Hello all
Two (unrelated) questions on using Calc:
(1) How do I freeze a row so that scrolling through the rest of the
spreadsheet the top/ frozen row remains visible?
On the top of the scroll bar, just above the up arrow, you should see
a dark line. Place the mouse pointer on this and the pointer changes
to a double headed arrow. Right click and hold to move where you want
the separation. For columns the line in on the right end of the lower
scroll bar.
Wasn't aware of that as an option. Thanks for pointing that out.
(2) When mousing over the various menus, the yellow text bubble that
explains what the item does conceals the menu items concerned. How
can I shift the bubble so that it no longer obscures the menu item it
describes?
There is no way to reposition the help pop-up. You can turn off the
tips, Tools> Options> OpenOffice.org> General . At the top
select/deselect Tips.
Unfortunately that kind of defeats the object. I want the pop ups
because they do help explain the menu option. I just don't want the
little buggers obscuring the actual menu items. I've tried dragging
them off to the side and it just doesn't work, so I was curious as to
whether or not there was an option to reposition them.
Oh well.
HTH
It did, thanks.
