highlighting multiple text boxes?

This is a feature in Microsoft Word, and now the new firefox. where you can select several text boxes by simply now the ctrl key while you click and drag, for purposes of copy and paste everything you pointed out or modification of character attributes for only the selected text boxes...

is it possible in Illustrator?

I use illustrator to letter comics

I paste the script to the page outside the area of work page...

I then go through change all the attributes of text characters in the font and size, and everything what the actual dialog box will I place inside the work...

for dialogue of different characters or boxes of different caption sometimes I'll use a different font or size... that can go through and highlighting the parts of the script that have different and changing character dialog box at the same time instead of each line/bubble one would be a great time saver...

If this is not a function, it must be in the future.

No, simultaneous selection of discontiguous partial text strings is not a feature of Illustrator.

  • use of multiple text boxes?

    I have a project where the student must solve a problem by looking at a series of graphs, each being identified by a numerical code. In the project, I have a text box where I want the user to enter an ID (I considered to use buttons, but in the actual application for which students are lead they are looking for by number, so I figure I should try and which mimic).

    The action of success for the text box is a conditional action that sets the State of an otherwise invisible button to a State that displays the graph in a part of the screen. The button would then become visible, and clicking it returns to the default state (invisible button, no graphics). "Else" for the conditional action displays a generic message "is not the graph you're looking for.

    OK, so I'm pretty proud of myself for coming up with this, but there is a problem: it seems that even if it is set to infinity attempts, once the text box has a 'success', it does nothing for the following entries.

    I've found a workaround, but it's a bit of a hack: give the next slide action on enter which brings us back to the previous slide, "reloading" text box so it behaves as expected. Of course this will make navigation difficult, and it's just a messier solution I want.

    Does anyone know a better way to do it?

    Do not use the default TEBs button, uncheck the display/view button. Use a button that is not attached to the ETB.

  • Autoflowing multiple text boxes

    I'm working on a long document (400 pages) that contains two areas of text not linked on every page.

    If I had just a text box with overflow text, indesign creates all the necessary pages with linked text boxes.


    I have done several times before.

    But there is a second box on every page, also with overlowing content that should flow to the corresponding box in the following pages.

    I'm hoping to avoid manually linking this second box to all subsequent.

    Is this possible?

    This question is clear?

    Thank you!!!

    File > Place...  Choose file 1 (or two files if they are in the same folder). Go to the page where you want to start. If it uses the same template as the rest of the pages to add, not replace, hold down the SHIFT key and click inside the main frame of this story. New pages will be added based on this mask, so they will already contain frames for the second story on the master page. Place history NDDN similarly on the first page of holing the SHIFT key.

    If you need to have a real parallel flow with several paragraphs of different lengths on the same page, for example, with all the numbers, aligned with the first line of each paragraph of the text, it's a little harder to achieve. Much easier if each page contains only a single set that you can use options keep paragraph style to force everyone starting on the next page.

    For several paragraphs, it would be easier to use anchored objects to maintain numbers, but there is no way anchored thread frames. It is possible to use the data merge, too, if no paragraph must cross a page boundary. More details on the project would help us find a good solution.

  • Desktop icon text boxes are blue highlighted

    original title: the desktop icon text box

    The text under my desktop icons are highlighted in a blue rectangle.  How do I get the highlighted blue and rectangle to disappear?  It was clear a few days ago.

    Do a net search for "icons transparent Alan Edwards" and you will always find the answer for this quickly.  Here is the answer to the problem:

    1. Control Panel-System-Advanced-Performance settings.
    Check "Shadows fall to use the desktop icon labels" on the display
    Effects tab.

    2 - Click on Desktop - "arrange icons by" and ensure the lock Web

    3. transparency will not work if you have the web content on your desktop.
    Control panel - display properties Desktop tab - customize the Office-

    LiveCycle ES4. I am trying to move a picture online with a text box to create a header.  I had to create a subform that flows to generate multiple pages of text.  After changing the settings, it seems that I can't place the images and the text I would like.  I tried moving them to the bottom, but does not work.  Is there a way to encapsulate the images so that they can be places as much as I want?

    Select your photo and text inside the subform flowed. Right-click and select wrap in subform do the positioned Subform subform. This will allow you to move objects in this subform positioned the way you like them.

  • text attached to highlighted text box

    I recently got a PDF file with a text box that is attached to the highlighted text. I need to find a way to do this for my own document.

    Annotation tool highlighted has a pop up that are associated with. The pop-up can be configured to show or not to show.

    The tool is available in all versions of Acrobat.

    The tool is available in Adobe Reader DC, XI and X.

    Use one of these applications and you will be able to "do this for my own document."

    Hi taraf32044550,

    I think the new user interface can be a bit of a learning curve, but I hope that you really like it when you find your bearings. Please check these tutorials will help you to find your way around: Acrobat DC Learn & support.

    In particular, I think that you will find this tutorial very useful: change text and images in PDF files

  • Highlight the area of text disappearing when a variable is used in this text box

    Dear all

    I spent ages setting up a quiz in Captivate 8 allows partial scoring on several slides and then provides feedback to the accepting of a quiz on correct/incorrect responses.  Because the partial scoring options from Captivate are so limited, I had to make abundant use of the advanced Actions number of (a) the number of correct answers (assigned to a variable called "c1") and then (b) if some but not all the answers are correct, display a text box stating the number of correct answers.  The text in the text box is simply "You got $$ c1$ $ right." and results in the text box saying 'You're right' 2 If c1 is 2.

    However, for some reason any highlighting in the text box turns off if I put a variable in there.  For example, if the text box has the normal orange highlight given to partially correct captions, this nail does not appear if I include the variable, but it does not appear if I simply say "Partially correct.".  Does anyone know how I can fix this you problem?  I have searched previous questions on this site and on the internet but couldn't find anything.  I also tried to clear the cache of Captivate on my computer, but it does not help this problem.

    All the most popular thoughts.

  • Multiple text entry boxes

    Can I get help with text input boxes?  I have a slide where I want the student to enter some multiples of two numbers.  On my blade, I put five text entry boxes.  I wonder what values are correct for the boxes, and I put 8,12,24,12,18, respectively.  I don't know how to proceed after that.  Can I put a single button "Enter" so that the answers will be verified?  If the answers are false, he will tell the student who are wrong?

    Use the variables created by the user for responses - such as v_8, v_12, v_24, v_8, v_18?

    Using variables created by the user allow me to activate Advanced Actions, depending on whether the answers are good or bad and bring them to the next slide in the series if they are correct, or have them redo this slide or to examine multiple if they are incorrect?

    I just want to understand how it goes together.  Thank you.

    Indeed, the value that was inserted in the TEB will be displayed, even if you clear the value of the associated variable. You need a widget for this.

    It is not possible to explain the workflow in a forum, sorry.

  • How do complete you 1 text box with multiple drop-down list values

    I can fill in a text box with a value in a drop-down list, but if I have 2 drop-down list values going to the same area of text (multiple lines), the second drop-down list value removes the first value.

    (A similar code on the drop-down list 1 and 2 from the drop-down list)

    Change event - JavaScript

    If (xfa.event.newText == 'No') {}

    Form1.Page1.subform2.Description.RawValue = "no location listed.

    }

    If (xfa.event.newText == "Partial renting") {}

    Form1.Page1.subform2.Description.RawValue = "enumerated part place."

    }

    Do I have to Concat the fields in 1 text field so that it can have several values in drop-down list, and if so how do I do that?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Resolved:

    Place this script in the root of the subform in the FormReady - JavaScript event.

    oList var = this.getDeltas ();

    for (i = 0; i< olist.length;="" i="">

    {

    var oDelta = oList.item (i);

    oDelta.restore ();

  • Multiple lines in a text box

    I have InDesign CS5, and since this is my first experience with this type of program, I'm a real newbie.

    I have a problem with making multiple lines in a text box.  Everything works fine when I type in my first line of text.  If I type "Enter/Return" to create a second line of text, the cursor disappears and automatically creates an icon to insert additional text into a new text box.  I am at a loss to know what to do.  I tried to adjust the leader and who does not either.

    Any suggestions?  I am a student and taking a class in this program and I am currently unable to finish an assignment because it does not work.  As a side note, it also happens in PhotoShop CS5.

    I'm sorry for the issue of such a beginner, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    InDesign think you type 'Enter', the key on the numeric keypad, which is actually insert column break. Not the same thing as "Return","the key to the right of the 'L '.

    You are on a laptop? Try the Fn or Numlock?

    If it isn't happening, so can be confusing the BIOS of your machine and check again there is not an update of the bios. Again, you can bypass with Edit > keyboard shortcuts and will area of product: Menu Type and the removal of the Insert a Break character: column break.

  • Enter multiple lines in a text box &amp; display the upper left corner

    I have forms where a large amount of comment might be entered in the form - perhaps an entire page.  When I create a large text box and allow multiple lines, the currently entered text displays in the center of the box and expands to fill the box, upwards or downwards to the Center.  Is it possible to have force the text you entered appear in the upper left corner of the box and flow down.  It's a box that people have written, is how they would do it.

    Thank you very much for the help.

    Click on the object and the palette of fonts (maybe it's not visible - you can activate in the window menu) click the paragraph on this menu, you can choose the text alignment.

  • The multiplication within a text box...

    Hey all!

    Currently I am developing a mini-test within a project (Action Scipt 2) I created and could use some help.

    Basically, it's a multiple-choice test/questionnaire which adds 1 point to a text box (which will be the number 0 in it to start) If a wrong answer is selected.

    Example:

    Question 1 Total: 0

    (a) answer 1

    (b) answer 2

    (c) answer 3

    (d) answer 4

    Say so the answer 3 is the right answer, when you click on it it will go to the next question/framework. But if a, b, or d is clicked, I need to show some kind of 'Wrong' meesage (which will be a text box), display the 'NEXT' button (which is not visible/clickable until an answer is selected) to go to the next question/framework and add 1 to the box 'Total', at the same time.

    There will be a total of 3 sets of 20 questions (60 questions in total) and at the end of 3 rounds, if the user ends up with say 20 in the "Total" box, 5 points will be automatically deducted leaving it with a total of 15 (5 points subtracted is sort of a bonus at the end). Thus, on frame of 60 for example (the last picture), he would says the box 'Total' to subtract 5 by the end number of code. If the total is greater than 0, it will go to a certain range, and if the total is 0, it will go to a different image.

    Who is? Any ideas? I do it too hard... is there an easier way?

    var scoreVar:Number = 0;  initial scoreVar

    scoreTF (scoreVar);  update your textfield

    answer3Btn.onRelease = function() {}

    scoreVar ++;  increment scroeVar because it is a correct answer.

    scoreTF (scoreVar);  update your textfield

    }

    function scoreTF(n:Number) {}

    yourtextfield. Text = n;  assigns the value of scoreVar to the text property of yourtextfield

    }

  • When I print a table (multiple pages) the text box under the table seems to be moving under the table and prints with the table of this overlap. My only solution is to push the text box further down the page before printing... Any advice?

    Im having problems shaped a text box so that my table does not print right on top of it. I want it inside of my table (it's 'tems and conditions' budget)

    Any advice would be great.

    I face the same problem as well. Would like to know if there is a better way to get the text box to move with the table instead of the effect that overlap. Have to manually adjust the layout, whenever I want to get a reasonable print of a document (or export it to PDF) seems counterintuitive, especially when it causes the document seem ill-disposed on screen.

    I am running version 3.6.2 of the numbers in the case where that matters.
