Product questions

I have created several tables but I want to alphabetize a column.  Can this be done?  Alternatively I can move the rows around so the column is in alphabetical order but that seems like a lot of work.  Thank you.

I have used the "Repace Dataset" feature to upload new spreadsheet information. I can see that the new data appears correctly but the rules for adding icons are not updating. 

How do I remove the tutorial how-to video from my sheet view?

How to see the number of charts in our LucidChart org?

I have a unique question. We would like to show our organization chart on a tiered system where each tier represents roles/responsibilities. Whereas we have directors that have managers working for them which would show them at a tier below but also have non managers reporting to the director. We don't want to show managers and non managers on the same tier but a line showing that they report to the director. Can this be done?

Been using Visio for years looking at alternatives. Simple Q .... I draw a line how do I change the angle ..... or even draw at a required angle in first place

Some of my diagrams in Lucidchart on a page are small. Is there a way to resize the canvas so the image fits nicely and not leave tons of whitespace grid on the canvas?Thanks 

An attached example comes from Visio. I would like to enter this in Lucidchart. "A56: Persoon insluiter (Voorbeeld uitvoerder)" refers to "T56 Persoon insluiten (Voorbeeld transactie)" with the name T56. This Lucidchart file is exported to Visio. A file is created from Visio which is to be imported into another application. Do I have to use the WEB link for this?

Hi There the lines on my orga chart do not come directly down from the centre of the above employee they seem to go down the sides on some. How do I make sure that the lines are linked from each centre? I have attached an image.

I am trying to public (export) to a URL or PDF and the following happens: Generate URL- the viewer (on view only mode) will see all the layers already opened. When they click on the hotspot to close the layer it does not disappear until the viewer clicks and drags the canvas. I want the URL to open to the viewer so that no layers are showing and then they can toggle the layers on/off as needed.  

Hi  I would like to share the lucidcharts with my broader company and there is no way I can do that as sharable link is grayed out. Only way to collaborate/ share people is to add them individually which is daunting and cumbersome. Can you please guide me how can I accomplish it as my IT team is also oblivious to any setting to enable 'sharable link' as that is the best way for sharing with big group.   Best Sam

I have a flow chart which got out of hand in terms of length.  To fit onto word I want to take sections of the document and export them in .png format.  Is this possible?  Every time I select the region and choose export I get the whole document

Hi there I did a quick search for a "histogram" on the shape search tool on the left and was pleased to have found plenty of histogram. However one generic histogram caught my eye and when I did a google search about that same histogram's title I found it on google search belonging to some wikimedia website which raised copyright concerns for us as we need to include a copy of that histogram in our book. So are your searchable histograms or any diagram for that matter copyrighted? Can we use them freely in our materials? Thanks. Kind regardsBader

Ich benötige verschiedene Farben z.B. vom Server-Symbol. Wie kannich diese Farbe vom Standard-Blau ändern?

Hi I have a process doc set up with 5 swim lanes.   I need to insert a whole new section within the middle of the process is there a way of moving all the boxes and arrows in one go to create the space I need in the middle of this file?   Moving them one by one will take ages and mess up the alignments ThanksZoe 

data mapping... Just found out that Excel file I imported and linked 230 objects to had some of its column data wrong...  If I want to keep those objects properly "mapped" to their rows in the dataset does Lucidchart use the "unique" column (what we're asked for at import) as the link for the objects to hold on to? (Sorry if I worded that wrong.)  

Any way to set the portion of a page which a hotspot links to? The way a PDF bookmark can have a page view associated with it. So when the user clicks they are taken to the center of the page maybe at 100% maybe fit to window but not some random odd corner.

I am trying to get started with lucidchart because it seems like a great tool and after an hour I have given up. My question is basically this 10 year old one: https://lucidchart.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/205313246-Selecting-Objects-What-are-the-tricks I have been trying to get this working for so long that I made a screen recording since that comment thread suggests that support doesn't experience the same problem: https://youtu.be/1z4U68z14nk To be clear the screen recording changes the way that selecting objects breaks when screen recording is active I can move around the most recently selected item but nothing else. When screen recording is _not_ active I can only move around some huge object and not the items I'm trying to select. In the video normally I can move around both of the accounts boxes but not any of the individual items (e.g. ec2/vpn gateway). What am I doing wrong?

Edited: Submitted feature request form.   Each document page allows dragging a double ended arrow in the bottom left to adjust vertical size top right to adjust horizontal size and bottom right corner for vertical and horizontal simultaneously. This page size adjustment should be found on all four sides top left corner and bottom right corner.  Otherwise if unused white space exists on the left side of the page the user has to select everything and move it to the left then adjust the page size from the right.

Hi I originally set up my account by selecting the sign in with Google option but would now like to be able to access using a username and password instead.  When I go into account settings no password is shown so I add a password and then click save changes which appears to work but then when I log out and try to log in again using my email address and password I get a message saying ‘login failed. Invalid username or password’.  When I then login again via Google the password is no longer shown in account settings.  I have tried this a number of times now with the same issue each time.  Please could someone advise how I can add a password. Thanks Nigel
