"Floating" text / graph framework question

Working on a Church Directory design and I have a question. I have over a hundred images on a large number of pages. Is there a way to design where each pane of content (using blocks of text currently) is floating? So say someone with the last name of Anderson is added later, I don't have to move all the entries of a table or move more than 100 text frames? In my head, I should be able to have a lot of "floating" images, and if I add a new image between two of them, everything will move accordingly.

Not a crazy idea, but I don't know where to start with it.

Thanks in advance for anyone who has any ideas!

With the help of my CS4 Master Collection on a Windows machine i7, but that shouldn't matter for this.

Discover objects anchored in the help files. You will want to consolidate your cpations and fremes for each person, and then add the group as an inline object embedded in a text frame where him consists of the history essentially these entrenched groups, with little space added between the two. They will sink as text when you add or remove one.

  • Floating text within the text

    QUESTION: What is the best way to float a box of text within a paragraph of text, such as the floating text does not appear at the top of the paragraph containing?

    BACKGROUND

    (1) I know not how how to float an image captioned with a < p > tag floating at the top of a paragraph (see http://homepage.mac.com/moogoonghwa/practice/CSS/floatedImageInParagraph.html), and

    (2) I know how to float a letter inside a < span > or semantic HTML tag at the top of a paragraph of text (see http://homepage.mac.com/moogoonghwa/practice/CSS/firstLetterOfParagraph.html).

    This time, I want to float a paragraph of text inside another paragraph of the text so that it does not appear at the top of the paragraph. I examined three possibilities:

    The < span > tag
    This option seems preferable, because it is online, and the floating text always appears at the same place in the container < p > tag. I fear, however, that this approach would limit the ways in which I could put in the form the text inside the < span > tag, I could put a tag < p > in a < span > tag, for example? If I remember correctly, the answer is no.

    The < p > tag
    Using the < p > ensure that floating text always appears in the same place in the flow of the document. It would also format text "embedded" in a variety of ways. Unfortunately, it would necessarily be split the paragraph containing two paragraphs.

    The < div > tag
    Although this tag may organize the text incorporated in anyway that I wanted, I fear that this would cause disturbances in the paragraph that contains text similar to that of an inserted [p] tag.

  • How can I add text floating to a clip? (not a title, floating text that can be moved)

    How can I add floating text? Or is it possible to move the title autour text, how do I do?

    If you can not get the desired effect using the scrolling credits, the Far Far Away or the titles of Ticker,

    the only way that I can think is to create a file with the text you want on a green or blue (outside of iMovie) and put it above a green or blue background element in the timeline panel.  You can then use the image in the photo installation and creation of keyframes to move the text on the background.  See http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.1/#/mova1aaa682b for more details.

    Share/export this file, then import the file and place it above your video clip.  This time, use the blue/green screen so that the text appears on top of your video.  See http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.1/#/mov82da1338a for more details.

    Bulky, but should work.

  • Can not (hold) place an image or an object in front of text on a question slide (Captivate 8)

    Why can I not (do) place an image or an object in front of text on a question slide (Captivate 8)?

    Organize is grayed out:

    Capture.JPG

    Sometimes, I managed to have objects on top (see link below), when having the object on the slide before the object, what to put in for the rest of the project, always display on top. But this workaround is a bit inconsistent, cannot guarantee that it will work.

    Buttons on Question/Score of Captivate 6 slides? -Captivate Blog

    Another solution is to create a custom question. There is a lot of work, you can use drag - and drop to create it, some actions of the object. Or you can use the dropdown interaction to let the user decide which element to match with. I created corresponding to these questions with the Interactive InfoSemantics drag & drop widget, but is limited to the output SWF.

  • Insert the ComboBox in text layout Framework (TLF)

    Hello world

    Anyone who has worked with Text Layout Framework (TLF)?

    Please help me. I am facing a big problem.

    According to TLF with the help of the 'insertInlineGraphic' method, we can add Image or DisplayObject in TLF. But this isn't the case. I try to add a combobox in TLF but no use.

    Here's the line of code:

    EditManager(_textFlow.interactionManager).insertInlineGraphic(new ComboBox(),100,40);
    

    Please help me.

    Kind regards

    Amandeep Singh

    Sorry, you are right. The line has a parent who takes care of his positioning. Then, when you look at the x, y, its 0 compared to its parent. If you look at the position of the parent DisplayObject, you would see that that is compared to the TextLine.

    To get it in the global (stage) coordinates, call globalToLocal() on (x, y) position of the line. To get the coordinates from the line, you will need to take global coordinates and call textLine.localToGlobal, as the contact information of container, it would be the same, but the use of the container instead of the textLine.

    Hope this helps,

  • Do rotate, tilt, the scale using the Text Layout Framework text?

    I saw through the flash/flex API and examples that a rotation is possible with the text layout framework, but it seems limited to 90-degree angles. Is it possible to make more complex angles (i.e. any angle arbitrary?) Also, is it possible to apply the chisel and scales? Why don't a raw array to the text?

    Text rotation is possible through the TLF, but only according to the angles specified by the documentation of the API. Entire TextFlow scale/rotation/inclination can be done by manipulating the container of the TextFlow.

I also tried to simply place the audio file on the page and moving this layer to 'group' that is inside my rectangle frame. This results in scrolling no longer works.

    Here is a video showing where I have my frame with scroll and my group, which works without problems on the tests. But then when I place the audio file and move it into the Group and test it, scroll frame no longer works.

  • Hidden text box and question until what the previous text box has a value that it contains.

    Hello

    I'm trying to create a form that has fields required in it. I know that Adobe Acrobat is a great way to say "Hey, you must complete this part of the form...." "so what I wanted to do was put an overlay of a text box on top of the question, so they can't jump some criteria in the form. For example, if my name is John and my last name is Smith I would like the first (first name) box is visible and the second box (surname) to be hidden until I enter any name such as John, Joe, Chris, Abigail, etc..

    Is it possible that there is that the availability of hide a box of text over the expression until something has a value contained in the previous question?

  • How to make floating text at the bottom of the image that is 100% screen

    My jpg image works perfectly 100% if she grows as widens the window of the browser.

    But the text that I placed just below the image doesn't move, therefore, as increases the size of the image. The text remains in the same place regardless of the size of the browser window. So I have to have a large space below the image so that the image will not cover the text as the image grows. How can I make the text stay directly below the image at 100%, as it develops? The text should move from its position as the image grows.

    Here's a site that does exactly what I want. I need to content of the site always float upward or down to stay directly below the image. In the following case, the entire purpose of the site always float upwards or downwards based on the size of the browser window.

    Thank you!

    Lee

    You can use image fill or fill browser page and place the block of text as a width of 100%, where the two must be resized according to the size of the browser.

    The text will not move to different positions on the page but probably will resize itself.

  • Floating text with div alignment problems

    I have trouble with the lay-out. I'm afraid that this is a common problem (just an amateur) but could not find the solution.

    I have a div container and inside this a content-div div and a floating sidebar div (floating on the right). I would like the text of the content div is at the same level as the bar side-divtext. So... "Spaanse lovely" the text is horizontal at the same level as the text 'Op naar... search. ».

    As it is now, everything looks all right on my laptop and Internet Explorer. But if I look at another PC (also IE) the text "Spaanse lovely" appears much lower.

    Edit the css "container" as below. Some of the elements of the Spry naviagtion are floating, who will lead them in the normal html stream, so you have to 'clear' These floats, so clear: both; (below) instead of clear: none;

  • Master page text frame, CS3 question

    I use a master page to an inside page of the chapter has a couple of different text blocks: one for the header, one for the text and one for the folio, etc..

    I made a change to the largest block of text, where will the majority of the text. Rather than update the pages, I now have a dotted line showing me where the new 'top', and I need to drag each individual up to respond to this text block. I know I'm doing something wrong, because it's crazy.

    School me! What Miss me? Not to mention that the brain cells?

    Thankee,

    Chryss

    The main text blocks can be useful or a waste of time. I almost never use them for content of the body, instead the margins of adjustment to the size of the text block. ID will use margins to create new images on all pages it adds.

    That said, if you threw text in the frameworks of masters and the images on the live page is not updated when you change the master, it implies that you have already changed the size of the image on the live page. It is unlikely, in my view, if my guess is that you are not really masters executives. It's pretty easy to think you are, but to make a new image instead.

    The idea is to look at the loaded cursor and see if the form is modified to include the parentheses. They indicate you want text in an existing framework. If the frame is bounded or crossed by guides, it is important to click in an area away from these guides. ID will use the entire frame. If, however, you click on a guide, ID will ignore the existing frame of master and make a new one. One way to tell is to drag the form part of framework filled the page and see if the main frame is always present (dashed lines).

    Allowing the page layout setting can help in a situation like this, if blocks of text actually affect guides, but there is no guarantee, and it must be turned on BEFORE you make a change to the document.

    If you provide more information, and perhaps a screenshot of the page master, we can give a better answer.

  • Scalability and performance of text Layout Framework

    I am rebuilding an old as2 application that supports the huge documents, sometimes in the order of 1000 + pages of text.   It had to be scrolls and not paged so I thought originally a way to break everything in discrete text and put stripes implemented scrolling with a few empty lines above and below that I would inject the content while scrolling.  It's a little messy but it reduces very well, especially considering it was in as2 lol.

    So now I'm back to this app and hope to take advantage of many of the great features of the TLF.   So the question is what can do to manage using the TLF and scrolling with extreme scalability in mind.    The first thoughts of the original that I have are to build a flow of the main text of the entire document, and then click fly pull specific lines of copy, but this solution seems already quite painful.

    So what are the thoughts you guys on how best to implement this?

    I know I could use the pagination for this, but I REALLY want to avoid it at all costs this does not work in all cases of my.

    Thank you!

    ~ JT

    Hello

    I recommend the following with the current state of things:

    (1) divide the long flow in chapters, each chapter being a separate here TextFlow.See the example of Pagination:

    http://blogs.Adobe.com/tlf/2008/12/ActionScript-pagination-exampl.html

    You will not have to choose between the chapters.

    (2) to virtualize your content - Flash objects are expensive - think of ways to make a virtual view of your document that minimzes the object count.  I would recommend scrolling discovers you page through new chapters created TextFlows, containers and TextLine so that those that are visible.

    (3) make at least a ContainerController and Sprite per page.  There has been some recent work that appears shortly which accelerates the composer a bit by adding at the end of a multi TextFlow container.  Logic was added so that the composer may proceed directly to the first damaged container. This does not all the performance issues with long flow, but it's a start.  Flex has not picked up this change yet, but it will be available soon.  Looking for TLF 527 or later.

    I have attached a test program and a SWF built with the skip to first logical damaged container.  Assuming that it publishes - compare that with your performance if you build the program to test with the current code.

    Note: as attached file as a .txt file - rename and rebuild with textLayout.swc common to the previous performance.  There is still much to do they use for excellent performance in all cases of long lava flows.

    Hope that helps,

    Richard
