• Help with a script that detects the content in a cell and apply the cell style to line

  Hello

  
  

  I am trying to add an article to my table formatting script that is a cell with the word 'Budget' (but this can be written as ' Budget:' or ' Budget: (E) "- but without the speech marks) and apply the cell Style - SponsorCells - to all the cells of the whole line. I currently have on what it will, but it does not work:

  
  

  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!
  
  
  //Set 1st Row Height
  table.rows[0].height = "30mm";
  
  
  //Find Text in Cell and apply Cell Style to Row 
  var  
    myCellText=['Budget', 'Budget:', 'Budget: (E)'];  
   var myRegEx = new RegExp("^("+myCellText.join("|")+")$");
    for (i=0; i<table.cells.length; i++)
    {
      if (table.cells[i].texts[0].contents.match(myRegEx))
        table.cell[i].appliedCellStyle = "SponsorCells";
    }
  
  
  //end - do something here!
  }  
  

  
  

  I can get the script to apply the cell style to "SponsorCells" for each cell that contain the word 'Budget' etc, but I need cell ever on this line to have the cell style applied. I tried to re-write line 56 which applies the style to a cell, but I can't seem to make it work. Any help would be great.

  
  

  Separate on this issue, I would like to have a line of code similar to the 46 line, which sets the 1st height of lines, but I would like to say "If a cell has 'A cell Style' and then applies the value height 10 mm". If someone could result as a help of bonuses, things would be great double.

  
  

  Thanks in advance!
  

  But that could be painfully slow. To speed things up, follow these steps:

  var cells = table.cells.everyItem().getElements();
  for (var i=0; i
  It is faster, because it creates an array of cells with a call to table.cells, which is several times faster than calling table.cells. And before assigning to line 12mm height is useful to check if it is already 12 mm. checking things in InDesign and do things only when it is necessary is much more effective than simply doing things even if they are not necessary.

• The default value of the cell reference to preserve columns and lines in function number 3.6.1

  I use:

  3.6.1 the numbers

  OSX 10.11.1

  For clarity: afterwards, I use the term 'address of the cell' is the name of the Table, the numbers of row and column that is used to specify a particular cell. Please let me know if there is a name for this.

  Am new on numbers and you want to create a database with two tables whose most variables in "Table 2" are determined by entries in 'Table 1' and vice versa. I use the functions to set up these relationships; However, it is not an obvious geographic relationship between the output in table 2 cell address and the address of the entry in table 1 cell, so I want the address of the cell called in any default function to "Preserve line - True" and "Preserve column - True" still, but don't be found anywhere to set this parameter. Is this possible?

  Thank you in advance your help.

  All the best,

  RA

  It is possible that you are trying to do things with numbers for which it is not designed. It's really good at crunching numbers, but this isn't a database program. If you look at the models in file > New in your menu, you will find good examples of use of numbers. To enter formulas usually you don't have to make a lot of seizure of addresses. You type = activate the formula editor, and then click the cell you want to reference. Numbers then inserts the address for you.

• Cell styles missing cell styles in the palette

  Last Friday, I have created a table style and a certain number of cell styles & part of my starting indesign setting initial and included as part of a document and a document template.

  This morning (Monday) when I open Indesign, I noticed my cell styles palette was empty - there is nothing listed here or selectable somehow. Yet the range of styles of table shows the table that I created and when I look at that I noticed that all cell styles, that I created. More later if I try to edit a cell style in the style of table the list and I would select all cell styles that I created last week even though they do not appear in the palette cell styles.

  I tried to delete Indesign Defaults and AppPrefs.xml nothing works. I tried to create new cell styles, but they disappear immediately after creation - the palette remains empty cell styles. I tried to import the model & document styles that I created last week - nothing. I tried to export my model to IDML & reopening; still no go. I checked all paragraph and character styles used by the cell styles and they are present. Nothing seems to work.

  Has anyone else encountered and/or solved this problem?

  Hi again Peter.

  Not sure if it will work or not because I discovered a solution to the problem just before reading your response. When I clicked on the dual turns up and down the arrow on the tab name range to force the palette to expand & contract cell styles suddenly reappeared. As an additional measure, I just went and deleted the file SavedData so just in case where it was corrupted and would create other problems. Problem seems to have been resolved

• Is it possible to adjust the height of the cell in a cell style?

  In the attached screenshot, the cell height is set to 0.125 exactly. I put my cursor in the cell, and then open the Panel styles of cell and created a new cell style based on the cell. But when I apply the cell style to other cells, it does not live up to cell. There are no substitutions or other styles are applied to other cells. I also opened the cell style definition in the Panel style of cell but don't see anywhere to set the cell height there either. Is there another way to do this that I'm missing?

  It is possible - and it's pretty simple.

  To set the height of row in the cell style, all you have to do is to use the insert of the cell above and below. As long as you set the style as "At least" then it works perfectly well for having predefined cell styles.

  I used it with success of large financial documents for a while without any hitches. For example, I use it to get the separation between the sections of the tables having a style with extra space above, and similarly for the totals at the bottom of the table lines. It can apply of course also different contour styles at the same time. Having the style defined as 'At least' also allows multiple line entries to still have the correct spacing above and below.

  So if you spend a little time of calculation required heights and to set up your styles, then apply a keyboard shortcut to each style, you can then save a lot of time during the formatting of the document.

  I just finished nearly 400 pages of financial tables using this method on the last two days!

  This solution may be suitable for your situation, but if you have a large number of tables to get through, he happened to be useful to give it a try.

• Tame the table and cell styles

  I find table styles and cell styles to be quite a nightmare in InDesign - in other words, as long as the paragraph style is included in the definition of the cell style. The only way I could get a table without substitution involves the steps as much as it is not effective:

  1) click an empty paragraph.

  (2) apply the paragraph style.

  (3) type the text that will come eventually in a table cell. (All my paintings are a cell, a column tables).

  (4) select the text without selecting the symbol of paragraph at the end.

  (5) choose table > convert text to table.

  I would be very happy if anyone knows of a script that can do these steps and can put me out of my misery.

  (Or maybe is there a way to avoid cell style replacements that I did not discover. (There was a discussion on this problem to http://forums.adobe.com/message/2043634#2043634, but none of the suggestions got rid of substitutions of paragraph style cell.)

  Hi jay

  You should check the character styles. If paragraph styles will not be on the trip, I found that it is because it applies a character style. Some people use styles to the paragraphs format characters. (?!)

  If code should target a specific range of rows in the table.

  That is like this:

  var

    mTables = mDoc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().getElements(),
    rowsToOmit = 1,     //     how many rows to exclude

• Right aligned and then centered in the cell of the table - indesign cs 5

  Hi all

  Does anyone know how can I get the numbers right aligned, so the zeros are all below the other. And then the center of the table cell.

  I use a paragraph style is aligned to the right. This is the paragraph defining the cell style.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Mau

  InDesign CS5

  You can set the position of the tab within the paragraph style, so no, you do not need to edit each cell, but you do not have to use the text aligned to the left, and if you want that all the place line numbers correctly you need to use a font with tabular, rather than numbers proportional to make them all the same width (and for tables rather than oldstyle figures is probably also a better choice).

  When you look at the tabs formatting options that you have left, right, centered and aligned decimals (which can be any character of your choice, but you want the period). When you use the decimal tab aligned, everything you type will behave as if the tab is a tab that is aligned to the right - it will start at the position of the tab and move to the left with each additional character - until you type the character that you chose for the alignment. From there text will move to the right of the alignment. This aims to make things like the columns of numbers with decimals.

  In a table, the tab character is implied, so if the only thing in the cell is your setting of the tab in the style number is sufficient and it will work just as soon as you start typing. If there is other text before alignment numbers that must be the left hard, however, you will need to type, then manually insert a tab in the menu Insert special characters (or create a new shortcut key to insert tabs in tables) to force the text to the left margin and keep the numbers aligned on the decimal point. You can't just hit tab within a cell to add the tab - it reports ID to pass to the next cell.

• How can I apply a new style with an excerpt and DW artifact of the old style?

  Hello

  I use Dreamweaver CS5 in Windows XP SP3. My problem seems simple, but the resolution remains elusive.

  Let's say I'm stuck-in editing the text in MS Word that DW auto-formaté. I highlight text and use a clip to attach the text of the h2.

  Rather than delete the old style and its replacement by h2, DW applies the h2, but copy the old style, enclosing nothing and it bumps to the next line. If the old style included a paragraph tag, which flows into the extra space. For anything.

  Now, this seems to be a minor thing, but it is not so little, when you try to quickly prepare a large document with different header styles. Having to make dozens of changes that, in my view, should be completely useless becomes a burden.

  Is it possible to attach some text in a new style with an excerpt without the old style of stick around?

  Thanks for all the answers!
