I'm trying to find a way to automatically change the dropdown to the next name on the list, wait for a second or so for the results below to change and then export that page as PDF!
I would do it manually but there will be about 100 names on the list!
The data pulls up fine it's just the avoiding all the manual work that would be done each month for the 100 people!
And maybe if there's a way to rename the pdf with the name of the person?
Too Much?

Why not make a script ?
You could first get all the item of your drop down list, then you change the cell value of your drop down list and you pause the script for 1 second.
If you need more help to do it just ask me !
this is not really resolvable in the scope of Google Sheets only. basically what you need is a macro that will run outside of the box and automate whole this process while you take a quick nap. you should look into AutoHotKey which is able to do exactly what you want with delays, auto clicking on buttons to download and stuff like that. there is full documentation on how to build your script, many tutorials and even discord channel if you need pro help.

I have a list of flags classified in three filters (drop-down lists). The problem is that the drop-down list does not work in reading mode, only in editor mode. I just wanted people to see the lists and be able to interact. Is it possible to use this option in some way without having to be in editor mode?

The implementation you are looking for is not possible using view only (Read only) permission on Google Sheets due to the fact that when someone makes changes to the selected cell via the dropdown menu, this will count as an "Edit".
A workaround I could suggest is to set the view to Edit and protect all cells on the sheet with the exception of the cells with dropdown list (Data validation) and set the edit permission access to only yourself. Here's more information on how to protect an entire sheet or range/s of cells:
Protect, hide, and edit sheets
I have this same problem and I'm growing frustrated. How in the world such simple blunder could escape the creators of Google Sheets? Obviously, if someone creates a spreadsheet with drop-downs in a range of cells, and said spreadsheet is to be shared with other users who will be granted limited edit permissions for certain parts of the spreadsheet, it is more than obvious that the creator of the spreadsheet wants his or her users to see and make use of the drop-downs, BUT also wants to make sure that nobody will accidentally delete the data validation contained in the cells (in other words, the drop-down itself). This is so obvious. I don't understand why Google Sheets hasn't yet come up with an extra permission (or a special 'edit' permission) where users can see and interact with a drop-down while in edit, but without the ability of deleting or accidentally changing the cell validation in any way. It would be like, you see it and you can interact, but you can't delete it or change the validation. Simple and nothing but common sense. Come on Google Sheets... let's get to it, please. It shouldn't be too hard to enable such partial edit permissions.
I wonder if it is possible to use Google Forms to gather Sociometry responses.
See this picture as an example:
Clarification:
I want to create many rows per a single responder (see in my picture, there are 5 rows for responder 1, which represent each of the 5 Peers the responder needs to rank) . The second issue, is that the population always changes (responder 1 needs to rank 5 people, while responder 2 needs only 4)
Just create a form and link it to your sheet.
I think you have already done this, but just in case:
create a new form.
link the responses to a spreadsheet.
How to identify the responder
Unless you are in a workspace account and all the responders are also in a workspace account there is no way to identify the responder. The only way that you can do this is to ask the responder in the form for their "Responder ID". The only field that will be populated automatically will be the timestamp.
How to get multiple rows per response
The simple way is to simply get the participants to fill out the response multiple times. The more complex way is to look into Apps Script to construct forms based on a certain criteria, though this sounds like it will probably be complex to do in this way. Maybe you would be interested in building an Apps Script web app with which you could build an html form. That will probably give you more flexibility, though it will be a bit more work to set up.
How to organize your sheet so that all Responder IDs are sorted.
You can do this manually by filtering or sorting the data. Alternatively you can look into Apps Script to do this process automatically every few minutes or hours, depending on what you need it for.
Dremio provides a really nice GUI to download and save data generated after your query run.
However, I want to save my query (instead of query result) in dremio so that I can anytime (in future) refer the query that I wrote. Is there a way to achieve this?
Really appreciate the help!
Although this is an old post, I thought it might be helpful to provide a solution. What you are describing can be solved with a key functionality of Dremio. Instead of going through the difficulty of searching for your old query; I would have suggested creating a VDS (Virtual Data Set) by way of the UI. After a successful run of your query you can save it
Dremio Save Dataset Button as a VDS.
After selecting the save button you will be asked where you wish to save it; you can either save it to your default directory or a named Space you have created previously Dremio VDS Save Dialog.
You can query against this new VDS as though it was an actual table. Any changes made to the VDS will be saved in a history - utilizing the breadcrumb trail on the right side of the UI one can navigate to prior versions.
You can now further accelerate this query through creation of a Dremio Reflection...but that goes beyond the scope of your question ;)
In the left upper corner, you should look for Jobs menu:
i want to count how many issues are in status open, and in verify (our custom flow) per day.
if today 3 issues entered into status open, and 3 entered into status verify i would like to see the result of that field saying 6.
now sure how the script should be done in SCRIPT RUNNER.
thanks guys =)
It would help if you could tell what you want to solve. JIRA allows you to define filters, that will give all the time as result a list of issues found. You can then define / use reports and / or gadgets on dashboards to display the data based on those filters.
So a solution could be:
Define a filter that searches for the issues. Something like project = XYZ AND status in (open, verify).
Save that filter under a name (e.g. "Open and verified").
Use that filter then in a gadget that displays the issues as chart, ...
I am trying to show/load different editor on different rows of a editorgridpanel. Like a textbox on one row combobox/superboxselect on another and it could be any order, random.
The conditions which dictate which editor will be shown reside in the database.
Please tell me if this is possible and if so, how do i go about it.. I have tried pulling the conditions asynchronously which are pulled on a click event for the respective column, but calling it async causes problems. Please advise
Anything is possible, but what you want to do would take a bit of work. The basic idea would be to configure the needed grid editor(s) dynamically and update the columns with the new editors when needed. Now... what would be required to make that actually work I couldn't say offhand without digging into the Ext source -- it would almost definitely require overriding default behavior in the grid and/or column model.
Pulling your conditions asynchronously would (I imagine) be too slow for the interaction of clicking on a row to edit inline. If it takes a second or more from click to configured editors, that would not be acceptable performance. I would try to find a way to send your conditions down along with the other row data if at all possible (they can be in the store's data model on the client without having to be shown in the grid).
Without knowing more about your business requirements, it might be more appropriate to ditch the editable grid and instead go with a dynamically-configured FormPanel tied to the grid. This way the interaction of clicking and then pausing slightly while the form is configured would appear to be more natural. Also, the functionality of rendering a form with a particular configuration is perfectly standard and would require nothing fancy on your end. See this example as a starting point (your form would be dynamic, but maybe the same type of interaction could work?)
