2.8 Spreadsheets
Similar to Excel spreadsheets, many windows in the Hog 4 OS such as the programmer,
output window, and cue editors are presented as spreadsheets.
All of the spreadsheets in the Hog 4 OS share a common set of features:
To re-size a spreadsheet column: Place the cursor over the right-hand edge of the
column header. The cursor will change to a double-ended arrow. Click and drag to
resize the column.
To move a spreadsheet column: Click and drag on the column header.
To hide a spreadsheet column: Right-click on the column header, and choose Hide.
To show a hidden spreadsheet column: Right-click on a column header, and
choose the name of the column from the menu.
To sort the spreadsheet: Right-click on a column header and select Sort to sort the
spreadsheet by the values in that column. Select Sort again to the reverse the direction
of the sort. You can also right-click on a column header and select Sub-sort to assign a
second level of sorting. For example, if you sort the Fixture window by fixture type, and
sub-sort by Patch, then all the Desk Channels will be shown grouped together, in the
order of their patch address.
To select all the cells in a spreadsheet column: Double-click on the column header
at the top of the spreadsheet.
To select a single spreadsheet cell: Click or press in the cell. You can use the
cursor keys below the Trackball to change which cell is selected. If the cell is editable,
it will have a red border.
To select a range of cells in a spreadsheet: You can click or press and then drag
across a range of cells to select them all. Alternatively, you can click in the first cell,
press and hold Thru, and click in the last cell; this is useful if you want to select a large
range and need to scroll the window.
