In a primary text block text block

• C# / JavaScript how to set the primary text block?

  Hello

  I'm working with InDesign scripting API with c# for my work. I'm new to both the InDesign scripting API and using InDesign as well.

  I am building a gap of master, with blocks of text so that the text block on the left page of the cheese would pass in the block of text on the right page.

  
  

  I read there is the option block of primary text for the master spread, but I can't seem to understand how to use it.

  Is there someone who could show me an example of script code to define the framework of primary text for a master page/spread?
  

  
  

  Here is the code I have for now.

  The question I have is in line 53, where when I try to run it, it gives me a very generic error 'Invalid object for this request.', which leads me to believe I'm doing it wrong.
  

          public static byte[] CreatePageBasedOnCreatedMasterSpread(string savePath)
          {
              Application application = ActivateInDesign();
  
  
              // Create new document
              application.Documents.Add(true, application.DocumentPresets.FirstItem());
  
  
              // Get active document and change some settings
              Document document = application.ActiveDocument;
              document.DocumentPreferences.FacingPages = true;
              document.DocumentPreferences.PageWidth = 210;
              document.DocumentPreferences.PageHeight = 297;
  
  
              document.DocumentPreferences.CreatePrimaryTextFrame = true;
              document.TextPreferences.SmartTextReflow = true;
  
  
              MasterSpread masterSpread = document.MasterSpreads.Add();
              masterSpread.BaseName = "CustomMasterSpread";
              masterSpread.NamePrefix = "AC";
  
  
              //Set the document's ruler origin to page origin. This is very important
              //--if you don't do this, getting objects to the correct position on the
              //page is much more difficult.
              document.ViewPreferences.RulerOrigin = idRulerOrigin.idPageOrigin;
  
  
              Page leftPage = masterSpread.Pages.FirstItem();
              Page rightPage = masterSpread.Pages.LastItem();
  
  
              leftPage.MarginPreferences.Top = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Top = 10;
              leftPage.MarginPreferences.Bottom = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Bottom = 10;
              leftPage.MarginPreferences.Left = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Left = 30;
              leftPage.MarginPreferences.Right = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Right = 20;
  
  
              // Create a text frame. Do not add text to this, as this is a master spread text frame.
              // Link their flow together
              TextFrame primaryFirstPageTextFrame = leftPage.TextFrames.Add(document.Layers.FirstItem(), idLocationOptions.idUnknown, leftPage);
              TextFrame primarySecondPageTextFrame = rightPage.TextFrames.Add(document.Layers.FirstItem(), idLocationOptions.idUnknown, rightPage);
              primaryFirstPageTextFrame.NextTextFrame = primarySecondPageTextFrame;
              //Set primary text frame of master spread to be the two linked textframes
  
  
              primaryFirstPageTextFrame.GeometricBounds = GetPageBoundsWithMargin(leftPage, document);
              primarySecondPageTextFrame.GeometricBounds = GetPageBoundsWithMargin(rightPage, document);
           
              masterSpread.PrimaryTextFrame = primaryFirstPageTextFrame; //This causes the error
           
              return GetFileData(document, savePath);
          }
  
  

  I noticed the JavaScript API that is very similar to c#, so it would be useful if I get a response from JavaScript.

  Hi Michael,

  Basically, you can do something like this (in ExtendScript):

  //Store value:
  var storedPreset = app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame;
  
  //Let's set it to true:
  app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame = true;
  
  //Add the document, name the master as you wish etc.pp. :
  app.documents.add
  (
  
      {
          documentPrefreneces :
              {
                  facingPages : true
                  ,
                  pageWidth : "210 mm"
                  ,
                  pageHeight : "297 mm"
  
              }
      }
  
  );
  //Reset to stored value:
  app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame = storedPreset;

• Adding a block of primary text subsequently?

  Hello

  My question is if it's possible to add a primary text block to an existing InDesign document?

  I already started to add content and set up my styles of paragraphs etc., but recognized that a primary text block would be much more comfortable...

  Thanks for your help!

  I found the solution:

  Thank you!

• Copy the value of the text box if the 'primary' text box is not null or ""

  HI -.

  I have a form with text fields that should be echoed elsewhwere if and only if a primary text box is not null or "". ""

  So txtPrimary, txtSecondary, txtDependant

  If primary is not "" or "" then take value of txtSecondary and txtDependant set to txtSeconadary.

  As this develops, it may be that txtDependant not use if primary txtSecondary "" or "" otherwise txtDependancy will get the value of txtOther.

  Any direction/thoughts?

  I'm not sure that I follow all this, but it seems that the script should be:

  // Custom Calculate script
  (function () {
  
      var f1 = getField("txtAgencyFEIN");
      var f2 = getField("txtAgencyBusinessAddress");
  
      if (event.source && (event.source === f1 || event.source === f2)) {
  
          var v1 = f1.valueAsString;
          var v2 = f2.valueAsString;
  
          if (v1 && v1 !== " ") {
              event.value = v2;
          } else {
              event.value = "";
          }
      }
  
  })();
  

• Primary text block

  ... good, so now I used text primary and placed the word inside file block, now what? How do I change back to normal display? That is to say without all the pictures, because I want to edit a single page at a time.

• Eratic behavior: book, the main text blocks and Cross References

  I'm on InDesign 2014.2. Mac.

  I'm working on a fairly large book. About 14 chapters / sections, about 400 total pages. There are also hundreds of cross references, almost all of them to anchor references.

  The design of the book is as simple as possible. There is no graphics, text blocks only.

  I use a single master page, with facing pages, and a block of text type. I used it throughout the production of the book, and the primary text flow worked well, chapter after chapter. Pages have been created automatically, and automatically flowed text.

  Maybe I need to change the page size of the book, and I also have a lot of editing to do which will reduce a lot of the chapters. I wanted to make sure all pages use the main text flow to do that, go as gently as possible.

  To my dismay, I discovered that although I used systematically throughout the book master text streams, all but three of my chapters have inexplicably lost their text stream. All images in these chapters have converted into ordinary images. That I edit the book, it's playing havoc with paging and referrals.

  I tried to restore the flow of text in one of the first chapters. It's easy to do, in theory.

  • Move the first page off to the side frame
  • Delete all pages except the first page
  • Command-shift-click on the first page to restore the flow of the main text
  • Copy and paste the contents of the old frame into the primary stream restored.

  
  

  When I do, the pages to move properly, and I'm back to having a chapter with a block of primary text on each page. Unfortunately, this breaks all cross-references that refer to this newly reorganized chapter and all references to the front in this chapter.

  
  

  I tried to do all that I could imagine. Only remove the frames and not pages. Try without the busy book. Nothing works. I tried the command update cross-references in the book menu. Has nothing.

  
  

  It seems impossible to redistribute the text in a new primary master framework, without completely breaking the cross references.

  I finally found something that seems to work:

  • Create a new master page at the end of the document.
  • Go to the last page of the history of the chapter and the last history image a link to the text block type on the page that you just created.
  • In the pages palette, delete all pages in the document, with the exception of the master page that you created.

  All text will be redistributed within the frameworks of masters, and cross-references (to and from the frame) seem to be intact.

• Update table of contents (frame) in the primary anchor text stream?

  I understand that a table of contents of InDesign should sit on its own page or in a separate text frame, so it can be easily maintained and updated.

  Help of InDesign said: "avoid threading the TOC to other blocks of text frame in the document. If you replace the existing table of contents, the whole story will be replaced by the update table of contents. »

  Fine and understand. However, I'm working on a project where I need all the content (from the illustration of the cover of the last line) to sit in the primary sequences of the spread of master - including the table of contents.

  Here's what I've tried: I open the Table of contents dialog, made all the settings and click OK. Clicking on will now create a new text frame with the table of contents, which can be changed by selecting this image by using "Update Table of contents. So far so good.

  I cut this framework and then inserted as a framework anchored in the stream text main, just as I have anchor a table, image, etc.. However, after anchor this TOC frame, I can not more updated by using "update the Table of contents. It is just another framework, not recognized as the table of contents more.

  Is there another way to have a 'live', table being updated content that will float in the primary text flow?

  Thank you.

  Ariel, I think you should give up on e-mail responses - empty again...

  PlainMartin,

  I could make this work in CS6 (and I would consider another version that allows to drag the anchored object rather than cut and paste). Now the SHIFT key and dragging the blue handle in the main story, I could anchor the table of contents, and when the text cursor was in it I could update. Make sure you anchor in a separate paragraph that uses a style that is NOT included in the table of contents, or he'll start on update.

• Please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Text stream object and the master page

  I need to create a book. I did a master page with a page number, the text box and the header, made up of 65 pages in total.

  clicked on apply to all, he said , he asked, and each consecutive page has an 'A' on this subject, but no figure of page? And I clicked to place the text, the first page is visible, but none of the subsequent pages. There is a small top of the icon to the left of each page that says that if I click on it: "this story is the flow of the main text of the master", but there is no visible text, it did not sink on the page. Help! I am a new user of Indesign. I tried all the online tutorials, you tube, etc. Lyndas yesterday, but nothing covered this issue. Any ideas?

  We need to see a screenshot of the page master and a document page, but it seems to me that you put the page marker in a primary text block. I don't think it will work. Markers must be in an ordinary setting which does not thread with something else. You can put other static text in the frame with the marker, however, if you wish.

• Text master thread produces unexpected results on several images / pages

  Hello

  I would like to achieve the following: has two blocks of text (primary) on a master page with text flowing to the a-frame for part B (page 1), then to the a-frame to the framework B (page 2) etc.

  So I put two images on a master page, link them and put them in the main frame. After I insert a few pages using the master, the following events occur: page 1 is correct but after indesign page 2 starts linking not desired but the corresponding frames, will first until the end of the beach on the master page and then back all the way, so that the following sequence is created (the number is the number of page and letter frames) :

  1 A - 1 B - 2 A - 3 A - 4 A - 4 B - 3 B - 2 B

  While the desired sequence would be:

  1 A - 1 B - 2 A - 2 B - 3 A - 3 B - 4 A - 4 B

  As much as I saw it, Indesign allows only a single block of primary text / set image threaded by master spread, so it would be natural to expect that he correctly links the out port of page n to n + 1 page port. That's why I don't know if it's a bug I am facing or done something wrong.

  
  

  CC15 using with the latest updates (as of December 4, 15) on OS X.

  Any suggestions are appreciated.

  If I understand what you want to do, it could work better if you are primary executives, just put 4 images on master pages and link them 1A > 1 > 2 > 2 b a b. It should work with auto-flux (hold down the SHIFT key) when you place the text, but may not match pages automatically as you type with Smart Text Reflow.

• Smart Text Reflow stops working in the middle of my Documnet

  I broke one of the primary text on my master pages by typing a space inside character (which took quite awhile to see), but now I have overset text on the primary text with smart reflow power block. Why? And when I try to add a new page manually it does not contain any kind of textframe (primary or normal) that I expect to come from the main text on the master page frame. These two could be independent.

  Also, when juggling the Smart Text Reflow preferences turing on and off 'Delete empty Pages' document has just started gradually adding empty pages one after the other 70 or more before I noticed and off Smart Text Reflow and delete the pages manually.

  Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

  Signed, A.O.A.D. (always on a date deadline)

  So, I just corrected it to reinvest the end on the main text block. (Shift-click) Seems easy now. I guess that seen with text overset text reflow smart power threw me a bit. Everything is fine now.

• 2 text flow 2 individual images for column span column does not work

  Can I put in place of master pages so that each page has a 2 col frame and cover so setting column works?

  Thanks for the help.

  Jon

  OK, I think I know what is happening.

  Primary text blocks behave a little differently blocks of ordinary text on the master page. With a regular set of frames related masters, you hold down the SHIFT key when you move the text to enable auto-flux of an image to the image and have automatically added images and pages. Primary text blocks are designed to work with Smart Text Reflow and you simply click the cursor loaded inside of them and STR returns to add pictures and pages. If you hold down the SHIFT key while trying to text in a primary text block which frame is skipped, and new ordinary frames are drawn by using your column guides. You can see that cheek if you look at the cursor loaded – as soon as you press the SHIFT key, it will pass icon text in parentheses (to indicate that the text will be placed into an existing framework) the boom wave within a difficult angle (to indicate the text will be "automatic formatting" in a thread of new frameworks rather than use any existing framework).

  Set up your document originally with two columns, which makes your main text frame a frame of two columns, but this also means that if the main frame is ignored during the auto-flux, you will get two independent columns per page.

  Bottom line here is just a click away within your framework and not hold down the SHIFT key. And turn on Smart Text Reflow to primary in the preferences text blocks if you had it.

  Hi Vinnie2013,

  I see that you are having problems, block a phone number on your device iOS 10 messages. I'm happy to help you to get this working.

• FF 40 for Linux. Blank white page without control. Own profile fixed but causes blocks colored instead of the text in the address bar.

  Because the update to 40 FF lance a blank white screen with no controls, no toolbar or address bar. I can create a new profile in the Profile Manager and then launch firefox functional but a previous bug still exists, the text in the address bar is replaced by blocks of solid colors. The only solution I know because this is: config > gfx.xrender > toggle true to false, but on the relaunch firefox returns the white screen.

  2 should I proceed to report a bug, and where should I report it? On bugzilla? Is it easy to report a bug or find out if she is already underway on?

  The system I use is Lubuntu 14:04

  I found my own solution to the problem, which was caused by the incompatibility of the 40 FF with the Lubuntu versoin I used 14:04, so I've updated at 15:04 and FF still works, though only after the creation of another new profile.
