[JS CS5] How to get custom Page size

I was looking for the answer to this simple question but no way looking around.

I have an InDesign document with different page size for example at left of page width is PT. 621 and on the same document right page width is 837 points.

Now I need to get the width of the pages using script, but the app.documentPreferences.pageWidth return the standard document preset size (PT. 621) no custom page size.

One has the idea to get the size of page customized using script.

Thanks in advance

Mac,

as the documentation shows there are some new properties of 'page' for InDesign CS5.
Among those who are:

defines the unit of measure (number or string) readonly array limits Page, in the format [x 1, x 2, y2, y1].

So:

myPage.bounds

and pageWidth for the documentPreferences can be:

myPage.bounds [3] - myPage.bounds [1]

unless myPage is transformed (e.g., rotation and/or sheared or scaling) with:

myPage.transform)

void transform (in: CoordinateSpaces, from: varies, withMatrix: varies [, replacingCurrent: varies] [, consideringRulerUnits: boolean = false])
Turn the page element.

var d = app.activeDocument;
var myPage = d.pages[0];

var oldPB = myPage.bounds;

var rAngle = -45;
var sAngle = 40;

var myTransformationMatrix1 = app.transformationMatrices.add({counterclockwiseRotationAngle:rAngle});

myPage.transform(CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES, AnchorPoint.CENTER_ANCHOR, myTransformationMatrix1);

var myTransformationMatrix2 = app.transformationMatrices.add({clockwiseShearAngle:sAngle});
myPage.transform(CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES, AnchorPoint.CENTER_ANCHOR, myTransformationMatrix2);

var newPB = myPage.bounds;

$.writeln(oldPB);
$.writeln(newPB);

Now oldPB and newPB differ a lot.
So, the question remains: what is a reliable way to show whether the myPage was or was not turned against documentPreferences. pageWidth or if my page is of rectangular shape at all. See the ability to add a wide angle of the transformation matrix. Also see screenshot:

I print a lot of thank you notes, which are the size of page 6 x 9, and the margins must start lower than the middle of the page. The problem is that the printer won't let me in the custom page size, rather it wants to print A4 size or format card index or one envelope size. How can I make the printer recognize the format of the exact page?

D110 printer custom page size

I have a PC of HPE-400y under Windows and Office 2010. "I have a document in Word that has a size of custom page 5.5" x8.5 ". It will not be printed on a paper 5.5x8.5. In Word when I select Preview before printing, the D110 shows up the print, the page size as 8.5x11. "If I click on the page and go to"more formats of paper and dΘfinir the page size to 5.5x8.5, the box shows custom page size 5.5"x 8.5" with one "! "in the box. When I click on print, it prints it centered in the middle of a page of 8.5x11.0.

So I have shows the properties of the D110, and saw that the driver was list as Micorsoft. So I download the driver full features on the HP site. It made no difference.

If I go in Word and open the document and select the printer preview and select Microsoft XPS Document Writer printer, the size of the page shows that education 5.5 x 8.5. If I then select the D110, it shows the size of the page as letter 8.5 "x 11".

So, how can I print 5.5 x 8.5 page size in the D110

HP Chat has solved my problem. We open the print properties, then choose the features tab. You click size, and then in the drop-down list, click Custom... It then opens a window of the custom page size. In the name field, enter the name you want the custom size to call. Change the width and length you want, and then click on SAVE and then on OK.

I then went in Word and the name that I created in the custom page was there. And it prints correctly.

3. If the user account control window opens, click on continue.
4. On the Forms tab, select Create a new form check box, and then type a name for the new format of paper in the name of the form.
  
  Figure: Forms tab in the properties of the print server
  1. Create a new form
  2. Name of the form

NOTE:

Supported paper sizes vary depending on the printer. If you enter the dimensions custom that your printer does not support, the new custom paper size does not appear when you try to print. Check the specifications of the printer for your printer for more information on supported paper sizes.

Questions regarding the process of implementing container/control. How "parent of filling" and how to get the actual size of the control?

I'm writing some UI component custom waterfalls. I went if the document several times and still have two questions:

1. is it possible to adjust the width of the control to fill the container parent without specifying the number hardcoded in pixel? I see many example of code uses '768' as hardcoded width.

2. I understand that the 'preferred size' could be ignored in some cases. Is it possible that I can get the actual size of the control on the screen programmatically?

3. is there any signal was issued when a control container/finish covering all of its child nodes? How do I know what size of a control is finally decided?

Thank you
mdodd wrote:

(1) you can use (QML)
```
horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Fill
```
or (C++)
```
myControl->setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment::Fill);
```
This will cause control occupy the entire width available to its parent. However, keep in mind you may have to use this property on all containers of parent to the node root to get the width of the full screen.

As far as I KNOW simon_hain is located on the other two issues.
((2) & (3) I just dug around and you find LayoutUpdateHandler would do the job:

https://developer.BlackBerry.com/Cascades/reference/bb__cascades__layoutupdatehandler.html

mdodd answer on question 1) is correct.

I can't believe they made a separate category for such a common task. Framework of stunts have had some serious consistency problems, that's what I feel.

Thanks to all who have contributed to

How to print custom paper sizes

I tried to print the DIY wedding programs. Sizes are 5.5 x 5.5, 5.5 x 6, 5, 5.5 x 7.5 and 5.5 x 8.5. I have windows vista 64-bit system and my printer is d411c HP envy series. Can someone help me with this?

Hey stacie0004,

The pilot who moved with Envy D411c series printer doesn't have the ability to run custom paper sizes. However, you can use a different driver such as the HP Deskjet 6980 or HP Deskjet 9800 driver to perform these print custom print size.

For more information on how to use a different driver click here.

Make sure that when you select the properties of the printer to the printer to select run as administrator > printer properties to have access to change the driver. It is a difference of Windows Vista over other versions of Windows. I hope this helps.

How to get the physical size of the screen?

Hi all

How to get the physical width and height of the screen (not resolution) in inches or in centimeters?

Is there a method to do

Thank you very much

Display.getWidth () and Display.getHeight () you will get the number of pixels.

Display.getHorizontalResolution (); and Display.getVerticalResolution () to get the pixels per meter. Then by dividing appropriately you can find the actual size.

How to get the real size of the screen?

Hi all

I want to get the size of the BACKGROUND object screen AREA.

I tried to call

my_main_screen.getMainManager () .getVirtualWidth ();

or

my_main_screen.getMainManager () .getVisibleWidth ();

But they always return 0.

How to get this size? Thank you!

Hey there. You can summarize this article:

sector screen explained

then you replace in your test screen
```
 protected void onUiEngineAttached(boolean attached) {
        String width = String.valueOf(getMainManager().getWidth());
        String height = String.valueOf(getMainManager().getHeight());
        Dialog.alert(width + " : " + height);
    }
```
That you will get the result. On my 9630 Simulator, I saw the following values for the width and height: 480 and 333 respectively.

I hope it works for you.

How to get a Page break before Inline TOC in EPUB?

I export an epub book file. The table of contents are created correctly online, but I can't yet find a way to get a page break right in front of her.
In the export-> advanced EPUB Options, I chose Split Document-> export tags to paragraph Style to light.
The header of the table of contents (saying "Table of contents") has the paragraph style "TOC direction.» In panel-> paragraph styles change all the tags to export, I checked the box for 'Split EPUB' next to the 'Table of contents for the topic' style.
But after exporting, there is no page break before the header of the table of contents.
How can I fix this?
Thank you very much in advance for any info.

Basically, I think that you are doing it correctly. I met the same problem. What I found is that the title of the table of contents PLACE (using the page layout > Table of contents function and place it on the page) will not work to make a page break. This is a special type of object, because it can be updated by the update command Table of contents.

You need to do a work around: you need to create a "Table of contents" in a separate frame and apply the paragraph title style Table of contents.

In the style of table of contents, include not happy for the TOC title. Check out the screenshots below of my OCD.

By separating the "content" in its own frame, it works in EPUB:
