Tutorial 6
6.1, 6.2 Completed: easy with no major glitches in the tutorial!
6.3 Completed
6.4 Configure advanced formatting using Arcade
• ok: hit the wall with step 3. The highlighted code, as typed in (on my mac) is not working. Sometimes there are issues with the characters (there are, for example, different kinds of parenthesis). But I used the auto-complete in the coding and it still gives me an error. give this a try and if it doesn’t work skip to the next section. The only thing I can think of is to try on a PC (which I’ll do later).
