Find hyperlinks

While, I'm not clear lack...

I don't see any easy way to check the hyperlink to specific text. (i.e. text.hyperlinks - or what-have-you)

Before you start writing a function very complicated and expensive to check if the text is a hyperlink, and what it is; am I missing something?

Substances

Impossible in JavaScript.

If you were using AppleScript:

Tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"

say an active document

the value monarticle history 2

text of the hyperlink get sources whose parent history of source text is monarticle

end say

end say

  • [JS] Find hyperlinks in a text block

    Is there a way I can easily, given a block of text, find what links have their SourceTexts inside this block of text, or overlapping it?

    The only way I could think of was to loop through all the hyperlinks in the document and then check to see if any character in their SourceText = any character in the text block, we are looking.  Seems a bit pointless to me.

    I would like this:

    Step 1: check the history of each hyperlink source. If the story is not one that you control, throw it away.

    2. check the index to sources on the left. If the index is higher at the beginning of your text and less of late, it is within your reach.

    This should be very fast...

    Hello

    I'd look for destination.parent .

    Be the destination could be a:

    ParagraphDestination
    HyperlinkURLDestination
    HyperlinkTextDestination

    HyperlinkPageDestination

    HyperlinkExternalPageDestination

    and the parent is always a document object.

    Then he must unravel, whether or not it is your active document.

    Search for document.fullName in the documentation of DOM and Hyperlink.destination DOM documentation.

    To compare I would use File(Hyperlink.destination.parent.fullName) .fullName and do a comparison of strings , because document.fullName is a file object and I don't think you can compare a file object to another file object directly. Maybe I would also check if the File.isValid. Could well be, he hasn't.

    Sorry, no time to write and test some don't code for this right now.

    Some links to the documentation for DOM:

  • I'm looking for links Hypertext in find/replace the dialogue (without applying a character style).

    I have 7000 hyperlinks in my document, with different character styles ("italic", "bold" and "italic +"BOLD""). I need to apply the blue color to each of them. If I ask a new character style "hyperlink" to all, I'll lose my formatting.

  • In CC 2015.4 I can not find my trusty option 'New Destination of the hyperlink'

    Hello

    Please see the screenshot below.

    The updating of CC 2015.4, suddenly the option 'New Destination of the hyperlink' which appears in my context menu under "Interactive" simply disappeared. In general, I surligner highlight the text in the frame, then right-click on it to reveal the menu, then scroll to the "Interactive" submenu and select 'New Destination of the hyperlink' (see the part CS6 2014 screen captures below). I do then highlight a text anchor Tech. Finally, I select other text in the document and make a hyperlink to anchor text, I just created. I now spent 90 minutes in the options of CC 2015.4 trying to find these (or new?) to create a new destination for the hyperlink (a text anchor), with no chance inside the app (even impossible to find another way to do it) and no luck on online forums. Anyone can solve this for me?

    Thank you

    It is in the hyperlinks Panel menu. It is in the Panel menu cross-references.

    It is missing from the context menu (someone forgot it?)

    You can add a keyboard shortcut: Edit > keyboard shortcuts > product area: Panel Menus > links: New Destination of the hyperlink.

  • Find/replace in the hyperlinks?

    Background:

    I'm working on an academic paper of the Word conversion to ePub. There are hundreds of hyperlinks in the document.

    Export to ePub fails, and after research, I see that the problem is ampersands in hyperlinks 151. (by ) http://www.pigsgourdsandwikis.com/2010/07/hyperlink-causes-InDesign-export-to.html ).

    I used Find to find all ampersands when the character style is the hypertext link and replace it with (p-twentysix) 26%.

    Export to ePub still does not work. After you change the partial XHTML file, I see that search and replace is change the text displayed in the hyperlink, but it does not change the actual link stored in the hyperlinks Panel.

    Or, for another way, the State is the text that appears in InDesign http://www.site.com/ %26 foo.html, but the text that appears in the hyperlinks Panel is always http://www.site.com/ foo.html &

    Question:

    Is there a way to:

    -change overall an ampersand stored in the hyperlinks?

    or

    -InDesign to modify the hyperlink to the current text of the force

    I tried the convert URL of command hyperlinks, but it seems that this only affects the URL that isn't already hyperlinks

    Thanks in advance

  • How can I find and change text in hyperlinks?

    I have 6000 hyperlinks in my paper, I need to change all the '&' they contain (in the destination url, not in the textflow) to "% 26" so I can export to Epub correctly (I get the classic "Export failed" and found in the forums that the ampersands in hyperlinks are the problem). "

    This replacement can be automated? Perhaps with Javascript? I don't know how to find just through hyperlinks (url) text.

    Thank you very much.

    Wow, I feel like I'm on a roll today. See my earlier post in being added at the end of the carriage return URL hyperlinks, but change the expression to replace:

     hls[i].destinationURL = hls[i].destinationURL.replace(/&/g,"%26");
    

    You need the/g to indicate "global", that is to perform multiple replacements within a single string (URL).

    Still not tested however!

  • AppleScript to create the thumbnail of the file selected with hyperlink to the URL of the file

    Hello

    I need an AppleScript script to copy to the Clipboard a thumbnail of a selected file (s. picture 1 below) with a hyperlink to the URL of the selected file.

    I have a script that allows me to get the URL of the file and copy it to the Clipboard. But then I have to paste the URL into my Document, back to the finder, make a screenshot of the thumbnail of the file, paste this screenshot and enter the URL (manually copy) of the file (choose the context menu of the image) (s. image 2 below):

    Is there a way to automate this?

    I could do the screenshot manually, this is actually no problem, but then I would need to attribute this screenshot on a Clipboard 1, go back and get the URL of the file and attribute it to Clipboard 2 and then go to my document and paste Clipboard 1 first, chose the menu popup "hyperlink" and the Clipboard paste 2.

    I would be grateful for the help!

    Kai - Uwe

    Kai - Uwe,

    OpenOffice or LibreOffice aren't outwardly scriptable with AppleScript or Automator, as to exclude these two applications that support. They are inwardly Python scriptable via their respective SDK.

    I became aware of a solution of AppleScript that invites for the input file, then uses a custom (port) application that uses QuickLook to generate an image thumbnail jpg to your specified output destination. I added a line of AppleScript that sends the URL of the file to the Clipboard.

    After running the script, I can paste the URL of the document in LibreOffice and follow by drag and drop the jpg thumbnail afterwards.

    Do you want me to post the directions for this solution. In its current form, it is not written for processing batch.

    Is this really not available in numbers function, or the instructions are well hidden?

    Firefox has crashed repeatedly, uninstall and reinstall doesn't allow some hyperlinks work on web pages... Help?

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
