How can I move reference text do not match

I have a document with 900 pages and 2700 notes (imported from the word). After a day of styling etc I noticed that there was a problem with some of the references. The text of a note has been added at the end of the old text of reference. The reference text does not at this stage, the reference number. It is off by one.

How can I fix?

This same problem has been discussed here: Re: How do I move the note-text up a reference for all the notes after a given number?

But I'm not familiar with the scripts, so I did not understand how to apply this...

cramik script works great, but he's copying notes backward. You want to copy the attackers, from the note "doubled upward.

This is a full version and adjusted:

//DESCRIPTION:Move footnotes FORWARDS into place// based on cramik 8-Apr-2014// https://forums.adobe.com/message/6280047var myStory =  app.selection[0].parent;var myName = myInput ();// rest of the scriptfunction myInput (){ var myWindow =new Window ("dialog", "Form"); var myInputGroup = myWindow.add ("group"); myInputGroup.add ("statictext", undefined, "First note to correct:"); var myText = myInputGroup.add ("edittext", undefined, ""); myText.characters = 5; myText.active =true; var myButtonGroup = myWindow.add ("group"); myButtonGroup.alignment ="right"; myButtonGroup.add ("button", undefined, "OK"); myButtonGroup.add ("button", undefined, "Cancel");if(myWindow.show ()== 1) {  var noteStart = myText.text;  var myNotes = myStory.footnotes;  for (i=myNotes.length-1; i>=noteStart; i--)  {   myNotes[i-1].texts[0].move (LocationOptions.BEFORE, myNotes[i].insertionPoints[0]);  } } else  exit ();}

To Save this as a good script: copy, paste it into the editor of ExtendScript Toolkit (or any other ordinary code editor), save to your Scripts folder. See http://indesignsecrets.com/how-to-install-a-script-in-indesign-that-you-found-in-a-forum-o r-blog - post.php for the long version.

To run this:

1. click on the text cursor inside running story that contains your notes.

2. double-click on the script to run.

3. the dialog box that opens advertising the first note move "forward". Enter the reference number that contains your duplicate text. The script will also move one in its entirety, so make sure to copy the text correct return empty (now) one with which you started.

Be sure to test on a copy, just in case something goes wrong!

  • How can I move my images on external hard drive?

    I need to create a space on my portable hard drive. How can I move my images on an external hard drive? Terrified, I'll losse them or get the dreaded...? Help!

    There is no need to be terriefied. The "dreaded"? "isn't so bad.

    The best way to go about this is:

    (1) in Lr / Grid View / files Panel (left side) put all your image files under folder of one of their parents. If this is already the case, you can skip this step. To do this, just create a new folder and name it descriptive. Then drag-and - drop your image in addition to this newly created folder files. This will make all the image files subfolders in the folder of one of their parents.

    (2) close Lr. In the Finder of Mac / Win Explorer to move the newly created parent folder (wil together all its subfolders) on external hard drive you. This is important: Do not rename the files or change the structure of folder at this point.

    (3) Lr re - open. In the files Panel, you will see the | "dreaded" "? -don't panic! Right click (i.e. click the right - as opposed to left - button you rmouse) parent folder he that you created earlier and now shows the question mark and select . Navigate to the location of the folder on your external drive parent and select it. LR will find all subfolders on its own.

    That's all there is to it.

    PS: in fact the text is not . But the procedure is the same.

  • How can I move a code symbol?

    In fact, I am train to downtown and the scale of a symbol, while maintaining the proportions, such as the width fills the stage, but that doesn't seem to be possible for background images (width: 100, height: auto).

    I have created a symbol (with approximately 6 divs (rectangles and text) inside) on the stage and named it "content." The stage is wide 100% and 100% high. On window.resize, I put the content and scale.

    var stageWidth = $(window) () .width;

    var contentWidth is sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .width ();.

    var m = stageWidth / contentWidth;

    sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .css (' - webkit - transform ', ' scale ("m +", "+ m +") ");

    He played very well, but it evolves around a weird point making the symbol appear to move the window resizes. I want him to stay on the left hand side (the fill window). I couldn't work on how do in the interface, so I started to attack him with the code

    Console.log ("before:" + sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .position () .left);

    sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .css ("position", "relative");

    sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .css ("top", "0px"); actually must be-(moitié (hauteur de contenu-stade hauteur))

    sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .css ("left", "0px");

    Console.log ("after:" + sym.getSymbol("content").getSymbolElement () .position () .left);

    But that's not any effect at all (other than fill my javascript console). How can I move this thing in the right position?

    Hi, Sean.

    It is in fact - webkit-transform-origin, - moz-transform-origin - o-transform-origin, - ms-transform-origin.  If you do not create your symbol dynamically, you can set it to animate by changing the property in the property pane.

    Thank you
