• Help form for numbers

  I need help to create a formula for numbers.

  Value x + y = z value

  where:

  X value is variable

  Value is variable

  Z-value is constant

  Example:

  If I change the value of x, then the value of change so that the value of z remains always the same.

  For example:

  1000 + 34000 = 35000

  If I change the value x to 2000 then value becomes 33000 and z value is 35000

  2000 + 33000 = 35000

  4000 + 31000 = 35000

  etc.

  I appreciate all help in this

  Edward

  I think what is confusing you is maybe you are thinking of z as output, whereas in fact, it's an entry.

  z = x + y

  can be arranged like this:

  entries:

  z, x

  output:

  There

  y = z - x

  

  Select cell B2, and then enter the formula:

  = C2−A2

  Type the z values in cell C2 and the value of X in A2

• I want to create a 2 cells in demand for numbers, the 1st cell is a dropdown menu with items of text, when choosing an item, that it would be represented by a numeric value in the other cell. How can I do?

  I want to create a 2 cells in demand for numbers, the 1st cell is a dropdown menu with items of text, when choosing an item, that it would be represented by a numeric value in the other cell. How can I do?

  You can use vlookup() like this:

  (1) crate a table like this:

  the first line is a heading row

  the first column contains the same list of items in the context menu

  the second column contains the corresponding values

  name of the table 'value '.

  

  In another table (where the pop-up menu), you can use the table of choice of 'Value' like this:

  

  create a drop-down list in cell B1

  Select cell C1 and type (or copy and paste) the formula:

  = VLOOKUP (B1, Value::A:B, 2, 0)

  short hand for this is:

  C1 = VLOOKUP (B1, Value::A:B, 2, 0)

  now change the pop-up to display the value in the change of cell C1

• How can I use applescript for OCR to a bunch of files - with Acrobat XI?

  Hello

  IWant to write an AppleScript (for example) that can be used as a droplet or has a menu to open a folder of pdf files scanned for OCR. And - I want to use Acrobat XI (because it's my version), German version.

  As Acrobat XI is not recordable with applescript editor and I can't find a manual of objects and methods I googled a script that worked with Acrobat 9, but not with Acrobat XI. Here, you define a "Wizard of Action" - Script for example called "OCR this ' and 'click' of the element. But as in Acrobat XI this Item is noch in hand-sbubmenu more than it seems to not work.

  Here is a screenshot:

  

  And it's theapplescrpt, tha opens "Aktionsassistent":

  Click on the menu item "Aktionsassistent" in the menu "Tools" from menu item "Tools" in the menu "Anzeige" of the menu bar item "Anzeige" from the menu bar 1

  BotR, so I cannot reach "OCR it."

  If any body has a suspicion - either by clicking on "OCR this ' or sript an OCR on one open our AppleScript, that would be great.

  Thank you

  AppleScript is documented in the Acrobat SDK kit. But there is no way to do it.

• How to set different fonts for numbers in the titles and tables of contents

  Hello

  I noticed some people to use a different font for the numbers in the titles and tables of contents to get an extra magic. Is it possible to automate the use of fonts in paragraph styles?

  Oh and suggestions on which fonts would be a good thing for numbers?

  Thank you!

  Furthermore, you must doany of this fancy stuff if you use an OpenType font that made OSF glyphs (and if you are not you will need to set the font as part of your style). Just head on to the style definition and enable OSF there OpenType features section.

• AppleScript for the development of Documents of numbers

  Hello!

  I just finished my first 'Real' Applescript to do something that I thought was pretty simple.

  It took me 5 days to figure it out!

  In any case, I regularly create new documents of numbers whenever I make a deposit in cash for the accountant of campus

  (I am a teacher/middle school band Director and am constantly receive payments from children for t-shirts, uniform band, travel expenses, etc.)

  I tried for years to find a way to compile all deposit slips in a single document to keep track of who paid for what during the school year and I always ended up having to manually copy and paste the data of each doc in the main list (last year I had more than one hundred different deposits slip files in a folder on my desktop).

  Long story short, I discovered Automator and Applescript a couple weeks ago and have been playing with them. Who would have thought that these tools had been all the time on my mac!

  If someone (much more qualified than me) could take a look at the code, I am come with below to see if she is healthy, of if there is a more effective way to achieve this, I very much appreciate it!

  The code works for now, but if there is something or any weakness that could break it in a future update, I would like to know about it.

  CODE BELOW:

  -------------------------------------------------

  -It is my attempt to create an AppleScript to copy data from several numbers documents and compiling a database for use in a single master Document numbers.

  -The way it's Setup now, whenever a new document data is added to the source folder, I double click on an icon on the desktop that runs this script.

  -Place for documents to go after they are added to the main list.

  
  

  game dittos to (Choose file with prompt "choose a numbers Document to copy in the type list." as text by default location sourceFolder)

  -The script will ask me to select a file out of the source folder to copy

  
  

  say application "Numbers".

  activate

  the value doc to Open dittos

  say table 1 of the sheet active of the doc

  the value thisRangeName to '03:37.

  Thanks for the help and advice of an Applescript Newbie!

  First of all, if the script works for you, then it's good enough

  Even experienced/veteran AppleScripters can spend a lot of time to 'perfect' scripts, so it is important to balance the how long it will take to arrive at a solution that is "perfect".

  If you're looking for pointers that might work "better", here are a few thoughts.

  First of all, your script depends on literally copy and paste the data from the source file for the master file. I'm never a fan of this approach. All works (clearly), it is prone to error and changes the State of the system - not sure if what was in the Clipboard the script at startup has been sought, and the operator (if it wasn't you) do not doubt that the execution of the script would change the contents of the Clipboard. In general, I think it's better to reference the data directly ("set data2Copy to (get the ranks 1 to 37 of table 1...)"), although it works for now.

  In addition, your script is depends somewhat on the specifics of the source and master files. There is no error checking that the source data is valid before you copy it.

  On the same topic, you have a significant amount of code to check if the column 5 is empty. I would consider doing this check at the front - in other words only copies the data you need, rather than copy more and must clean up afterwards. Once again, the details of this function a bit on the data.

  Finally, for the moment, the script runs on a single file at a time - opens the source file, opens the master file, copies the data, close the files and closes way unexpected numbers.

  What happens if there are multiple source files to process? You can consider a loop through the files, the copied data and closing/smoke right at the end. That would save some time.

• Using Applescript for formatting lines in figures

  I have a Numbers spreadsheet where I want to shade the lines according to the (odd) values in my second column (B).

  I've been everywhere in the forum, but I can't seem to find a script that is, and I can't change one and make it work.

  Anyone with a few kind words and a model? :-)

  Hi jsteinaa,

  Here's a method that does not require an Applescript.

  Add another column, C. You can hide this column later.

  

  Formula in C2 (fill down)

  = IF (ISEVEN (B2) ", B2," "")

  If a value of B is the same, that the cell equal to the B cell c, otherwise insert "" (NULL).

  Conditional highlighting b

  

  Variation: use the ISODD C function.

  Please call with questions.

  Kind regards

• AppleScript for recover data from Spotlight

  Here's a challenge for you all...

  Projector in El Capitan can provide much more information, i.e. weather, sports scores and so on. Now, I already have an AppleScript script that allows the user to enter something, and then it will call Spotlight and stick to what they entered. I want to be able to do is read the data Spotlight returned. For example, if the user types in "weather" and Spotlight said she's currently 61 °, I want to be able to transmit the data back in the script. How this could be achieved? If there is no conventional way you know, perhaps via some GUI scripts?

  Thank you.

• Months of searching for numbers on the sheet

  Hello all and thanks in advance.

  I have tabs at the top. DATA (sheet 1), JAN (sheet 2), FEB (record 3), etc. until the end of the year.

  Data sheet will be the months on the left now I want care to go to the form to correct month and takes the total of the column relative to the other leaves and place in the correct cell line. (I've been copy paste, but I know there is an easier way to do this, so I turn to the people who know the numbers unlike my lack of knowledge.)

  On the leaves of the month, I would also like to highlight the line that are sat and Sun.

  Thanks again everyone for their help.

  Rich

  In the material master

  

  Hi, NN,.

  You will have a Table for each month. Each Table must have a different name. Your summary table lists more than 12 months, then I would say the table name from each month is named with the name of the month AND the year.

  The monthly tables may appear on separate sheets, or the same sheet. The key, as far as the formulae are concerned, is that each Table can be identified by its name.

  The following example includes only the table for April 2016, named "APR 2016", I assumed that the total line will be row 33 on each table of data collection, but wrote the formula to allow the placement of the line totals in other places. The lines for most of the actual days have been hidden and has not been designated, as these labels have no role in the operation of the formula.

  

  The TOTALS is defined as a footer line. The formula, in the columns showing a value is SUM (a) where 'a' is the letter of the column to be added. (The two values of zero have been entered manually for example).

  The table has a unique formula, entered in cell B3 and filled with right and until the last line for which there is a Table whose name corresponds to the label in column A. For example, the formula has been met only 3 online.

  B3: = INDEX (APRIL 2016: $A$ 1: $ 33, MATCH $N ("TOTALS", APRIL 2016: $A, 0), GAME ($ 1 B, APRIL 2016: $1: $1.0),)

  Syntax:

  INSTRUCTION (range,-l'index of the line, column-index, index of the surface)

  range: all of the cells in the source table

  the index of the line: the number of the start line to get the value. This is provided by the first statement of the GAME.

  the index of the column: the number of the column from which to get the value. This is provided by the second statement to MATCH.

  the index of the surface: omis. By default, 1. There is only 1 area of application of this INDEX, all of the source table.

  MATCH (image search-search for, - where - method)

  EQUIV function returns the position in the list of the search for value.

  First case:

  search for: TOTALS text

  search - where: column A of table source

  method): 0 means finding the exact value.

  Second case:

  search for: the text contained in the cell of line 1 of the specified column. That form is completed on the right, the increments of the column by one for each stage.

  search - where: line 1 of table source

  method): 0 means finding the exact value.

  The formula should be changed for each new line. Three references to "APR 2016" should be changed to match the name of the table to collect this row grand totals. Once edited in column A, the formula can be filled right and automatically adapts to his new position.

  Note: The duration value in column F of the table of the month wouldn't transfer and keep the same formula in column C of the summary table. Any attempt to restore the format to match your example resulted in a triangle of error.

  Kind regards

• Use applescript for Python Shell command

  Is there a way where I can make applescript to view the output of the python script and also accepts input so that it can pass it to the python script? My script contains several entry so is it possible possible to do? For more than once in entry and exit every time?

  You can certainly create handlers AppleScript (functions) that use Python HERE documents, with AppleScript variable passed into Python as command-line arguments, or returned to AppleScript. AppleScript's display of limited capacity, but does not preclude a cocoa of coding, or TCL GUI for the display format most of in the Python code.

  You can also write a Python application that can invoke AppleScript, pass the values on the command line values and return to Python AppleScript. This can be done through a presentation of subprocess or directly through NSAppleScript.

  This script worked perfectly for many years on Mail 2 for 10.4 Tiger and 4 mail for Snow Leopard 10.6, exactly as shown above. I'm fighting to move to a new Mac with a new version of OS X I have two: an iMac running OS 10.7.5 Lion with Mail 5.3 and a MacBook Pro OS 10.10.5 Yosemite with Mail 8.2. These two systems are unable to exactly in the same way, with the same error:

  "error" Mail was an error: cannot make the source of the message id box 2182618 mailbox \"INBOX/Junk Mail\ ' \"SS IMAP\ account ' type rich text. ' number-1700 of the source of the message id box 2182618 mailbox account "SS IMAP' rich text ' box of RECEPTION/Junk Mail"

  This happens with the word "content" in the line of script "set content to thisMessage's source" highlighted.

  I studied the AppleScript dictionaries for mail in these different versions of the OS (10.6, 10.7 and 10.4, 10.10):

  For Mail 2 on Tiger, source and content are the two 'string. ' String is not defined.

  For Mail 4 in snow, source and content are the two "text". Text is defined as "Rich (style) text.

  Mail 5 in Lion and 8 Mail in Yosemite, source is 'text' and the content is 'Rich text', defined as 'Rich (style) text.

  "Aha!" I thought: ' I need to force the Mail to use plain text to the message form! After days and hours learning (I don't know AppleScript) and experimentation, I finally got the following change to the compilation and tried to run (my changes/additions in bold):

  Tell application "Mail".

  Set theMessages to the selection

  Repeat with thisMessage in theMessages

  Set newMessage make new message coming out at the end of outgoing messages

  Tell application "system events" to indicate the process of "Mail".

  frontmost set to true

  Click on the menu "make Plain Text" of the bar menu 1 to menu bar "Format" menu 1 item

  tell the end

  tell newMessage

  the visible value to true (* comment on the line to stop windows 'flashes' *)

  define the content of the source of thisMessage

  subject to the value "Fwd:"& thisMessage's subject.

  brand new to recipient with properties {address: theSpamAuthority}

  tell the end

  Send newMessage

  set read status of thisMessage to true

  together been forwarded of thisMessage to true

  status of thisMessage spam set to true

  end repeat

  tell the end

  Note that I voluntarily deleted the emitting part and setting of the script at the end (I want to ensure that any changes properly format the message before it shuts down in fact).

  Result: same error at the same place.

  I checked that the incomplete outgoing e-mail form indeed is set to plain text.

  Here's how things are supposed to work:

  (1) user manually selects one or more spam messages in Mail, and then calls the script.

  (2) for each selected message, the Mail + script creates a new outgoing email message. The body of the message is the raw source of the message spam (inbound). The subject is set to Fwd: + the original subject line. To: address is as shown in the script. Send (from :) address is the user's default in mail.)

  (3) each message individually, marked as read, marked as forwarded, marked as spam.

  (Note: I tried to paste in formatted AppleScript, but this web form mixed and makes it unreadable.)

  I don't know what else to do. I need to this feature, every day! The lack of it crashes me to move to a new version of the OS.

  Hoping someone has a solution,

• search for numbers in a large chain

  Hi all how I can search numbers in a big chain, for example the string is

  "23 (233).

  24 (456)

  25 (253)

  I ".

  23,24,25 are difficult numbers, but others are variable numbers that I need them and I mean chain is more please show her block really, I confused with string functions!

  It's the kind of problem that can be solved using regular expressions. The ^ anchor the match to the beginning of a line, so if you enter 51 in control of the resulting regular expression search string will be ^ 51\ ((\d+)------). The regex function will look like a line beginning with 51 [951 is therefore not a match], followed (, l ' Interior (\d+) parameter most is a capturing group that contains one or more numeric characters [must extend the bottom of the function regex match to get the output of the capturing group] and finally the closing). The opening and closing parentheses must be preceded by the escape character-because they are special characters.

  In this case, I assumed that the string is composed of several lines.
