Increment Cell value by one by clicking

问题:

I want to write a formula in Google sheets so that I can attach to a button to make the value in a cell increase by 1 each time you click it. Here is the best I could find on this topic.

I attempted to do this, but to no avail. I am using Windows 7 and Chrome.

First create a script to increment the cell value. For instance, to increment cell "A1" by one the following script would work:

function increment() {
  SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('A1').setValue(SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('A1').getValue() + 1);
}

Save this script and open your spreadsheet and follow these steps:

  • Go to "Insert" > "Drawing" and draw a button using shapes and text.
  • Position your button accordingly, and right-click on it to display an arrow on the side of it.
  • In the drop-down menu, select "Assign Script." and type the name of your function. (In this case "increment")
  • The first time when you click on it, it'll ask for permission but should work subsequently.
