Hello Brett,

Once you've found the cell you want to edit, bring the mouse to it, then double 
tap with one finger and you can edit it.

Cheers,

Anne

2010-11-28 Thread Brett Campbell
Anne, in regards to your suggestion of using the trackpad to find a cell, this 
does work great.  However, when I locate a desired cell on the trackpad, and 
then use the keyboard to enter data, the focus isn't in the cell I had focused 
on with the trackpad.  Is this your experience?  Are you able to type in the 
cell you located with the trackpad?

Hi,

I believe the Numbers documentation, specifically the user manual is available 
on Apple's site.  It's in .pdf format, so a program like Preview will handle 
this document.

Re: iWork: Numbers specifically

2010-11-28 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Joshua,

Here's what I posted elsewhere on how to find specific information in a cel in 
Numbers. I find the trackpad commander to be very useful for finding a specific 
cell.


First of all, here's how to locate a specific value in a cell:

Numbers

To find specific content,
Turn cursor tracking off;
Press Command-f and enter search term;
Navigate down and interact with scroll area;
Interact with table:
Find desired result;
Bring mouse to VO cursor and do a mouse click (VO-Shift-Space);
Stop interacting with table and scroll area;
Navigate up to next scroll area;
Interact with scroll area, Layout area, and Layout item;
You will be on the selected cell;
Press VO-Shift-T to identify the cell.

Cheers,

Anne

Hi there folks,

I am also rather urgently looking for documentation on Numbers, a lot of my 
work is done currently in excel spreadsheets, though due to my swich that 
won't be a usable option any more. (not sorry about ditching Windows though)

Hello all,
I am looking for some additional documentation on using programs in the 
iWork suite with Voice Over. I would especially like information on using 
Numbers, as that is the program with which I am having the most difficulty.
I have a spreadsheet I created in Excel which I use to keep track of books I 
have read. I have columns for author, title, series, etc. I would like to 
know how to jump to a specific cell, if that is possible. Additionally, I'd 
like to know how to search for text within the spreadsheet, for example, I'd 
like  to be able to search for "Anne Rice", and jump directly to the first 
cell in the spreadsheet which contains that author's name.


Thanks much,
Joshua
