Use One Big Picture To Fill Instead Of Gradient Fill?
Jul 21, 2014
I am currently working on a project and want to use a picture of a cauldron and have that filled in as opposed to a bar graph filled with cauldron pictures. Is this possible? I picture something similar to how someone would fill a picture on a piece of paper until they hit their goal.
Secondly, If I need to do a bar graph I know I can do conditional formatting on the values within their cells but can I create this formatting specifically to the graphs themselves?
I'm trying to format the plot area of a X-Y scatter chart in a three colour gradient (Green, Yellow & Red).
The trick is, I would like the green portion to be centred in a user defined place on the plot with the yellow radiating from it, and the red radiating from the yellow. Ideally I would like to define some stops for the green as a user defined shape, with stops for the yellow outside the green stops (like the % stops you get in a vertical or angled gradient, but instead of the stops being simple straight lines or concentric circles from the middle, they would be user defined shapes).
I can do the normal types of gradient, but have no idea how to customise them in this way.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim shpTemp As Shape Set shpTemp = Worksheets("Sheet3").Shapes(ListBox1.Value) shpTemp.Copy
With Worksheets("Sheet1") .Activate . Range("A1").Select .Paste Set shpTemp = .Shapes(.Shapes.Count) shpTemp.Fill.UserPicture ListBox2.Value End With End Sub
However, when run in excel 2007 the shape is not filled. If you right click the shape, format shape and click on the "Picture or texture fill" it will fill the shape with the previously selected picture in the userform. I have tried by adding
I have set up a rollover hyperlink so that when I hover over the cell it changes colour and creates a good effect. To do this I have another cell on the sheet that turns to 1 when the cell in question is hovered over.
I need a code so that when that cell displays the number 1. the object (which is rectangle 2) changes from white fill. to a picture I have saved on my desktop.
I cant quite figure out the coding and have been messing about with things like..
if cell range e.g a1 = 1 then rectangle 2 .userpicture " path " else .solid etc.
how to enter data in non-adjacent cells using a fill command.
Here is what I am trying to do: in the column, I am holding ctrl button to select every 10th cell down the sheet. I need to enter a date in every selected cell that is exactly 7 days apart, i.e., 11/7/08 then 11/14/08 then 11/21/08, etc.... but no other dates or data.
I have tried to figure out a way to do this other than manually, but am confounded.
Is there anyway to automatically fill the empty added cell after inserting a row without using the fill handle? For example, for a series of numbers: [URL]
2. Drag the fill handle Selected cell with fill handle across the range that you want to fill.
Or running balance: [URL]
2. Extend the running balance formula into the new rows by selecting the last cell in the balance column and then double-clicking the fill handle.
I'm trying to loop through a list of about 1300 items and copy the rows where one of the cells has a fill color to 2 different sheets in the same workbook. If there's no fill color, the row moves to a different sheet.
My code is determining that all cells have a fill.
For Each cell In Range("Classification") If cell.Interior.Color blank Then cell.Select Range(Selection, Selection.Offset(0, -9)).Copy Destination:=Range("Compliance") Range(Selection.Offset(0, -5), Selection.Offset(0, -9)).Copy Destination:=Range("Mstar") Else cell.Select Range(Selection, Selection.Offset(0, -9)).Copy Destination:=Range("RP") End If Next cell
Conditional formatting is lacking. I need to colorize each data point on the graph according to a characteristic cell (not an x-axis or y-axis variable). I have done something similar by simply graphing a group of points as a series and changing the series color. I'm looking for a more graceful solution. From the example picture attached (i would attach a workbook, but the data is sensitive), a point is charted based on two variables and colorization is attempted based on the third variable. i would find the range of the third value, assign a gradient based on the spread, and colorize each point. My VBA syntax is lacking for chart functions
B7 and b8 is blank above, so want VBA to automatically put preceding value as "1" in B7 and B8. Same way B10 which is blank, have the preceding value 2 to update there. Like wise do for all below. Update preceding value.
I have having trouble here with this code below, as I have fill down range to AM11:AM55, but when i delete or keep adding new rows, an error appears saying out of range. So how can i get the fill down to fill to the last row i have?
Can anyone supply a formula which can be filled down column J of s/s. The formula should look at column H and find those cells where the content of the cell is lower than the one above it. I supply, in the enclosed attachment, three examples and have marked with an X any qualifying cells in adjacent column I. The formula needs to incorporate cells above and below so as to produce a running average whereby no above cell is higher than any below.
I'm looking to create a macro, one where depending on which the active cell is, if I hit say Ctrl + Shift + D. The macro would fill down the row I selected one row, but there are certain columns I want it to fill down: I want it to Fill Down columns: A to E, G, I, K, M to P, R to T.
For example, my cursor is in cell N45, I want it to fill down row 45, but only columns A to E, G, I, K, M to P, R to T to row 45.
I am creating a simple userform wherein when I clicked the save button, it will look for the value of a textbox in the excel column then it will save the details on that row. For example, the value of textbox is "12345" and it is located on D5, the value of textbox2, textbox3, textbox4 will be saved in E5,F5,G5.
i have attempted may be totally in the wrong direction. I have a worksheet where column A should hold the same value for many Rows of information, but instead only prints once in the first row of that section. The # of rows in each section vary; sort of like this - where ... is a blank cell:
A 1 ... 2 ... 3 ... 4 B 1 ... 2 ... 3
I would like to write a macro that loops through Column A and replaces empty cells with the most recent value. When i run the following code it puts the value in the blank cell, but fails to loop to the next.
I am trying to color code certain rows in my data. there are only two columns a, column b. my code below will look at some row number in column 1 and look for a value "total", then again, look on the same row number, column 2 and look for value "1", then color fill it.
I'm creating a financial document, the currency is in £ and then I'll need to convert to $ based on the decided rate. So I'm trying to make 1 cell (A1) as my current exchange rate and then have the formula =sum(B5*A1) so that if the rates change, I can just change that one cell and all will be updated. I'm doing this for hundreds of rows so I need an efficient way to do that.
The problem happens when I try to continue that formula down for B6, B7, etc. It just keeps changing A1 to A2, A3, etc, it's filling down that as well and I don't want it to.
I need it to autofill just as if you selected range A1 and A2 and double clicked that little square on the bottom right hand side of the cell (so it stopps auto-filling at the last active cell in B)
I need to create a macro that searches for blanks in column G, from row 2 to the last row of the worksheet, and then inserts the value 1 in these blank cells.
I have been copy pasting different solutions from this site and amended them a bit, but my excel skill are not sufficient for this.
i typically have a difficult time figuring out how to reference cells correctly depending on the situation. anyways what i have is a formula in a cell and i want to fill in the next four cells to the right.
I have a vba script, that imports data from a sql server and queries it in excel. My question is, Could someone tell me how I could tell excel to color fill rows that if 3 different columns did not match, color the rows that the data is on ,red. ex: row1 : column b2 =5, column c2=5, column d2=6 , row1 would not be red. But if
row2 :Column b3=5 , column c3=6 , column d3=7 , row2 would be red .
