Change the case of the first character in the lists in InDesign CS6

Hello

I have a few long documents that contain lists that look like this:

  • Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, 195kgs Adipiscing elit
  • SED turpis elementum hendrerit lacinia lorem convallis
  • sed has nibh tortor non commodo lobortis sed felis.

Now I need to make the first character in each list of capital letters, IE:

  • Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, 195kgs Adipiscing elit
  • SED turpis elementum hendrerit lacinia lorem convallis
  • Sed has nibh tortor non commodo lobortis sed felis.

The problem is there is a CAP in the lists that must be maintained, and I can't create a list of exceptions (words to ignore).

Is it possible to change only the first character in the list in capital letters?

The lists are in style.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks :-)

Hello

This will make real ceiling, but it is not dynamic.  It could be made dynamic with an event listener, but it's probably not worth.

  • Cannot change the list of participants

    Thanks for responding. My role was that of the host. In any case, I'm finally able to change the list of participants. I was told that Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro is 'down' for a day or two, and it's probably why I couldn't change the list. It seems to be okay now.

  • How to change the list of bookmarks

    Where can I find instructions to change the list of bookmarks?

    You can change the bookmarks in the bookmarks (library) Manager.

    Just to be sure you understand how this works:

    • By clicking on the star in the toolbar navigation go to bookmark the page in the "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder and the star lights in blue to show that
    • Bookmarks > 'Bookmark this Page' (Ctrl + D) going to bookmark the page in the folder of bookmarks Menu (you will need to confirm that)
    • 'Bookmark this Page' is accessible via the context menu in the area through the bookmarks menu or navigation in the menu or Firefox menu button drop-down bar (Alt + B)
    • If the URL in the active tab is set bookmark and the star is highlighted blue and then click the star highlighted or use "Bookmark This Page/Edit this bookmark" (Ctrl + D) to change the properties of the bookmark as the name and the location and move the bookmark to another folder or delete the bookmark

    If your question is about - how to indicate whether or not an e-mail is sent to the junk e-mail folder-

    Your best bet would be to do it on the web portal of the email provider (e.g. for Yahoo it would mail.yahoo.com)

    There is usually a button or switch to designate mail "Junk" or "not junk".

    If your question is rather modify the list itself

  • Editable interactive report. To change the list column dropdown type filter.

    Hi all, I thought I had posted this, but I can't find my post, so apologies if it turns up to twice more...

    XE SUMMIT 4.2 11.2

    Ive created an editable interactive report... Everything works very well, and I have several Text, LOV and selection list columns...

    However when I now click on a column header to filter, sort etc drop-down list is the same format as the column itself. So if for example, I have a text box, then the drop-down list is also text boxes, if the column is a column LOV, the filter drop-down list is a list of fields LOV. (Im assuming this is correct behavior, because it simply inherits the column parent..)   So, I would change the lists to a list of standard display so that they are in order and can be used...

    I think so? I know I have to do, which is either to substitute the function that generates the dropdown filter... or probably more simply, write a bit of JS/JQuery that modify data for drop-down lists.  Im still to learn, some help would be appreciated...

    I think so. (and please correct me if I'm talkiing... garbage)   I need to find each of the appearance of the DIV with the ID that corresponds to the drop-down list box, and then loop through each entry and change the structure...

    Currently the source for drop-down fields resembles the following (for a text field...). :

    < div id = "apexir_rollover_content" >

    < a href = "javascript:void (false); ">

    < input type = "text" value = "24489" maxlength = size "2000" = "6" name = 'f06' > < / input >

    < /a >

    < a href = "javascript:void (false); ">

    < input type = "text" value = "N1021" maxlength = "2000" size = "6" name = 'f06' > < / input >

    < /a >

    < / div >

    How could I 1) browse each occurrence of div id = "apexir_rollover_content" on my page, so I found out about each other, how would I go through the list and change the line above an input to a standard list item text...? Or is there a simpler way to do it?

    Kind regards

  • How to change the font that indesign uses when no style is applied?

    All of my InDesign (CS4) models are now looking for [time (T1)] in odd places such as the spaces between words in a header, the space after the last period in a paragraph or a cache returns between paragraphs. I tried all the normal suggestions (verification of each character and paragraph including "standard paragraph" style, you select a font in the palette of charater with and without a document open and compensation even indesign preferences and cache files). After all this, I created a new blank document to test if that were to happen in something other than my model files. I'm not creating all styles at this stage, just called a text box and started banging. In the new document, the first line is in the police, I chose, but when I hit return called it at the time. It seems that after the return InDesign switches from the standard paragraph to "no style". Is there a way to change this default font or prevent the empty spaces and between paragraphs to turn to this setting? Thanks for your suggestions. With one file, it is not that big of a deal for find and replace, but when you start working with a book containing many files, it's rather painful to wade through the windows of missing to check what fonts is that and cannot not a real missing font.

    With no document open.

    Go the paragraph Styles Panel

    Clear Overides to standard paragraph

    Change the style

    And change of "next Style apply" to "[same Style]".

  • Rules move when changing the length of InDesign CS5

    Whenever I change the length of the rules in CS5, the rule will then proceed to jump all over the page. Is a simple adjustment I am on? Really slows down the workflow when you need to change a rule in length and then move the rule to where he was. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

    Who just sent a lightning bolt through my brain. Is the link beween the length and height fields? If this is the case, try to turn it off. The status of the settings in the control panel for 'Dimensions include srtroke weight' and "Adjust STROKE weight when climbing" can also come into play.

    A tip would be a factor, if you actually have the end caps, but race position (Center, inside or outside) could make a minor difference if time and whose weight dimensional scaling are enabled.

    It is also quite easy to accidentally move when selecting something, but I don't want that, since you say that change happens afer you type a number in the field of reduction.

  • How do I change the list box within a cluster

    I have a cluster with multiple controls in it. One of them is a combo box on which I need to occasionally change the items to the breast. If the drop-down list box out of the bunch, I could easily access 'Strings []' property of the combo box. However, when inside of the bunch, I don't seem to not be able to get this property. In the excerpt below, the drop-down list box is the control at index 1. I get out of the reference to this control, connect it to a 'property node' and the 'Strings []' property is not found.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello

    Take this simple way, create a node prperty for the cluster that you have, right-click on the prperty node and select link to, browse lists void until the drop-down list box. See attachment.
