Using a chart as a template

In Excel, I can easily take an existing chart/graph, copy and paste it into the current worksheet or even another worksheet and then open the menu for chart data to easily change the series data. This allowed all the attributes (scale, legend, font, size etc.) to stay intact. In effect, I used the first chart as a template.
As an example, I tracked my running miles for 2007 (plus 2006 and a 5-yr average for comparison) and have bar charts to show miles each month, cumulative, and miles run each year -- and yes I know this is obsessive compulsive. I started a new work sheet for 2008 with a copy and paste of the 2007 data table and adjusted the table to meet upcoming 2008 info.
And, rather than start from scratch with new charts I just want to copy and paste the old ones into the 2008 work sheet and then associate the 2008 charts with the new 2008 data on that work sheet. I can't seem to figure this out after doing searches of the forum and reading the full Numbers user manual. What was so easy to do in Excel appears to be impossible or overly complex in Numbers. Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks ... Mark

Thanks. This is somewhat helpful for my immediate example, but at work, working with a large data set, I have had cause to use the initial graph/chart based on one part of the data and use it as a template for several other sets of data on the same worksheet or even other worksheets. I'm getting the feeling Numbers lacks this feature.

  • Problem: Creating Charts in RTF Templates

    I am using BI Publisher Template Builder for Word. I am using Word 2007 and the patch 9821068 of the Template Builder.
    I am attempting to create a chart in an rtf template using the chart wizard. I can go through the wizard fine and preview my chart and changes using the preview button.
    However, when hit ok a static image of the preview of the chart is inserted into the rtf file and not a bi pub chart “object”. When I right click on the “chart” I do not see the “BI Publisher Chart..” menu item.
    When I create a report on the BI Server using the chart template I created above, the chart is not updated. It is just the static image that was inserted by the Template Builder. I tried various data sources for the report and the chart never changes.
    Anyone have any ideas whats wrong?
    Thanks,
    -Matt

  • I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

    I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect.  This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto.  I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
    kathy

    Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
    You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar.  If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them.  Contact Apple for a refund.  Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • Using Office 2013 group policy template to define Trusted Locations and Template Locations doesn't work

    User Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates
    - Using Office 2013 group policy template to define Trusted Locations and Template Locations doesn't work
    Microsoft Word 2013/Word Options/Security/Trust Center/Trusted Locations
    - Allow Trusted Locations on the network: 
    Enabled 
    - Trusted Location #1: 
    Enabled 
    Path:  //server/sharedfoldername   [Edit:  Path:
    \\server\sharedfoldername]
    Date: June 10, 2013
    Description: Trusted Location
    Allow sub folders: Enabled
    The policy appears to apply to the client correctly by adding the following registry key and values:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\office\15.0\word\security\trusted locations\location1
    allowsubfolders: 1
    date: June 10, 2013
    Description: Trusted Location
    Path:  //server/sharedfoldername  [Edit: Path: 
    \\server\sharedfoldername]
    However, when you open Word Options/Trust Centre/Trust Centre Settings…/Trusted Locations
    There are no trusted locations listed under ‘Policy Locations’
    I have tried setting similar settings for setting the Shared Templates folder location and just like the trusted locations policy, the registry keys are created properly in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies however word doesn’t
    seem to recognize these either.
    This used to work flawlessly using the administrative templates for Word 2007 and 2010. Has anyone been able to get these policies to apply successfully, or know why office doesn’t recognize these settings from the Policies registry
    Key?

    This would have been an easy solution to the issue.  Unfortunately it isn't the problem.  This question was originally posted on another Microsoft site and
    was transferred here and when it was transferred the path's changed from the original post: 
    \\server\sharedfodlername to //server/sharedfoldername.  (I will edit the question to show up as it did in the original post) Not sure how that happened.  This
    is still an issue that I haven't been able to get working correctly.
    As it turns out the 'New from Template' interface Word 2013 has developed is very bulky with large thumbnails and is not very customizable nor practical for an office
    that has a large number of templates.   Because I am unsatisfied with the display and performance of the 'New' template chooser I sought after a solution to change the way word creates a document from a template in another thread: 
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/how-can-you-change-the-display-of-templates-in/d49194b9-a6b4-4768-8502-7d7b50e9dd65 working through this issue with Jay we were able to develop
    some VB script with handles a very large number of templates in a list view and it works much faster than the built-in Word interface.  The above thread is how I've worked around trying to define a shared template location and I am quite happy with it.

  • How do I use fsg:ColHeadLine1 in a template?

    I have created an FSG report and need to publish it with BI Publisher. The report should have columns with month names across the top, but the data may be "Actual" or "Budget".
    The data is contained in fields called <fsg:ColHeadLine1>, <fsg:ColHeadLine2>, etc.
    <fsg:ColHeadLine1></fsg:ColHeadLine1>
    <fsg:ColHeadLine2> Jan </fsg:ColHeadLine2>
    <fsg:ColHeadLine3> Actual </fsg:ColHeadLine3>
    I am not certain how to use this in my rtf template to print the column headers?

    Have you tried checking the Oracle provided template for FSG ("FSG: Basic Template" - RGFSGXPB.rtf)? Works okay and could show you how the fields could be used in a template... (if you could find it from the XMLP Admin - template, you might need the patch for FSGXML)

  • How to use jsp:scriptlet in site template

    hi all,
    I want to use <jsp:scriptlet> in site template, but jdev showed me an error msg when I put <jsp:scriptlet> in site template:
    scriptlet can not work properly with OJSP, I checked the forums, one possible solution is to encapsulate java code in jsp taglib, but I dislike this solution.
    Is there a way to disable OJSP? or any solution to use java code in site template?
    Best regards

    I believe the official word is if you are trying to use java code in a scriptlet in your site template then you are doing something wrong.
    The goal is to keep java code separate from the template and pages. Any logic should go to your supporting serviece objects and all of your front-end work should be accomplished using available or custom tags.
    Can you describe what you are trying to accomplish with this java code in your template?

    You will need to use the Group parameter with the table name.

    You can also set it with javascript for interactive use that would emulate the Template Editor:
