Is it possible to sort rows by font color in Numbers ?

CC,
You probably had something in mind when you applied the colors to the text. It's always best to record the conditions directly rather than to indicate them indirectly by by use of color.
You can use Conditional Formatting to do some color coding based on the condition. You might even find that it's easier to let the conditional format tool than to assign the colors manually.

  • Sort rows by fill color?

    Is it possible in Numbers to sort rows based on the row fill color? There are only 2 colors the rows have as background (fill), and it would save time to sort based on the highlighted row. Any ideas?
    Thank you-

    I agree with jerrold.
    I will certainly not ask Apple for such a feature.
    Here is a script which may give you an efficient response.
    property columnOffset : 2
    tell application "Numbers"
    activate
    set {rName, tName, sName, dName} to my getSelection()
    if (character 2 of rName) as text > "9" then
    set columnLetter to text 1 thru 2 of rName
    else
    set columnLetter to character 1 of rName
    end if
    set twoNames to my decoupe(rName, ":")
    set {colNum1, rowNum1} to my decipher(item 1 of twoNames)
    set columnToSort to colNum1 + columnOffset
    tell document dName to tell sheet sName to tell table tName
    set myColor to background color of (get properties of range rName)
    set nbRows to count rows
    repeat with r from 1 to 14 --nbRows
    set val to background color of (get properties of range (columnLetter & r & ":" & columnLetter & r))
    set val to (val is myColor)
    set value of cell r of column columnToSort to val
    end repeat
    end tell
    end tell
    --=====
    on getSelection()
    local mySelectedRanges, sheetRanges, thisRange, _, myRange, myTable, mySheet, myDoc, mySelection
    tell application "Numbers"
    activate
    tell document 1
    set mySelectedRanges to selection range of every table of every sheet
    repeat with sheetRanges in mySelectedRanges
    repeat with thisRange in sheetRanges
    if contents of thisRange is not missing value then
    try
    --return thisRange --poorly formed result
    thisRange as text
    on error errMsg number errNum
    set {_, myRange, _, myTable, _, mySheet, _, myDoc} to my decoupe(errMsg, quote)
    --set mySelection to (a reference to (range rn of table tn of sheet sn))
    return {myRange, myTable, mySheet, myDoc}
    end try
    end if -- contents…
    end repeat -- thisRange
    end repeat -- sheetRanges
    end tell -- document 1
    end tell -- application
    return {missing value, missing value, missing value, missing value}
    end getSelection
    --=====
    on decipher(n)
    local letters, colNum, rowNum
    set letters to "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
    if (character 2 of n) as text > "9" then
    set colNum to (offset of (character 1 of n) in letters) * 64 + (offset of (character 2 of n) in letters)
    set rowNum to (text 3 thru -1 of n) as integer
    else
    set colNum to offset of (character 1 of n) in letters
    set rowNum to (text 2 thru -1 of n) as integer
    end if
    return {colNum, rowNum}
    end decipher
    --=====
    on decoupe(t, d)
    local l
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to d
    set l to text items of t
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
    return l
    end decoupe
    --=====
    Select a cell with the color to use in the sort.
    Run the script.
    It will fill the column whose offset from the selected one is defined by the property 'columnOffset'
    If the background of the cell in the source column is the searched one the value will be 1
    if the background is not this one, the value will be 0.
    So it will be easy to use a condition.

  • How do I change the font color for numbering in a matching question slide?

    I have a grey image on a question slide, but the numbering for the answers in a matching question is defaulting to grey so learners can't see to match up.  How can I change the font color of these choices?  Thanks.

    You probably edited the master slide without changing the theme colors? Check the Object Style for Answers in the Object Style Manager. The numbering takes the same color as the answer text.
    All depends on the Theme colors palette that you are using. Normally Question answers use the darkest tint of the fourth color. I started blogging about color management, but description of the use of Theme colors will be published later.

  • Sorting rows by choosen column.

    What kind of Array(Map, or any other data structure) should I use, if i want sort all rows by values in j-th column.
    Suppose i need to store data like this:
    Name | Surname | Telephone
    ---------| ---------------|--------------
    Dawid| Olaf | 3422353
    Jack | Ugly | 7872347
    Mike | Opis | 38483848
    And now i want sort all rows by Surname.
    Is there any covenient data structure to make such things ?

    Why you asking for ?
    I'm simply not familiarize with data structures in java and i thought that there is data structure in java like array, with possibility of sorting rows by choosen column.
    I think the only way to do that is use sortAllRowsBy(DefaultTableModel model, int colIndex, boolean ascending).

  • IDCS3 - Sort Rows in a Table

    Hello...is it possible to sort rows of text alphabetically in a table created in ID? Can't find any reference to that in Help.
    Thanks!

    Sounds like your easiest solution is to use the ORDER BY clause in your SQL statement:

  • How to change the background and font color of a particular row in table

    Hi,
       i need to change the background and font color of a particular row. I am using textview as table columns. I tried to do it using semanticColor property of textview  but the font color get changed for the whole column. But i want to change the color of a particular row only.
       If anybody knows please help me(give an example if possible).
           Thanks and regards.
            Pankaj Kumar.

    Hi Pankaj,
    In your data source context node (context node which is bound to dataSource property of Table UI elemennt) do following:
    If data source node is model node: create a value node under data source node, cardinality 1..1, selection 1..1, singleton false. In this new node add value attribute and set property readOnly=true, calculated=true, property com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.TextViewSemanticColor .
    If datasource node is value add value attribute and set property readOnly=true, calculated=true, property com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.TextViewSemanticColor.
    In calculated getter method put your color calculation depending on conditions, like:
    return <condition>
      ? WDTextViewSemanticColor.CRITICAL
      : WDTextViewSemanticColor.STANDARD;
    Bind new created attribute with property semanticColor of textview.
    Best regards, Maksim Rashchynski.

  • How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?

    How do you set the font color for a specific entire row inside a JTable?
    I want to change the font color for only a couple of rows inside a JTable.
    I've seen some ways to possibly do this with an individual cell.
    Clarification on changing the font color in an individual cell would be helpful too if
    there is no easy way to do this for a row.

    hai,
    Try out with this piece of code.Create your table and assign the renderer to each column in the table.
    CellColorRenderer m_CellColorRenderer = new CellColorRenderer();
    for(int i=0;i<your_JTable.getColumnCount();i++)
    your_JTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(m_CellColorRenderer);
    class CellColorRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer
    CellColorRenderer()     
    setOpaque(true);     
    setHorizontalAlignment(LEFT);
    setVerticalAlignment(CENTER);
    setBackground(Color.white);
    setForeground(Color.black);
    protected void setValue(Object value)
         setText((value == null) ? "" : value.toString());
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,int column)
         if(isSelected == true)
              setForeground(Color.red);
         else
              setForeground(Color.black);
         setValue(value);

  • Sort rows in JTable except the last row

    Hi All,
    I have a JTable, which contains columns with numbers. The last row contains column sums.
    I want to be able to sort rows, but the last row with sums must remain motionless.
    Does anyone know the solution of this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    These two posts are my example. It works pretty good but there is one significant niggle - when moving a column the 'total' table does not move smoothly but it does move. I look forward to 'camickr' reducing this to about 1 line.

  • How to change the font color of a particular row in af:table

    I have a <af:table> bounded to a readonly ViewObject and this view object is a collection of an sql query. Now when this table is rendered i want font color of the specific attributes to be changed based on certain logic.
    Eg. If my af:table is showing a resultset which has Attributest like ... EmployeeName | BalanceLeave . Then i want that the BalanceLeave value shoud be displayed in RED color if leave balance attribute value is more than 20.
    Please help me on this.

    For this you use the styleClass property of the attribute and use an EL bound to a managed bean to return the desired style.
    Something like this to switch the color public class ColorSwitchBean {
        public ColorSwitchBean() {
            super();
        String mStyleClass = null;
    String mColorSyle = null;
        public String getStyleClass() {
            FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
            ELContext elc = fc.getELContext();
            ExpressionFactory elf = fc.getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
            String sval =
                (String)elf.createValueExpression(elc, "#{row.City}", Object.class).getValue(elc);
            if (sval.startsWith("S"))
                mStyleClass = "red_background";
            else if (sval.startsWith("M"))
                mStyleClass = "green_background";
            else
                mStyleClass="";
            return mStyleClass;
         public void setStyleClass(String aStyleClass) {
            mStyleClass = aStyleClass;
        public void setColorSyle(String mColorSyle) {
            this.mColorSyle = mColorSyle;
        public String getColorSyle() {
          FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
          ELContext elc = fc.getELContext();
          ExpressionFactory elf = fc.getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
          String sval =
              (String)elf.createValueExpression(elc, "#{row.City}", Object.class).getValue(elc);
          mColorSyle = "";
          if (sval.startsWith("S")) {
              mColorSyle = "background-color:Red";
          else if (sval.startsWith("M")) {
              mColorSyle = "background-color:Green";
          return mColorSyle;
    }and this inside the table:- <af:column sortProperty="City" sortable="true" headerText="#{bindings.Departments.hints.City.label}" id="c1" styleClass="#{ColorSwitchBean.styleClass}">
      <af:outputText value="#{row.City}" id="ot2" /> Timo

    Hi Poojith
    Not sure if this would solve your requirment but just in case might be helpful:
    1. We can mix up the HTML and HTMLB components in the JSP Page. However, can access only the HTMLB components in the controller. The following link refers to what customizations are offered by the HTMLB framework:
    [http://www.sapdesignguild.org/resources/htmlb_guidance/]
    2. Another option would be to use AbstractPortalComponents or a simple web app if that's feasible. (where custom UI themes, css and layout are more in control of the developers.)
    Thanks

  • PhE11: No possibility to sort my pictures by file name !  Why not ?? (Like in PhE 9)  Tha

    There is in PHE 11 Editorno longer a possibility to sort my pictures by file name !  Why not ?? (Like in PhE 9)  That creates a big problem working with my thousands of files !

    dear Brett N
    I am a new macbook user forced to give up Digital Image Pro (winXP), and looking for a photo program that sorts BY NAME. REPEAT BY NAME.
    I was ready to purchase PSE11, but luckily I read this forum and saw that in your infinite wisdom you spared every expense and removed this function.
    I have no need for face recognition, type of photo, etc.
    Should I abandon 15 years of files all sorted by where they were taken?
    I think not. For you to do this to previous owners shows a blatant disregard for them.
    I will look elsewhere and not to a Photoshop product.
    Should you provide an update that corrects this I would consider installing it on my 2 new Apple machines. Hurry though......

  • Is it possible to sort a playlist alphabetically...

    Is it possible to sort a PLAYLIST or ARTIST songlist alphabetically in itunes and retain that order on ipod (Classic)? Some of my playlists or artist's songlists have literally hundreds of songs and it is cumbersome to try to locate a particular song when using the ipod. I realize that the songs are alphabetized under the song category but I would like them alphabetized by song in a particular playlist or artist songlist for ease of access. Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it? Thanks in advance

    Anyone? I agree with @sully1961 – I have a playlist for "4 & 5 star" tracks and sometimes would like to listen to a specific track followed by other 4 & 5 star rated tracks. As it is now, they sort by album and I can never find what I'm looking for. I swear in the past the sort order was maintained from the sort order in iTunes – am I mistaken?

  • Is it possible to sort text/imessages in alphabetical order??

    Is it possible to sort text/iMessages into alphabetical order instead of just by date??  Would be great to have the option to sort by different filters or even to initiate a search of a particular subject/word or persons name.

    Didnt think so.  APPLE!!!  Would be good to have please!!!

  • Is it possible to sort by multiple fields?

    Is it possible to sort the music library by multiple fields in a prioritised order? For example, I would like to sort by the following columns, in the following order:
    Album Artist
    Album
    Track Number
    for some reason I can't seem to do this, sorting by Album artist alone is not working for me, as some CD's I've imported have featured artists and this breaksup the listing order.
    Thanks

    Thanks Thomas
    Unfortunately, this solution did not work for me, cover flow still shows multiple instances of the same artwork for various groups of tracks from the same album.
    The thing I don't understand is why sorting by the "sort album artist" field does not group all the tracks from an album together.
    My specific example (I still can't get a screenshot posted):
    I have two Gwen Stefani albums, both ripped from CD (not imported from the itunes store). both albums have a majority of track where Gwen is the only artist and two or three track with featured artists. I have filled the "album artist" and "sort album artist" tags to all read Gwen Stefani, however, if I sort by either of these columns (in cover flow mode), what I get is this:
    all the tracks from one ablum where Gwen Stefani is the artist
    then all the tracks from the other album where Gwen Stefani is the artist
    then (in alphabetical order by featured artist) the remaining tracks from both albums - ie, the albums are mixed up
    for each group of track I see an cover flow art work.
    I should say that I have turned off the compilation tag on all of my albums because this ends up saving the file in a compilation folder, not in the artist folder on my hard drive - but it doesn't make a difference either way to the way I see the files sorted in itunes.
    It's really frustrating!
