• Help with a script to search for text in a table cell and apply the cell style

  Hello

  I build the script which Jongware wrote in his post here http://indesignsecrets.com/tackling-tables-through-scripting.php - I am trying to create a variable in which I can add a number of different parts of the text, in this case it's different parts of the United Kingdom i.e. 'London', 'East', 'Scotland' etc. I just need the script to apply the cell Style - 'District Cell' - to any cell that contains text in the variable. Here's the script, if anyone can help I would be grateful.

  function checkWhichTable()
  {
  // ensure the user made a selection
  if (app.selection.length != 1)
  return null;
  var currentTable = app.selection[0];
  if (currentTable.hasOwnProperty("baseline"))
  {
  currentTable = app.selection[0].parent;
  }
  while (currentTable instanceof Cell || currentTable instanceof Row || currentTable instanceof Column)
  currentTable = currentTable.parent;
  if (!(currentTable instanceof Table))
  {
  // No table selected
  return null;
  }
  return currentTable;
  }
  app.doScript(checkUserSelection, ScriptLanguage.JAVASCRIPT, undefined, UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT, "Process Table");
  
  
  function checkUserSelection ()
  {
  var a_table = checkWhichTable();
  if (a_table == null)
  {
  if (confirm("No table selected. Do you want to process *all* tables?") == false)
  return;
  allTables = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().getElements();
  for (aTable=0; aTable<allTables.length; aTable++)
  {
  processTable (allTables[aTable]);
  }
  } else
  {
  processTable (a_table);
  }
  }
  function processTable(table)
  {
  // do something here!
  
  
  //Find Text in Cell and apply Cell Style
  var textInCell=['London', 'Scotland', 'South West'];
  for (i=0; i<table.cells.length; i++)
  {
  if (table.cells[i].texts[0].contents==textInCell)
  table.cells[i].appliedCellStyle = "District Cell";
  }
  
  
  
  
  }
  

  Hello

  Change this feature:

  function processTable(table)
  {
  //Find Text (exactly as it is) in Cell and apply Cell Style
  var
    textInCell=['London', 'Scotland', 'South West'],
    mFound, cFound;
  
  app.findGrepPreferences = null;
  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "^(" + cities.join("|") + ")$";
  mFound = table.findGrep();
  while( cFound = mFound.pop() )
    cFound.parent.appliedCellStyle = "District Cell";
  }

• Editing text in a table cell

  I have a set of option buttons three text list A B C text text in the row of the table, I have the default value defined in the text.  I also add a button to the table lines.  I can get the text to change in the first row to say text A text C etc but when I add a line of text does not change.  Is there a way to add lines and the text to line up with what has been chosen among the radio buttons? Hope this has meaning and any help on this is much appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  The problem is that when the new line is added, Acrobat adds a new instance of the default.

  If you want the cell to ALWAYS display the same data in all lines, the simpler approach it would be to establish the binding of this cell to Global (see object > range of binding).

  It should work,

• Spacing of text inside a table cell?

  Hello, I have a question!

  I am a newbie in Web design.

  I have a site which I use a tabular presentation to design anything.

  One problem, I just fell on is when I start to add text, it seems to be very close to the edges of my cells... I know that this cell spacing is fixed, BUT when I try to add the code to the specific cell, it does not work.  When I add the code for the entire table, the cell in question works properly, BUT then ALL my cells with spacing, which is just not good at all.

  I tried to add a table inside the cell, but cannot understand the.  Any help is appreciated.  Here is my site, so you can see a Visual.

  Opinion paragraph is at the limit of the line to the left... I need to push the text inside the cell with a space.  Thank you!

  Make sure that your swf file IS in your root folder, and then insert it.

  I don't know what version you saved the swf file to be compatible with, but you may need to download the most recent flash palyer to see. I don't have much experience with swf files, but I think you can save the sequence to be compatible with a range of pay earlier BECAUSE nobody's going to update their version of flash player to see your movie.

• Number of page of text in a table cell in the table that spans multiple pages.

  I have a very large catalog that I need to extract parts, price, and number of page numbers to.  The tables can be long from 1 to 35 pages.  I can locate text that I need to find in the table, but the page of the parent table is the table page begins.  Not the page the page the cell is in.  I need to find the page number of that particular cell.

  Hello

  I have attached the script to find the exact page of the object.

• access to table cells

  Hello

  Could someone please help me understand how to access the cells in a table (to do)?  I have a report with a table full of a channel.  In a column, it shows a list of names (which come from a channel).  I have another string with a list of colors and I want to associate each name in the table with a color of the second round. I tried unsuccessfully to access even a cell using D2TabRow and D2TabCol and the content...

  Any help is appreciated

  Thank you

  Hi Muskeg,

  Edna has sent two times it shows the only way to change the font of the text in individual table cells properties.  You create, save and call a UserCommand, so is not simple.  The main problem you use is that the table in the REPORT object does not generally contain cells.  If you happen to have chosen a column type in the 'list of text', then you can access the contents of individual table cells, but otherwise, your only options are to get and set the values outside the table that the table is referencing - be they channel values or the values of variables or expressions.

  The easiest option is to get/set of string values and assign each column of the table or row to display the channel values.

• How to set the vertical alignment of text in a table style

  I hope I'm missing something easy. I know how vertically and horizontally align text in a table cell.

  What I would do, is to be able to do as well in a style - section, object or character, it doesn't matter - so I don't have to do it manually to each cell in a table. I can't figure out how to put this in a style. Is it possible to do this?

  Thank you

  Marcy

  You create a cell Style. In a cell Style, you can set the vertical Justification on the text panel.

• Dreamweaver keeps adding an additional line in a table cell

  I'm not sure why this is happening, but for some weird reason, the second column of the first row of a table always has the text starts as if there is a blank line. I checked the code to see if something has been inserted by accident, but there is no break line or anything else between the td tag and text in my table cell. I checked the alignment and vertical alignment of the cell is set to "high".

  In the editor, everything seems normal. But once I go to see live or download the file on the web, the blank line appears in the second cell of the table.

  I think I found the problem. In Design mode in the properties box, a column has the value Format paragraph and the other was set to None. Unifying it on all of them seems to have solved the problem.

• How to apply the character style to table cell

  I'm sure it's basic, but I can't find any references on how to do it and my attempts have failed.  I use VB and CS5.5

  Basically what I'm trying to do is to select a table cell and apply a character like this style...

  MyCharacterStyle = myDocument.CharacterStyles.Add set

  myCharacterStyle.Name = "TH2".

  myTable2.Cells.Item (1) .appliedCharacterStyle = "TH2".

  with this code, I get a "object does not support this property or method.  myTable2.Cells.Item (...). appliedCharacterStyle ".

  I tried several other versions without success.

  Can someone tell me what would be the proper syntax to apply a character style to text in a table cell, or if it's still the right path to follow on that?

  I have to select the text in the cell rather than the cell itself, and if so, how do you do that?

  Thank you

  You do not need to select the text in the cell, but you need

  to target rather than the cell. It is true that in the user interface, you can

  Select the cell and apply a style of tank, but not with a script. Thus, in

  JavaScript is:

  myCell.texts.item (0) = .appliedCharacterStyle

  app.activeDocument.characterStyles.itemByName ("MyCharStyleName")

  It must be something similar in VB also.

  Of course, you can target the text in different ways:

  myCell.characters.everyItem () or myCell.paragraphs.everyItem () etc etc.

  but I think that the text is the most basic of the lot.

• Table cell text will not align Center

  Hello

  I have a table in a CS5 file in which the top row contains the column names. I have turned this text to 270 ° and want to align in the Center on the text in the column below (which is aligned Center). Vertical alignment is on the Center. Alignment of a paragraph is left I want the text to sit at the bottom of the row.

  When the columns are narrow enough that works OK but it does not work in larger columns; the text is always left of Center. Why is - it does not work as it should? As a matter of interest, I worked with some CS3 files where alignment is fine. When I open the CS5, however, as soon as I change the alignment will not.

  Thank you

  Your table cell is wider than it is tall? Then this is a known bug. It works fine as long as the height of the cell in the table is greater than its width. If it is wider, it aligns in a 'virtual square' (the sides equal at the height of the table cell). So if your table cell is 10 mm high and 20 mm wide, to 270 °-text align in a sqare 10x10mm. You can "fix" this behavior by adding a distance of 5 mm to the left and right of the table cell borders.

  Try to make the switch

  #mytable td

  Since this is the table cell that you really want to have this property.

• Site Web with graphics in a table bad text in the adjacent cell

  Part of my web page code is

       More text in the left

      </td>
     </tr>
    </table>
  and my style is
  <STYLE type="text/css">
  		<!-- TD {text-align: left; vertical-align: text-top; border: 1px solid black} -->

  The text in the left cell appears at the bottom of the cell and seems to avoid the vertical dimension of the chart.
