  • Patent number: 10186058
    Abstract: Various techniques for visualizing cross-pivoted tables are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes determining if a first dimension and a second dimension of a cross-pivoted table contain non-numerical values, the cross-pivoted table having a plurality of data points each dependent upon a first value in the first dimension and a second value in the second dimension. In response to determining that the first dimension and the second dimension contain non-numerical first and second values, the non-numerical first and second values can be converted to corresponding numerical first and second values. The method can then include plotting, on a display, a visual representation of the plurality of data points of the cross-pivoted table using the numerical first and second numerical values as first and second axis, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20130339832
    Abstract: Table styles provide a way to format an entire spreadsheet table quickly and easily. According to described implementations, table styles can be created and customized for repeated use in a spreadsheet application. As a result, a user does not have to manually modify multiple formatting options for each table included in one or more spreadsheets. A graphical user interface is also described that provides simple user access to existing table styles that can be modified according to the user's requirements.

  • Publication number: 20070050700
    Abstract: Spreadsheets are subdivided into formattable table elements that may include multiple table cells so that the multiple table cells can be formatted as a single element. As such, a gradient format can be applied across the range of multiple table cells instead of to individual table cells. A format property can be applied to a spreadsheet table to provide alternating table element formats that are automatically updated when cells or formattable table elements are added, deleted, hidden, shown or moved. As a result, when a table modification is made, the alternating format of the table is updated before the table is rendered on a display.
