InDesign - newbie question - I can't select several objects...
Shift + click only selects an object at the same time, it turns off when I select the next object... By dragging the marquee of the editing table always selects the page frame. Is there a setting somewhere to be changed?
And where is hidden the Lasso tool? It work?
Thank you!

How can I select several images contiguous hundreds of thousands in my organizer of items and copy them to a USB key so I can share with a family member who doesn't have photoshop?
I fear that even if I find a method to select and move a batch of photos, images can be in a format that his computer is not supported.

If I understand correctly...
The photos you have posted in a particular order (probably the result of a selection). You can select contiguous files by clicking the first item, and then, with the SHIFT key, click the last item you want. That should highlight your contiguous files.
Then, you use the function "export" in the file menu.
In the dialog box, you have several useful options: file format, compression, the file size, the possible change of name and the destination. This destination can be a USB key or a Dropbox folder, as suggested by hatstead.
If you have a large number to select, it's usually possible create a search with various criteria so that only the desired files are indicated.
If you are not satisfied with the sort order (chronological, filename, import batch), I suggest to create an album. In an album, you can manually sort you want by moving the thumbnails in the navigation area. (Depends on your version of elements).
Then all you have to do after that selection should select all (Ctrl A) and to export.

How to select several objects on the layers panel in Illustrator CC
I have a work of guge and I need to select a small group (about 10-100) of objects from 4000 bunk and then group objects ' em/split-to-layers for ease of use (this is an infographic of the human body for medical institute)
There IS NO way by selecting in the Web because they are overlapping and sometimes not visible at all.
in CS5 there was a function to select several objects to the icon selection Alt + click - move on the right in the Layers panel.
Now the mode duplication towers - on when I try to run it.
Then.
Ho I select several object without having to click through thousands of them? (I need to drag-select)
IM totally frustrated.
As long there is no deliberately locked object, you can do the following:
Drag on the lock column in the layer panel
Object > unlock all (there is a shortcut for this)
-> unlocked objects are selected

How can I select the objects and remove the other objects by using the selection path
I know that I am able to do this in photoshop. Select an object, lets say a group of letters just by ctrl clicking on the thumbnail of the layer, then put another layer of more selected a group of letters, then go on the other layer (not the Group of letters) and pressing DELETE. I hope I explained it well, otherwise, here is a video that made a good explanation of it.

Display the menus drop-down InDesign CC, but tools can be selected - running in El Capitan
I trashed preferences and caches, but this did not help. I can see the tools (the menu fly out) but I can not choose the tools found in the fly-out. A little stuck. Help, please!
Well, I've found a workaround. Considering that, before, I would choose a tool with the pointer (but who would choose the tool in the menu drop-down), I discovered that if I pressed the option + command (Mac) buttons while selecting the tool on the fly-out, there select the tool and make it active. So, problem solved immediately. (In fact, using the keys in this way, I expect to divide all the tools, so they each have their own individual box - I have the screen space to do.) (If I remember correctly, Adobe Pagemaker (wow, remember that?) lets you do this.)

I have over 100 tables, each with about 40 individual cells that need to be revised. In each cell, there are 2 numbers stacked. The top number is "BOLD", the light at the bottom. My client wants that these figures transposed, with the new higher number as "BOLD" and the new substantive issue being as light. As you can see it will be very long and tedious to do.
When I try to choose the number of albums, the 2nd number below is selected as well. Is there a way to select only the most important numbers in the cells, copy and paste them under the bottom numbers, and then change the font on both?
I inserted two graphs as examples. The first 'Original' and the second 'publishes customers' to help illustrate my problem. Please keep in mind that I know little about scripting. I can open the AppleScript editor and that's all. I'm working on it in CS3. Please help me.

You are welcome! (Remember to press the button that says 'Response').
The problem of font style is a well known, you can set the style of a font if that really exists. To fix it, change the background lines
table. Rows [Row]. Cells [Cell] .paragraphs [0]. FontStyle = "Bold";
apply evenly to the 2nd paragraph
table. Rows [Row]. Cells [Cell] .paragraphs [1]. FontStyle = "Regular";
TO
table. Rows [Row]. Cells [Cell] .paragraphs [0] .appliedFont = "universe LT Bold Condensed Std\t67";
apply evenly to the 2nd paragraph
table. Rows [Row]. Cells [Cell] .paragraphs [1] .appliedFont = 'universe LT Std\t57 condensed. "
(Off the top of my head; it is, first you give the name of the font family, then a tab-'\t' in Javascript-, then the font style).

Importing a large amount of text in InDesign (Newbie question)!
Hi all
I'm new to InDesign and would appreciate some advice/tips on the best way to transfer a large amount of text from Microsoft Word into an InDesign document. I was tasked to create a very simple pocket-sized book, whose content will be a series of business acronyms (700 +) and their definitions (imagine a very simple dictionary). As you can imagine there are a lot of text in the Microsoft Word document, so any advice on how to transfer everything as quickly as possible would be really useful. Or, where appropriate, it would be easier to use another program?
Can you paste/import all - or chunks-a document word at once? If I format a master page will be Adobe InDesign paste the text in the number of pages required? Or do I have to do it page by page in a Clipboard?
Of course, I don't expect InDesign to format the text perfectly on every page, I want to just throw everything at once and then go back and he put all this.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Concerning
Matthew
File > Place... and navigate to the Word file. Show Import Options to allow you to preserve the formatting of Word, or throw, or card styles styles in your document of identity.
If you have a block of text on your master page, place the cursor loaded above the area of the image on your document page and watch for the cursor change if it is surrounded by parentheses, then hold down the SHIFT key and click. If you do not have a Master frame (and more experienced users will tell you that more than 90% of the time a block of text type is more hindrence than help if you set your margins correctly), hold down the SHIFT key and click where you want the top of the first column to get started.
In both cases, ID will add pages as necessary to place the entire document and thread text across all frames. If using frames of masters, they will be linked and overrridden on the page of document automatically, otherwise, your first image will begin where you click and extend to the bottom margin and succeeding frames will fill the column guides (so talk to your margins correctly).
ID is a professional software and you really need to spend time to learn how it works. A good starting point is the help files. Another is Visual QuickStart Guide of Sandee Cohen of InDesign. If you prefer video training, Lynda.com has good content.

Newbie question (DispatchEvent can't main Application)
Hello world
I am trying to send an event from a component mxml (CompB) to interact with one another mxml component (CompA), and they both live on the Application (addChild) of the hand, but it does not seem to have reached the main Application.
There is no mistakes or tricks...
I think it could be a syntax error.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated!
Here is my code... (condensed to only show what is necessary)
CompB:
" < = xmlns:mx mx:Panel ' http://www.Adobe.com/2006/MXML "
creationComplete = "creationCompleteHandler ()" >
< mx:Script >
<! [CDATA]
private function creationCompleteHandler (): void {}
videoDisplay.addEventListener (VideoEvent.COMPLETE, videoCompleteHandler);
}
public void videoCompleteHandler(event:VideoEvent):void {}
dispatchEvent (new Event ('videoComplete'));
}
[]] >
< / mx:Script >
< / mx:Panel >
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----
Main application:
" < = xmlns:mx mx:Application ' http://www.Adobe.com/2006/MXML "
Initialize = "init ()" >
< mx:Script >
<! [CDATA]
import com.CompA;
import com.CompB;
private var myFancyCompA:CompA;
private var myFancyCompB:CompB
private function init (): void {}
myFancyCompB.addEventListener ('videoComplete', completeHandler);
addChild (myFancyCompB);
}
public void completeHandler(event:Event):void {}
Alert.Show ("Success!");
myFancyCompB.visible = false;
}
[]] >
< / mx:Script >
< / mx:Application >
When I run the application, and the video ends, no popup alert...
I narrowed down it to the expedition or the listener.
I feel that the event is not that they prepare properly.
Thank you!!
DK
Your event dispatching component sends the event at the top of the hierarchy of the application. If the parent is the application he will hear it. If your component is buried a little further down bubbling (set to true) allows him to go up the hierarchy until you reach the next level. You can stop it bubbling in some points using stopPropogation() or stopImmediatePropogation().
However, can I still add to thid question HarUI, or someone else and ask why bubbles considered bad practice. I've seen other applications do. If you want to send an event at two levels, so to speak, you listen to so and re ship at each level.
What is the best practice for this?
Thank you very much.

Newbie question: I can save the conversation in MP3
I have e260v1.
Here's the report card "digital audio standards: MP3, WMA, Audible *, Protected WMA (DRM)" "
I noticed that when I record a conversation, it is in WMA format.
The transcription software that I use on the PC like MP3. I can go through a conversion I guess, but it is there by chance a way to get the Sansa to record in MP3?

Edit/PS. It records in .wav, .wma not.

Another newbie question: (how) can I move files into/out VM?
So, I have my old image of workstation XP running on my new Win8 workstation.
Let's say I have a file on my new computer and want to copy in my VM world.
I could send email from one to the other, but is there a more direct way?
'Share' a directory between the host and the VM without using Windows on a network?
Or should I turn on the networks of working groups and doing it this way?
(I see that after you install the player my Win8 Task Manager shows two additional Ethernet, what with that anyway?)
Thank you
Josh
You can configure shared between operating systems using the Industry Standard SMB/CIFS file sharing or the VMware Shared Folders feature. The latter is easier for those who do not understand the network. Take a look at the "transfer files and text" in the documentation.
For other network cards, see the documentation! Specifically Chapter 7 "Configuring network connections" in the getting started with VMware Player (PDF).
Also take a look at: Presentation of products types networks hosted (1006480)
