Pop-up Menu in Numbers unwrap and display in next column

I'm creating a row which will contain consecutive pop-up menus. The text is large for the cell (on purpose) but I'm hoping that the text can rollover into the next cell, but it won't do it. I've formatted the cell NOT to wrap, but it is hiding under the next cell. How can I fix it?
Thanks!

Two soluces:
(1) enlarge the column
(2) shorten the items

Is there a keyboard shortcut to open a pop-up menu in Numbers 3?

I have lots of spreadsheets with cells formatted as popup menus. I am accustomed to tabbing from cell to cell, and then tapping the spacebar to open the pop-up menu to select an option. Now it appaers that the only way to open a pop-up menu in Numbers 3 is to take my hand off the keyboard, mouse to the arrow button near the cell, click it, and then select an option. This is ridiculous. Has the shortcut changed, or is it just gone?

Hi ozzwladoman,
This is an old thread. Hitting the spacebar of course worked in Numbers 2, as noted in the thread to which you link.
But it didn't trigger the Pop-Up Menu in the first releases of Numbers 3. The spacebar trigger has been restored quite recently, I think in the April release of Numbers 3.2.
In general Pop-ups are much improved in Numbers 3 over Numbers 2.

Can I have a pop down menu on the left and then text fields directly to the right? I can only get them to be one above the other.

Hi All,
I am building a form and would like to create a pop down menu on the left (and ideally with the options being colour boxes boxes but this does not seem possible), and then have three text separated text lines on the right of the pop down menu for notes related to the pop down choices.
Do you know if this is possible?
Thanks,
Matt

It sounds like you're creating the form in FormsCentral. You have limited options in the FormsCentral designer as far as layout. You can place multiple fields on a line, or one field per line. If you create the design/layout in a program like InDesign or Word, generate a PDF, and add the fields form in Acrobat, you have complete flexibility over the placement of the fields.
The items in a dropdown field are limited to text that are all the same color.

Pop-up Menu with numbers and letters

When using a pop up menu i only have numbers in there e.g. $50. What i want to have in there is 3hrs instead of $50 because that's what will be relevant but
the formula sees 3hrs as $50 so the spreadsheet still works. If i add letters eg $50 = 3hrs I get the following error message
It would be great if its could say 3hrs instead of $50 4hrs instead of $70 5 hrs instead of $80
Hope that all makes sense and someone can help me
Many thanks
Danny Kirk

Hi Danny,
When you put a mixture of numbers and letters into a cell, Numbers treats it as a (text) string. The arithmetic operators ( +, - * and / ) work only with numbers, duration values, and Date & Time values. You are getting an error because a formula using the value placed in the cell by the pop-up menu expects a number, but you have given it a (text) string.
You can supply the operator with the number 50, formatted as currency ( $50 ), or you can provide a duration ( 3h ). If you place the operator into a formula that can use the type of value you choose, you will not get the error message.
There does not appear to be a linear relationship between the number of hours and the number of dollars. Unless you can specify a relations ship that can be expressed mathematically, you will need to use a lookup table to match the hour values in the pop-up's menu to the related dollar value to be returned.
Here's a simple example. Note that "3h" (without the quotes) as used in SGIII's example above is a Duration value, "3hrs" (again without the quotes) will be interpreted by Numbers as a duration, and will be automatically reformatted to display as "3h". The dollar amount has been entered (and displayed) as a number. The Amount column on the Main table has been formatted as Currency, with the default two decimal places.
The formula in each cell of Main::Column A is: =LOOKUP(B,Lookup :: A,Lookup :: B)
(LOOKUP is the name of the function used. "Lookup" is the name of the table from which the information is retrieved.)

Barry

Creating a pie chart based on Pop-up Menu in Numbers

I would like to be able to select a persons name from the Pop-up menu in the F column to chose who has bought an item. I would then like to create a pie chart showing how much money each person has spent on buying the items and have this update automatically. I have no idea how I would go about doing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

1) make sure the pop-up has all the people in the list before you start.
2) eter the data in the table as you have shown then
3) add a new summary table (called "Summary"). Let's assume your existing table is titled "LOUNGE".
Add a new column (G) to your existing table, titled "Lounge":
G2=IF(ISBLANK(F2), "",IF(IFERROR(MATCH(F2, $F$1:F1, 0), 0)=0, MAX($G$1:G1)+1, ""))
select G2 and fill down as needed
Now make a new table (and call it "Summary"):
the first row and first column are headers.
A2=IF(ROW()-1<=MAX(Lounge :: G), OFFSET(Lounge :: $F$2, SMALL(Lounge :: G, ROW()-1)-1, 0, 1, 1), "")
select A2 and fill down as needed
B2=IF(LEN(A2)>0, SUMIF(Lounge :: F, "="&A2, Lounge :: D), "")
select B2 and fill down as needed
now select the cells B2 thu the end of the column then select the pie chart from the charts menu

How to create a pie chart from a pop-up menu in Numbers?

I would like to be able to select a persons name from the Pop-up menu in the E column to chose who has bought an item. I would then like to create a pie chart showing how much money each person has spent on buying the items and have this update automatically. I have no idea how I would go about doing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Costs per person, with "Ali & Baker" as a separate entity (since no provision for separating costs)
The formula is this:
=SUMIFS($Cost, $Who Bought it?, "="&$Who Bought it?, $Bought?, "=TRUE")
The reasoning is:
Sum all Costs, if the following conditions are true:
$Who Bought it?, "="&$Who Bought it?
Group items in the 'Who Bought it? column that match the item in the same row as the formula.
$Bought?, "=TRUE"
Only include items that have actually been bought.
Screenshot
I have highlighted the selected cell in red.
The coloured columns show which ones are relevant to the formula.
To create the totals, I added Footer rows to the table.
You could make a separate table if you prefer.
To create the pie chart, I selected just the costs in the footer rows, and clicked on Charts.

Retrieve data from 2 columns of 2 different tables and display in 1 column

Hi,
Is it possible to retrieve data from 2 different columns of 2 different tables and display it in the same column of a datablock in a form.
For example:
Table A
Col1
1
2
3
Table B
Col1
2
4
5
The column from the datablock in the form should display the following:
1
2
3
2
4
5

You can create a view
select ... from table_a
union
select ... from table_b
and base the block on that.
However, if you want to allow DML on the block it gets more complicated.

Pop-up menu(coustomised) inside graphs and plots

For my application it is to found that it would be more helpful if i can include a coustomised popup menu inside a graph rather than a default one.How can i make use such a facility in my application. please refer a solution
With hopefully
Rathesh

Hi
There are several ways to acheive your objective. In the past i was searching for similar things and i found following code snippets.
go through these codes and decide which one you should use. after that you must ake sure that the context menu apears only when you right click on the correct control (Not very difficult if you are using event structure)
Please let me know if you have any doubts

How can I turn off inherent features of Firefox? (Specifically, it automatically loads and displays the next page, but it will load OVER the current page)

With this version of Firefox, it automatically loads the 'next' page. When I'm reading blogs, when I click to go back, it automatically loads the first page of the blog as the 'next' page I want to go to. However, it will load this page OVER the page I am on, so that I cannot see it. With some blogs, it is so extreme, I cannot use Firefox on them at all. This isn't an add-on or anything, and I cannot find it in the preferences panel. Can I turn it off somehow/is there a way to in Firefox 4?

That is not standard behavior. You may have installed an extension that causes it.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Pop up menu and if function ?

i am try to do set a if function, but it keep getting error
there is a pop up menu in C1, Lunch and Dinner
if C1 = Lunch, Sushi tip out is 4%
If C1 = Dinner, Sushi tip out is 5%
=if(C1="lunch",(B9*0.04),(B9*0.05)
isn't working
can anyone help?
thx

Here is my suggestion:
C9=B9*(0.04+IF(C1="Lunch", 0, 0.01))
I think the only problem you had was that lunch in your formula was spelled "lunch" but was being compared to the value from the pop-up menu spelled "Lunch"... which is different

Behaviors Pop Up Menu

I have been using adding the behavior 'Show Pop Up Menu' to create a drop down list for my link menu. I add all the page links and upload. It works fine on the website. However if I try to change anything the next time I open the page in dreamweaver it has lost all the links.
In the events box I have still got On mouse out - hide menu etc but when I double click on On mouse over - show pop up menu all the links and text have dissapeared in the Contents section of the wizard part.
Can anyone help me with where I am going wrong. As everytime I want to make a change I have to re add all the pages and all the links.
Thanks in advance
Rachel

Thank you, I am using Dreamweaver MX.
I am a novice and have sort of understood that link you gave me! Basically does it mean that the show pop up menu behaviour is rubbish and there is no solution to my problem!?!

Strange Navigation Issues After Using Pop-up Menu

I have a Blu-ray project I'm working on. It's 1920x1080 resolution.
I have a main menu and then seven sub-menus as chapter-selection menus for three different videos.
The Main Menu has four buttons. Button one is a highlights video, button two takes the user to the first of three chapter-selection menus for the first video. Button three takes the user to the first of two chapter-selection menus for the second video and button four takes the user to the first of two chapter-selection menus for the third video. I have transitions from the main menu to each of the three chapter-selection menus and back from any of the seven chapter-selection menus to the main menu.
I also have a pop-up menu with the same four buttons on it as the main menu, except that the top button takes you to the main menu rather than playing the highlights video.
The problem I have is that all of the navagition works fine when moving around the menus, unless you open the pop-up menu during a video and navigate to one of the chapter-selection menus. When you do this, it works. It goes to the first page of the chapter-selection menu for any of the three videos, but if you then go to the main menu from there (each chapter-selection menu has a "back to main menu" button on it), it will play the transition, but then jump you to one of the chapter-selection menus for the video who's chapter-selection menu you were just on.
For example: If I play the highlights video and while it's playing I open the pop-up menu and choose Video 3, it will take me to the first chapter-selection menu for Video 3. If, once that menu comes up, I then scroll down to the "Back to Main Menu" button on that page and choose it, the transition from that menu to the Main Menu will play, but after it finishes, the Blu-ray will jump to the last chapter-selection menu page for Video 3. If I then navigate back to menu page 1 of the chapter-selection menus for Video 3 and choose the exact same "Back to Main Menu" button, the transition will play again and this time the Main Menu will open up.
The links for all of the menu buttons are correct, I've check them numerous times. It just seems that they get screwed up after you've navigated somewhere from the pop-up menu.
Sorry this is so long, but I wanted to try to explain it as best as possible.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hey Shark. I read your explanation of what's happening, but I am not sure why you are having that weird navigation issue. There are a lot of weird anomalies that happen with Encore authored blu-rays, and things that just don't work that really should. For the price, it does the job, but there are limitations.
Last year when I started using it for blu-ray authoring, there were non-stop road blocks and things to overcome.
Check out the documented misery. It gets better at the end .

Switching tables with a pop-up menu??

Hi all, I was wondering if it is possible to switch tables in a cell through a pop-up menu. To be more specific I have a pop-up menu in cell B9 and a table in E9 that works with the B9 pop-up. The table in E9 is A1-B30. I would like to make another pop-up that has 3 items in it that would switch out the table in E9 to reflect what has been chosen in the new pop-up. The info in B9 can stay the same. From playing around I have learned that you can not have the same cells in a table referenced if you have 2 pop-ups on the same sheet, you have to alter your table slightly to make it work. Any chance on this?
Thanks
Peter

I'm getting lost on the switching out part. You need to explain in more detail what you expect to happen. Switching out means nothing in a spreadsheet (at least in standard terminology).
What specifically happens when you change the new pull down?
You wrote "The table in E9 is A1-B30. " Huh? That looks like an equation, not a table. Plus you cannot store a tabel in a cell.
If you intend that the cell E9 has something like =My Table:: a1- My Table ::b30
And you want the MYTable part to change to a different table name, then you can use the address and Index functions to do this. Have address build the cell reference into a string referenceing your pull downs and the index takes that string and uses it like a standard equation.
Something like this:
=index(address(1,1,,,B10))-index(address(2,30,,b10))
This would takt the cell A1 on whatever sheet was selected in B10 drop down and subtract cell B30 from that same sheet.

Fireworks 8 pop up menu problem

My problem involves creating a pop-up menu in Fireworks 8 and
then when Iimport into Dreamweave 8, and then preview using
Firefox, or EI, the box gets cut off and the words hang off the
edge. I have the width and height specifications in Fireworks set
to automatic. When I preview in Firefox or EI from fireworks, it
looks great, so it almost seems it is something in the transition
from Fireworks to Dreamweaver. Anyone deal with this?
