Spreadsheet data sliding out of view

I have a numbers spreadsheet that I am using to collaborate with several others at work. We have five columns as header columns that are frozen so as to stay in view when a user scrolls to the right. The first (non-frozen header) column began to slowly creep “underneath” the frozen headers. We were forced to extend the width of this first column and justify everything in to the right so it could remain visible. Slowly but surely over the next few days, many of the next several columns began to hide “under” the header columns. Unfreezing didn’t help, and utilizing keyboard arrows didn’t work. The data is there, it’s just not visible. Has anybody anybody else seen this? If so, do you have a solution. This is certainly a deal breaker, and it’s hard for me to believe that my group of coworkers are the only ones experiencing this.

Hi j,


Perhaps the table has been moved into the page margin. Drag the "bullseye" to the right.


Regards,

Ian.

Haven't seen this invoked as your description implies.


Sliding under frozen header rows and columns is the intended behaviour as the table is moved up or left on the screen, but shouldn't happen without action by the user.


That action does not have to be deliberate, though. I find it occurring usually when I get a second finger too close to the trackpad, changing a single finger stroke to a two-finger swipe. Very easy to do.


Regards,

Barry
