I want to make an AE template for others to use, in which I want the text to always be within the specified range. If the text content increases, it will automatically shrink.

I have been facing a strange issue lately. So, the user has the ability to change value of the cell from the userform window, however, after apply changes somehow the values go from the right to the left (only ones with decimals) and that creates a problem when the data is read by another software (Matlab) it can not be read. I have tried to reformat it as number or general to see what happens but nothing. The only thing that changes it back to the right is (find & Replace "," with ","). Anyone knows why this happens? Any solutions ? (see picture for demonstration)
Maybe look in the code for the user form. As I understand it the edit box treats everything as a string. So when the number goes initially from the sheet to the form it is converted into a string. Hence when it is written back, the sheet thinks it’s a string. In the code underlying the form you need to intervene and turn the string back to a number (eg using CDbl() ). If you enter a value (or change) a number directly on the sheet, Excel will try and be ‘helpful’ and convert things that look like numbers into numbers (it does the same with dates). – Solution by #DS_London
I think the image attached describes better than I can in words the functionality I am trying to locate within excel.
Is there a way to auto group based on the contents within the columns as shown? This is achievable for the example shown, but when there are up to say 30 Groups and many sub group types, I am wondering whether excel can auto-detect and work its way through the list, grouping as shown as it goes.
You can get a similar result using conditional formatting. select the whole table and create a new conditional format rule and choose formula and enter =A1=A2 set the format font to white (I've used very light grey to show that the data is still there)
To get the borders, do the same again and this time enter the formula =A1<>A2 and make the top border black.
It's not exactly the same as yours but it's close.
I would like to colour all occurrences of a specific block in Simulink. For instance, I want all Scopes to be yellow. How can I achieve this.
Is there a way to select all specific blocks at once?
When entering a new specific block, is there a way to automatically set its colour?
I recommend to create a library and have the blocks with the colours already set in it.
Alternatively you can use find_all to identify all blocks and set_param(blockname,'BackgroundColor','green') to change the coluor.
I'm interested in making an Excel cell formatting macro that allows me to scroll through different options (different font/cell colors, different border types, etc.). I know that I could accomplish this by checking conditions -- if I'm changing font colors, then I can just "scroll" by using conditional logic (if color1, then change to color2; if color2, then change to color 3; etc.). I was wondering if there might be a more elegant way to accomplish this -- specifically, is there a way to store custom attributes for cells in VBA?
For example, if I set cell B3 to a certain border style (thin line for top,left,right but double line for bottom), is there a way to create and set a VBA attribute of Cell.CustomBorderStyle = 1? Otherwise, I believe I would have to build logic into my macro for the precise formatting (if top,left,right = thin and bottom = double then change to second style, etc.). I'm not sure if creating a custom class in VBA would allow me to do this, or if there's any way at all to do this.
Please let me know if my question is unclear -- thanks!
if you only want the cell attribute to be available within this VBA session then I would use a collection or dictionary with a key of the cell address (Sheet_Row_Column) to store the attribute(s).
If you want to persist this information within an Excel workbook then it would probably be best done using custom xml.
I have developed a list in SharePoint. While entering new item in it, like name, if I keep on typing it gets spread over a line making the width of cloumn spread over page. I want to limit the width of site column so as the column's value spreads over multiple lines instead of spreading over one. How can I do this setting?
This is not a setting you can configure in SharePoint. You will need to write some custom code using css and possibly javascript that will set the width of the column. You can make a change like this in SharePoint Designer.
You must use min-width (CSS) in your block.
You have to create custom XSLT for this. There you have loop all the column and need to specify the overflow:auto, hidden,.. CSS property. So it automatically get effect based on your internal name of the field.
So whereever you have the field it automatically get affected. If it for one single view you can use JavaScript to achieve this but this is not right way to do.
The data you are entering can be displayed in many ways. Today in a table format, tomorrow in a dropdown etc. You should distinguish between:
limiting the amount of data that can be entered in a site column (can be done in SharePoint alone, when you design your list)
limiting the wrapping of the words in a table cell today or trimming the values in a dropdown tomorrow (can be done using HTML/CSS "nowrap" if you display the list values in a browser app, or differently if you show the values in a WinForms app)
