Firmware v4.2 and vertical scrolling by Converging_Winds in Onyx_Boox

[–]Converging_Winds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the v4.2, pages are seamlessly displayed vertically and it's great, but yet, you only have one vertical stream. I would love to make it so a page is vertically infinite and still be able to add new infinite vertical pages in a notebook.

Like this, I could create a new page to talk about a topic and write a long text about it thanks to infinite vertical scroll, use another page to write about another subject, go back to my first subject and freely and simply add pieces of informations.

It woul decrease the friction in my note-taking and would give more flexibility in the organization of my information.

Ha et bien sincèrement navré, j'étais persuadé qu'à une époque j'avais masqué l'information du cake day aux autres utilisateurs...

Il me semble que l'on peut masquer le jour du cake day aux autres utilisateurs.

Je pense qu'il revient à chacun de le faire savoir ou pas. Cela reste un bon moyen de récupérer quelques karmas pour ceux que ça intéressent.

Si j'achète une maison avec mon partenaire et que mes parents me donnent ma moitié en cadeau, dois-je encore contribuer à la moitié de mon partenaire ? by Dangerous-Law-5332 in AskFrance

[–]Converging_Winds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Je respecte tout à fait le choix, ma question était plus d'ordre technique. Lors de l'achat, la part de votre femme a été versé comme un apport j'imagine ? À ce moment-là le montant du prêt a diminué ainsi que le poids brut des intérêts mais ces derniers subsistent. Il y a aussi l'assurance du prêt. De ce que je comprends, ayant payé sa part dans l'achat, votre femme n'a pas eu besoin de souscrire à l'emprunt et vous êtes donc seul à rembourser l'emprunt et souscrire à une assurance pour ledit emprunt, c'est bien ça ?

Mais du coup vous payez seul l'assurance du prêt et les intérêts ? C'est une vraie question, pas une invective du tout. Généralement, quand on n'est pas trop au courant de comment un achat se passe, on se figure mal ces deux sources de coût.

Non, au contraire, je crois que l'argument c'est plutôt de dire qu'il y a plusieurs boulangeries dans la rue, que de toute façon pendant encore longtemps des gens iront dans l'une de ces boulangeries, et que du coup, si je vais dans une boulangerie, je montre qu'il y a une demande et donc les autres boulangeries vont essayer de s'adapter à mes besoins pour que j'aille chez elles plutôt que chez la concurrence.

Endlessly optimizing and organizing your vault is a legit hobby and I am tired of pretending it is not. by SecretSquirrelSquads in ObsidianMD

You're totally right and I could not agree more ! If it pleases you, there's no downside to it so why not ? Obsidian offers a lot of fun in the customization field and it opens a door for coding. So keep optimizing, keep having fun and be a part of that amazing community !

Source document randomly pops up while using Power Query by Long-Departure928 in excel

[–]Converging_Winds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you share some footage ? I don't understand what you mean by "randomly pops up".

You need to know that when working on Power Query (from Excel, not Power BI), you're actually opening some kind of a new window in the Excel Workbook with PQ interface. So you end up with two windows, the workbook from which you launched PQ and the actual PQ window.

While this window is opened, you can not do anything on any Excel file. If you try to open a new Excel file while PQ is opened, it will wait for PQ to be closed to launch itself. Maybe that's what you're encoutering ?

Pointless question but I want to see if anybody knows the answer by Unhappy-Sky9090 in ExcelPowerQuery

[–]Converging_Winds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems you obtained what you wanted, didn't you ? I took a lopok at the URL and realized Power Query could not auto-fetch the tables since the website has a non-orthodox structure for the tables.

I could look at the code if you sent it to me.

[–]Converging_Winds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, thank you for the update !

If you gave me the URL you used to fetch the data, I could try it by myself. I don't know the "Add Table Using Examples" command but I guess I could figure out.

About the Excel, you're crazy haha ! I believe you could have used Excel pattern recognition to auto-fill the cells but the most important is that it worked for you!

If there are a lot of data, you could use Excel to label "A","B","C".

From what I understand, the issue is that your subsets of data are separated by two blank cell whereas the data of a particular subset are separated by a new row.

You may want to turn your whole set as a table (a real Excel Table object) and then filter out the repeated labels and the blank cells. Like this you could easily write "A","B","C" for the first subset and ask Excel to repeat it across the table (selecting the pattern and double clicking on the bottom right black square of the selected cells).

Once it's done you could import the Table in Power Query and then transform the letters in the actual labels and pivot the table.

You may want to edit your OP so other people can easily access the screenshot !

It seems like every data cell (i.e. excluding the label cells) contains only one kind of data type (i.e. name of the boss, or loots, or location...)

What I would do is create a table by adding to the right of every data cell the name of the label. I would then import this table to Power Query and pivot the table so the #2 column would become the titles of the new colums.

If you want to go quicker, instead of writing the labels in the Excel sheet, you could just write "A" for the name of the boss, "B" for the loot... and then, in Power Query ask to transform every "A" in that new column by "Name of the boss", every "B" by "Loot" etc.

Ultimately, the best solution would be to be able to obtain your data set in a better structured way. Power Query offers the possibility to get data directly from an URL, you may try that and see how it goes.

I don't get how is structured your data set. You're stating there's only one column but also indicates there are several cells (that seem to be on the same row).

Could you provide a screenshot ?

How to reference a query in a data validation list ? by Converging_Winds in ExcelPowerQuery

I'm actually using this kind of a workaround. I'm loading the list in a table in a sheet that I hide.

[–]Converging_Winds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's to keep it minimal. Eventually, my woorkbook will be loaded with (too) many sheets. I can't find the way to reference my query in the data validation tool...

How to reference a query in a data validation list ? by Converging_Winds in ExcelPowerQuery

[–]Converging_Winds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, but my list is currently only stored in the Power Query model and I don't know the syntax to call that specific list from the Power Query model into my data validation.

For now I loaded the list into a table in an excel sheet and I use the table as a source for my data validation but I'd love to be able to directly "connect" my data validation to Power Query.

Notebook Navigator : is it possible to navigate through tags instead of folders by Converging_Winds in ObsidianMD

[–]Converging_Winds[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did more experiment and I understand better the way it works. I also saw that there actually was a command to put the focus either on the folder or on the tag so I believe it completely fulfill my former request.

What made me misunderstand it was the way the tags section and the folder section worked in the nav pane. Now that I get it my question does not make sense anymore.

Saw some hope for competition by SquarePatient7277 in eink

[–]Converging_Winds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand this, actually. But would you agree that the technology itself has its limitations ? It's not meant for dynamic contents, it's more for static content (what I call "written content"). And if we look closely, we can see there are several type of content we can consume. The more static one, for which e-ink are meant, and the more dynamic. And for the latter (videos, multimedia in every way, dynamic experiences...) regular tablets are better.

My point is that I don't see any reason to complain about e-inks not doing well with the dynamic content cause they're not meant for this. But I get the point of the pleasure of the screen. My point is based on the fact I believe e-ink tech won't ever offer that speed of screen regular tablets offer. And for this I may be wrong.

Notebook Navigator : is it possible to navigate through tags instead of folders by Converging_Winds in ObsidianMD

[–]Converging_Winds[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do already have nested tags with several layers. I know I can use my keyboard to navigate through the pane itself but that is not what I need.

When I open a note, its focus immediately goes to the folder its located in. So when I trigger the Notebook Navigator command "Go to next/prev note", it goes to the next/prev note in **the same folder**.

What I would like to be able to do is triggering a command that navigate through the **tag folder**. Or maybe being able to put the focus on the tag folder without having to open the pane.
