programming on J2Me platform... like this one, I don't know how it is called:
    class A {
    class B  extends A {
    class C {
          A getA() {
    //  return instance of A
    class D extends C{
          B getA() {    // this is not implementable on J2Me, and I miss this for better implementation of things since I try to integrate my J2Me platform I'm building with J2Se application.
    //  return instance of B
    }moreover I miss enumeration, god I love using the
    for(Object o: objectList)very useful very efficient to use...
    and how could I leave generics out... wow no generics... terrible oh, and enums, no enums... hell if there were enums on J2Me... life would have been less gray.
    so yes I see all this as limitations, it slows me down allot, and it makes my code less readable.
    well since I try to build a bridge between the J2Me and J2Se platforms, and since there are some limitation to the J2Me platform* I needed to
    define a few things in a few objects, it was possible to make all the data to fit into one object, but it would make that object too heavy for the
    J2Me platform (besides I rather having two objects it felt more OOD right way to do), where one is a type definer that can produce only one
    instance of this object although it is inheritable,
    Memory in terms of the class or the instance? If the instance then it doesn't have much to do with this discussion. If the class then that impacts >your design because with a limited memory size and large impact then unloading might come up - and that requires a class loader.well this design actually adds an extra class for each type I decide to add to my platform although at the end I intend to join all the objects that represent the type of the data chunk into one object only on the J2Me platform which would actually add only one class to the memory on the phone, it is just easier for me to see things clearer now as I design this bridge application between the platforms, besides it allows maximum flexibility to create new types of chunks, and that was my main aim, to make as many types to be saved on files that I can transfer via a wireless onto the phone and the platform on the phone would know exactly what to use them the data chunks for with out any user intervention.
    as for instances, this way I reduce the memory each of the chunks would use and in the total calculation it would improve memory usage while creating objects from these chunks.
    Presumably you are managing the data items because the base class is going to provide functionality relevant to them.Right, the base class is the most common ground I could find for all the chunks together.
    Presuming that each "type" really is a type (say you have 4 interfaces any of which might be implemented) then you would need the following in
    a configuration file for each entry.
    1. Type of the implemented class.
    2. Full name of the implemented class
    3. Full name of the GUI dialog object.
    4. Optional Name of this entry. I suggest this as it allows you to report errors using this name rather than plugin class names
    Per your requirements there is no path nor jar is needed nor can be specified.well I hope that by now you did get that I generalized all the data chunk types that I created into one basic object which I posted earlier, this object handles everything, and the plugin main object would be design on the J2Se platform and would extend that J2MeDataChunkType class and it would return the Swing frame/panel when the J2Se application calls the getPanel method and an empty chunk on the getDataChunk() method.
    well, in my case it would extend an abstract class from the J2Me platform, maybe two object I'm still thinking about a better implementation >> so the plugin would be more simple, consist of only one object, that needs to be loaded.It shouldn't matter to you how the class is implemented.But of course it does, I want to make my life as simple as possible when I implement new plugins, having one object with abstract method, that when I extend it Eclipse would automatically add the abstract method for me to implement, and just a short glimpse at another implementation of the plugin would let me design another plugin in seconds.(with out making the GUI for the data chunk editing obviously).
    I think I got my head around this, especially now that it feels like I could explain what I'm making better in words.
    Thank you for taking the time to respond to my posts, I see you currently have 37k post so I guess you are a very quick typer, yet you take the time to try and understand my design. Thank you.
