Re: Musician Concert Schedule Widget
Like Acorn suggests, I might use the Table widget or use a Google Drive sheet.
There are advantages/disadvantages to both.
The largest problem with both methods is letting others amend the files. Unless they really know what they're doing it can quickly become a nightmare.
Xara's Table widget draw backs are:
1: You can't dictate the column width, It's automatic, and is wastefull of space.
2: It only uses csv files. Commas are used very commonly in everyday use. It would be easier if you could dictate the seperation character, such as a colon or hash (#).
3: The biggest draw back is the ability to sort columns into alphabectical order. Fine if you require this feature, but a disaster if not. Sorting a table contents on columns makes the table meaningless. The only alternative is to place an image above this top row such that the sorting buttons can't be accessed.
Google Drive sheets draw backs are:
1: It can be tricky getting the table to show within the iframe. Change the table width and horizontal scroll bars appear.
2: It shows 'unwanted' headers & footers on the sheet. These need to be hidden by image overlays.
3: Biggest issue is showing other users how to work in a spreadsheet & how to amend it, without completely messing it up I prefer one editor only, me.
