Is it possible to add captions to tables in Google docs?
I would like to be able to produce an automated list of tables.
For example something like this :
Any idea ?
The Caption Maker Add-on detects figures and tables in a Google Doc, puts numbered captions above or below them and creates lists of figures and tables that can even be updated as the document evolves.
The "Captionizer" Addon seems to be able to do this now, albeit without page numbering. The creator says there is no way to lookup the page number in a google doc to be able to add that feature.

As #Falko Menge suggested in the first response Caption Maker appears to be the best option. I went down for some time, but you can install it without problems.
Caption Maker is available here: https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/caption_maker/226603355104
It seems to be working just fine.
Cheers!

Our Marketing department would like a way to tag and search (perhaps a couple thousand) images.
IT is moving everyone away from file shares, and we have a bunch of free space in SharePoint; so that is looking like a good option, but I am running into some problems.
I have created a Picture Library and uploaded some pictures to test with. I've added a Managed Metadata column for the tags.
The issue is that Marketing would like to be able to bulk tag photos with existing tags, and to have those tags added rather than overwriting the existing tags.
I have been following this tutorial, which seems like it would get me exactly what I need, but I am not able to select a range of records to tag, and I am not getting the "Add these terms to all selected fields" option. Instead of "Quick Edit" I only have "Edit in grid view". Otherwise, the screenshots in the tutorial make it look like I'm on the same version of SharePoint. I'm using SharePoint Online.
The screenshot below is from the tutorial. I do not get the options in the first image, but I get the very same screen as in the second image.

The Google Assistant can currently do this but I'm not sure if there is a way to display a clean table with the Actions on Google library. I would like to reproduce a table similar to what is displayed in the following screenshot:
This doesn't look like any of the components that are available in the library.
Would it be possible to achieve this with a BasicCard and Lists?
The exact UI above is not currently possible using the 3P components. You can use similar widgets like a list or carousel to get close to the UI above, or render the whole thing as an image and return as a card.
For anyone else with the same question, Google recently announced consumer availability of rich responses optimized for Smart Displays. As of 7/26/2018, you can now have responses with table cards.
Good day to you. I am newbie in SharePoint 2013 so please bear with me. I have created around 15 lists in my website each containing same columns but different data (they differ semantically).
I am aware that we can change the default view, edit and display form for each list by creating new form in SharePoint Designer 2013. This seems like a very bad approach as far as the maintenance is concerned. I know my lists are exactly the same so why do I have to create same 15 display forms for each of the lists?
Is there a way to create one custom Display form (may be in a central location, i don't know i am just thinking :P ) for all the lists? Is there a way to tell a list to use a specific display form? Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
If i understand your question correctly, you have 15 lists with same set of columns. You want to change the display/look of the form. All 15 lists should have same look and feel right!! If yes, then why don't you try with some html, javascript solution. Since you are in sharepoint 2013, javascript support for solutions is very good like rest queries. You can use SPServices also.
If you want to to add data to the list whenever you click on the "New Item" link in the list then hijack this link such that it should navigate to your custom form. Pass your list name as query parameter. Whenever user is saving the form, get the list name from the query parameter and save the data to that list.
There could be another ways also to achieve the solution with html and javascript.

Sam I think you can create a custom content type and create custom display form for your content type. Enable the content type in each of your lists so automatically this customized form would be available.
The advantage of this approach is that suppose if you need one more list after some time you can just add this content type and your form would be available into the new list as well.
The approach is explained in the link below.

Just wanted to write the solution which I implemented as it might help others as well. (Thanks Hiren and Mihir for your valuable inputs)
I had 15 lists and I was showing the data to the user using content search web part with custom display template. All of the lists were using the same display template so I made a new page just to show the item details. In the display template I pointed the item URL (i hijacked the list name and the current item id) to my new page and displayed the item. Let me know if anyone is interested in the whole solution or further elaboration is required.
for my job, I'm looking into an idea in which people would use Google Search by Image and use any celebrity photo they find. Google would return the results and then on our end, a there'd be a database of professionals showing how to get that specific look.
I'm assuming this is extremely unlikely to do, based on that users could use ANY photo.
So, is there a way that I could have about 100 or so celebrity photos that Google Image results could compare to and then choose the one that is closest.
Basically:
Drag drop photo of Britney Spears
Google searches with that image
Google's results compare the top images with our 100, and selects the closest match.
User gets to see video of how to get Britney Spears look.
I'm not a programmer, but looking for some API or Search by Image extension that could make this remotely possible for the programmers here at my job. Does something like that (a search by image api) exist? The best I could find was just the support page, which is hardly of any help: http://support.google.com/images/bin/answer.py?hl=en&p=searchbyimagepage&answer=1325808
You can easily search by an existing image by inserting this into your address bar:
https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?site=search&sa=X&image_url=YOUR_IMAGE_URL
Example:
https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?site=search&sa=X&image_url=http://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/stackoverflow/company/img/logos/so/so-icon.png
Sorry to say, but the Google image API is deprecated:
Important: The Google Image Search API has been officially deprecated as of May 26, 2011. It will continue to work as per our deprecation policy, but the number of requests you may make per day may be limited.
Quite sure there are some alternatives (http://www.tineye.com/ and http://mrisa.mage.me.uk)
Update (2013): There is now Google Custom Search which allows image searches.
These answers are quite obsolete, but the question comes up in searches. So, the Google Vision API has the "web detection" feature that does a reverse image search. First 1000 requests per month are free, $3.50/1000 afterwards.
I think Google Web Detection could be a solution for you. Google moved it permanently from Image search
You can do it via www.images.google.com but only from a browser (lets you upload your own image and compares it to similar).
I'm working on doing it from code (not from browser).
I had the same problem and came up with two solutions:
There are a number of APIs that give reverse image search results nowadays. The ones I used are https://reverseimageapi.com and TinEye.com.
As the selected answer mentions, you can easily scrape this information but will almost certainly need rotating proxies to prevent being banned by the search engine. There are plenty of proxy rotation services (Zyte, Oxylabs, ScrapingBee, etc.) to make you life easier.
I ended up going with option 1 due to the upkeep of scraping search engines and elements changing / breaking.
A client is asking to incorporate commenting on their news articles. They're using the Sharepoint news site template for their news publishing, etc. They want a simple commenting system, much like what is available on most blog engines, only they want it at the bottom of each news article.
I just thought I would ask around about an out of the box solution before I go quoting a custom dev solution. Thanks in advance!
I struggled with this a while back and the solution we found was to use a discussion borad list (out of the box) and we created a custom web part that we added to the page layout for news.
We had to do som trickery to add support for anonymous comments, but on the whole it works good and wasen't to much code.
The Community Kit for SharePoint does the whole commenting thing for blogs.
you may have to cut out the commenting part of it to get it to work with your news section however.
The commenting section of the Enhanced Blog Edition of CKS does to approval of comments and spam checking.
I had the same request. I didn't find an existing solution, so I did it by copying from the standard Blog site template, plus custom coding.
From the template: Copy the definition for the blog comments list. Remove the lookup fields, and use a feature to create the list on all publishing sites.
Custom code: Add a feature receiver to the comments feature, and use it to add the lookup fields for page id and title, (using the pages list as destination). This needs to be done in code because you can't configure the destination list for lookup fields in XML, (or at least I don't know how).
Write controls for querying the comments list and adding to it, and place on the page layout.
Simpler approach: Don't use the standard blog comments list, just create your own, where the page reference is just a number and not a lookup field. Pro: Less work. Con: You miss out on the views that come with the standard list.
