I received iWork 08 today, and my son and I eagerly installed it and started experimenting. We are very impressed!
But --- there is one thing that we cannot figure out.
If you have some data being displayed, and you select some or all of it and select a chart type (column) to be created, the labels default to "Undefined n" if there is no header row defined. OK, this is not so bad.
But if one opens a file based on the Mortgage template, they seem to have defined the chart in a way that uses dynamic Category Labels from a table that does not have a header row! If you select the "Monthly Payment by Interest Rate", the source cells are highlighted -- but so are the cells above them that contain the dynamic category labels.
My son and I have tried everything and looked in all of the documentation, and we cannot figure out how they achieved this.
Or is it only possible if youi are defining a template????
You can see that the labels are dynamic by changing the interest rate in the "Mortgage Details" table - as the rate is changed the other tables update accordingly.
Can anyne explain how they have achieved this?
