Google Sheets: adding different weights to some elements for a graph - google-sheets

I am new to Google Sheets/Excel and I need help solving a problem:
I have a single column with a different element in each cell and need to create a graph to show how many of each are showing.
The problem is that I need to make some elements weigh 2 while others 0.5 before making the graph.
Thank you for answering!
I tried looking for some coding to add weight (I just started today using Google sheets), I tried using AVERAGE.WEIGHTED() but with no result. I did not manage to find anything else.

With zapier & Google Sheets: How do I trigger a new line in the entire spreadsheet?

I'm a bit puzzled. I can't set Zapier to trigger when a new line is added to any sheet on a Google spreadsheet. They force you to choose a specific sheet. Any way around it?
Cheers!
You will need to create a different "Zap" event for each sheet. To my knowledge, there is no way around that.
However, the fact that you think Zapier should be able to have a single Zap be triggered by multiple sheets implies a couple or things:
1.) You're not yet sure what a "Zap" is.
2.) Your data in each separate sheet is very similar. And this causes me to wonder if your overall spreadsheet setup is less than ideal. Many people wind up setting up separate sheets for data collection, whereas in most cases, data collection should only be done in one sheet setup as a standard database, while other sheets show the data in different arrangements (i.e., reports).
You haven't given much detail or provided a link to the spreadsheet. But perhaps this will prompt you to dive into understanding Zapier a bit better and reconsidering the layout of your spreadsheet(s).

Connect Google Sheet into Photoshop

I am hardly finding a way to connect or live-import data from Google Sheet in Photoshop.
There are several way to edit or replace some text layers, or even upload the PSD file into online real time editors, or using Adobe API, but is not exactly what I am looking for or at least I am struggling with.
This is the scenario:
here my Photoshop Artboard
and here my Google Sheet
what I want to do is to connect each layer from artboards' Photoshop with a defined cell/position in Google Sheet in order to get a live update when sorting or updating those cells. The cells and columns could be more than 10.000 in what I want to do.
And perhaps.. the struggling things is that I want to keep this flow in the Adobe/Photoshop application.
Do you have anything that I need to check or have knowledge to clearify this situation?
Many thanks!
Yes, in principle...
Yes, it's possible to load in a .CSV into photoshop and modify layer data, such as text.
Doing it live? This post has more info.
"connect each layer from artboards' Photoshop with a defined
cell/position"
Have you created a Photoshop document with 10,000 layers? You haven't really explained what you will be doing with the Google Sheet, so I can't help you further.
Try a prototype with smaller data sizes first - see if you can get that to work.

Legacy Values Left In Google Sheets

I'm currently using a Google spreadsheet that has many filter functions and many sheets, when one value is changed on one sheet the filter function on the other sheets is changed due to the condition changing and a recalculation occurs.
The bug seems to be that sometimes data from the previous filter function is left in the cells and is not cleared automatically. I have made a quick script that clears cells that have the potential to hold old data, which works but shouldn't be the case.
Has anyone else ever had this issue?
Thanks and I hope this has been explained well enough.

Any way to search for a single word in a list in a single cell? Google Sheets

I'm very new to pretty much everything, I only started using functions in the past couple of months.
I started a new mini project and I need to sum up a bunch of selections from a Google form. The question is are checkboxes and the issue is all the answers are put into the single cell separated by a comma and a space. Each word carries its own value that needs to be summed so I need a way of checking if each answer was checked.
My attempt at doing this was having an extra cell for each possible answer and have it check (using =lookup) if that single cell had answer checked. But unfortunately it said it didn't detect it each time.
The only other solution I could think of is creating an IFS statement for each possible combination of answers but with almost 40 options, that's going to take ages lol
If there's a way to do this using a formula or even creating a script for it then any ideas would be appreciated <3
Maybe find formula can give you some workload release?
=if(IFERROR(FIND(E19,B19),0)>0,"Found","Not Exist")

Adding many custom markers and many custom info windows in Google Maps SDK

I am really just looking for the best way to accomplish this. I've seen the code how to do these individually, but is there a away to do it for say, 100 points? Or do i need to set the custom image and custom info for every point I create?
Also, is there a backend, say SQLite, that i could incorporate the help accomplish more efficiently?
The app I'm building could have 1000's of points, and I REALLY wouldn't want to code everyone of those...but i would!
Thanks
Consider using Google Fusion Tables - they support 100,000 points per layer and 5 layers, for 500,000 points altogether. You access them via an SQL-type language that runs on Google's servers - exactly where your data will be when you upload it and that makes them very fast.
The infowindows are programmable too.
You load your CSV into a Fusion Table (like an Excel spreadsheet) in your Google drive and get a key to that table and you then use the key in your Javascript.
I created the following website with Fusion Tables and I don't have a clue about Javascript! See Skyscan website here. I won't mind if you click View Page Source :-) By the way, if you click on Modern Collections on that page, you are actually turning on/off 25,000 markers and it is almost instantaneous. There is also Marker Clustering available which lets you de-clutter maps with massive numbers of markers and automagically replace them with a single "fatter" marker.
There is a good tutorial here.
