  • Automatically place a marker on a graph

    How can I automatically place a "marker" on a XY Chart? I want to emphasize a few points on the graph have been other events take place.

    I would like to place a marker and a note at this point as "X happened here" and "Z happened here" that the graph is generated.

    The table is exported to an image at the end and it is given to clients who are interested when these events occurred.

    According to me, you want a 'slider' not a 'marker '. Check out the property "Cursor List" of the "XY graph", discovered by the terminal of the graph right click block diagram and by selecting "Create" and then "property Node" then "list of cursor. This allows you to read or write all of the sliders of the chart. If you have the sliders created by the user already that you are not able to play with, first read the "cursor" list (read Scripture can be selected by right-clicking the property that you want to change and selecting 'Change to Read' and 'Change to write' respectively), then add your new cursor in the table using insert into table or build table (insert into is my favorite). The "Cursor List" property is an array of clusters giving you the ability to define more than information on the slider you probably you have always wanted, including or not display the text on the slider, text for the center of color, position xy etc... Let me know if I can be more useful.

  • Script for automatic placement of several text files?

    An editor I work with is slowed by a change to their workflow. Maybe there's a whole script for help? I looked but can not find, so I post here.

    Old workflow: Designers would be "automatic formatting" a single Word doc with all the preliminary pages (sometimes > 10 sections of diff.) and chapters and endnotes in a model book.

    New workflow: The Word doc is now divided into 30-40 InCopy files, always destined to a single InDesign layout doc (The InCopy files were created from a Word doc marked by a different system, so that they are all new to the InDesign user.)

    Y at - it a script which, according designers load a square slider with 30-40 (in the right order) files, which will allow them to simple-click on page 1, and InDesign will place one after the other files, autoflowing necessary? They still need them to be placed in individual InCopy files (so would not help concatenate Prime). I don't think that there is never a case of 2 stories being on the same page.

    Thank you

    Hey AnneMarie,

    This script allows you to select a bunch of files and will try to place them, one by one, in your InDesign document. It will be auto-flux them according to the needs (but be careful because standing in excess of problems - because the script does not test for this).

    I tested with a lot of property, but not with InCopy files because I did not. If they are adjustable as Word documents, the script must run end.

    Let us know if everything works correctly for you.

  • Graph of the place in the framework

    Hi all.

    To this day, I simply placed the items directly in indesign, resized according to the needs and here I am.

    However, I have now created a shadow advanced in photoshop effect I want to use with all the graphics I import.

    So I created a component of library with this shadow on the back and a framing rectangle on top, I told the frame to insert the content itself.

    Here is where I am getting confused, I think. I now select this image and then press 'place' but it does not match the content or whatever it is, it completely replaces the framework. If during import I say he does not have too, it presents the traditional small graphic on loan to place the pointer of the.

    So in essence how place the graphic in this framework to adapt?

    I tried the google search, but a lot of answers but in google to start with where find goto clicked on a page of adobe archieve that did not google.

    I just tried to do that and it's working here, but you must set the frame mounting options for an empty block in the dialog box, fitting > frame fitting Options... it is not enough to select the frame empty and select an option from the list in the menu.

  • Waiting for automatic placement at the end.

    Hello

    I have a simple script that puts a BCTI file in a textframe and then saves the document.

    The target document is set to "automatic formatting" the happy ICML, and it creates pages as needed. It works very well.

    However the save operation does not wait for the autoflow finish. If the saved document has a page with overset text.

    It must have 2 pages and any overset text.

    If I leave the page open in InDesign, after a very short time, a new page is added, and the text is autoflowed.

    How can I get InDesign to wait for the "automatic formatting" after the operation before you save the file?

    Script:

    myDocument var = app.activeDocument;
    myPage var = myDocument.pages.item (0);
    var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.itemByName ("mainBody");
    myTextFrame.place (File ("page1.icml"));
    myDocument.save (File ("document1.indd"));

    Thank you.

    You probably want to remove the idle task, once completed. To set the sleep on 0:

    gDocsToSave = [];// Add docs that need to be saved to this array.
    var task = app.idleTasks.add({sleep:100});
    task.addEventListener(IdleEvent.ON_IDLE,saveDocs);
    
    function saveDocs(ev){
         var doc;
         while(doc = gDocsToSave.pop()){
              doc.save();
         }     ev.target.sleep = 0;}

  • Automatic placement with IDML

    I am writing a VB program to convert a text file to an IDML file. I started by generating a a page, page 8-1/2 "x 11 in InDesign with 1" margins on all four sides. I have a block of text on this page. I saved the file to the IDML format, unzipped with package.bat and use this set of files XML as a model, where I basically replace the file in the history with the file converted in my program and then he zip with package.bat to create a new IDML file.

    What I have a problem, namely is how automatic text formatting. I added the following attributes to the element TextPreference in Preferences.xml:

    AutoPageDeletion = "true" AutoPageInsertion = "AtEndOfStory" EnableDynamicAutoflow = "true".

    However, they do not seem to do anything. Any suggestions? Thank you!

    As the said substances, these settings are applied just like document preferences. So, if you were to open your IDML document in InDesign, and then importing text, he would obey the settings that you had specified.

    However, if you want to succeed with your strategy, you need to be responsible for creating additional pages, as well as blocks of text through which history must elapse. It may be easier to say that since your process may not easily be able to determine how many additional pages is necessary.

    You might consider a script approach to 'clean up' the document once it is finally open in InDesign or InDesign Server...

    You must may (or may not) .NET Framework 1.1.

    Of http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2009/04/20/9557946.aspx

    Most of the applications that have been created for the .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1 will automatically use the .NET Framework 2.0 instead if it is installed on the system.  In most cases, this means that you do not need to keep the .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1 is installed on your system if you have already installed .NET Framework 2.0.

    However, there are some applications that are configured to require a specific version of the .NET Framework, even if later versions of the .NET Framework installed.  If you have any application like this on your system and try to run without having to install the .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1, you will get an error message that resembles the following:

    ---------------------------
    MyApplication.exe - .NET Framework initialization error
    ---------------------------
    To run this application, you first must install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework:
    v1.1.4322
    Contact your application Publisher for instructions about obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework.
    ---------------------------
    Ok
    ---------------------------

    In the above error message, the version number will be v1.0.3705 if you install the .NET Framework 1.0, and it will be v1.1.4322 if you need to install .NET Framework 1.1.

    If you end up seeing error messages like this one, you can re - install the .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1 in order to fix the errors.  If you end up seeing errors like this, then you don't need to worry about re - install the .NET Framework 1.0 or 1.1.

This operation fails with the following error message: "TypeError: null cannot read property 'vimHost' (Workflow: set the properties of network NIC for VIM 3 cloning operation / Set network (item4) #3).

    Hi ranpman,

    Can you check in the VCO Configurator (http://:8282) section Plugins if "Cache 1.1.0" plugin is installed and activated. Basically, the reason for this error message CacheManager is absent or not activated the plugin Cache.

  • Place with autoflow file

    I want to place a set of RTF files in a new document (created within my VB.NET program) with the following statement, so the text in each file follows the previous text in a connected chain:

    CType (BodyFrame.ParentStory.InsertionPoints.Item (-1), InDesign.InsertionPoint). Place (ImportFilePath)

    How to make it to the automatic placement of the text? For now he stops at the bottom of the text frame on the first page (only defined in the document) and entitles the red box of overset text in the bottom corner of the text block.

    If I use the method of location of the page, there is an optional parameter to specify the text of "automatic formatting", but the method of location of text frame has this optional parameter.

    Thank you!

    Hi Dan,.

    Also I am not able to set primaryTextFrame property of master spread, this seems to be a bug.

    But for your workflow, you can choose workarounds as defined either property of frame for the main text of the application as true so that new documents have primary text frame in it.

    app.documentPreferences.createPrimaryTextFrame = true


    Another is if you don't specifically want to reflow text smart to work only with the primary text block then you can activate for text blocks normal uncheck "limits to the primary text blocks."

    app.activeDocument.textPreferences.limitToMasterTextFrames = false

    Thank you

  • How can't we first place the drive working on the "even as a project" folder "

    I start a project by resetting the parameters of the default disc 'even as a project' streak (which is on my 'G' drive) to another hard drive, where I always stored by default on CS3 (the "D" drive). I've never had to redo my "scratch disks" when I created a new project in CS3. Now, I need to redo every time. If I open an older project in CS5 it automatically places all the files work on drive g. drive how can't we first place all information from disk to work on drive G before I open an older file? At the point where I'm ready to change the location, first has already begun to save disk work on the incorrect disk information.

    However, I have a related problem. When I import an older project to nest in a new project, the disks scratch mysteriously change up the D drive, where I put the 'G' drive up. Finally, I discovered this when I reopen it the project and all the previews were gone, and he had failed on the G drive.

    "Even in the project" is simply the default value.  Don't forget that CS5 is not read the old CS3 setting.  In CS3 is was a global setting.  It's a project parameter in CS5.  Things have changed between versions.  So it won't matter what it has been set for in CS3, CS5 will use the default value to this amended manually.
