Numbers - resizing individual cell

Is it possible to resize a single cell rather than resizing the entire column or row in Numbers?
Thank you

No.

Block, columns, files or individual cells in numbers?

Hello,
There's any way to block from editing an individual cell or file or column?
Normally I use some cells or columns to use specifyc formulas on them, with automathic results.
Not being able to block those, it's really easy to delete the formula.
I could use a Formular for editing data, and block the full table for showing results, but I would prefer to do it on the smae table as in excel, just having some columns editable and others not blocked with automathic formulas.
Is this possible somehow?
Thanks
Sergi.

I don't think so, unless maybe your formulas were on a different table on a different sheet and you just referenced them from the data entry table.
Also, have you looked into Forms? I don't use them much, but I do see that you cannot edit formulas from there.

Copy multiple phone numbers in a cell to individual cells

I have 2 large spread sheets that have phone number information enterd in a cell in a word wrap fashion. In other words they are all in one cell pertaining to the store the row contains data for. some of the lines have notes. Here is an exaple of the data
xxx-xxx-xxxx - Lead 1
xxx-xxx-xxxx - Lead 2
xxx-xxx-xxxx - Lead 2.
xxx-xxx-xxxx - Lead 1 - FAX
There are no spaces between the lines in the spread sheet.
Is there a way to automate copying the numbers to invidual cells?
I have to move the to cells to convert the data to a database. I started copying and pasting but was wondering if there is an easier way. I don't know VBS. If there isn't i'll jeep on with the ctrl-c - ctrl v.

How do you change the colors of individual cells within a 2D array?

How do you change the colors of individual cells within a 2D array of numeric indicators?
I want the VI to check a data value and if it is failing, white out a square at a specific index coordinate. I have it working with color boxes, but I'm not sure how to use the property node function, to change the color of individual cells, by coordinates.
I have attached the VI using color boxes. If you run the VI, the box corresponding to the Step control should turn white.
I want to do the same thing, using numeric indicator boxes inside the array.
Thanks for any suggestions...

Get rid of all these sequences! That's just bad form.
Your code has a few logical problems. Why do you create a boolean array if you later only look at the last element (Yes, the FOR loop does nothing useful, except in the last iteration because your outputs are not indexing. All other iterations are useless, you only get the result of the last array element. My guess is that you want to color the index white if at least one of the numbers is out if range. Right?
It is an absolute nightmare to manage all your numeric labels. Just read them from a 2D array. Now you can simply find the index of the matched elements and don't have to spend hours editing case structure conditions.
Attached is a simple example how you would do what I meant (LV7.1). Modify as needed.

Protect individual Cells?

Can you protect individual cells? I am trying to make an invoice. I want to make sure that when values are entered in a cell that they can not be changed, but you can change the quantity etc.
I know I can do in excel, but I am trying to convert my business to mac. I really need this to work on my mac as well as my Ipad. Help!

Protection ("Lock") can be set for only a whole table, not for individual cells.
One workaround is to use one table only for calculations, including transfers of values from a second table, used exclusively for data entry.
With some planning, it may be possible to incorporate both tables into a single invoice page.
OTOH, the ability to lock individual cells on a table seems a likely goal for a Feature Enhancement request. Go to the Application menu ("Numbers") in Numbers, and choose Provide Numbers Feedback. Be prepared to wait until at least the next version of Numbers to see any results.

Barry

I want to set up my spreadsheet to display 2 digits to the right of the decimal, even if zeros, and not have to do it to each individual cell.

I want to set up my spreadsheet to display two digits to the right of the decimal point, even if zeros, and not have to do it for each individual cell.

Select all the cells you want formatted that way (or the entire table if that's what you want)
Open the cell inspector
Set the format to "number" with 2 decimal places

Making OnLoad work in individual cells in multiple rows

Dear Raj et al...
thanks for your help with getting the java applet (JMOL) working in individual cells/rows in report tables.
I now need some help with getting OnLoad to work in each row.
I am able to make it work in an HTML region (not in a report table) where I use <body #ONLOAD#> in the HTML region and OnLoad="document.jmol.loadinline(getElementById('P16_text').value)"; in the 'On Load' region in page template.
However if I use OnLoad="document.jmol#AUTOKEY#.loadinline(getElementById('f01_#ROWNUM#').value)";
and put body tags in the Report Attributes\Column Formatting\html expression region where I have embeded the applet tags it doesn't work.
I don't think the #AUTOKEY# and #ROWNUM# are the problem as I also tried explicitly naming the objects:
OnLoad="document.jmol1.loadinline(getElementById('f01_1').value)";
and it still didn't work.
Again any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
-Dave

Actually I take that back...
"I don't think the #AUTOKEY# and #ROWNUM# are the problem as I also tried explicitly naming the objects:
OnLoad="document.jmol1.loadinline(getElementById('f01_1').value)"; and it still didn't work."
The reason this didn't work is that I had two javascript calls in the on load section and I obviously didn't format them properly (the first worked not the second).
In any case, this worked once it was made the only javascript call in the on load section.
When I tried to use #AUTOKEY# or #ROWNUM# these were then flagged with an "Invalid Character" error.
Do you have any suggestions as how to have variable names put in the "OnLoad" statement and will it work for the n rows that are queried?
Thanks a lot!

Find a range of numbers in one cell and output in another

Here I am again with something I just can't seem to find an answer to:
I need to find the range of numbers in one cell and place that value in another, like so:
Cell A1 says: "3 - 8"
Cell A2 returns: 5
Any simple formula to do this?

Hi gunkie83,
Yvan's formula does perform properly. He stated: Here the decimal separator is comma so Numbers use the semi-colon as parameters separator but the formula is OK. CAUTION, here I left the semi-colons.
Yvan is in France using the French version of iWork. For the U.S.A. semicolons need to be changed to a comas as I have in the following formulae.
=VALUE(LEFT(A,SEARCH("-",A)-1))-VALUE(RIGHT(A,LEN(A)-SEARCH("-",A)))
this returns -5
=ABS(VALUE(LEFT(A,SEARCH("-",A)-1))-VALUE(RIGHT(A,LEN(A)-SEARCH("-",A))))
this returns 5
One important observation in cell A2 the text reads as 3 - 8 not 3-8. Also it can be inputted as 3 -8 but not 3- 8. Watch those spaces. Fun huh.
Hope this helps. Again Yvan thank you.
Cordially,
RicD

Dynamically resize JTable cell to fit a JList

Hi!
I've been banging my head trying to add some dynamic behavior to a TableCellEditor. In short I'm trying trying to make it resize the height of the current row (the one it is in) to reflect the changes made to the JList used to let the user edit the cells value (which is a list of items).
I've come across some threads dealing with the problem of resizing a cell to fit its content. This however is usually only done once (in the 'getTableCellEditorComponent' function) and so only provides half the answer. Also, since the editor is only active during cell editing I've been trying to make it revert to the old cell height after the editing is done.
So far I have not come up with any decent solution to this problem and was hoping someone out there might have an idea or have read something similar and can point me to something helpful... anyone?
Cheers!
Teo

The Swing tutorial on[url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html]How to Use Tables shows how to dynamically change the size to Table Columns.
If you need help calculating the acutal size then try searching the forum. Using keywords "resize jtable column" (keywords I took directly from your topic title) I found some promising postings.

Individual Cell Referencing

Hi All,
This thread actually follows on from another, which you can find here: Multiple tables feeding one table
I don't believe it is possible to reference specific cells in a table in the manner you have described. You can reference the cells in an individual selected row of a table by using the corresponding field/column name. However, I don't think you can reference individual cells anywhere in the table like you can with Excel spreadsheets for example.
Judging from the response quoted above, it will be possible to calculate values for Column4, if:
Column4 = Column2 + Column3.
Example 1
--Column1Column2---Column3-----Column4
Row 1 -
80--
85
95--
180
Row 2 -
100--
130
160--
290
Row 3 -
200--
210
220--
430
Row 4 -
200--240260--
zzz
But it will not be possible to calculate values for Column4 , if:
Column4 = a value from another row Column1 + value from row in Column2.
Example 2
--Column1Column2---Column3-----Column4
Row 1 -
80--
8595--
185
Row 2 -
100--
130160--
330
Row 3 -
200--
210220--
410
Row 4 -
200--240260--
xyz
It is highly desirable to be able to reference particular cells and their values in order to be able to manipulate them a little further (as this info is not available at BI Cube level; arrives from different BI queries).
Is anyone able to confirm please?
Regards,
Chet.

Hi Chet,
Your understanding is accurate. As far as I am aware, it is not possible to achieve Example 2 because there is no way of specifiying the row reference for a table cell in a Visual Composer formula.
Since it is possible to perform cell calculations in BI, I would suggest that you try to define one BI query with all of the required information. In order to perform cell calculations in the query it must have a fixed layout, i.e. a column structure and a row structure.
Regards,
Mustafa.

Setting cell editor for individual cell in JTable

Hi there,
I want to provide individual cell editor for my JTable. Basically, my JTable shows property names and values. I want to show different cell editors for different properties.
I followed the advice in this post:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=423318
but I have a question:
I looked at the code of DefaultCellEditor. It just has a single editor component (the one provided in the constructor), so all the methods use the same component and certain aspects are customized for the type of component. Again, there can be only one type of component at a time.The problem that I am facing is that I will have different components for different row/column of the same table. So how do I implement some of the methods (for example, getCellEditorValue()), when I have multiple editor components?
Also, how do I commit changes made by the user?
I am extremely confused.
Someone please help!
Thanks.

Actually, that's what I am currently doing.
Here is my cell editor class:
public class ObjectPropertyEditor extends DefaultCellEditor
       public ObjectPropertyEditor()
          super(new JTextField());
          Vector list = new Vector();
          list.add("Yes");
          list.add("No");
         myCombo = new JComboBox(list);
      public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value,
          boolean isSelected, int row, int column)
         String colName = (String)table.getValueAt(row,0);
         if(colName.equalsIgnoreCase("Leaf-Node?")) //if it is the "Leaf" property, return the combo box as the editor
             return myCombo;
        else //for all other properties, use JTextField of the super class
            return super.getTableCellEditorComponent(table,value,isSelected,row,column);
    private JComboBox myCombo;
}The problem I have is that when I select a new item from the combo box, the new selection is not reflected in the tableModel. I don't know how I can achive that. I think I need the functionalities that DefaultCellEditor gives to its delegate when its constructor arguments is a combo box. But how can I get two different sets of functionalities (JTextField and JComboBox) ?
Please help!
Thanks.

Is it possible to resize individual slides?

Hi!
I'd need some help with my movie:
I'm recording a program that opens multiple windows in
different sizes, some of these are non-resizeable dialog boxes.
What I'd like to do is to always show the current window in
the height of my movie. In the remaining left and right side areas,
I'd like to show a black background.
So basically, the whole thing would look something like this:
Main movie is 800x600 pixels.
I show the application's main window in this size.
Then I launch another window in the application, and instead
of the window's original size (let's say 600x700) I show it resized
to the movie's height.
Is this possible with Captivate?
Thank you!

I don't remember there being a way to resize individual
slides within
Captivate. I usually use PhotoShop or Fireworks for granular
changes like
that.
With no access to PhotoShop or similar, I'd build/scale the
'smaller' slides
in a separate Captivate movie then copy/paste them into the
the 800x600 one.

Make individual cells readonly in js grid of the schedule web part

I need to be able to modify individual cells in the js grid on the schedule web part to make them editable or read only based on certain conditions pertaining to that specific record. I've figured out how to make an entire record in the grid
read only by using delegates, but I'm having trouble getting to the specific cell and making it read only. The code I have for making an entire row read only is below. I'd like to do something along these lines but for cells, not
rows...
PJ.AddGridSatelliteInitializationNotifier
function (satellite) {
satellite = PJ._NotifySatelliteInitComplete.arguments[0];
_myGrid = satellite.GetJsGridControlInstance();
_myGrid.SetDelegate(SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.GetRecordEditMode, CheckToAllowEdit);
function CheckToAllowEdit(record) {
if (record.GetDataValue('TASK_WORK') == 0) {
//i need to find a way to get the cell in question here and then make it ready only return SP.JsGrid.EditMode.ReadOnly;
else {
return SP.JsGrid.EditMode.ReadWrite;

Hi gmhamm0
Were you able to get this done for a specific cell ?

Is it possible to move/resize individual objects in Compound Clipping Path in Illustrator?

Hi,
I have created a Compound Clipping Path in Adobe Illustrator, and wonder if there is a way of moving/resizing individual objects in this path that create the mask? At the moment when I try to change just one object it changes them all.
Essentially I am try to make fine adjustments to the mask.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Nick

Adobe updated masks in CS4, which has made to editing inidividual contents within masks more difficult, especially more complex masks (eg: nested)
When you select a mask now you select the mask and the contents. 5 ways to help you select the elements within the mask:
To get into the contents to edit them use the "Edit Contents" button (the 2nd one in the top left).
Flip down your layers palette triangles, to try and make selections there
Individually select items with the hollow arrow tool or group select tool, and hide them, then unhide to have the sum of the elements selected.
Save back to CS3 and work in CS3
Isolation Mode (though that mode is preferred disabled by many users)
Be careful as if you ever release a mask, this can entirely mess up your layeringorder on occasion, and undo won't help. Save before releasing a mask, sometimes you can undo, sometimes undo will not be abel to reconstruct you layer order.
