How to create a style to repeat the formatting in a text column

I create lists of works of art that appears in columns on several pages of a book. Each entry will be similar but will not necessarily have the same number of lines. I would like each of quotes to have certain characteristics that are the same, i.e. the first line will be italicized, all subsequent lines will be indented slightly and will not be put in italics. Like this:

Horses in the night, 1927

oil on canvas

24 x 99

Small naked, around 1930

oil on canvas

Prof. Berry Burghum

New York, N.Y.

Paula in the bathtub, 1930

oil on canvas

23 3/4 x 8 3/4 "

Ms. Polly Downer Hough

Salt Lake City, Utah

How can I create a paragraph style or nested style to apply easily to each entry? I tried both without success so far, but I'm a freshman in nested styles. A problem I seem to have is combining two fonts (normal and italic characters) in a style. I guess it's possible somehow, but maybe not...



Advice or guidance are welcome!

Hello

It really depends on your text content!

Based on what you show, first apply para 2 [in red] all the text, then play a simple regex to apply paragraph 1, with a "space before" option [in blue]:

    How to create a document and insert the words and/or art on both sides of the page

    How to create a document and insert the words and/or art on both sides of the page

    You create a document by using an application of word processor like Microsoft Word or Corel WordPerfect or OpenOffice Writer.  Think of it as a broad a page roll.

    When you print the document, you can print all pages of the document on one sheet of paper (the normal default value), or you can print on both sides of a sheet of paper.

    Some printers are capable of automatic double-sided printing.  With others, you print all the odd pages and then take the stack of paper, turn upside down and put it back into the printer to print all pages.  You need either to read your printer manual, or experiment a bit to determine if you need to re - organize the first last pages before printing the second side.

  • How to create a report based on the item selected from the list of selection?

    Hello

    I created a tables_LOV based on:

    Select table_name table_name user_tab_cols r, d

    where column_name like '% _type % '.

    Then I created a ListOfTables page element, display in a selection list and pointing to tables_LOV.

    I run the page, and I can choose the table I want in the drop-down list.

    How to create a report based on the selected element? (ex: select * from selected_table)

    Thanks in advance

    Salah

    Hi Salah,

    Allright, take a look at this page: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:collection_report

    I think that simulates what you are trying to accomplish. I've implemented the simplest method I could think of.

    The report is based on a collection of apex. If you are not familiar with this, you should study the documentation: APEX_COLLECTION

    To recreate my example, you should:

    (1) create a report (interactive) on your collection

    SELECT *
       FROM APEX_collections
     WHERE collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION'
    

    (2) create a selection list page_item for the tables that you want to display (in my case, this is called "P38_TABLES")

    (3) create a dynamic action that triggers on the evolution of your selection list page_item. Dynamic action must be a parade of PL/SQL procedure the following code:

    declare
      l_query varchar2(4000);
    begin
      l_query := 'select * from '||:P38_TABLES;
      if apex_collection.collection_exists
            ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' )
      then
        apex_collection.delete_collection
          ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' );
      end if;
    
      apex_collection.create_collection_from_query
        ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION'
        , p_query           => l_query
        );
    end;
    

    Make sure that you add your page_item 'Page to send items' section.

    (4) add a real extra action that makes an update of the report area.

    Here are two photos describing the da:

    Yes you can do it. You just need to set * "Escape special characters" = No * in the area of 'Security' of the page box point you. But please be aware that this change could make your application vulnerable to XSS attacks in the case if users are allowed to enter data into the table that is used to fill the entries in the box.

  • Is it possible to create a style sheet in the APEX?

    Cow

    Well, mine is about 4 000 lines of code to cover all of the tables in my database, so I have a separate procedure in the package for each table.

    I'm going by calling a procedure doc_start that comes to generate the HTML page header, as follows:

    PROCEDURE doc_start
    IS
    BEGIN
    HTP.
    PRINT)
    '');
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    HTP.
    PRINT (')New system of mineral resources (NewMRDS) data');
    HTP.
    Print(' ');
    HTP. Print(' ');
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    END doc_start;

    Then I get calls to all other procedures for tables, then I just end with a doc_end procedure to add the required data for end to an HTML page:

    PROCEDURE doc_end
    IS
    BEGIN
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    HTP. PRINT (')');
    END doc_end;

    All basically, it's pretty simple, although a lot of time. The initial package of writing took me a whole day to write, and then I had to go back several times over the years to add some adjustments or other re-formatting.

    Hope that this help put you on the right track.
