All words with a certain style of character is automatically possible in the index entries?
CS4 on Mac. I have a document where each occurrence of the first use of terms important was given a character style called "first." Is there a way I could do automatically each index entry?
Hi Mary,
This can be done using a script by Peter Kahrel.
See:

Kind regards

Create an array of Virtual Machines with an index to allow the selection of the index entry
I would like to help with the following.
Using the GET - vm to return all the virtual machines in a table or a table, but with a number of index against each of them. Perhaps even the number of its position in the matrix or $myarray [0]. I am struggling with the best way to go, be it a table to 2 dimensions or an object, but then how do I get the numbers in there.
The reason for this is to present a list of virtual machines with a number on the side, to which the user then enters the number instead of having to type the name of the virtual machine.
Ideally resembling:
vCenter 0
1 Exchange
2 FilePrint
3 SQL
4 DC
$vms = $get - vm | Select name
a way to get the number. ##
$vmsindexed =?
'' This is the virtual machines to the choice.
" "
$vmindexed
" "
$selectedNum = read-host "enter the number of the Virtual Machine to power on.
$selectedVM = $vms [$selectedNum]
"You have selected Machine virtual $selectedVM.
" "
Start-VM - VM $selectedVM
Thank you in advance, I'm going crazy thinking about it!
The following script will give you a list of virtual machines with a number on the front, then you can type the number, choose the virtual machine you want to start:
$VMs = Get-VM $VMsArray = @() $VMs | ForEach-Object { $VMsArray += $_.Name } Write-Output "Here are the virtual machines to choose from" Write-Output "" For ($i = 0; $i -lt $VMsArray.Length; $i++ ) { Write-Output "$i $($VMsArray[$i])"} Write-Output "" $SelectedNum = Read-Host "Enter the number of the Virtual Machine to Power On" $SelectedVM = $VMsArray[$SelectedNum] Write-Output "You have selected Virtual Machine $SelectedVM" Write-Output "" Start-VM -VM $selectedVM -Confirm

Select all the paragraphs of a certain style without looping
Did a quick search, so please forgive me if this is a duplicate.
paragraphs var = app.activeDocument.textFrames.everyItem ().paragraphs.everyItem ();
Is it possible to points of reference with a certain style applied without a loop in each paragraph?
I am thinking something like this:
Var headlines = paragraphs.itemsByAppliedParagraphStyle ("title 1");
Headlines is an array of the paragraph, all which have the "Heading 1" paragraph style applied to them
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Just use findGrep or findText like this
app.findGrepPreferences = null app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "Headline 1" myHeadlineParagraphs = app.activeDocument.findGrep()

ActiveX activate protection document word with labview
Hi all!
I am trying to enable (or disable) protection of files"a document Word with ActiveX, someone told me that it is possible!
did someone done before?
Thanks a lot for your answers
What starting point you have? You have the report generation tool? There is no pre-made VI to do this, you will need to manipulate the ActiveX reference using nodes of property and call the nodes to perform the actions.
If you have the report Gen Toolkit, you can use the word get ActiveX references to get the reference "_Document. Once you have, it has a property of simple password stupid that you can set. Entered empty gets rid of password protection. There is also an Invoke method called Protect, which can set specific document protection options.

Before escape character point in the dn entry after provisioning OID
Our users IOM are automatically provisioned to OID using OID box connector. Everything works well except this issue.
When the value of "User login" IOM contains the character (called BILLY. (BOB), the dn entry in OID is created with an escape character (dn: uid = BILLY\.) BOB, cn is users, dc = abc, dc = com).
Example:
'User Login' IOM = BILLY. BOB
:
:
OID entry created as
DN: uid is BILLY\. BOB, cn is users, dc = abc, dc = com
First name: Billy
UID: BILLY. BOB
CN: Billy Bob
:
:
Note that the uid does not get the escape character, only the dn value is getting affected.
Thanks in advance!
KabiYou must remove. in the definition of research, which comes with STANDARD connector.

Add the already existing Word variation entry in the index
Dear common wisdom:
Hello!
I got a clue and want to add a variation of a word already in the index and that InDesign can use these two words in the index listing, not as a list of void.
For simplicity, say that I was the forms of the singular and the plural of the word stand together under the same heading.
How can I do this?
Thank you!
CJ
The index entry that you insert in the dialog box is one that gets listed in the final. If you have 'index' and 'clues' and you add the entry to the 'clues', ID displays the dialog box, add an entry to this word. Change to 'index', and ID which will be used instead.
(In fact, the word selected or the expression in the dialog box is simply a practical method. You can also change the text of 'wow' - ee, to have that appear in the index. ('Enter' has nothing to do with the 'real' text in your document - which is kind of pain if make you corrections and wait for the index to follow automatically.)

Identify the index with emphasis in listfield custom
I'm working with a custom listfield. I would like to know the index of the row that has focus, access from a menu on the screen for customization possible highlight.
I thought it would be ListField.getSelectedIndex () but it seems that a line is selected only when you click it (or switch to selection mode).
It doesn't seem to be a simple, API unless I'm missing something?
Tom
ListField.getSelectedIndex () returns the index in line with development,-1 otherwise.
Do you have the code examples to provide?

Is there a script to apply a certain style to thousands of words arranged in a list?
Hello, I tried to use FindChangeByList, but I do almost all the work of collage every word on the legs, so I might as well apply the styles to the hand.
So my plan is to apply the same style to near 11 000 words that appear in a book. These words are for most of the names and marks, and they appear throughout the whole of the text, it would be quite tedious to manually apply this style.
I have these words put aside in a list.txt
Anyone know if I could use it in any script and apply the style automatically?
Like I said, sticking each word in FindChangeByList is out of the question, just like applying style verbatim, it would still...
... Thank you!
Piece of cake. Since you do not specify, this script assumes that your text file is called "list.txt" and is located in your folder (line 1) user documents, and your style is a Style of character called "yourStyle" (line 9).
textFile = File(Folder.myDocuments+"/list.txt"); if (textFile.open("r") == false) { alert ("yeah ... that file does not exist"); exit(0); } strs = textFile.read (); textFile.close(); strs = strs.split("\n"); app.findGrepPreferences = null; app.changeGrepPreferences = null; app.changeGrepPreferences.appliedCharacterStyle = app.activeDocument.characterStyles.item("yourStyle"); while (strs.length > 0) { app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\b"+strs.pop()+"\\b"; app.activeDocument.changeGrep(); }

I got a mini iPad 2 32 GB as a gift to replace a dead laptop but I'm not at all familiar with the product. Can I create and save word documents a presentations on a flashdrive off iPad mini?
You can create word documents and powerpoint presentations, but you cannot save them directly on a normal USB.
Microsoft made a version of office for iPad, you can find it in the App Store. Here is a link:

PowerPoint

There are usb drives that work with iPads, and you can save documents to those who use their own applications.

Windows Mail wants to open all attachments with Word rather than Word, Adobe, pad etc. How can I get the attachments to open properly?
Hello
- Click the "Start" menu in the bottom left of Windows. Then select "Default programs".
- Click on the option "Associate any type of file or Protocol with a program."
- Select the file type you want to change the types of files listed. For example, if you want the text (.txt) file to open it in Microsoft Word instead of WordPad, choose '.txt '.
- Click on the "Change Program" button in the upper right window.
- In the list of programs, select "Microsoft Word". If Microsoft Word does not appear in the list, click on the button 'Browse' in the bottom right and choose Microsoft Word on your computer.
- Click on the button 'OK' and then 'close '. The next time you open this type of file, it will open it in Microsoft Word. Repeat this procedure for any other type of file you want to open in Word.

best judgment for paragraph styles, object styles and character styles
I want to learn the criteria difference and use of paragraph styles, object styles and character styles. I know how to use them, but know about the best judgment and context, when you use would be better. Can anyone recommend links? I've been using adobe. Please don't suggest books.
Paragraph styles are whole paragraphs.
Character styles are letters or isolated words. Do not use the long of an entire paragraph. Do not set all the attributes, only those who are different for the properties of the paragraph Style. Unlike Quark Xpress, in InDesign are character Styles used only for the difference of isolated words.
Paragraph styles can include the character automatically Style: Styles, GREP, nested Styles, initial letters, chips automatic & numbers and line styles.
Object styles , set the frame of the object. They include separate definitions of all of the object, the stroke and fill.
Object styles can also be applied to images in a frame and groups.
Object styles may also include in the following paragraph Style and a style of paragraphs in automatic way.
Object styles have several categories, you can choose which category is relevant to apply. For example, it is possible to apply the first style object to give the stroke and fill and apply a different object style to format the corners only and then apply the next. (With this method last only the applied object Style is linked).
Styles of the opportunity to make global changes in a document. If you build in a smart way, they are a huge time saver. They can be stored in the CC libraries or libraries with objects that are applied to them. If you have created once these styles, you can use them again, and with one or two clicks, you can make their own to new document.
My recommendation: the habit of Styles, name them always with the same names that it helps you to be accustomed to them and to work faster, much faster.
There are more models: Table Styles, Styles of cell, the Master Pages and color chart.

I work with the new drives and want to prevent all word breaks in a document. I see where I can stop word that will remove one at a time with the character box - but is there a way to prevent each of them through the entire document?
Thank you
How do you create a document without jump? Or are you referring to the break?
If so, disable it by using paragraph styles.

The world changing all Instances of one CSS Style to another
I work with RH6 (HTML). I'm curious to know if there is a method / tool that will allow me to take all instances of a certain CSS style and replacement by another (for example, in the same way that you can by using FrameMaker and paragraph/character Styles). I'd like to be able to do that project nationwide, but if it must be done on a basis of subject by subject, it would be OK... I'm just trying to avoid the need to locate each instance of the style and change it manually.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!There is nothing like that built in HR or any other HTML editor, I think.
You could do using a multi file find and replace tool but I wouldn't use the one that comes with HR. Also, whatever you do, make sure that you create a full backup before you start.
If you want to change all instances of say
to say
that would be your search and replace. Do not forget to change closing tags as well.
Perhaps the more likely you will want to change something like class = "red" to class = "green". Which affects only the opening tag.
If you use a tool such as far from http://www.helpware.net , you can either leave it blows through all the headings, or you can control each instance of the tag and change it or pop it.

OK, let's go for a little typography lesson
"Styles" are real, it means that you will have the styles that are available for that font family. Italic, bold as a style has been designed to the breast than family and it is much more than having twice the character regular with a small gap between them (for "BOLD") or oblique the ordinary character (for emphasis). What I have described - twice for "BOLD", oblique for italics - is how the fake formatting is at work, that you will find next to the Format indication: they can be made to all policies, even those who don't have no bold, italic... in their family, but they don't seem as good or professional. For the most part, I call them the MS - way (I'm not a fan of MS learn more), if you use CTRL-B in an MS app - you just create a 'false' style, twice the same character with a small gap so that it looks more "BOLD".
I hope this makes sense? A true designer of course prefer real styles, but I have found that sometimes they don't are not fully supported when getting out it of containers of text with variables. In this case, maybe no one will see you 'Sin' by using a wrong format.
