Moving Around in Numbers Like in Excel

In Excel you can CTRL-arrow to move to the next blank cell in any direction or SHIFT-CTRL-arrow to select all cells between where you are and the next blank cell in any direction. Is there a similar keystroke in Numbers? If so, I haven't found it yet. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The screen shot didn't really clarify the question for me.
Here's what Jerry was describing, the Reorganization panel, Numbers's equivalent to the 'Denumire' panel shown in your screen shot:
It's currently set to show only rows of the table where the temperature is recorded as between 11 and 13 °C. I've clicked the + button to the right of that condition to add a second, but have not started to build that condition yet.

Barry

How to deal with moving around like in gta2?

Hi there,
I'm programming an game but i was wondering how to deal with moving around like in gta2.
my game is also top-down with you(tha player) constantly in the middle of the screen. I know how to deal with button press etc.. but how to calculate how manny pixels the map has to move in the x and y axis...
It's difficult to explain for me.. but hope the picture is clear..
greetings

I was afraid for this one already.. the picture is not clear:) thanx for your response so far.. I will try again.. with the game gta2 in mind:)
see this screenie: http://www.vollversion.de/bilder/705_1_full.jpg
My game looks the same as gta2 top down... with the character in the middle of the screen(the one firing the flame thwower )(the player). if i press up he walks towards the police car.. if i press left or right.. he only turns around(an combination of pressing up and left is also posible) thus the character walks in the direction he's facing.
Now i would like to know how did they do this? how to programm such a movement? Because the character is standing constnatly in the middle of the screen the map has to move like in almost every game... how to calculate the x and y axis movement of the map?
Please.. try agian.. hopefully the screenie will help.

Can I lock individual cells in Numbers like I can in Excel?

I need to lock specific cells to protect the formulas in those cells. Is there anyway to do this in Numbers like there is in Excel?

No, Michele, you can only lock entire tables. What you must do is to segregate your stuff into what needs to be locked and what needs to be not locked, in separate tables, lock one table and keep the other open.

I'm trying to work in numbers on an Excel spreadsheet that I e-mailed to it. Numbers moves the graphs and charts around. How do I get it to transfer cleanly into numbers?

If you really need to work in excel and you need to collaborate with others in excel you should avoid the frustration and use excel. I would only recommend using Numbers if you are using it to open a file you do not intend to open in excel again OR if the document is very simple. If you paycheck or grade depends on Numbers importing or exports from/to excel you should use excel directly.

Pages & Numbers vs Word & Excel

I've seen many threads on this subject and wanted to add my own observations, which may help someone trying to make a decision on which suite they may need. Personally I use both since they have different strengths and weaknesses. I haven't worked much with Keynote or PowerPoint so I'll skip them.
I work in a WinXP eviroment so Office is what I use 8-5, mostly Excel and Access. At home, I'm a freelance photographer and custom print designer. I've done sales flyers, restaurant menus, advertising, and custom graphics. I've done a lot of custom marketing materials for my work and always fire up my Macbook, showing off what a Mac can do better than any Windows software we have.
iWork is predominantly a typesetting suite. If the end result is to be printed, then iWork really has the better tool set. Pages is easier to work with than Word for working with text boxes, images, backgrounds, and imbedded spreadsheet tables. I find it more intuitive and the tools make more sense, and it's a true WYSIWYG from sceen to printer. Numbers is easier to work with than Excel, again for printed output. Tables and graphs can be moved around to create a more flowing presentation. I also love versions... being able to go back to a previous version is a huge timesaver if a particular layout is not working out. Another plus to iWork is Pages and Numbers for iOS at $9.95 each. I can sync files to the cloud and have access to them on my iPhone anywhere anytime.
If printing is not your goal, or you need to share or collaborate, then Office is the better suite simply because the files will transfer virtually seamlessly between Mac and Windows versions. Many university professors also require .DOC and .XLS files for assignments, and Word has better tools for footnotes, bibliography, and table of contents, and as many reviewers have noted, will handle 100+ page files better than Pages. As for Excel, Numbers just can't compete when it comes to power number crunching on huge spreadsheets. Numbers is great for a budget, grocery list, or pie charts, but if you need to set up complex arrays, multi-point statistics, heavy calculus or physics equations, or need to graph a wormhole, Excel is your tool. For iOS devices, I'd recommend DataVis Documents-To-Go ($9.95 or $16.99 for Premier on AppStore) to work with Office files on your iPad or iPhone.
Amazon has Office Home & Student for $99 single license, or $117 for the 3 user family pack. iWork for $79, $99 family pack. There are free alternatives to both such as OpenOffice but I'm not getting into that debate. I've used OO but I don't like it's interface and the way it works. It's just not Pages or Numbers.
So, for my personal workflow, I prefer iWork for in-house documents, letters, simple spreadsheets, and anything that doesn't need editing outside. For simple documents, I'll just export to .DOC format and check it in Word before emailing or uploading. I share PDF's for printed output that needs approval and I use Office for collaboration files. I actually use Software McKiev's PrintShop 2 ($69.95) for more complex layouts like flyers, business cards, labels, greeting cards, custom envelopes, and advertising graphics. I try to use the best tool for the job since I've really never found a Swiss Army knife suite that does everything well.
If you're a student or writer and need tools for footnotes, TOC's, bibliographies, heavy calculating and graphing, then you'll get better mileage out of Office than iWork. If you're working more with the presentation of information in a printed format, then iWork will probably be easier to get the output you're looking for. Businesses can easily use both as I do.
Both suites have thier fans and haters... all I'm saying is they both will do the job, just some jobs are easier using one or the other.

Well first Congrats on your new Mac!
Honestly its going to be a personal choice... I use iWork at home and for personal use, but I have to use Office for Mac at work. I personally believe iWork is easier to use and seems to be more reliable.
Next thing: Mail or Outlook?
Well I love Mail I would say Mail all the way. Super sleek look and really easy to use.
Now you are asking for an individual breakdown... so here it is:
Excel vs. Numbers: Excel
Pages vs. Word: Pages
Keynote vs. Powerpoint: Keynote
So I would suggest using iWork and Mail.
Wish you Best of luck!

Photos in Numbers, save to excel

My client wants a spreadsheet with images inserted. I can add the images in Numbers, but it won't keep the images when I export to Excel. Excel does handle images in the spreadsheet, but not the way Numbers does. Is there any way around this little impasse? A different way of inserting an image, rather than having an image fill?
I'm new to Numbers, still testing it out, but if it works out, I'll be soooo glad to not have to buy Excel ever again!
jan

Here is what works. paste images into Numbers like this image (outside of a cell):
Export document to Excel:
Open in Excel:
One potential issue would be that the image is placed in the correct location.

Photoshop CS2 redraw garbage when moving around an image window on my G4 laptop

Hi.I recently had to reinstall Photoshop CS2 onto my Mac Laptop 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4, running system 10.4.11, which required a new hard drive after the old one died. I am immediatly encountering a serious redraw/image repositioning problem in Photoshop that I have never seen before, and in Imageready as well. This does not happen in Macromedia Fireworks 8 however.
I am zoomed into an image. Using the hand tool, or the scroll bars or the arrows, as soon as I move an image little messed up line graphic glitches appear and stay in place for the remainder or working with an image, and ultimately covers the image completely after moving around within it a number of times. you can see examples of this in these screenshots I've uploaded:
http://pixeljam.com/temp/photoshopRedrawGarbage/moveGarbage04.gif
http://pixeljam.com/temp/photoshopRedrawGarbage/moveGarbage03.gif
http://pixeljam.com/temp/photoshopRedrawGarbage/moveGarbage02.gif
and the lines stay the same size and position even when zooming in. here's the same image w/ the same defects zoomed out and in:
http://pixeljam.com/temp/photoshopRedrawGarbage/moveGarbage01.gif
http://pixeljam.com/temp/photoshopRedrawGarbage/moveGarbage01_zoomed.gif
I've tried trashing & re-installing photoshop completely, tried running it before the updates needed from the original Photoshop application disk, and after. still the same problem.
This occurs only when using the laptop on its own. When I hook it up to my Apple Studio Cinema Display, it works fine. The problem does not occur on the Cinema Display OR the laptop screen! it's very odd. Basically, the laptop is now something I cannot actually use away from my desk until this is resolved.
Has anyone ever encountered this or possibly have any suggestions or advice? Thanks so much!

Hi. Thanks for your responses. There is definitely some incorrectness in the info I provided about the computer. for the Hard Drive, it's odd.. I copied and pasted that from my system profiler.. In actuality the Hard Drive is 74.53 GB. Not sure how that error occurred.
Also I looked again at the computer's memory. I forgot the second larger 1GB memory card when I was copying and pasting from the system profiler. Sorry about that. I was in a but of a rush to get the question out.

Another thing I noticed about the problem I'm facing is that it leaves defects from mouse trails as well in the image window. None of the defects are lasting nor will they print. I close the file and they go away, if I zoom, they stay the same size. I'd agree, it sounds like a video card problem, but the reason I posted here is that only in photoshop and imageready do these problems occur. My guess, if it's the video card is that they are just programs that require more of the system. why my video card would be crapping out now, I have no idea. but I guess that's how it goes.
But why would it work fine when hooked up to the apple cinema display? even on the laptop screen itself the problem is not present. only when the laptop is on its own.
The computer has served me very well for almost 3 years without this problem, so that's why it's something that is not a normal problem that should be expected from this computer. I am grateful to have it & can't afford a new one.. this one is still sitting on my credit card balance. Thankfully I am under the applecare protection plan and will bring it in to the local Mac shop on monday and demonstrate the issue to them.
Thanks for your replies.

Not happy with moving around keys on the timeline

I just changed from Final Cut to Premiere CS5.0 and I really like it. Working on a Macbook Pro i5 2.3GHZ, Mac OSX 10.7 But I am not happy with moving around on the timeline. I was used to using the up and down arrows to move to next video edit point, marker point or audio edit point. I tried everything to change it, highlighted the track etc. It only works together with the FN key, which is a bit uncomfortable. And then it definetely is not going to any audio edit points (very annoying!!!) and marker points (have to use Q and W keys). It makes me doubting if continuing with Premiere or not. Its such an esencial and easy to use tool while editing in a normal fast editing rythm. When I change it in the customize keyboard menu, into a Custom keyboard or FCP keyboard, it would ignore my changes on the arrowkeys, although it recognizes any other changes I do. Is it so complicate to change this issue in Premiere to how it is set in FCP? Its such an obvious tool, using the arow keys to move around, cannot beleive that we have to live with such a limitation. Please!!!

You dont have to live with that at all if you are fixed only to what you have previously done.

Windows Crashes with JRE 1.4.2 When Moving around JDialog

Hi!
I work on a Java Applet/application that was originally written to run on java 1.1 -- only AWT that too. Recently I managed to convince my manager (and his manager and his manager) to migrate from the AWT framework on java 1.1 (Microsoft JVM that is ) to Swing/JFC on Sun Java 1.4.2 ... it took a lot of explaining, demostrating, begging, pleading etc., to get this project funded.
Now, my app is all developed in JFC and ready for deployment and during testing found a potential show stopper -- When a Dialog Box or any moveable componant (internal windows etc) is moved around (holding down the mouse on the title bar of a dialog and dragging it around), the OS simply froze up ... nothing could be done other than power cycling the PC. Does anyone know if its a bug in JRE 1.4.2 and if it has been fixed?? This could potentially result in rolling back to AWT :(( .... and of course me looking like a fool in front of my manager!!
..... Please provide any suggestion other than moving to JRE 1.5.x beta. I've also noticed this happening in other Java Applications (Netbeans for example). So, I think this is a major bug the JRE 1.4.2.
A million thanks and few Duke Dollars for anyone pointing me in the right direction.
Note:
1. This problem is not just with my app ... some other java apps that are installed on my workstation (like netbeans) behave the same when Moving Around dialog boxes.
2. The behaviour is very random. But it has happened multiple times (and the very first time my manager run our app on jre 1.4.2)
I would give a million dollars if I had them. But for now, please do with the million thanks and few duke dollars.

Have you tried this on another machine?Yes ... actually this has happened on a few workstations here ... all of them are Pentium IV based dell workstations running Windows 2000.
What exact version of 1.4.2 did you download?Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.4.2_04
Using JRE version 1.4.2_04 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
Have you searched the bug database? This one could be related to yours:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4673572
This sounds similar but the difference is its not just the app that feezes up (so that you could do an alt+ctrl+del and kill it)..... the OS freezes up and you can move the mouse around still the system even queu e is not full and eventuall all I hear is the beeping. At this point I've to power cycle.
Is there any way you could post the code or is it too big? Or, have you tried just creating a very small >application or applet that just shows one dialog, and if so, does that show the same problem? (What I'm >trying to get at here is - is it something in your code that is causing this, or something in the JRE, or >perhaps something to do with your machine's configuration/OS?)Unfortunately I cannot post the code ... its company rules and regulations. I've tried creating a very small app and it appears to work ok .... but randomly causes this freeze up. There is no definate pattern (except that it happens when you move around a JDialog or a JInternalFrame) . It could freeze up some time and work perfectly fine at other times. It has actually happened on other applications too (Netbeans, JEdit etc). That's why I suspect this might be a obscure bug in the JRE.
I'll try to find a pattern so that it can be re-produced by everyone.
Thanks for the help.

Why when I am converting a word doc into a PDF are some of the pages moving around. It appears to be

Why when I am converting a 50 page word doc into a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro the pages are moving around.
It appears to be happening in the places where the previous page is not a complete full page, just a half page.
It is moving these pages up into the previous half page, but it is only moving them several lines into that page
Which has totally distored my e-book.
It is attaching all my pattern sheets at the very end of the file okay, etc.

Also, to be more sure you get in the PDF what you are seeing in WORD, go to the print menu and select the Adobe PDF printer, then go back to editing. The is a feature of almost all word processors to reflow the document for best results with the attached printer. It is also one of the problems of using WORD forms that such form designers miss. If you don't like the reflow, many the Adobe PDF printer your default and always print to Acrobat. If you want it to go to a printer, then print from Acrobat to that printer and it should remain intact. The other way to avoid the reflow is to use a layout program like Publisher or InDesign.
