How to adjust the spacing between paragraphs in InDesign?

I remember earlier versions of InDesign, simply having a fit that would regulate the amount of space before or after a paragraph. What he did is just to accept the BACKSPACE as an end of paragraph and give the setting you choose, similar to the definition of the line spacing and it was as simple as that. I don't see any icon view setting the spacing of the paragraphs in InDesign now, even a search on the spacing of paragraphs a lot of tangent and complicated theories but nothing simple and direct. Is there a way to do this simply in the new versions of InDesign?

Hi Ken,

On the far left of your screen, you will see two icons - paragraph and character. At present, the character a is selected, then your control panel is showing options for this. If you click the icon of paragraph below, you will find the controls of spacing you want. It might be that you have a smaller screen as I do, because mine shows the character and paragraph options all the time.

Don't pay attention to paragraph styles. You can format your paragraphs using the Control Panel, select some of your existing text and then make a new style of paragraph based on the selection. I know we all go styles and that they might take a bit of getting used to, but they will save you a lot of time in the long run.

Good luck

Malcolm

  • Adjust the spacing between the characters?

    Hello! I use Photoshop Elements 8 and I was wondering if there is a way to adjust the spacing between characters in a text?

    Very limited. Go to the preferences of the editor > text and activate the options display Asian text. Then enter your text and click here, then go to the drop without a label at the bottom of the list:

    It comes to tsume, which adjusts the space around a character, not only the kerning between letters.

  • How to decrease the spacing between shapes and move the form to the top, what model creation brush?

    Hello world

    I am trying to create an external border for some tires and have a few questions about the model of brush.

    I created a solid form and then, with her, a brush model. But I don't want all this spacing between shapes, so is there a way to get rid of the spacing or DECREASE spacing altogether. Currently, it is set at 0%.

    Also, is there a way to raise the forms so that the basic lines of form are placed outside of the ellipse that is drawn? See first image below in the middle of forms at the intersection with the outline of the ellipse drawn.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Return to the brush model.

    1. drag the brush from the Panel forms.

    2. with the direct Selection tool or in, select the Panel layers no filling / n ° rectangle race which is located at the back of this group of brush.

    3. adjust (reduce) the width of the rectangle until you find a size that produces the desired gap.

    4. Select the shape of the brush and the no fill / no rectangle STROKE, Opt/Alt-drag on top of the original brush in the Panel shapes.

    Trial and error is valuable here until you see how it works. or you can use specific values.

    To align the bottom edge of the brush with the path:

    With no filling/no STROKE rectangle selected, as indicated above, move it down so that its horizontal axis coincides with the lower edge of the shape of the brush, then Opt/Alt-drag the brush and rectangle again in the Panel forms.

    Edit: As says Monika.

  • How to change the spacing between list items in the Pages?

    I've implemented some spacing after each paragraph to control the distance between the point and the next title.

    When using lists, this translates a lot of space between each element of the list (#2 Alpha). What I want is a list like #2 Bravo, but without having to change the spacing of each element. I could make a new style specifically for lists (with a spacing of '0'), but this will result in my next title hugging my list.

    Is it possible to Pages (and Keynote) to get this result? Or should I stay with placing a hard 'return' after my list?

    Hope it makes sense

    Thnx!

    I'm using Pages 5.6.1

  • Unformattable Indesign text - how to remove the spaces between paragraphs?

    I have a 95 page indesign document. I have a few unwanted spaces between paragraphs. I could not get rid of these spaces. I tried to replace the formatting, using the window styles to paragraph, but in this case indesign does not yet recognize the formatting. I put paragraphs in form to 0P0 before and after paragraphs, and yet space remains between some paragraphs. I'm going crazy!

    The problem lies in the text imported into strange formatt, but that was five years ago and I don't even have access to the original text to try to import once more. Perhaps because it is a document to Indesign c5 and c6 now I use?

    Any help appreciated with gratitude,

    Sam

    After checking the object applied to blocks of text style: text frame JWK it shows under text frame General Options/Vertical Justification/Align/Justify (Peter Spier mentioned above about this possibility). I would put this Align/Top. Also when you changed the paragraph to align on the grid he left some gaps on some pages. I have put that back in would line up on the starting grid. There will be a reshuffle of the text when you do. To check if everything looks as it should. Make a copy of the file and make your changes there just in case, and let us know how it goes.

  • How to specify the spacing between the two components

    Can specify us the distance between two points on a form? If so, please let us know how?

    Published by: user1670125 on July 14, 2010 05:37

    Hello user1670125 (please tell us your name).

    It depends on if you mean vertical (distance between the items on separate lines) or horizontal (distance between the items on the same line).

    A method I use for opening a vertical space between two elements is:

    -establish a single display without label
    -Name it "P #_BLANK ' or ' P #_BLANKn ' (if there is more than one page)
    -give a sequence so that it renders between the two points
    -do not escape special characters
    -give a source value of "< br / > < br / > < br / >" (according to the number of blank lines you need)

    A method I use for opening space horizontally between two elements (assumption here, is that you have defined the second element to not display on a new line and have adjusted the scope of column on other points in the same region to bring together the two fields as needed) - simply specify "& nbsp;" & nbsp; & nbsp; "in the first element display text of item (according to the number of spaces you need to).

    Hope this helps,
    John

  • How to adjust the gap between the tilelist items?

    Hello

    I have a tilelist component that uses a custom item renderer component to its elements. I see a gap between the rows of items (no space between the columns). I can't find a tileList component property that allows you to address this deficiency.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    The Tile container has horizontalGap and verticalGap properties. I don't know why that has not been deferred to the TileList.

    What you have to do is make your itemRenderer have empty space. So if you want a gap of 10 pixels between the columns to make the margins or padding on your itemRenderer have 5 pixels on each side. Ditto for the top and the bottom.

    It's not ideal, I know, but it's how you do it. Please fill out a request for improvement to bugs.adobe.com (Journal with your Adobe ID) If you wish.

  • How can I change the spacing between icons in the taskbar?

    I have a small screen laptop.  Because I want a decent number of programs in my taskbar for easy access, I chose the small icons and no names, etc.  However, the icons of small programs (when not in use) are spaced so far that there is little room to spare.  New programs quickly cause Group and are difficult to manage.

    Why is Microsoft put so much empty space between the small icons unopened?  It's wasted space.

    More important still, how to shrink the space between icons?  On Vista and XP, you could drag the icons to manage your space.  How do I do this with Windows 7?

    Thank you!

    Just after I posted that space is really needed, I found the answer who asked the original question.

    You can change the space between icons (really the size of the buttons) by changing the size of "Buttons" in the window color and appearance. The default on my version of Windows (2008 R2) was 18 years old. When I set it down to the size buttons for the GET pinned icons smaller and thus the icons closer together.

    I don't know if the path is the same in Win7, but in 2008 R2, you right-click on the desktop and select Personalize. Then click on the color button of the window (at the bottom of the window). The dialog box that appears should be titled 'window color and appearance '. In the drop-down list item, select the caption buttons and adjust the size to change the distance between the icons.

    I've only tried a couple of sizes too so setting can cause problems. Once you apply, you will need to right click on the desktop and do a Refresh or even logoff and back on again.

  • How do I adjust the spacing of the letter (or character) in PDF form?

    I use Acrobat X Pro.  My form to fill out, I would like to set the spacing between the letters.  For example, if you go to the IRS.gov site and download the PDF 1040EZ form, you can see that the spacing between the characters in the inscription of the social security number has been expanded.  How did that?  I couldn't find when I right click and choose Properties.

    Thank you.

    The "Comb" option makes a text field resembles a comb field upon entry. If you re-branded borders, you will see the borders around each character.

    Why don't you download the IRS form on your local computer and edit it in Acrobat?

  • In designer Mode, it is Possible to the spacing between the lines of control?  How?

    Hello

    http://www.collegestudentvoice.com/

    Even when I opened UNTITLED' page without my customized page layouts there is a space between line in own page why I write sentences.

    see you soon,

    Dreamweaver101.1

    (1) never trust design mode - only view that counts is rendered in a web browser.

    (2) padding using CSS, margins and the row height to control spacing. Use not (nonbreaking space) or
    General formatting tags!

    (3) Dreamweaver is not a word processor. It is futile to try to use it as such.

    (4) give up the idea that you can control all aspects of the presentation of your document. You can not. Users viewing your page will use different settings, have different fonts and do different things beyond what you expect always. So instead of "force" users to view the document the way that you think it should be considered, use the flexibility of HTML documents to allow the user to view your content in a way that suits them best.

    As always, to learn the language (HTML and CSS) to get the best results on the environment (web pages). I hope this helps.
