    For those who are wondering how to create more useful filenames, like filenames according to your sheet. Go watch my new tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/2Gmn3BPJhE4/v-deo.html

      Thank you so much for the video. For the most part it works. I only wanted to know that how did you brought your first map picture of Australia which is probably "Pixelvariable1" in the first place. Because whenever I try to bring my picture it opens in the next project not in the same project as I can work with the texts. This is the only problem i am facing. Thank you

    Thank you for taking pauses and speaking clearly, and posting time stamps in the description. The pace of this video is perfect. Most tutorials are 3 hours long or 10 minutes of micro machines talking.

    • @PrimoTutorials
      @PrimoTutorials  9 місяців тому

      Try going back to the original file before importing a new version. Might be because it keeps the crop of the imported dataset as new maximum size.

    • @andreimoldovanu9931
      @andreimoldovanu9931 2 роки тому

      A year later but I’ll answer in case someone else is looking for this. To do that you have to tick the option when importing the data for the first column to define the name of the data set. Then, when you export them, you will be able to select dataset name as a variable in the name.

    Great tutorial. One question. If you you have a text file of numbers, like 1000, however, you need them centered from the center, for example 1000 is in in the middle of a circle. So when number 1 is printed, its natural place should be the center, rather than to the right. I'm sure there's a simple way for this but I'm having a hard time finding it. Thank you for this tutorial!
