• Chips not aligning the text in Dreamweaver CS5

  I am currently taking a web development class so it's a really basic part of things like the class just started, but for some reason when I align the text on the Center with the bullets, it looks fine in Dreamweaver, and then once I have watch in Chrome the bullets are off to the far left. Any ideas?

  This is an excellent example of the "differences between browsers.

  Chrome "just that" when you ball a focused list.

  Some browsers interpret things a little differently than others. In general, that is to say the culprit to do something unexpected, but other browsers have their things too.

  Chrome wants you to use list-style-position: inside on css of the tag

  to get them to the wire.

• Align the text with multiple lines

  Hi, I need help fast please. I thought it would be easy, but I can't get out and hours of searching online turned up nothing. Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place!

  I need align the text on several lines. It's a calendar I design for charity. I'm stuck with letters and numbers. The requested provision is a little like this...

  M T W Th F S S

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  I need the numbers to be central at the time, if that makes sense? The only way I could do it so far is to write in excel, Center it and then paste it to the Commission in the PS, but due to the size, I work at, I have to resize each month individually, which means they could end up being slightly different and I need them to be perfect. Is it possible that I can do this in PS, I know, I work with the exact sizes on each month?

  It's probably something really simple that I'm missing, but I just can't cope.

  I use CS6 and the font is Century Gothic, if that's any help.

  Thanks in advance!

  I've now sorted! Thanks anyway

• Align the text of the varchar2 column data

  Hello
  
  It is in reference below thread:
  Re: Align the text of varchar2
  
  I think I should post my question in this forum, rather than General database,
  
  I created a table and inserted the same that in the thread that above, and when I said:
  Select ID, FILLED_TEXT(DESCRIPTION,30) FROM T;
  
  It does not show the data in the column as aligned in 30 word boundaries. I thought, that I would be able to resolve the issue with the help of the http://soft.buaa.edu.cn/oracle/bookshelf/Oreilly/prog2/ch11_02.htm link, but failed.
  
  Kindly help me more.
  
  Kind regards.

  Okay, so you're saying there is already a tags in the code to indicate where the line breaks are necessary, so a small adjustment of the data to include these tags and also the code...

• How to put a new line in the text block using jsx?

  Hello guys,.

  I am concatenating the content of the text block using two JSX, but I want separator as a new line. I have tried \n but does not work please help how to do that.

  var  seperator = "\n" 
  frame1.textItem.contents + seperator + text;
  

  Hi UpendraSengarr,

  Try this:

  var frame1 = app.activeDocument.activeLayer;
  var  seperator = "\r";
  frame1.textItem.contents = frame1.textItem.contents + seperator + "text";

• Table header row gets cut off from view when the text block is resized

  I'm designing a table that has a header row, 6 body rows and 5 columns. I want the header skewed to 20º and rotation type of needles from the same angle. Knows someone who worked with tables, it is not possible to rotate the text to this value via the parameters of the cell, but the job is to split the table into two blocks of text. The lower sash will be the body lines, but the Executive must have the header where it gets skewed to the specified angle. The text must be created in separate and then cut and paste frames in each column header and then it can be rotated.

  The problem I have is when I try to drag the bottom of the text block to the top while the header remains visible, the header gets cropped view. The only way to prevent it from is Cup is I leave the first line in the frame, but then it gets skewed is not what I want. It seems that the block of text ignores the header still exists. The screenshot below has two tables. The top version is the one that I want to apply the effect to. The bottom has the effect, but his top line is a line of body (not a header).

  

  I don't think that it is possible to have a heading row without at least a body line in the framework...

• position of the image/text in the text block

  Hello

  I use textframe to place images and text.

  WHN I put the text / images, by default, the images are aligned at the top of the text block, I need to put it at the bottom of the textframe.

  is there a possible adjustment of the document actuive / app so that by default the content should be aligned to the bottom

  Thank you.

  Search in the object that defines the vertical positioning: textFramePreferencesand you will see there at the time of the Document and the Application as possible parents.

  app.activeDocument.textFramePreferences.verticalJustification = VerticalJustification.BOTTOM_ALIGN;
  

  define the default for new text frames downwards. You can also use

  app.textFramePreferences.verticalJustification = VerticalJustification.BOTTOM_ALIGN;
  

  to set it as a global preference for all your new documents, but anyway this sounds like a bad idea.

• Rotate the text with the character within the text block style

  Insert the text block in the block of text as an anchor and rotation you need.

• Problem with the text block, put in place when it is used on the page number marker

  Hello!

  I would use the text block on the marker page number on the master page in Indesign. The text block should change width when increases the page number. It does not work. What happens is that when the number of page moves a two-digit figure, the numbers tightened itself (compressed on top of each other) and the block of text changes size unless I drag on it (which means I have to manually unlock the master page first).

  I'm doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

  Thank you!

  Altogether! So, you can use a rule of Pará to simply do it!

• How to get the text block, given anchor (~ a)

  I need to dynamically position anchored with anchor text blocks (but the relative position will be different for each anchor). If I grep ~ i can get the anchor marker - how to get the text block once I got this marker?

  Thank you

  The marker "anchor" is a character of "simple".

  So you can do the following if you have identified the character (and in this example selected it):

  //Start with an "Anchor Marker" selected:
  var myCharacter = app.selection[0];
  
  if (myCharacter.texts[0].textFrames.length == 1){
  
  var myAnchoredTextFrame = myCharacter.texts[0].textFrames[0];
      //do something with the anchored text frame:
      myAnchoredTextFrame.fillColor = "Yellow";
  
      };
  

  You can set the myCharacter variable differently, if you know the index of the character according to his history of parent.

  Or if you have found the character as part of a search GREP or TEXT by ExtendScript (JavaScript).

• Text on the stroke to the text block

  I was wondering if there is no way to force the text in a text block to be at the top of the race that I added to the text box. The descenders are cut and I have messed around with various options of baseline for the text block, but can't seem to find a way to make it work without making the largest text block which I prefer not to do.

  I saw a few solutions, but they all seem to be for earlier versions by using the settings that I can't find in the CC options.

  Any help would be appreciated! Thank you
