VBA / How To Spin Chart Very Fast Then Slow And Stop
Nov 20, 2013
I want to make a prize wheel (aka Wheel of fortune) I try to follow this code >> wheel of fortune but I stuck at the animation in order to make it look like the real prize wheel. as far as I google, this youtube (Simple Excel Pie Chart turned into AMAZING Electronic Prize Wheel of Fortune! - YouTube) demonstrate the result that I really want my chart would be.
how to make the prize wheel spin very fast at first and slower later until stop?
We have created a macro that basically looks for rows that contain an "H" and hides the row if it does.
Users can add new rows throughtout the year to this spreadsheet. and based on certain criteria, an H or U will be placed in a hidden column which the macro looks at and hides any row it finds an H.
The user has to click on the button that has the macro assigned to it once they have finished working on the spreadsheet.
The problem we're finding is that for users who insert/delete rows, once they click the button it takes up to 15 seconds to run through macro (which is ok). However, users who haven't added or deleted any rows and who click the button, they have to wait upto 5 minutes (which isn't ok) for the macro ro run.
We can't figure out why the macro takes longer to run when no changes have been made?
I have created a code for printing specific charts on a "constant" page.
First of all the page is the same every time. It contains the same graph's (although with various data each time) and the same placement.
So when i make the page with graphs i also add a button with an attached macro.
This macro then shows an Userform where the user can decide which graph he would like to printout. I wan't specific headers and footers on the page, so the only thing i could make work is by copying the chart, and then place it in a new Chartsheet, then setting the header and footer and printing it out in the end. The code looks as follows:
Application. ScreenUpdating = False On Error Resume Next total = bruger + Varm + aar + varig 'the sub is called from another sub, so these are giving a value on beforehand If bruger = 1 Then 'bruge pagesetup uden for chart object for at lave header og footer Worksheets(sag).ChartObjects(1).Copy Worksheets(sag).Paste End If
Now everything works just fine, except it is really long time about doing this.
By testing i found out that the copying a chart takes alot of time in vba-code? Why is that? If i do it manually I don't have to wait for anything.
This is just a question of optimizing the code... Because i can't understand why it takes so long time with the VBA code!
I want to do almost exactly this, but when I assign null using "", and plot the result on a graph, the graph thinks that cell is populated with a 0. Let me try to be a bit clearer. I have a range of dates in Col A, and percentages in B and C, but my last 3 dates in Col A have empty cells in B. Cols B and C are separate series. The line graph is (correctly) plotting series C, and series B, whose line stops where there is no more data.
What I need to do now is replace those empty cells with a formula like the one above. Ie, IF(ISBLANK(x1),<null>, <formula>), but using IF(ISBLANK(x1),"", <formula>) doesn't make the line on my graph stop.
i am creaing a chart in excell but i have a problem. i would like to have a chart like this one http://shrani.si/?screenshotow31.jpg. but when i create my chart it looks like this http://shrani.si/?screenshotow2t.jpg. first chart is created with some macro so i dont know how is it working but i think the problem is in blank cells because if cell is blank the chart line will go to 0 but i dont whant that :s
my questions below are more oriented to hows & whys, as opposed to asking for a fast solution to a pressing problem.
I'm just reviewing the basics of SumProduct to be sure that I understand what I'm really doing when I deploy the function. So, I have the following formula:
I'm working on an Excel spreadsheet and basicly i'm inserting manually data from a lot of paper forms.
It isn't a dificult thing, but is boring, because I have to do more than 2000 forms per week! I want to accelerate, and how to do that
Problem: "Address"! The Excel page that i'm working has a column to feel with Addresses manually, but I have a table with all correct Address names from the city that I'm working about in other page.
What I would like is when start typing some keyword from the Address cell, it could show me all the choises of input (based on the correct Address Table)
Excel, by default, show, by exact order, all the choises, already typed on the same collumn. I don't want that.
- imagine I have the Table 1 (representing the table with all city adresses) with a collumn called 'Address' with:
A1 - Street ZXY A2 - Avenue QWE A3 - Street QWE A4 - Avenue ZXY
when typing on another Table, if I write something like “QWE” show me the A2 and A3 to choose wich I'm going to feel, and the same to “ZXY”, showing the A1 and A4. Other thing, if I write “QWE street” may show A3 also. Keyword is what i'm talking about
Im looking for a macro that hide empty rows. I found some simple macro but that are long to execute. While looking for a faster code, I found two codes that work pretty fast. But as I don't understand VBA I am not able to adjust them to my situation.
First macro: I am able to specify my range (B6:B77), but the macro applies to blank cells and I need to apply to "" cells.
[Code] .....
Second macro: very fast as well. Here, it applies to "" cells, but I am unable to specify a range. So the rows 1 to 4, which are empty, are hidden but should not.
To monitor fast moving decimal values in the even numbered cells( e.g. F2 to F 30 ) of a column, ignoring blank cells, and if two of cells values simultaneously fall below a certain value e.g. 2.04 True if not False.
I'm using a form to display records based on a value YSNumber using this
Set tbl = Sheet1.Range("A:A") Set fnd = tbl.Find(What:=cbo_YSNumber.Value, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:= _ xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _ , SearchFormat:=False) fnd.Activate Then I display reccord data by populating labels like this:
Label_RequestInstructionID.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3) Label_SchemeTitle.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4) Label_PMO.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 5) I'd like to use the spin button to allow the user to cycle up or down the records.
I don't know much about VBA, but I am sort of working my way through. I have inserted a spin button in an excel sheet and assigned it to the following code in a module:
Sub SpinbuttonD4() Range("D4").Value = Range("D4").Value + 0.01 End Sub
So, now when I click the spin button (either the up arrow or the down arrow), the value in D4 increases by 0.01.
What I actually want to do, however, is for the value in D4 to increase by 0.01 when I click the up arrow, and decrease by 0.01 when I click the down arrow.
can i link a spin button to a toggle button such that when i click my togglebutton On then the Spin Button causes the Value in a cell to increment from 0.1.2.3.4.5 and when i click the toggle button off then value decrements from 5.4.3.2.1.0
I'm creating a spreadsheet to collect survey data and how I have it set up is this:
Question 1 is a simple yes/no/maybe question - it uses an ActiveX spin button that the user presses up/down to increase/decrease the total. It looks like this:
Private Sub Yes_SpinUp() With Range("C3") .Value = WorksheetFunction.Min(15000, .Value + 1) End With End Sub
Private Sub Yes_SpinDown() With Range("C3") .Value = WorksheetFunction.Max(0, .Value - 1) End With End Sub
Cell C3 is where I keep track of how many people answered yes
The button is called "yes" under the button properties
So basically, I have one privatesub for spinning the value up and down. It works fine and is easily copy-paste-able for other answers, it just takes up a lot of space. I'm wondering if there's code I can write to handle the up/down in one sub. If not, i'll stick with what I have.
The issue I'm having is with the ActiveX Spin Button (in 2007, formerly in the Control toolbox in 2003). I need the Spin Button to call a certain macro whenever it is clicked up or down. I know how to do this with one spin button, the problem is that the workbook I'm creating could potentially have dozens (or even hundreds) of these spin buttons that all need to call the same macro. It doesn't seem feasible to have to create separate Change event functions for each of these.
My company used to use the simpler form controls for this process, but a situation has come up where we need the ability to make the buttons invisible, or at least appear disabled, and that doesn't seem doable with the form controls.
So my question is, is there a way to specify in my workbook that whenever a spin button is clicked, this particular macro is to be called? Or even, whenever an ActiveX object is clicked, call the macro, because the spin buttons will be the only ActiveX objects in the workbook. I've read a bit about how to create global event handlers for worksheets and workbooks, but I can't find anything related to spin buttons specifically.
I need some help using the spinner tool (the 2 way arrows) as a macro. I want it to point to different cells after each press. So, basically:
Click down once, go to cell A5 Click down again, now go to cell A6 Click down again, now go to cell A7 Clicking down again won't do anything, A7 is the end of the road
And the same thing backwards when clicking up.
I use the two commands SpinButton1_SpinDown() and SpinButton1_SpinUp(). I put the Range("A5").Select, etc. as the code. I don't know how to do the incremental part. I need a counter in there...
I have 6 text boxes on 5 different tabs all with their own spin button that will push the number up or down, starting from the default value. How do i lock/restrict the text box entry so, the spin button is the only way of changing the value?
my excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger. But now I want to have a button to hit or better just some keys to hit to stop it without using the ctrl+alt+del which closes everything.
I have an excel sheet with numerous columns/rows of data. I want to be able to adjust multiple active cells simultaneously using either a Button or Spin Button.
Adjusting a single cell is not trivial, but it is adjusting multiple active cells (range of which can/will change) that I have reached my dilemma.
Here is what I'm using to adjust a single active cell with a Spin Button:
[Code] ......
Is using multiple (user chosen) active cells even possible?
Im creating a form with a spin box option - however when i run it in test I always get a black border around the arrows. Its anoying because I want to make the spinbox small and it overtakes the arrows. I looked everywhere in the properties but can't find where to turn it off. I saw the arrorw and background color but nothing about the border.
On the attached example i have a button on sheet1 which opens a form. On this form i have four pages of a multi-page control and below it i have a spin button. What i want is for when the spin button is pressed to the right then the multi-page moves up to the next page and vice-versa for the left spin button. How do i write this code?
I want to using a spin button to update figures on a range of cells ranging from C3:AI95. Do I need to create one for every cell and link it to each one or is there a way of the spin button appearing when I select any of the cells to update.
Basically I have a range of issues across the rows on the top and the columns (B) are days of the month.
to plug a variable (integer) into a text box / spin button as its default value.
I have a sheet set up for data entry where 1 row = 1 record = 1 page (of data arranged to print on a form supplied by an outside company). This data is then arranged on the second sheet (up to a maximum of 30).
If there are there are 15 records entered on the spreadsheet on a given day I am trying to use: LastNum = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("G7:G37")) + 4 Where LastNum is the number of rows / entrys that have been typed into the first sheet and that will be printed by default.
how to get that variable into the text box / spin button control.
