Can I have a paragraph style begins with a text variable?

Don't know if this is possible, but here's what I would do: I work on a catalogue of the tooling and at the end of each product description is a paragraph that begins with APPLICATIONS: and lists of what the tool can be used on.  I created a style of separate paragraph for this that includes a nested style so that the word is "BOLD".  What I was wondering is if there is automatically a way to have the word ' APPLICATIONS: ' appear when this paragraph style is applied.  A bit like a text variable.  I hope this makes sense.  I use CS4, by the way.

Thank you

Give the paragraph style, the property numbered list and instead to use placeholders numberic, type in "APPLICATIONS:"precede the paragraph you want.» Google search for "indesign tutorial of numbered list" and similar phrases without quotation marks for more details.

  • Can I have a paragraph (not an image) upside down?

    Is it possible to create a paragraph style that makes the text go backwards? I do not mean a block of text that goes in reverse or mirror, but just aparagraph running backwards text.

    I was going to suggest using the scale to do this, but when I tried ID politely informed me that negative values are not allowed, so I think the answer is that you need to put in this text it of own framework and use it as an anchored object, which means it won't break across pages or columns.

  • How can I force a paragraph style without losing the italics?

    This has been annoying me for ages. I work on documents in Word, using italics for book titles, etc. and then import them into indesign. I apply a paragraph style and three out of four times the bits in italics are preserved. However, the fourth time the paragraph style does not (probably due to the presence of italics) and I have to force him to do it using Alt-click. Invariably, the italics is replaced by Roman.

    It happens earlier with a bunch of notes and endnotes in a book, I'm working on and means I have to go back through each of them, manually applying italics to my books and reference titles. Is it possible to force a paragraph of note/reference style without losing the text in italics?

    Thanks for your suggestions,

    Tom.

    I'm not sure that long-term planning is needed here.

    If your only concern loses italics when importing from Word, create,.

    in InDesign, an italic character style. Then do a search and replace

    in the document, InDesign (once you have placed the Word file)

    looking for an italics, formatting and replacing with your italics

    character style.

    Who will save you from losing your italic formatting.

    Repeat for bold, bold italic, exponent, index and nothing else

    the author uses.

    There are scripts that help in this process (I think one of them is

    called "preptext", by Jongware).

    If you want a complete solution that can be found all types of

    override setting in shape and creates and applies the appropriate character

    style, check out my script "create character the Styles of overrides him."

    available on the script on freelancebookdesign.com tab.

  • Can I remove paragraph styles while leaving the text as it is?

    I have the text that was somehow connected to a paragraph style that is not the right model. I need to change this style of paragraph... but I don't want this other text to change (which is what's happening). I tried to rename the style of the text I want to preserve as is, but even that changes the text. How can I leave the text as it is, but have no style paragraph related? I use InDesign CC on an iMac.

    Thank you!

  • How can I edit a paragraph style in the Muse?

    Is it possible to change a font or other details in a paragraph in Muse style sheet? I tried to reproduce the style, and then, when I delete an old, I replace it with a new one. Is there a more direct way to do?

    Hello

    If you create a paragraph style, and then change to any attribute, the style has a substitution. If you want to keep this substitution and redefine style click the button to "redefine the selected style of attributes" (highlighted in the screenshot).

  • XP host does not have any file that begins with "VM".

    Problem of crazy that I can't understand.  Under XP Pro SP3 on a desktop computer and try to install VMPlayer 3.01.  If I try to run the file that I downloaded I get a warning that "this application has failed to start because the application configuration is incomplete.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. "This exact file installs without problem on my XP Pro laptop.

    Here are the best, if I rename the file, so it does NOT begin with "VM", it will install.  But then if I try to turn on a guest operating system, I get an error because the other files that start with "VM" are started and fail.  If I rename notepad.exe to vmnotepad.exe it will not work!

    I uninstalled VMplayer and tried again with the same results.  I even tried a few VMware cleaner utility but no change.

    Any ideas?  Thank you.

    I fear that the evil is already due to 5 questions.

  • Clicking on a paragraph Style does not apply text Style

    I just switched from a PC to a whole new MacBook Pro (OS x 10.7 Lion), and InDesign CS5.5 bought. I use CS4 on a PC for a few years and had no problems. For some reason, I can't apply Styles to paragraph by moving my cursor in the text and clicking the paragraph style. It highlights the style clicked for a while and then goes to value all styles, but does not apply the changes. The only way I can apply a Style of paragraph right now is click with the right button on the style and selecting 'apply... '. "in the menu dropdown. It is very curious. I was wondering if anyone had experience with this. I also have Microsoft Office: Mac 2011 installed on the laptop, if it makes a difference to anyone. Any help would be greatly appreciated, since I dial and change my life, and this problem slows me down a bit.

    Right on any of the third party plug-ins. It was actually 'good Zoom '. A third-party application that corrects some native zonky zoom behavior for Mac. I disabled it, and it has cleared up the problem. It's pretty strange, however, isn't it? Thanks for your help!

  • Apply the paragraph style instead of runned text simply by clicking on the text box

    I'm changing the style of the text entity. Is there another way to change it to select all the text, and then set the style?

    Capture.JPG

    IT is threaded text block (not a box!) you have to select all the blocks of text at a time in the thread (which is impossible if they are on different spreads) or you must select all of the text to apply a style.

    If the text block is not passed, you can select and apply the text.

    I do not see a problem to select all the text. Use the text tool, click in the text and the cmd/ctrl + A and apply the style. Not a problem, not a lot of work.

    A box is something like BleedBox, CropBox or something like that. Objects in InDesign are still frames or paths.

  • Choice of notification tones. Can I have different those e-mail messages and text?

    If I can, how to I set up?  Thank you Super droid users.

    You change the ringtone for an application in the application settings.  Open the app, go to settings and find the ring setting.  You can change this in the email app and in the SMS applications.  You can even have a different one for each e-mail account.  With Handcent you can have a different view for each contact as well.  The thing to remember is that you must go in the settings of the application, no system of parameters.  If you need to know the specific steps for a specific application, just list the applications that you need help, and I can give you the steps so I'm familiar with it.  I hope this helps.

  • chips and paragraph style in the Hebrew text problem

    Hello

    This looks like a bug. We will fix it in the next public release. In the meantime, you need to specify the meaning to the elements of the list directly instead of using a paragraph style.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    I don't understand this part. Maybe you don't mind developed.

    Do a system restore. Pick a date before that happen as your restore point.
    Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
    To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

  • Need help with the text variables

    I have a directory to which is more than 300 pages long.

    Each entry begins with a photo in a built-in framework shaped like a cat fall, followed by a space en dash and then the name, company, address, e-mail, etc.. Essentially, we have a photo hanging to the left and on the right information.

    The name is the last name in capital letters, first name and middle name propercase. I've defined a character style "Dict Head" and used in a paragraph style as style nested through 3 characters.

    Then, I defined a two text for the instance variable first and last instance on the page of the character style "Dict Head". I have a hyphen between the two variables (the goal is at the head of the race be "AAR - ABE," for example). The application, however, includes space en with three letters.

    I did a GREP search for space en with the applied character style and replaced it with himself, and < None > character style applied and which does not seem to get rid of. My current title looks like this " AAR - ABE." With invisible on I see the en space is still there.

    I deleted the text variables, exported a. File INX, opened soft and recreated the text variables and the spaces are still there.

    I'm open to suggestion.

    Ken

    It seems ID brings together up to three regular characters with which nesting style... (Okay - just tried and the original en-space is also considered to be a 'character' for this number of three.) No matter what... read more, please)

    You can not delete a character with your search and replace nested style. Try it - ID can be found but not change it to [anything].

    Possible workaround would be to not use the style nested to mark the names and put the character marker using a GREP search and replacement style.
