Like this example?
I have tried floating, and negative margins, but it just goes to the next line.
Any tips would be much appreciated.

Looking for some help or to be pointed in the right direction. Been stuck on this for a while and the main issue is I don't even know where to start. I am sure there is a solution but my brain will not see it.
To use as an example I have a table that shows monthly results for multiple different areas:
What I want to do is in the gap along side each number is show an increase, decrease or no change, using up arrow down arrow and square. That I can do using conditional formatting my issue comes with the fact that I also want it to be multiple Colours. So it will take into account increase and decrease and whether they are in target.See below:
Atm I am copying and pasting each month. But having it automated would be amazing. The outcome would hopefully look like this:
I am hoping there is a way that I can do two things compare to the previous month and then check it against my table to see where it sits then display the appropriate symbol.
Thank you in advance for any help or a place to start.
So extremely easy to figure out once I looked at it in a simplistic way.
Firstly, I used: =IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)= 0, "n", IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)=1, "é", IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)=-1, "ê","")))
To compare the current number to the previous number and get a 1, 0 or -1 depending on if it had gone up down or stayed the same, using this it either displays é, n or ê. I then set the font on these cells to Wingdings. so they become up arrow, down arrow and a square.
Then I use conditional formatting to colour it based on the adjacent cells value.
No need for a long, complex formula
=IF(A2>A1,"t",IF(A2<A1,"u","v")) - set the font to Marlett
I've been trying to create my app and something is bugging me very much,
I have images of what I am trying to achieve:
1)
2 )
number 1 shows what I am trying to do, the letters are "squeezed" together making the text appear tighter with a short width even though the letter sizing is big.
number 2 shows my attempt to achieve this, I tried multiple different ways to get that same look but failed for hours, does anyone have any suggestions or know how to make the text look like that in the first picture?
I appreciate any help, thank you!
The only way how to do it AFAIK is to use transform on UILabel, like this:
let widthTransform = 0.8 // Shrink label to 80% of its width
label.layer.transform = CATransform3DMakeScale(widthTransform, 1.0, 1.0);
Hope it helps!
Note* that transform work for about 30% of decrease (even less imo), then it just starts to look very bad. You can also change text spacing, but if you calculate it dynamically, you could end up with negative one and that looks terrible. The easiest way really is then just change of the design :)
Options:
You can decrease character spacing like in this answer
and increase font size.
Having fun with transformation on layer is really awful idea, as later you won't be able to get the height of text etc -> just everything will be working wrong.
You can also just use different font.
I am trying to write a report and stuck with a wide figure. My document type is PRL using revtex4.1 with two columns. I have a wide figure which consists of 8 subfigures. I am trying to place it bottom of a page but it insists to go next page. Here is code for my wide figure:
\begin{figure*}
\centering
\subfloat[s1]{\label{fig:s1}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s1.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s2]{\label{fig:s2}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s2.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s3]{\label{fig:s3}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s3.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s4]{\label{fig:s4}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s4.png}}\\
\subfloat[s5]{\label{fig:s5}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s5.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s6]{\label{fig:s6}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s6.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s7]{\label{fig:s7}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s7.png}}\qquad
\subfloat[s8]{\label{fig:s8}\includegraphics[width=0.20\textwidth]{s8.png}}
\caption{\label{fig:s}Caption}
\end{figure*}
Try also
\begin{figure*}[!hb]
If your figure is too wide, this might help: Centering wide tables or figures.
I don't know whether it will work, but have you tried using placements, ie:
\begin{figure*}[b]
where b stands for bottom?
You could also try using the float package (put this in the preamble, before \begin{document}:
\usepackage{float}
and then using
\begin{figure*}[H]
to specify exactly where you want your figure to be, i.e. put the figure exactly in the position in relation to your text where you want the figure to be placed.
It may be that your figure is just too big and it won't fit there, so you may have to reduce the size of the figures or fiddle with the margins (not recommended, but possible).
Lastly, in 6 days the LaTeX question and answer website will be open to everyone, and you might find it useful.
Is there any possible way to create a slider that will create a range similar to what is done with one handle using min/max, only instead of min/max, starting the range from say 50 (on a scale from 1-100)? I realize this will most likely require modification of the slider or creating a plugin, just wondering if anyone has done this already or knows how to go about it.
I.e. something like this: http://jqueryui.com/demos/slider/rangemin.html
Only, instead of the range going from the min, going off of where the handle is, and allowing the user to slide either left or right of that fixed starting point to create the range. Any help is appreciated, and I'd be glad to clarify what I need if that doesn't make sense! :)
I'm not sure I understand the question. You want something (what?) to be based on the initial position of the slider "thumb"???
I have a two-column paper where space restrictions are very tight.
I just looked at my last version of the manuscript and saw that the upper half contains a figure (as expected), but in the lower half there is a lot of vertical space between paragraphs (enough to squeeze 10 more lines), and that LaTeX probably added it so that in the beginning of the next page a new numbered section will begin at the top of the page.
I know there's a way to adjust this so LaTeX doesn't try so hard, but I'm not sure how. any help? Thanks!
The parameter that controls inter-paragraph spacing is called \parskip(See Paragraph Spacing ). You set it (with "rubber" values) using something like:
\setlength{\parskip}{1cm plus4mm minus3mm}
The defualt value of \parskip is class dependent. The "plus" and "minus" parts tell TeX how much it can adjust the value to improve the layout (that is they make the spacing elastic, thus the "rubber" designation). Reducing (or eliminating) the "plus" part of the rubber might help.
Watch out though, you can cause other layout artifacts if you constrain TeX too much.
Other things to think about:
The widow and club penalties probably apply section headings, and may be affecting TeX's layout choices (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/512967/how-can-one-keep-a-section-from-being-at-the-end-of-a-page-in-latex for a discussion).
You may also want to consider messing with \baselineskip which controls the allowed spacing between lines of text and can also have rubber values.
This is a common problem, and there are probably some fairly sophisticated treatments already prepared on CTAN.
\vfill before the new section worked perfectly for me.
