• Add each search to 'FindChangeList.txt '...

  Possible of it s a script for each search 'Add' at the end of the "FindChangeList.txt" of "FindChageByList.jsx", but without intervention in the copy/paste ("RecordFindChange_CS3_Kas.jsx"): just run the script after each search to add...

  Thanks for reading me...

  Hi Marcos,

  I don't have access to InDesign right now, so I can't check if it works, but I suggest you make some minor modifications to the RecordFindChange script:

  change

  myData var = collectData();
  writeData (myData);

  TO

  myData var = '\r' + collectData();

  WriteToFile (aData);

  and to use this function

  function WriteToFile (myText) {}
  myFile = new file ("/ C/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe InDesign CS3/Scripts/Scripts Panel/Samples/JavaScript/FindChangeSupport/FindChangeList.txt" "");
  If {(myFile.exists)
  myFile.open ("e");
  myFile.seek (0, 2);
  }
  else {}
  myFile.open ("w");
  }
  myFile.write (myText);
  myFile.close ();
  }

  Instead

  myFile should point to your FindChangeList.txt file

• Remove the scaling of fonts - need help with FindChangeList.txt

  First the whole question: is there a utility or a method that will allow me to convert a saved query F/c the kind of writing required by the FindChangeByList.jsx script?

  As:

  text

  {"findWhat: '-'"}

  {"changeTo: '" ^ = "}

  {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeWord:false}

  Find out all the space-dash-space and replace it with an en dash.

  (It comes just to refresh your memory... in fact, it is not the text string I need to help, but find/changes formatting.)

  I need a quick way to go through a document and remove any instance of glyph local scale or style. That is, to turn again to 100% horizontal and vertical. This is necessary for the correct exit to EPUB (fixed provision).

  A script would be great, but who, a way to write about this kind of implementation in the form of instructions to add to FindChangeByList.jsx would serve me well in the long term, as I have other similar types of doc-all of the formatting I often need to make default

  Thank you

• When I try to run a FindChangeByList.jsx in InDesignCS4, it won't let me choose a txt file

  Hi all

  I have a 100 page document that uses two queries to javascript FindChange to clean an imported XML file. I use the same files to clean for years and they worked very well. (I still only open in CS4 because I had some problems when you try to use this combo XML/find-replace in CS5 and 6.) The only difference is my computer has been upgraded, the apps reinstalled and am now running 10.9.5

  I can import the XML very well in my template, but when I double click FindChangeByList.jsx, select Document, click OK, nothing happens. I do not get a second dialog box asking me to choose my cleanup of txt file.

  I have only run this job once a year, so it's possible that I'm doing something wrong. I have copies of my txt files place in as many scripts as I can find it on my computer, but they are greyed out in support FIndChange file in InDesign.

  Please help, it's the only way to correct this XML!

  Hello

  2 things:

  1. assuming that your script is original - it is not by asking a TXT file grow is in the expected location. You can choose between 2 options:

  • to remove FindChangeList.txt of FindChangeSupport file ==> script will ask another file
  • to replace this file with your request ==> script won't ask but to run your query

  2. you can see greyed TXT files in the Script Panel since this panel shows the executable files (the script formats)

• My first script needs help

  Text < tab > {findWhat: '< U + 0394 >'} < tab > {appliedCharacterStyle: 'Symbol'} < tab > {includeFootnotes: true, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false}

  In this case, I want to exchange the Greek letter Delta, which is the code point U + 0394, for a specific character style (the style is called symbol).

  The question is: is written right?

  Where should I put it? Because I'm just add this line to an existing code...

  Thanks anyway for everyone! ^^

  Hello

  You can use the "grep" instead of "text". I mean:

  grep{findWhat: "\x 394 {}" ""}{appliedCharacterStyle: 'Symbol'}{includeFootnotes:t Street, includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, wholeWord:false}

  findWhat: "\x 394 {}" means to find a unicode with defined number (the number you see in the Panel Info InDesign).

  It must be placed as one of the lines inside the file "FindChangeList.txt" before "FindChangeByList.jsx" run.

• The difference between the "Find and replace" in the menu and FindChangeByList.jsx

  Hello! Please help me. Why this work ' find and replace ' (grep), but not working in FindChangeByList.jsx

  find	replace
  \r\d (.) \D\d	0$ 0

  This procedure find enter, any digit, any digit, any digit and replace all in 0, found.

  Example:

  front	after
  ¶ 7.35	0 ¶ 7.35

  But it does not work in FindChangeByList.jsx (file: FindChangeList.txt):

  grep

  {findWhat: "\r\d (.)} \D\d"}

  {changeTo: "0$ 0"}

  {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeWord:false}

  And it does not work in the present:

  myDocument var = app.documents.item (0);

  app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;

  app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;

  app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeFootnotes = false;

  app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeHiddenLayers = false;

  app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeLockedLayersForFind = false;

  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = \r\d (.) « \D\d » ;

  app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = "0$ 0";

  myDocument.changeGrep ();

  Please help me understand. Thank you!

  in findChangeByList you have to escape the string:

  {findWhat : » \d(.) \r\\ \\d\\d"}

• Color of find/replace Word

  I use InDesign CS5 on a mac.

  I have set up a GREP search to replace the Word colors with the colors, I defined in InDesign. Works fine when I run it in InDesign. However, when I put the search in the FindChangeList.txt file and run the FindChangeByList.jsx script, I always get an error. He said: this is the error #17, line 172:

  app.doScript (myString, ScriptLanguage.javascript);

  Anyone know why?

  It comes to research, I put in the .txt file:

  grep {, fillColor: "Word_R0_G128_B0"} {, fillColor: "Black"} {includeLockedStoriesForFind:false, includeLockedLayersForFind:false, includeHiddenLayers:false, includeMasterPages:false, includeFootnotes:true, kanaSensitive:true, widthSensitive:true} //Replace Color Word

  I came across several posts that say there are several free scripts that can run saved queries to GREP all at once, but they list the names of script or link to everything. Does anyone know a script that combines queries?

  I think that it will fire on the part '{, '. Commas go between values, but you only have a single value. Just out this comma before "fillColor", in both places.

• The use of FindChange for nets of subsection control

  Is there a way to turn ruleAbove/ruleBelow and turns off using the FindChangeByList script?

  If the active paragraph style has a defined ruleBelow, but turned off, it seems that I should be able to put on with a statement in the FindChangeList.txt file as follows:

  grep {findWhat:"(some_unique_string)"} {ruleBelow:true, changeTo: '$1'} {}

  This does not throw an error, but it does not work for me.  None of the paragraph rule properties can be applied: offset, thickness of line, etc.

  Indeed, it can be done directly with a findGrep (or findChange). Look at the dialog box in InDesign and you will see that paragraph nets are not included. Given that the JS functions find take advantage of the technology that provides the features of the interactive user research, it suffers from the same limitation.

  In a script, you can work around this problem by making the discovery (rather than a change) and then iterate over the results defining the desired paragraph NET.

• FindChangeByList Script, some GREP queries do not work

  I adjusted the queries on 'FindChangeList.txt' to my needs. There are towing GREP queries that will not work with the script but works perfectly well with the Interface of search/replace. I have no explanation for this strange behavior. Can anyone help?

  These are the two queries:

  grep {findWhat: "\A\s+"} {"changeTo: ' ' '} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeword:false} storystart: CONTROL all white space.

  grep {findWhat: "\s+\Z"} {"changeTo: ' ' '} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeword:false} storyend: CONTROL all white space.

  Thank you very much.

  grep {findWhat: "\A\s+"} {"changeTo: ' ' '} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeword:false}

  It is the version of JavaScript, you need to double the backslashes if string Analyzer JavaScript eat.  In other words: {findWhat: '\\A\\s+'}.

  Because this completely destroyed the readability of regexp, I would use rather {findWhat: / \A\s + / .source}

  but I understand why it is not popular.

• FindChangeByList and associated text files

  I'm trying to convert from CS2 to CS5 and need to update all my text files that run with the FindChangeByList script. I did not write these files, but has been involved in the decision to use our process so that my knowledge of them is minimal. Unfortunately, no one left to my company doesn't have any knowledge of them is to me to dig and to update. I was able to determine the majority of the conversion, but am stuck on the last "column.

  An example of our existing script looks like this:

  {"findText:" "^ t"}     {changeText: "^ t"} all the
  {findText: "' ^ t ^ t '"}     {changeText: "^ t"} all the
  {"findText:" "^ p"}     {changeText: "^ p"} all the
  {findText: "' ^ t ^ p '"}     {changeText: "^ p"} all the
  {findText: "" ^ p ^ t ' "}     {changeText: "^ p"} all the
  {"RechercherTexte:" "-"}     {' changeText: "^ =" "} all the
  {"RechercherTexte:"-""}     {' changeText: "^ =" "} all the
  {findText: ' AM ^ p '}     {' changeText: ' am ^ p ""} once
  {findText: "PM ^ p '}     {changeText: ' h ^ p "" '} once
  {findText: ' AM ^ t '}     {' changeText: ' am ^ t ""} once
  {findText: "PM ^ t '}     {changeText: ' h ^ t "" "} once

  I'm converting it to this:

  text {"findWhat:" ^ t ""} {"changeTo:" "^ t"} {}

  text {findWhat: "^ t ^ t"} {changeTo: "" ^ t ""} {}

  text {"findWhat:" ^ p ""} {"changeTo:" ' ^ p '} {}

  text {findWhat: "^ t ^ p"} {changeTo: "" ^ p ""} {}

  text {findWhat: "^ p ^ t"} {changeTo: "" ^ p ""} {}

  text {"findWhat:"-""} {"changeTo: ' ^ = ' '} {}

  text {"findWhat: '-' '} {' changeTo: ' ^ = ' '} {}

  text {findWhat: ' AM ^ p "" '} {' changeTo: ' ' am ^ p '} {}

  text {findWhat: ' PM ^ p "" '} {changeTo: ' h ^ p '} {}

  text {findWhat: ' AM ^ t "" "} {" changeTo: ' ' am ^ t '} {}

  text {findWhat: ' PM ^ t "" "} {changeTo: ' h ^ t '} {}

  I know I'm supposed to enter text in the direction of caseSensitive:true, wholeWOrd:false, etc. Is there a quick way to determine if it is said once, it should be changed to say {} and if everything says to use {}, or can I go line by line to determine what should be the appropriate label?

  These are lines of the version of CS4 FindChangeByList - CS5 could have an updated version (even if the command find/replace has not changed):

  text {"findWhat: '-' '} {changeTo:" ^ = "} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeWord:false} search all space-dash-space and replace it with an en dash.

  grep {"findWhat:" + ""} {"changeTo: ' ' '} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeWord:false} find all double spaces and replace them with single spaces.

  It looks like you can change all with an advanced text editor (Textpad on the PC), TextWrangler on Mac - no TextEdit or Notepad using a couple of find/changes.
  The 'all' / 'once' stuff are more necessary because it was for change, for example, 3 spaces on 2, then 2-1, until no 2 places have been found. With GREP, you can do that, "in one go"-as in, the search for '+' - two spaces as well as a more - and replace it with a space. Even with several tabs (rating of GREP is '\t', not "^ t").
  A little more 'better' ways, use GREP:
  rather than {findText: ' AM ^ p "" '} {' changeText: ' "am ^ p"} once
  Use grep {findWhat: "AM$"} {changeTo: 'am'} {includeMasterPages:true, includeHiddenLayers:true, includeFootnotes:true, wholeWord:false}
  rather than {findText: "^ t ^ p"} {changeText: "^ p"} all the
  use grep {findWhat: "\t+$"} {"changeTo: ' '} {(.. includeFootnotes etc.) }
  Look in your CS5 FindChangeList.txt for more examples.
  Important: between 'grep' / 'text' and the following ' {' and between the two ""} ' / ' {', and after the last one, there should be a single TAB - not one or several spaces.} Seems that the script can not yet grok that, even though people have been frustrated by her to the first version.

• Fill the Document with the prices of the worksheet

  Hi everyone, I don't know if it's a general question or a challenge for the gurus of scripts.

  I have a huge task in front of me where I need to add prices to individual product copy items depends on the unique code for each product. As you can see in the attachment, I have a master document with applied styles that I will use throughout a catalogue I produce from scratch. The problem is that I have only gave me prices in a spreadsheet after I had already crossed and style the master copy, so for the moment, I have a lot of symbols of Sterling without price.

  Is there a method or plugin I can use that will use the excel sheet to find the product code in a single column use the value of the adjacent copy and add the price of the site appropriate?

  I downloaded the demo for WoodWing's Smart Catalog but is a bit overwhelming in its learning curve because I need super fast results!

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I could offer you my help--but only if you work on PC

  but for this simple task you can use the script called FindChangeByList located in the example scripts folder in your installation of CS4 - [] \Adobe InDesign CS4\Scripts\Scripts Panel\Samples\ and subfolders JavaScript or VBScript file

  contents of your FindChangeList.txt file might look like this:

  text {findWhat: "R883"} {changeTo: "£ 69.00"}

  or if you need to preserve the "code":

  text {findWhat: "R883"} {changeTo: "R883\t £69.00"}

  You can replace '\t' "" (space)

  I think you can build your pretty easy FindChangeList.txt file by adding a few new columns in your Excel and then export to txt file

• (CS4) How to change the text in the character format?

  Hello scripters.

  I need help with a problem with "FindChangeByList":

  I want to change the text with special elements (and more than one element),

  for example: color: black AND italic AND subscript

  (high, critical, or small caps)

  and change in a character format that I have before defineted

  (lets call it for example "01 - xyz").

  As I understand it, I can do it with GREP and 'FindChangeByList-sript.

  But what should remain here '?

  grep {"find what:"?} "} {" change to: "?} "} {include notes: true, include master pages: true include hidden layers: true, any word: false} find all double spaces and replace them with single spaces.

• Inconsistent behavior with find/replace Applescript

  Hello

  I am trying to add queries additional search/replace to the script by copying and pasting existing queries in the file FindChangeList.txt, then changing variables that are changed/wanted. I'm having mixed success though - sometimes I add a new query and it turns off one of the existing queries, other times I add a new query and it just doesn't work.

  Is this something to do with the copy/paste items, or are there some rules around what order the elements must be in?

  For example, it works fine:

  text {find what: 'Mobile'} {change to: "M"} {include notes: true, include master pages: true include hidden layers: true, any word: false} find the Mobile and replace them with M.

  Yet, just before it, does not work?

  text {find what: 'Business'} {change to: 'B'} {include notes: true, include master pages: true include hidden layers: true, any word: false} find businesses and replace it with B.

  We're just one copy of the other, so, what's the difference?

  I love this script and the time it saves me, but more I tinker with it more, it seems inconsistent.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  See you soon
