Is there a way to drop an image in indesign and then have captioned under that file name?

Hello! I'm looking to help a colleague in a rationalization process. We display the full page of images in an Indesign Document, and every time we drop and image on a page, then we change the caption under the file name. I was wondering if there is a way to automate this process? All the scripts available?

When you place an image you can activate the capture feature. There are the normal and live versions. The normal label creates a text is text, the live version creates a variable that would change if the image or the text of the meta-information changes, but it behaves as a single character which causes problems how the text will run in the text block.

What is drawn on the Meta must be set up before in the legend, in place option.

When you drag and drop an image from the finder or bridge you can not enable this option.

BTW I use another way that seems faster. I assign a shortcut to the command of labelling and when I imported the image, I click on this shortcut, and secondly, I apply an object style that formats the text block including the paragraph style which can be different on a dark or light picture or a graphic.

Normally, I edit all meta-information in Adobe Bridge, which is the fastest way to cope.

  • Is there a way to trace an image using Photoshop sketch?


    Hello, everyone,

    Is there a way to trace an image using Photoshop sketch?  I'm used to the use of a light box and tracing the images by hand which I can scan in Photoshop.  It would be wonderful if I could draw a picture in the Sketch show on the iPad Pro and avoid to analyze completely.

    I couldn't find a manual Sketch anywhere, and I wanted to know if this was possible before you buy the software for the iPad.

    I thank very you much for your time.

    Kind regards

    Chris

    Gawain,

    Sketch of Photoshop has layers of two pictures and a drawing layer so, Yes, you can place an image into a work plan and the trace on it.

    Here's how to put a photo into a canvas:

    1. a work plan of open sketch, press (landscape) Photo icon in the toolbar.

    2. which will open a selection of menu with three layers as well as the ability to shoot a picture on my iPad, take a picture, the files of my CC, market, Adobe Stock.

    3. Once you place the image, you can move it to the lower layer so you can draw on it.

    Hope that helps.

    Sue.

  • Is there a way to reflect the image taken by the spot Healing Brush tool?

    Hello

    Is there a way to reflect the image taken by the spot Healing Brush tool? For example, I learn to restore an old photo of a face. One nostril is damaged, so I want to use the other to replace, but the image of the nostril by the spot Healing Brush tool is back forward.

    Thank you

    Sally

    Hi Sally,

    It is the wrong tool to use, but rather to use the clone stamp. Open the control panel in the Windows menu and you will see many options. One is to reverse the cloned area. Like this. Put the clone on its own layer like that allows you to better position and apply a layer mask to cover whatever it is unwittingly cloned. Cloning should be done with a soft brush at around 50% opacity just to enhance the effect. When you have finished giving the layer clone a soft Gaussian blur as this smooth out the look. Then flatten to restore

  • I put 240 photos in an InDesign document using mini bridge.  Is there a way to hide the photos I used after I have put in my document?

    I put 240 photos in an InDesign document using mini bridge.  Is there a way to hide the photos I used after I have put in my document?

    I think Willi, and I even read your question differently. I thought you wanted to hide the images in Mini Bridge once they have been placed in InDesign so that you could keep track of those who you have (if you put twice the same image). If you want to hide in InDesign (as Willi read the question), his suggestion is very good. Another alternative is to use the shortcut to hide (command 3 on Mac OS), after putting the images, but before you click next to deselect them.

    I do not use Mini Bridge, so I can't help you there. If you want to use the full version of the bridge, you can use a Move command to move the selected items to another folder (temp), where they will not appear in your current folder. You can move after that that they all were placed. A bit of a hack, but it could work.

  • is there a way to continuously show the to, cc and bcc blocks when you compose an email?

    Seems simply not non-sensiques having to manually select the CC via the drop-down list / CCI via drop-down additional for each / every email which is composed.

    Is there a setting that makes so the TO, CC, and BCC always display in each e-mail while you don't have to manually set the fields in each email miss me?

    Thank you much in advance.

    There are six of one, half one dozen of the other. Yes, most email clients allow you to add multiple names to the To: box. So, you added Dave in the To: box with 5 others. It seems pretty hard to handle already, right? Difficult to scroll left and right to see all these addresses? You now rethink and decide that Dave should be in the Cc: list instead. How to move him? Your email client makes it easy to choose him, select, then drag-and - drop in the Cc: list? When a visitor on the Cc: list, it's easy to avoid the fall of Dave right in the middle of Charles? (Can you do this without using the mouse?) Or do you remove Dave of to: enter it again a CC:? Your client shows his full email address or just an abbreviated as "Dave"? Which of several instances of Dave in your address book is this one?

    In Thunderbird you just change its for: CC.: And you can see all of his email address. And Matt and I have shown you that is not necessary to select individually to: / Cc: / Bcc: for each recipient. And unlike the methodology of a single line while it is simple in Thunderbird to expand the address space to see as much of the address box as you want. Just grab and drag the top of the text message pane downwards or upwards.

  • Can I still create my site design by dropping the images, the texts and the text boxes or what I have to learn code?

    Can I still create my site design by dropping the images, the texts and the text boxes or what I have to learn code?

    Database coding (HTML & CSS) is necessary to get the most out of DW.   It of not an app drag & drop like Photoshop or Illustrator.

    If coding isn't your strong point, try Adobe Muse.  MU is for designers and non-codeurs enjoy working in a GUI.   You are limited with what you can build with MU.  So don't expect to do advanced stuff or you will not be disappointed.  But for the basis of hobby, charity or vanity sites, MU might be all you need.

  • "Could not complete the command image size because that file name is not valid"

    "Could not complete the command image size because that file name is not valid"

    Thank you!

    I had the same problem with you and tried to look around, but I solved it myself. One or two layers created by the insertion of your library which have been uploaded to the server cloud.

    When you open the file, you can see the warning as "recreate a link... blah blah your file" If reject you the message, you can still work on it, but you cannot resize, or drag all layers to other new file (tried).

    Everything you need that discovering the layers that are related to the server delegating and delete it. FACT.

  • I have a picture (written text) but there is a writing on the other side - is there a way to reverse the image to see the other side

    Hi, the technology is a bit beyond me so I need help please.

    I have a picture of a written text, but I see that there is also something written on the other side.  Is there a way to somehow reverse the picture so I can see what he says on the other side?  Someone says something on a reverse and I don't quite know what they are on everything.  Thanks in advance, Vince

    Can you give more details? How can you see the side 'inverse' of this image? I don't think that you are talking about 3D in Photoshop? If you mean that you see the text "mirrored", you can use, modify, transform and back horizontally.
