How can I copy a cell from google sheet and paste in another place with power automate desktop? - power-automate

I have tried to select the cell with UI element but its not working. The specified cell not getting selected. UI element only selecting the whole google sheet, but not the specified cell. How can I copy the specified cell? Can anyone help me out?

You could use a Google Sheets API seen here https://power.automate.gallery/write-to-google-sheets-api-using-oauth-2-0-power-automate-for-desktop
Another option which might be easier is using the Power Automate cloud version which I believe has a google sheets connector built in.

Can I set a button in google sheets to alter the image url

This feels like it should be dead simple but I've not tried anything like this in google sheets before.
I have an image on a sheet but I want it to change to another image (either via altering the image url, or just hiding one and showing another etc) either via clicking the images themselves or just via a button but have no idea where to start with this and all my googling has ironically, turned up absolutely nothing.
Any help or pointers to useful sources would be greatly appreciated!
insert checkbox:
try:
=IF(A1; IMAGE("https://i.stack.imgur.com/futhU.png");
IMAGE("https://i.stack.imgur.com/JKel8.png"))
or:
=IMAGE("https://i.stack.imgur.com/"&IF(A1; "futhU"; "JKel8")&".png")

how to select the next cell in google sheet from visual studio solution project?

I had worked out a way to display google sheet with chromiumbrowser in a solution project in visual studio. I had it automatically paste value to the selected cell in this Q&A.
Now I need to figure a way out to select the next cell in the sheet.
so far I could not find an ID, Class or Xpath for a particular cell. Can anyone help?
I loaded the googlesheet in a second browser and then then had the program copy the values and paste to the google sheet, by copytoclipboard and paste. That was the solution I could arrive on.
I could not find a way to select the next cell in googlesheet via c#.

Applescript w/Keynote. Creating build orders/Transitions for text items

I see documentation for creating transitions between slides but can you create from scratch build orders w/transitions?
I have a keynote presentation that's already been created and a template with a build order of 2 items but I want to be able to add more 'steps' in the build order for text that I want to add to the slide. I can access the slide just fine in my script but can't find documentation anywhere with an example of how to do this. Any ideas? thoughts?
(Using Yosemite and Keynote 6.2)

Is there a way to export notes taken in Google Play books?

I have taken a series of notes in a book that I read on Google Play books. Is there a way to export these notes all together as a text document or some similar format?
Google has changed this and now if you have Android device you can get your notes on Google Drive. Simply do this:
Open Play Books on your Android device
Go to Settings
Save notes, highlights and bookmarks in Google Drive - turn this ON
This feature is still not perfect. The biggest problem I have is that page number is not recorded properly for most books. Instead, you just have link that opens the page in Google Play Books. Meaning, it'll probably work for you personally, but sharing notes and making sense of notes on different devices is problematic.
It isn't perfect but here is one way to do it. After doing this you will receive a zip file with your book(s) and an HTML (or JSON) file with your notes.
Follow this link to the Google Data Tools https://www.google.com/settings/takeout/downloads
Click the Create New Archive button
Click the Select None button
Go down to Google Play Books and flick the switch on
Hit the down arrow
Either download all or click on the Select Books radio (a popup will appear where you can select none again and search at the top)
After you have chosen your books, go to Next at the bottom
Pick your export options and you're good to go.
there is no such available function at the moment. I have submitted a request already, let's see what google developers say.
It works on some books and not others apparently. I can't produce a summary/review of Guttag's book for my class.I have the print version and just bought the Playbook version.

Excel-Addin with visible form

I have a query on the usage of windows form in excel add-in, application level.
Objective Statement:
Display customized windows form control, similar to a way a chart is being inserted into excel
Custom Pane
I have tried custom pane add-in but it seems to be on a entire workbook level, i need something on a worksheet level
Task Pane
I can't seem to use the task pane in application add-in for excel
Windows Form Control
When I click on a cell in excel i will lose focus to the windows form, i will need the windows to be together with the worksheet, but i can't use showdialog.
Thanks for the help in advance.
From your answer it is hard for me to figure out if you we are looking at a code solution here or something more high level, so I am going to assume that you are looking for a code solution, please correct me if I am wrong.
Have you considered using an OLE object or ActiveX?
There is an example from Microsoft here, how to develop an ActiveX control. (Here is some other walkthrough that I found helpful).
Just to give you a hint how it (the example mentioned above) looks like, here is the screenshot of the compiled example that I added onto the excel sheet:
ActiveX control can be added both manually, or by code, so I could imagine that you could also provide a COM Excel Add-in that would add some buttons onto the ribbon, that when pressed, would add the desired controls onto the sheet.
