Numbers ought to keep check box that allows carriage return within a cell universally within a table

Apple really fell asleep at the switch when releasing its latest version of Numbers 2013 (3.2), because it ignored the universal learning styles of human beings who have used the software in earlier releases and seemed to change features with little consideration for the community as a whole.
For example, why would you delete the feature that allows a user to turn-on or turn-off the "carriage return within a cell".  It seems smart of them to add the abilityt to simply press the Option key and hit return at the same time to allow a carriage return within a cell, but why would you DELETE the feature that allows returns within a cell universally within a table? 
And then the Inspector got completely revised.
Time saved in creating technologies gets eaten up in having to relearn technology every time a new release is created that doesn't build on the previous release very well.

Adamo,
You are complaining to fellow users.  It is best to post your feedback to Apple using the menu item
"Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback"

  • How to create a check box that can be unchecked

    How do I create check boxes that can be checked and the unchecked in Forms Central?
    For example, if you accidentally check a box - you want to uncheck it. Right now it doesn't allow you to do that.
    please help.
    Thanks
    Gen

    Are you sure you're not using radio buttons? Check boxes behave the way you'd expect for me with a form generated by FormsCentral.
    I'm going to move this to the FormsCentral form since the team there may want to take a look at the form.

  • Check boxes that turn layers on and off

    hay all
    im fairly new to this part of adobe but i have a good understanding
    what i need i to be able to have check boxes that turn layers on and off when the tick is shown and when it is not
    i know this is possible through scripting but i dont have the ability as of yet to carry out the scripting
    is someone able to write a basic script for me or help me to understand what i need
    i want the script to be for when a check box is clicked (mouse up) that a layer that was oringaly turned off to be turned on (electricalplan)
    once the tick is removed i need the layer to turn off again
    i need to do this for mulitple layers (about 10)
    so i would just use the same script for each replacing the name with the correct name.
    i also need the check boxes to work together so that i can have multiple turned on at the one time (electricalplan) (sewerplan) (waterplan)

    Do you know how to access fields with JavaScript? I access the script way of the check box properties and selecting the actions tab.
    Do you know how to set the optional value for a check box? Yes    
    Can more than one layer be displayed at a time? Yes
    Do you want to toggle the OCG by name or element number in the OCG array? I would like to toggle by name

    Is there any app that allows me to control the cell phone from the computer with the mouse?

    No this is not possible.
    But you could use the iPhone Simulator of Xcode if you have access to an Mac. Like the name explains, it simulates an iPhone on an Mac, but you cannot use all standard apps

  • Numbers for iPad totalling check boxes

    I am very new to Numbers on iPad. I have been searching for how to total check boxes and gather that you use the function "countif" Am I missing something? I look in functions and can only see count or if, but not a countif option. How do you select this function?

    John, Is that for the desktop version of numbers? Sounds like it with the reference to the Insert menu.
    on Numbers for IPad, you
    double tap a cell
    tap the equal button above the keyboard that shows up
    tap "functions" to the right
    Tap "Categories" on the top of the floating window
    then Statistical.
    Browse for Countif
    Tap countif to add it to your formula.
    The first argument is highlighted, so tap the reference range to be tested
    Tap the second argument bubble for condition.
    Tap the True/False button twice to cycle through to True
    Tap the GReen check mark to finish
    Jason

  • Calculate only checked boxes that are checked. Other "lines" of boxes do not have a value. HELPPPPPP

    I have say 6 possible lines. Each line will allow the user to enter employee goals. Then to the right of that, there are radio buttons that the user will check, marking the percentage that particular goal is complete. However, not every employee will have 6 goals, they may only have 3 and some may have all 6 or say, 2. What I want to do is only calculate those lines which have a goal and a percentage marked. So in the end, I want to total the checked boxes which will each have a value and then divide that by the number of goals for that particular employee.
    PLEASE, explain this to me so I can understand it. Like I said, I am extremely new to creating forms and LiveCycle. I really hope I can get the answer to this.
    Thank you in advance.

    And NOW, when I am attempting to put in my script for the radio buttons that have values, the area where it should total is NOT correct. This is my script:
    $=Page1.RadioButtonList.unlead1+xfa.resolveNode("Page1.RadioButtonList.#field[1]")+xfa.resolveNode("Page1.RadioButtonList.#field[2]")+xfa.resolveNode("Page1.RadioButtonList.#field[3]")+
    xfa.resolveNode("Page1.RadioButtonList.#field[4]")
    The area that has the total, only has the number 5 in it when I click on the first checked box. (radio button) however, the value is set at one. PLEASE help, I am about to rip my hair out.

  • How to create a check box that will result in text being hidden or visable?

    I am creating a PDF form and have a section where a reference needs to be entered.
    My problem is that the references are each several lines long therefore I cannot use a drop down for the user to select.
    To combat this I want to have 3 check boxes, each which relate to a specific reference.When the check box is ticked the reference will be displayed.
    If the box is un-ticked the reference will be hidden.
    Any help or other ideas to solve this issue would be Much appreciated.

    OK, so I have managed to make the check button make an option hidden, however I cannot make it reappear. I have also set a button at the top of the form to reset it but this does not work on these boxes.......

    1. The scrolling, as far as I've been able to determine, is by using the slide bar to the right of most diplays. There are no up or down arrows that allow slow movement
    2. The top and botton toolbars are not visible. The top one appears when you point the arrow to the top of the screen but the same doesn't work well if at all pointing the cursor to the bottom.
    3. When downloading, something jumps to the upper right of the screen. I could point and click it and get a diplay if my downloads. I was attempting to fix some of the above. Now the little thing jumps off the screen and I can't get to it.
    4I was trying to installMacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.3. I got message it couldn't be installed on my system.
    5. The red yellow and blue bullets that allow shutting down, minimizing and maximizing are missing on most open windows.
    Can you do something about these problems
    It's problematical that one can't communicate directly with Apple to resolve these problems
    <Edited By Host>

    1: I'm scrolling this page right now using the arrow keys.
    2: Press the escape (esc) key to exit full-screen mode. Select Apple menu > Dock > Turn Hiding Off.
    3: ???
    4: That's because you downloaded an update for another model.
    5: See 2.

  • How do I selectively  convert check boxes (Alt0168 Wingdings) but NOT Bookmarks into editable fields (from Word table)

    Acrobat X (Windows) is converting all fields from the Word table - making even the imported bookmarks editable. We just want the check boxes interactive. This has to be done on a large volume of documents, so it needs to be automated. I suspect some coding will be involved or perhaps a 3rd party app that allows one to selectively convert fields.
    Thanks!

    Ok, I found out that I need to apply the patch 5746875 to have that. But there only instruction to apply this patch on unix env. I need on Windows. Can any body help me?

  • Is there an app that allows me to use my cell phone as a router/modem?

    I am new to the iPad/Apple world, and trying to learn as much as I can.  Is there an application that will allow me to use my cell phone as a router/modem?

    Depends on your phone.  I phones and most droid smartphone will act as a hotspot.  Check yours out.  You will need your carrier to agree.  At and t  does tethering from an I phone for $20 per month.  You don't need an app.  If the phone produces a wifi hot spot the pad will see it, and you are good to go.

  • SQL Loader - Loading Text File into Oracle Table that has carriage returns

    Hi All,
    I have a text file that I need to load into a table in Oracle using SQL Loader. I'm used to loading csv or comma delimited files into Oracle so I'm not sure what the syntax is when it comes to loading a text file that essentially has one value per row and each row is separated by a carriage return. So when you open the text file, the records look like this:
    999999999 <CRLF>
    888888889 <CRLF>
    456777777 <CRLF>
    456555535 <CRLF>
    345688888 <CRLF>
    So each row is separated by a hard return and I need to tell sql loader that the hard return or next row is the next value to insert into the table. Below is an example of a control file I tend to use as a template for loading csv files but I need to modify it to accomodate this new structure.
    OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE,ROWS=100000)
    UNRECOVERABLE
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE 'C:\input.txt'
    BADFILE 'C:\input.bad'
    APPEND
    INTO TABLE TEST_TABLE
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    COLUMN_1
    How to I modify the control file above to use hard returns as the field/row delimiter for my text file?
    Thanks

  • WE HAVE A CLIENT COMPUTER IN THE SHOP (EXPANION UNIT). WE CAN'T RUN FIREFOX ON IT AND OFFICE COMPUTER AT SAME TIME. I HAVE CHECKED THE BOX THAT ALLOWS US TO RUN AS DIFFERENT USERS, BUT IT STILL IS NOT ALOWING ME TO LOG ON. SUGGESTIONS?

    The box is under properties, 2nd tab, then advanced. We are currently using the same log on for both computers. Do we need to create a separate log on for the expanion unit or?

    I would suggest trying it as different users.

  • How do I create an event driven dialog box that allows the user to input constants into my program?

    My goal is to have a box pop up when the executable for my program is run. The box will have a bunch of fields, and an OK and Cancel button. Ideally, the user will be made to change some of the values, and warnings (with another dialogue box) will pop up if the values are nonsensical, allowing the user to proceed or go back and change them. The constants will be clustered, to be used later in other VIs.
    Does anyone have a good template for this sort of VI? I looked at this article: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/8768/en/, but it doesn't go into enough detail to be helpful to me.

    This should get you started down the pathJust replace User data with your cluster and do the data integrity check in the value change event use a simple one button dialog to notify the user which values are out of compliance and disable and grey the OK button untill all conditions are met.

  • How do I get rid of the letter p that moves around to the end of blocks of text and if you click it shows a box that allows you to publish?

    It's a grey-ed lower case p that moves with the cursor to the end of paragraphs or stand alone sentences, ie doesn't move word by word or letter by letter. If I click it I get a box the at the top has OP RTV US and at the bottom of the box the word PRINT and the option to share.

    You mean press C+p? That just brings up the PRINT box

  • Why can't i tell browser to save jpgs everytime as a default? i always have to check box that tells it to save and the "do this everytime" box is grey and uncheckable

    Not very sure but i guess that we get the option to "do this every time" only when we download. It is not there when we are saving anything (perhaps that's how it has been designed so as to preserve the flexibility)
