How to reduce the length of title in Blogger? - post

Aloha guys, I'm new here. I really want to reduce the length of the title (reduce the number of words) so that it blends in well with the theme. My website's default view is Grid View, and I want the titles to be changed to "..." when it overflows the limit and the text comes on image. I hope you get what I mean. The text is getting cut away... I seriously need help!

Calculating the amount of text it will take to fill a given container

I am trying to develop a Greek Bible app and want to draw the attributed strings in pages using a UIView which will be swiped left or right like a book. The problem is I cannot for the life of me figure out how much text it will take to fill up each page before I draw it. I need to figure out where to start the text on the next or prev pages so no text is lost. Does anyone know how to do this? I have scoured the internet for clues but to no avail.

using excel to show Increase, Decrease and no change in Multiple colours

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

UILabel cannot render too many words

I am searching for a long time on net. But no use. Please help or try to give some ideas how to achieve this.
Over 6000 Chinese,UILabel is blanked but it has content.In other word UILabel cannot render too manny words.
How can i solove it ?
I try to use core data to render large text only in one view, but it has no use. So I will use a few cells to show those word. And what I need to do is cut the large text in pieces. I think it is better for performance than using only one cell.

google spreadsheets(google excel) Why is my picture being displayed incorrectly in Html View?

Whenever I add a picture to google spreadsheets in editor mode It always appears lower when viewed in Html Mode. Is their a fix for this?
You can instruct Google Spreadsheet engine with ease how you want the images to render by using this syntax:
To retain aspect ratio while increasing / decreasing the cell size:
=IMAGE("URL")
To make the image stretch and fit all edges of the cell:
=IMAGE("URL",2)
To make the image keep its original size:
=IMAGE("URL",3)
To manually set the image size (replace 50,50 with desired dimensions):
=IMAGE("URL",4,50,50)
Now to answer your question more directly. There are several reasons why this can happen. This comes to how Google are actually translating the spreadsheet and rendering it as HTML.
With that said, it is hard to answer your question with the correct answer while not being able to look at the spreadsheet and the output of the html.
Update
Looking at your source:
The problem is that the CSS that is outputted generates topå and left values that makes the image be off by the y axiz.
Here is a method to edit the CSS in Google Spreadsheet if you are familiar with it: http://lifehacker.com/387849/style-your-google-docs-with-css
If you are not familiar with it its probably not much help, but anyway!
If you find this answer helpful please tick accept and up it, i need it :-)

Can sIFR show fonts on a blue line (like writing on notebook paper)?

I encountered a use case where the business would like to display an answer to a question in a handwritten font. So, my initial thought was to use sIFR, but the other part of the use case is they want the handwritten font on blue lines, analogous to writing in a paper notepad or notebook. Can sIFR do a stylized font + notebook lines, or do I need to use another technique? Thank you in advance.
Yes. You can follow the tutorial here to get your blue lines in place: Use custom type with sIFR
However, I would caution against the use of sIFR for whole paragraphs of text. Mike Davidson mentions this in his best practices here.
Raithlin,
Thanks for the link to the article. I read Mike Davidson's page, and I am aware of the problems with replacing too much text. It is something I will warn the business users about.
