Is there a way to add multiple borders to a single cell with one click or do I have to add one border at a time for example, one cell with borders on three sides?

I would like to know if there is a way to add multiple borders to a single cell or selection of cells in one click.  At this time, if i want to add for example a top border and a bottom border to a single cell I have to do this in two steps: first select the top border, style, thickness, and color, and then next select the bottom border, style, thickness, and color.  Is there a way to select the top and bottom border of a cell in one click?  Clicking on the top border then holding down the command key while selecting the bottom border does not work, nor does holding down the option key, the control key, or the shift key work. Thanks for your help.

Thank you for the suggestion but this did not work for my Mac.  When a cell is selected for which I want borders, the entire cell is lit up.  Then when I go to the border tool and select style, thickness, and color, the entire lit up cell takes on the border, that is the Outside Edges of the cell now have a border.  So selecting the style, thickness, and color first doesn't work.
If I select the top border first (or any border), the drop down goes away and I can't select multiple borders - I get to choose one at a time.  After selecting one border, style, thickness, and color, said border is now on the spreadsheet.  Then I go back to the border selection and pick another border and the the previously selected style, thickness, and color reverts to null, so I start over with the new border style, thickness, and color.  Yes, it is tedious.
The Fix would allow the user to select multiple borders, say left and right, before the drop down goes away after selecting only one border
Does it have something to do with Allow or Disallow border selection?
I have Numbers '09 version 2.1 (436)

    __Is there a way to 'merge' multiple curves into a single curve?
    By this I mean I have file with 2-12 curve layers - I wanted to 'merge' the curves so that I can end up with a single curve with the attributes of many. Maybe is there a script that would do this?

    I don't mean to be critical, but how do you get to a situation where you have 12 successive Curves layers?
    The advantage to a Curves layer is that you can adjust and re-adjust it to your heart's content.
    If you're habitually adding new Curves layers one over the other, maybe you should re-evaluate your process of working...  Perhaps the way you're thinking you should just work at a high bit depth and do repeated Curves operations on the pixels?  Or put some time into retraining yourself to not add a new Curves layer but to manipulate the one that's already there.  There are some nice new enhancements (e.g., the "finger" subtool that allows you to choose a spot in the image and manipulate that part of the curve).
    Again, I'm not trying to criticize you, just looking to see if maybe there's a way to avoid getting to the point where you need to combine Curves in the first place, since there's no direct "Merge Curves" capability, outside of just stamping a set of image and adjustment layers into pixels.  For completeness I suppose I should mention how to do that...  You can Stamp any combination of visible layers into a single layer of pixels (effectively combining all the Curves layers et. al.) by pressing Control - Shift - Alt - E.

    Can Any one tell me, is there any way to create multiple users in a single shot in oracle database.

    Hello Nunhum,
    I guess this was not my question.. This is not what I m asking.. I know there is not a single sql statement in oracle ,which could create multiusers alike UNIX/LINUX(OS LEVEL), Whatever you have written..is simple creating them one by one.
    What I am expecting is to have PL/SQL statement which could help us in this regard.

  • In Aperture, Under "Adjustments" is there any way to permanently and "Edge sharpen" and "Sharpen" to my  list, so I don't have to add it everytime?

    I am on an Macbook Pro and an Imac with Yosemite 10.10.1 and Aperture 3.6. When I go under adjustments, I always crop, adjust vertical, edge sharpen, and sharpen. Is there a way to add those , so they are listed  and I don't have to add them every time? Thanks.

    If it is not in the default set then Léonie's screen capture will look like this.  In her shot she has the brick as  part of her default set so hers says Remove.

  • Is there a way to create multiple map tile layers at once?

    Hello experts,
    I have a small problem. It's mainly a matter of saving some time. I need to create 51 map tile layers in mapviewer, and I would like to this this at one time. I can go to the admin console-->Management-->Manage Map Tile Layers-->Create, and then I can create one at a time. But it really would be nice to create them all at once!
    I tried using the XML mode interface, and I can use the following code to create one map tile layer:
    <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
    <map_tile_server_admin_request>
      <create_map_tile_layer data_source="xxxx">
        <map_tile_layer
            name="FOUNDATION"
            http_header_expires="168"
            image_format="PNG">
          <internal_map_source base_map="FOUNDATION"/>
          <tile_storage root_path="/scratch/tilecache" />
          <coordinate_system
              srid="8265"
              minX="-180" maxX="180" minY="-90" maxY="90"/>
          <tile_image width="250" height="250" />
          <zoom_levels levels="10" min_scale="5000" max_scale="10000000">
          </zoom_levels>
        </map_tile_layer>
      </create_map_tile_layer>
    </map_tile_server_admin_request> And it creates one layer. But when I try this:
    <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
    <map_tile_server_admin_request>
      <create_map_tile_layer data_source="xxxx">
        <map_tile_layer
            name="FOUNDATION"
            http_header_expires="168"

          <zoom_levels levels="10" min_scale="5000" max_scale="10000000">

    Is there any way to create multiple map tile layers at once?

    Michael,
    It looks like you are right! Thank you for your help.
    I still have a small concern. I looked at the documentation and it reads,
    "The configuration settings for a cache instance are stored in the USER_SDO_CACHED_MAPS metadata view. You should normally not manipulate this view directly, but should instead use the MapViewer administration tool, which uses this view to configure map cache instances."
    But, I tried inserting records into USER_SDO_CACHED_MAPS and it works, and I can't really see any reason not to directly insert records into this table, so...
    Perhaps that warning is there simply because potentially you could screw things up tinkering with the table directly.
    Cheers!
    John

  • Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordian at a same time

    Hi,
    Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordain at a same time.
    My requiremnets is something like this:--
    Thanks for any help on this in Advance.
    Regards
    Munira

    You can have multiple nodes open on a tree, so I guess you could open them all up on a button click.
    Another option that might be possible is to use individual Accordians for each section and then use the click function to close the others.

  • Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television screen simultaneously?

    Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television set concurrently?  The idea is to let multiple individuals do something on their iPads in a timed window and then display the results of each iPad users answer concurrently on te same television.

    Devices that display two, four, or even eight video signals on a single monitor are available in the video security market. Maybe you could find something there that would do what you want. A quick search on "security tv screen multiplexor" (without the quotes) yielded millions of pages; several on the first page looked promising if you don't mind composite video.

  • Is there a way of deleting multiple emails?

    It seems crazy to me that with all this technology the iphone has to offer it misses one of the most basic features and that is, being able to delete all emails. To sit there and delete them one at a time is a nightmare, surly it can not be that difficult to add this feature to the iphone. Also there is no way that i can be the only person who this is driving mad.
    If anybody knows of an easier way could you pls tell me what it is. The even worst thing about the deleting is that its not even that effective, i press edit then delete one at a time if it registers on the iphone. Sometimes you have to touch the button a few times for it to delete!
    Help before i go crazy! aaaaaah!

    This is not supported at the present time but if this is an IMAP account that you are also accessing with an email client on your computer, you can do the deletions with your computer's email client which will be reflected with the iPhone's email client automatically.
