Specifying Constraints in Advanced Entry Mode

  To use the Constraints panel in Advanced Entry mode:

1. Switch to Advanced Entry mode by selecting Advanced Entry in the corner of the Constraints editor.

2. In the Constraints editor, enter a mathematical formula. You can use the buttons at the bottom of the Constraints panel to help you edit the formula.

   For information on the Constraints editor syntax, see Constraint Rules and Syntax.

   You can also enter parts of a constraint formula into spreadsheet cells and then reference those cells, separated by an operator, in a formula. See Constraints and Cell References in Advanced Entry Mode.

3. Enter any additional constraints on their own lines.

4. When you are done, click Next to display the Options panel.

   Note:

   In Advanced Entry mode, you can use Ctrl+c and Ctrl+v to copy and paste constraints to duplicate them for further editing. You can also paste formulas from the clipboard, and this is limited to Advanced Entry mode.
