OMG! Arrrrgh! (No "Freeze Panes" Feature in Numbers)

[WhySoSerious]

For chr|st sake Apple, freakin' add "Freeze Panes" as a function in Numbers!

Chr|st, this is ridiculous! Such a common, widely used feature in MS Office and you somehow don't translate that over to Numbers?

*banging head on desk over and over and over...*

I feel your pane, and the "official" response doesn't help...

 

[reubs]

I don't use Numbers (yet), but that's a terrible solution!

Brilliant!

That is the worst support article suggestion ever.

 

[runplaysleeprun]

That is absolutely hilarious. Whoever wrote that should be slapped.

Then promoted.

 

[pianoman]

hah. i literally laughed out loud when i read their suggestions.

 

[J@ffa]

Hahahahaha. Classic!

 

[clevin]

lol, this is instant classic.

its not apple's app can't meet your job
its that you have the wrong job.....

That is the most asinine excuse for a "solution" that I have ever seen from what purports to be a producer of cutting edge software.

It reminds me of the old joke: Doc, it hurts when I do this. (Doctor) Don't do that, please pay on the way out.

Software doesn't offer a needed function? Don't need it, problem solved!

I can't tell if this is a double-bluff

Either you're mildly funny, or f**king hilarious.

My inner sceptic demands a link to an Apple webpage before I believe that is truly an Apple authorized solution.
But nice photoshop'ing.

I think it is a fake. It says article ID 307116, but that is this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307116

interesting, how do they number that articles? I thought most articles has no number at all?

lol...thanks for the light-hearted joke....ok, back to work...

Also:

- the title indicates Pages (not Numbers)
- support pages for numbers typically start with "Numbers 1.0"

edit: nice job though - great way to make your point

Sorry guys, I only had a couple of minutes to toss that up before I left for a meeting.

Happy to come back and see that the graphic eased the "pane"... errors and all!

(Back to bashing our heads on the table over NUMBERS lack of freeze panes!)

 

[jackc]

Hilarious, that would be good for "PC" to mention in the next commercial!

 

[TheStu]

That was a pretty funny Shop job there... I definitely laughed.

"If you run out of space on your 30" Apple Cinema Display, buy another!"

And after looking up what pane freezing is, I can see why someone would want that, and it is a little silly that Apple didn't include it.

On the other hand though.... it is a version 1.0.

 

[Osarkon]

Cheers for stealing 2 minutes of my time, I actually went to look for that article just to see for myself if such a ludicrous suggestion could be true.

Thankfully it wasn't.

 

[dirtleg]

Yikes!

Methinks I have been duped. In the future I will practice more patience to see what those with better powers of observation have to say before I stick my foot in my mouth.
