Starting an Applescript by clicking on a cell

Question

Hello
is it possible to start an Applescript (e.g. to create/update iCal-events) by clicking on a cell?
Can I change the appearance of a checkbox that the gray button is invisible and I have the hole cell colored depending its value?
Many thanks in advance
Thomas

Answer 1

As I wrote, I was not sure of what you wanted to achieve.
I will try to plat sooth sayer (what is really boring)
(a) we can't change the status of a checkbox according to a color but as you saw we may change the color according to the status.
(b) we may change the status of a checkbox in a script.
--{code}
--=====
my switchCheckBox(dName, sName, tName, rowNum, colNum)
on switchCheckBox(d, s, t, r, C)
          tell application "Numbers" to tell document d to tell sheet s to tell table t to tell cell r of column C
                    set oldVal to value
  clear
                    set value to (not oldVal)
                    set format to checkbox
          end tell
end switchCheckBox
--=====
--{code}
Next time, ask a question describing exactly what you want to achieve.
A question correctly asked is quite sure to get an accurate answer. In other cases, sometimes chance will be with you, sometimes it won't.
