I have a vtk file which contains density values for each cell. By default, paraview displays all the density range. However, I would like to view density data only within a particular range and its corresponding cells only.
Is it possible to view only the cells, which fall in the particular range?
I have found the way:
view-> selection inspector
In the selection inspector,
current object: (select the grid you want to visualize)
selection Type: Threshold
Field Type: CELL
scalars: (select the cell scalar to visualize, in my case: density)
Add Thresholds -> Lower: (set your value) Upper: (set your value)
Display style->Cell Label tab
Visible;
Label Mode: (select the cell scalar to visualize, in my case: density)
Now you are done!
You can also directly apply the "Threshold" filter to remove cells from the dataset that are beyond your selected range and just visualize the remaining ones.

Is it possible to create a dynamic Excel Pivot Chart title that includes "(Top n)" where n = the value filter row limit selected by the user? I know the chart title can be set to the contents of a cell but am unsure how to go about determining the Top n limit selected by the user or how to add that in the cell formula. If this is possible, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Max didn't work as I need the row count (n) after the user applies a value filter of Top n. However, your response steered me in the right direction and I was able to accomplish what I was looking for with ="(Top "&SUBTOTAL(103, A2:A140) &")" . Supposedly, SUBTOTAL with the first parameter set to 103 will perform a COUNTA function but ignore hidden rows. Reference: https://exceljet.net/excel-functions/excel-subtotal-function
So use max() on the range of cells and concatenate - I like the & (less typing):
=(Top &MAX(A21:A24)&")"
Just for those who don't know how top get the cell result into the title:
Select the chart title box (so it has blue corners
In the formula bar type "=" and select the cell with the contents and enter.
I have a line chart in excel with data already set; I need to add a vertical line that moves according to the X values (month dates). For example for this month the line will move on the X value of "Jul-20"
Below I have attached the screenshot of the chart and the chart data. I have never had my hands on excel chart up until now and this chart has not been made by myself. Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE 1
Thanks to #Steven Pomponio
when I try to add the new series for the vertical line, I do not have the "Y" values; see screenshot
UPDATE 2
added a new data source with values as 01/072020 and /01/07/2020 in cells J182 and K182; now I see a black dot on the left between the £10.0m and £ 20.0m Y values. If I change the verttical line data source chart type to be "Scatter with straight lines" then I do not even see the point.
If I change teh entire chart to be of Scatter with straight lines then I do see the Series Y Values but the whole chart change design and I do not want to do this.
UPDATE 3
Thanks to #Steven Pomponio I did it
Choose two cells in which you will have your target x value where the vertical line will appear, for this example I'll be using cells (E1) and (E2). Within cell (E1) you'll want to type in the formula =TODAY()-DAY(TODAY())+1 in order to get the first date of the current month. Cell (E2) can just be =E1.
In two cells, preferably next to them you will need to enter in the minimum and maximum bounds of one of your axes (Since you are already using a dual axes). It is important that these numbers are the same as what you set for the axis min & max bounds as this allows for you the line to properly span across the entire chart. Don't leave them on Auto.
Next, right click on your chart and click Select Data -> Add -> and add in the two dates (cells (E1) and (E2)) into the Series X Values, and the min and max bounds into the Series Y Values.
The final step is to make sure that the Chart type for this newly added series is selected as Scatter with Straight Lines and plotted on whichever axis you set the bounds equal to.
We are looking at doing some data import. There is a very large complex sheet which has some items grouped together using borders around cells in one column. The only indication that the items are grouped is the fact the group is surrounded by a border. Items ungrouped have no left and right border on the cell (may have top and bottom border as items above and below maybe grouped). As an initial exercise we want to add a column that displays true if an item is grouped. So if there is a border display a value like one. Does anyone know if this possible?
Use this custom VBA function:
Public Function GetBorder(ByVal Rng As Range, Idx As Integer) As Boolean
GetBorder = Rng.Borders(Idx).LineStyle <> xlNone
End Function
It takes two arguments: cell and index of border (7=left, 8=bottom, 9=top, 10=right). Returns TRUE or FALSE.
Now if you want to get info about bottom border of cell A1 you should:
=GetBorder(A1,8)
I have some VBA and batch Scripts that read the Mac Address Table out of some switches and import it into Excel to format it.
But the text is too long for the default cell width.
Is it possible to change the displayed cell width?
(When saying displayed cell width I mean: this)
Use this:
Range("A1").ColumnWidth = ...
The units for this value are as following:
One unit of column width is equal to the width of one character in the Normal style. For proportional fonts, the width of the character 0 (zero) is used.
For example, the column width for freshly opened Excel file with default styles is 8.43 which is equal to 64 pixels.
...or this to autofit width:
Range("A1").EntireColumn.AutoFit
Another method would be:
.Columns("A").ColumnWidth = 20 (or whatever value you need)
I didn't compare it speedwise but why my guess would be that it's more efficient to just use Columns() instead of Range().

I'm trying to utilize the Range Names feature in Excel to create a chart that will automatically update once new data is appended. I've successfully done this with two variables (i.e. Date and Temperature) but I'm unable to get it working with 3 or more variables.
Within a tab titled, 'Dynamic', I have a Date (value in A1) column with these values: 4/1/2013, 4/2/2013, 4/3/2013, 4/4/2013, 4/5/2013 (Value in A6).
I also have a Temperature (value in B1) column with these values: 55, 60, 62, 65, 61 (Value in B6).
Within the Name Manager (within Formulas tab) I created a Named Range with a Name of "Date" and a Refers to value of:
=OFFSET(Dynamic!$A$2,0,0,COUNTA(Dynamic!$A:$A)-1)
I created another Named Range with a Name of "Temperatues" and a Refers to value of:
=OFFSET(Dynamic!$B$2,0,0,COUNTA(Dynamic!$B:$B)-1)
I then selected the range A1:B6 and inserted a Clustered Column chart. Clicking on one of the bars yields this formula:
=SERIES(Dynamic!$B$1,Dynamic!$A$2:$A$6,Dynamic!$B$2:$B$6,1)
If I insert my Named Ranges in the above formula like so:
=SERIES(Dynamic!$B$1,Dynamic!Date,Dynamic!Temperatures,1)
and it will allow me to add a new row of data and it automatically updates the chart.
This is great! But when I attempt to add another variable I can't get it to work. I add Rainfall (value in C1) to the spreadsheet with these values: 1, 2, 0.5, 0, 1. I create a Name Range with a Name of "Rainfall" and a Refers to value of:
=OFFSET(Dynamic!$C$2,0,0,COUNTA(Dynamic!$C:$C)-1)
I then select A1:C6, insert a Clustered Column chart. Clicking on one of the Temperature bars I change the formula to:
=SERIES(Dynamic!$B$1,Dynamic!Date,Dynamic!Temperatures,1)
When I attempt to change the formula for the Rainfall bars I try this:
=SERIES(Dynamic!$C$1,Dynamic!Date,Dynamic!Rainfall,2)
but when I hit enter it won't do anything. So, I'm left with a chart that won't update automatically.
Assuming I could get this to work, I'd like to move the Rainfall data onto a secondary axis and change the chart type to a line chart (so that it all fits nicely onto the same chart area).
Can you tell me what I need to do to get this example to work? Thank you!
I couldn't get this to work either, using the SERIES formula. Then again, I suppose it is considered an undocumented feature.
However, if you edit using the Select Data dialog then it works.
