Shifting the content view (origin) in a spreadsheet or painting frame

    You can control which part of a spreadsheet or painting is displayed in a frame by shifting the position of the contents.

Shifting origin in a painting frame

    To move the painting within a painting frame:
    1 Select the frame and choose Frame Info from the Edit menu.
    2 In the first Origin text box, type the number of pixels you want to shift the painting to the left.
    3 In the second Origin text box, type the number of pixels you want to shift the painting upward.

    After moving the painting left or up, you can move it right or down by typing lower numbers in the Origin text boxes. (Typing 0 returns the painting to the default position.)

    Note: dpi means dots (pixels) per inch, so when the resolution is set to 72 dpi, 72 pixels equals one inch.

Shifting origin in a spreadsheet frame

    To move the spreadsheet within a spreadsheet frame:
    1 Select the spreadsheet frame and choose Frame Info from the Edit menu.
    2 In the Origin box, type the address of the cell (for example, S24) that you want to appear in the upper-left corner of the frame.

    Tip: To refer to a spreadsheet cell in another spreadsheet, you can name a spreadsheet frame.

    Note: Spreadsheet frames are created 50 rows by 20 columns in size. To change the size of a selected spreadsheet frame, you can open the frame as a separate window and insert or remove cells, rows, and columns.
