Re: Side view plug-in I've worked in IT all my life, and we have a saying that Excel is the wrong tool for every job, because it is so often misused for doing the strangest of tasks. It seems you have decided to embrace Excel and make it the only tool for every job! Seriously, I can't imagine trying to do plans in Excel My brain hurts even thinking about it. Bitmap graphics in GIMP or Krita, vector graphics in Inkscape. Excel?... it's like using a chainsaw to trim your nose hair. It might get the job done, but it'll be a bloody mess. As you are retired and abusing a very old version of Excel, is it fair to say that you are reluctant to learn new software? At the end of the day, use what works for you, but... I do have to put my IT lecturing hat on for a moment though, and wag my finger at using such old, outdated applications (and possibly operating system). General support for Office 2007 ended in 2012. That is a more than a decade of potential exposure with zero security updates. If you insist on using a spreadsheet tool to create plans, perhaps look into the free LibreOffice suite of applications. It will install on Windows, and it operates much like Excel. More importantly, you can keep it up to date at no cost, minimizing your risks. And yes... you can draw into the spreadsheet there too. |
