I have a spreadsheet in google sheets that has a lot of checkmarks:
I want to create another checkbox filtering system, either at the top, if possible, or on another tab if not. I've tried putting the filter at the top, but as I'm sure you know, it overwrites the data, so no bueno. I also tried this:
with this code:
=FILTER(Movies!A3:P1000,(IF(F2=0,Movies!F4:F1002=0,Movies!F4:F1002=1)))
Which doesn't seem to be doing what I want either? It's showing a random selection, it seems, rather than only the data with the F column being true.
Ideally, you click the checkmarks of the data you want to see, so, if you click the check under Andrew, Addison and Richie, it would only show the rows that had only Andrew, Richie, and Addison's checkmarks. I am fine with making the checkmarks a 0,1,2 list if needed. (Because checkmarks I think are only binary, unless they have an option somewhere to have a third option that I'm unaware of, and marking some data to not be seen if it doesn't have a checkmark would likely require a third option.)
this is what I've got

I'm trying to reset data labels that have been changed manually in google sheets bars chart, and I can't find it in any of the options of the "chart editor". I always get back the last numbers that was inserted manually, and not the original data from the table at question.
I tried to edit it in the "Setup" section, under the "Series" and pick the data range again, but couldn't find a way that works. maybe I'm missing something.
the only way I can think of, of course, is building the same graph again, but this is not smart when I have so many graphs to update
help pls
select the given single data label you want to reset, then right click it and choose "Format data point" > "Revert to default"
haven't found a way to revert multiple at the same time, might need to recreate the chart for that
I'm stuck on this one, and after a number of google searches am now wondering if I'm the only person who's ever tried to do this.
I have a google sheet that users are required to fill in. There is a drop-down selection option at the top, specifying the region the user needs the file for.
However, as the user gets down to the lines for the individual items required, some (a small number) may not be for the region selected at the top.
So what I'm trying to do is add the regions to the individual lines. The default for each line should be the region selected at the top, so this should show as pre-selected. But I want the user to be able to still click on a drop-down arrow and select a different region for a line.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this? Thank you!
Okay,
I'm unsure of your expected outcome, your request is also not very clear -
What I've done is created a list via Data validation, however, if a user enters data into the adjacent column:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OsrQCUt-Urf_Gx8_l9CBZkaUlDc311-S-0csa9GAtCQ/edit?usp=sharing
also it's good practice to share an example of your workbook for others to edit and work on.
let me know if this is what you wanted.
I'm a projectionist at a movie theater, and we have a spreadsheet to track all of our content chronologically. Each show has its own row, complete with all of the details regarding time, theater number, format (digital DCP, Blu-ray, 35mm, etc).
We use this to verify at-a-glance where we're at on managing the content to make sure everything is set up to go. I have conditional formatting set up in every cell so that if it's a Yes or - (meaning not applicable to that show) it turns green, and if it's a No or ? (meaning we haven't gotten that information yet) it turns red.
What I want to know is if it's possible to have another column specifically for an overall "Yes" or "No", based automatically on the contents of the rest of the row (for example, column "D" will be green for yes and red for no). So if a show has all of its criteria met for the rest of the row (E* through Z*), manually filled out to turn green, that one cell (D*) will automatically follow suit. If something is missing from the rest of the row and contains even one red cell (anywhere in E* through Z*), that one cell (D*) will stay red as well.
I realize it probably needs a bit of scripting involved for this, which is not within my realm of experience, but I'm not even sure if it's possible. A lot of the spreadsheet is inputted manually, so one more column with a manual cell isn't the most inconvenient, but if we could set it up to be automatic, that would be incredible.
To branch off my comment above:
Additionally, have the cells by default set to red (using the fill option). If any of the cells are "NO", the condition won't be met, and it'll show as red:
Using OR:
=AND(OR(A1="YES",A1="-"),OR(B1="YES",B1="-"),OR(C1="YES",C1="-"))
I am trying to create a Google Spreadsheet which is able to count the number of items, and also be sustainable when I add new items which won't affect the previous result.
The table at the left is the data, and on the right is the result I am looking for Example:
The two items in RED box are newly added, and the yellow cells show the results expected.
Basically, when there is a item is bigger than ZERO, I want it to be counted. However, I don't want the previous result to change when I drag the function across.
I tried to use the combination of =counta and vlookup, but it is not working properly.
Assuming your red box is around B8:E9 then in H3 copied across and down to suit:
=COUNTIFS(C:C,"<>"&0,$B:$B,$G3)
will give the results you show (other than the highlighting). However, two more days of data and one table may get in the way of the other. You might want to relocate one table above the other so each has room to expand - or move one to another sheet which would then require sheet references to be added to the above formula.
I am not clear what issues you have had with whatever combination of =counta and vlookup you have tried.
I have a spreadsheet in which I want to be able to expand the number of columns using a function rather than using auto-fill because the new cells are getting filled with content based on complex formulas and depending on a lot of things.
In one of these cells I want the content to be something like =SUM(A1:A8)
But if I just do cell.setValue("=SUM(A1:A8)") I get "error: Unknown range name A1", unless I afterwards edit the cell content and press enter, without really having changed its content.
Is there any way of fixing this?
I don't want the calculation to be in the expand-columns-function because I do want the cell-calculation to be updated when one of the referenced cells change.
Is there a way of doing it besides having an onEdit-function listening to changes in the referenced cells and updating the calculations?
Thanks
To set a formula on a cell you should use cell.setFormula not setValue.
I'm not sure I understood you "expand" issue completely, but I think an opened range sum function may suit you better than apps-script. e.g.
=SUM(A:A) or =SUM(A2:A)
