At the end of my mind: placing anchored object inline with text & wrap

I never learned to InDesign that I had granted.  Once I managed well with Aldus Pagemaker.  But I just spent the last two hours trying to solve a huge gap in my knowledge and I can't do it.  I'm exasperated and desperately need help.

What I want to do: I have a tech with a lot of text manual and did need to place graphical objects in a way that the text will be around the object and if I need to edit the text, the graph will move with which I inserted the chart.

What's happening:

1. I have a block of text with the text.  I place the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph, and then click file > place, then choose a graphic.

2 using the selection tool, I click the image and then click the 'wrap around bounding.

3. the text moves a tiny bit but not wraps around the object.

4 object is, however, / rooted, inline with text.

OR

1. with nothing selected, click on file > place, then choose a graphic.

2. I place the graphic on the lower part of the page on an empty space.

3. I move the chart on the text and then click the icon 'wrap around bounding.

4. the text flows but when I change the text, it does not flow in the graph.

Conclusion:

I'm retarded.  I even went through the example of Lynda here: http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/?id=vid0073 I was able to place my object in its document and look at the wrapped text to flow around the graphic text.

I read the help documentation (I'm a big fan of reading).

The only thing I can think is I put my text box to the top wrong or I don't know.  I'm so frustrated that I seriously almost in tears.

My sample document (I am under a NDA and cannot release my original document, but I have reproduced what I did in the other) is here to someone who can tell me what I did wrong.  Thank you kindly.

You are not delayed. Text wrapping is not intuitive with anchored objects.

For items online, dressing affects only the text after the inserted object. For custom anchored objects, it only affects the text beyond the line where the anchor point.

Often, this means that you do intuitive tricks to get things working as you want, like putting the anchor in its own paragraph, or advance on where you thought, it should be.

  • How can I fix a problem with text wraps where Indesign wrapped text without overtighten the Alpha channel, I created?

    Hello.Indesign issue.png

    I have a text wrap the problem. I created an Alpha channel in Photoshop on a pic and placed in Indesign and wrapped text. Problem is that the text wrapping is quite different from the Alpha channel created. It's never happened before and I use it all the time. Ideas?

    Perhaps because the image is so low resolution.

The warning is headeed, 'Internet Explorer SEcurity' (with yellow shield on the side).

    The warning is a comon one "a website wants to open web content etc etc.

    I check the box "don't show me etc ' but it makes no difference. No matter what I do, it returns. The only way I can stop it is to completely uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in from the button tools etc. I also tried cancellation firewall temporarily.

    I tried tools > internet options > security, which seems to be the way logical to follow, but I couldn't understand the terminoligy of options, so I decided to not mess things up and left it as it was.

    This led me around the elbow, please, if someone can tell me what I need to do to stop this warning pop up all the time, please, tell me.

    I'm just starting to utiilize GREP a bit and tried to write an expression it would find two or more uppercase or upper case, lower case, upper case combination followed by a period such as. MD, PhD, FAAC. etc. I'm trying to find these instances and delete the period so that he says, M.D., Ph.d., FAAC etc.

    I came up with (\u\u|\u\l\u+)\. that works well, except that he also finds something with 2-3 letters at the end of a sentence, which I did not ' hold.

    I also used $1 in the change to box to capture phrases which seems to work very well as well.

    I really just do not find anything at the end of a sentence.

    Help! I'm running on Windows Vista.

    I know not ALL the technical features, and I'm really in a hurry to solve this problem, so I'm sorry for the low amount of detail.

    Well, anyway, I pressed the power to force the button stop and now my computer won't start. I should not have forced, but I was rushing to turn it off.

    It starts as normal watch the bar loading for a few seconds, the bar hangs for about a second and then it goes to the blue screen of DEATH. Sound blue screen, with text saying "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer", etc etc.

    Then, at the bottom, it says:

    Start your computer in safe mode

    Method 2:

    If you do not experience the problem in safe mode with any problem, you can perform a clean boot and check.

    In InDesign CS6, I have some images with text wraps invoked. They are on layers that are turned off, but text always behaves as if the images are there. Really. This is ridiculous.

  • How to make new bookmarks appear at the end of the toolbar of bookmarks instead of beginning?

    I drag the bookmarks toolbar to add the tabs. They appear at the end, but now they appear at the beginning. I can't find a setting to change it back. I tried an add-on called spacious bookmarks, but who did the same thing and does not have a setting to change also.

    The tab bookmark must be placed at the point where you drop it on the toolbar of bookmarks.

    Do you at least see the selection arrows when you are between two bookmarks?

    You can drag a link or tab or the globe/lock (the Site identity button) on the bookmark star or 'Show your bookmarks' move the bookmark button to open the drop-down list in the position where you want.

  • Why Thunderbird adds an A at the end of sentences when I save an email that I work on the drafts folder and then open it to work on it at a later date?

    Twice now I work on one e-mail then saved in the drafts folder to finish later and I supported then out of Thunderbird. From the opening of Thunderbird once more and goes to the open drafts folder and to work on the new Thunderbird email, the first time had added an A or an EA at the end of each sentence. I then had to go through the entire email to remove these letters. Today I saved a mail to the drafts folder, as before, and this time when I opened the e-mail again an A had been placed randomly at the end of some sentences, but not all. Yet once I had to go through the entire email and delete adding A I have not had a problem with Thunderbird that in the past. This has been the case during the past two weeks. I received a laptop computer and downloaded the latest version of Thunderbird on it, and it is the version that this happens with. I do not understand why the addition or the letters are added to the email. They are not something I typed in the email.

    I guess right, but sometimes, you can see an A type character when instead of an ordinary space, there is a space specially coded (and it is not decoding in a space of ugly).

    You type a space between sentences? If you type several spaces, it is possible that all but one of them could get specially coded because otherwise HTML will collapse into a single space.

  • Portege R111 - where is the 'END' button on the keyboard

    Hello

    I have a laptop Portege R111, model No. PPR11N-01KOK2.
    In the bios, I changed. The changes are applied to the key 'end '. Without changes to the ESC.

    This key 'End' I find it on the keyboard.

    Can someone tell me where the key on the keyboard?

    Thanks in advance,
    Dag

    This portable Portege is not known to me... He doesn't seem to be a European model for laptop so I did find many details on this unit... However, depends on the allocation of key keyboard keyboard language.
    On the keyboard of my computer laptop first END is located between the LED and PGDN (page down) button buttons.

    The other laptop supports another configuration of keyboard and the END key is placed between POS1 and PGUP buttons (previous page).

    Also I recommend you to check out the user manual too.
    Especially different keyboard layouts are described in operating manuals

  • write to the file at the end of the program

    I am trying to acquire data of resistance on a DAQmx channel. The data are acquired in a while loop.

    I need the program to keep storing data in a table that develops according to the incoming data and writes all data in a file when the program ends.

    I currently have an array of index with the iteration of the while loop wire its terminal index meter and a 'writing on a file of measure' vi placed outside the while loop. However, when I finish the program, there is no output file.

    What is the best way to do it in Labview 2011? If self-expanding table is not possible, can I pre-allocate a large size and I then it stores data but I'm going to have to again at the exit of all the data only once at the end of the program.

    Rather than build a huge range, using a configuration of producer/consumer .  The idea is to use a second loop that records your data that you acquire.  In this way, you can open the file before the loop, format and write the data to the file inside the loop, and then close the file at the end.  To send data to the loop of logging, use a queue.

    You can also use the DAQmx Configure in Streaming VI say DAQmx to save your data as it is read directly to a PDM file.  Much more effective than anything that you will come up with.

  • end of the year - cannot see the end of the year to close this window - is there a script to correct if I'm running an end of year after batches were posted for the new year?

    Hello to someone there is shiny armor!

    My name is Lynne and I have a few questions that I am struggling to solve

    I am running Dynamics GP 10.00.1368 that seems to be sp4

    When I try to open the sales year end closing screen (Tools > Routines > sales > year end close) nothing happens, even through I the end window of the year closing checked ADMIN_SALES_015 slot (period of the end of Sales Routines) for POWERUSER which is how I'm connected (his).

    I assumed (wrongly) that I would be able to address this issue at a later date after the end of June (end of the year our) so I allowed everyone back on the system and displays were held as usual. However, in reading several messages from various sources I have unfortunately starting to recognize I have a made a mistake here & missed the two boats at the end of year!

    I would really appreciate it if someone could: -.

    (a) advise on how I can get to see the end of year sales closing screen &

    (b) run a successful year for end of December 2011 end, then a end of year to end June 2012

    or to offer advice on the best way to address this issue. for example is there there a script that fills all the fields of LYR & CDA and LTD with correct figures once I "tell him" what the 'Calendar' and 'Financial' end of year dates were?

    I understand that buying and year-end sales routines are optional, but nevertheless I am pretty cross with myself for letting these routines lapse.

    If there is no cure here, it will take until the end of December and just close the calendar year then as normal and live with the fact that "Last year" will be two years ' worth of data?

    Should I seek to apply a new service pack / hotfix - I can't even my mind upward that, if all I should download and apply?

    Nothing is ever simple, unless maybe it's typing here!

    I know I asked a lot of questions and I thank you for taking the time to read this.

  • Pavilion M4C57UA Notebook: Windows 8.1 to 10 upgrade fails with an error code at the end of the treatment

    I tried to upgrade to Windows 10.  He went through the entire process, and after a reboot at the end he failed.  He sent this message:

    I searched in these conditions and could not find an answer.  My machine is new.  I have a lot on it did not install at all, thinking that it is better to wait until I got 10 Windows installed.

    Any ideas?

    "If you keep an open mind, life will give you more opportunities."

    No answers here.  Was not able to get a lot of help in other places online either.

    Finally, the "Get Windows 10" icon reappeared.  Apparently, Microsoft is mind boggling distribution.  I tried once more.  It seemed to go further this time.  But after an hour of treatment, I discovered that the system restored completely to 8.1.  Who does.  I'm done trying to upgrade.

    Honestly, all I see now about 10 Windows, I don't see any good reason to spend.  The missing "start orb" was an embarrassment, but I worked around it (shortcut keyboard is powerful, quick, so you can set "Programs" as part of Quick Launch toolbar").  It is easy to customize the interface of Windows 8.1, and it works reasonably fast without error.  I'll wait for Windows 10 has had a good year of validation by others before making the move, even if I miss out on the "free" update

  • issue tear the player 11 Windows Media - tracks have the end of the previous song.

    I seem to have bad ripper CD - when I select all the tracks and then click Start rip. They rip ok and have the correct names etc. However when I play the tracks a few of them have a minutes from the end of the previous track before then playing the song. Its done this to many CD and CD - r, to move I have Ripper each track on a CD individually which is really painful. How can I fix it, thank you.

    Hi HLouise,

    What is in my mind is the check-out settings. Make sure you only select the option to 5 seconds between songs.

    Alternatively, you can try to reload the encoder from the link below.

    You can download the Windows Media Encoder from here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5691ba02-e496-465a-bba9-b2f1182cdf24&displaylang=en

    Other that that, I suggest you post this question in the Windows Media Player forum.

    Hope this helps
