• Find the object in the text block

  Hi all

  How I was able to find my text frame contains an anchored object.

  Suppose I have a list of text blocks and want to check if a particular text block contains an anchored or not object

  Kind regards

  Alam

  The property of a text object pageItems gives you access to all

  anchored objects.

  So if you have a textFrame called f, for example, you would do:

  myAnchoredObjects = f.texts.everyItem () .pageItems ();

  for a list of all the anchored objects.

• Text on the stroke to the text block

  I was wondering if there is no way to force the text in a text block to be at the top of the race that I added to the text box. The descenders are cut and I have messed around with various options of baseline for the text block, but can't seem to find a way to make it work without making the largest text block which I prefer not to do.

  I saw a few solutions, but they all seem to be for earlier versions by using the settings that I can't find in the CC options.

  Any help would be appreciated! Thank you

• Resize the text without scale text block

  Hi people,

  Is it possible to resize a text frame without scaling the text in the 2014 AI CC SDK?

  I'm working on an AI CC 2014 plug-in and need to resize a text frame without scaling of the text. However, I'm not having a bit of luck to find how to do this. Is what I want to resize the text block in the Type area Options Panel makes, but I'm not able to understand how what classes/methods it uses, or whether they are still exposed in the SDK of.

  I tried to use sAITransformArt->TransformArt(), but I can't find a way to stop the text to scale with the text block. I considered, after processing, reformat the text which has been nationally, but that doesn't seem right.

  My current thinking is to move the text of the framework which should be scaling in a new block of text size correctly, and then delete the existing framework, but before that, I thought I would ask here see if do I it's harder it must be because I'm missing something.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  See you soon!

  -Jim Birkenseer

  You must use sAITransform-> (TransformArt) on the subject of track of the image of the text, not the entire text block.

  For example:

  AITextFrameType textFrameType;
  sAITextFrame->GetType( art, &textFrameType );
  if ( ( textFrameType == kInPathTextType ) || ( textFrameType == kOnPathTextType ) ) {
      sAITextFrame->GetPathObject( art, &art );
      AIRealMatrix sMatrix;
       // Set your matrix as needed here...
      sAITransformArt->TransformArt( art, &sMatrix, 1.0f, kTransformObjects );
  }
  

• Number of words and then pasting text into the text block

  I'm trying to create a javascript script that counts the words in a block of selected text, adds "WORDS." at the end and then paste at the beginning of this block of text with a "BOLD" character style applied. So he would look like:

  25 WORDS. Text text text text text. etc.

  I managed to find a way to create the character style, to count the words in the selected text block and give me an alert. But I'm not sure how to apply the character style and paste it at the beginning. Any help would be really appreciated. Here's what I have so far.

  Thank you

  -----------------------

  var curDoc = app.activeDocument;

  mySel var = app.selection [0];

  Create the style of wordcount

  If (! curDoc.characterStyles.item("wordcount").isValid) {}

  cStyle var = curDoc.characterStyles.add ({name: "wordcount"});

  }

  else {}

  cStyle var = curDoc.characterStyles.item ("wordcount");

  }

  cStyle.fontStyle = "Bold";

  //

  var mySelWords = mySel.texts.everyItem (). words.length;

  var mySelStoryWords = mySel.parentStory.words.length;

  Alert (mySelWords + "WORDS.");

  Hello

  further, through the selection, change the same way:

  var
       curDoc = app.activeDocument,
       mySel = app.selection,
       len = mySel.length,
       cStyle = curDoc.characterStyles.item("wordcount"),
       mySelWords, mString, curSel;
  
  if (!cStyle.isValid)
      cStyle = curDoc.characterStyles.add({name: "wordcount", fontStyle: "Bold"});
  
       while (len-->0) {
            curSel = mySel[len];
            if (curSel.hasOwnProperty ("insertionPoints") ) {
                 mySelWords = curSel.texts.everyItem().words.length,
                 mString = mySelWords + " Words. ";
                 curSel.insertionPoints[0].appliedCharacterStyle = cStyle;
                 curSel.insertionPoints[0].contents = mString;
                 }
            }
  

  Note that textFrame.words County is those visible only, so the other part of the text is excluded.

• out the anchor text block and copy its contents

  Hi all

  I have a script that will be able to anchor to InDesign text block and it works well. Now my problem is that I released that anchored text frames and then copy its contents the same position where the text block was at anchor.

  Here's what I do:

  1. find and block of text of a document (using the find object, anchored by its applied object style).

  2. release the anchored object found.

  3 copy its contents the same position where it was anchored.

  For 1 and 2 rep, I maybe able to do but point 3 I have no idea.

  Hope someone can lend me the time to solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  then, instead of myFrame.releaseAnchoredObject (); use myFrame.remove ();

• How the auto repeat 'position title (continued)' in the text block

  Hi guys,.

  I've looked everywhere and couldn't find it.

  Here's what I'm trying to achieve:

  I have a few blocks long text which flows into a framework of text block and I would like to have the title for each of the items be repeated first of all in the first line of the block of text on each page as follows (suite).

  I know that I can use master pages and can have a separated with my title text box. But then, if the number of page change, I can end up with a title (continued) where shouldn't.

  The next and previous page number line break does not work for me, because I need it to be the title of the article and it must be in the same frame of definition as title x.

  It's somewhat similar occurs when your table across more than one page. The header is repeated on each image.

  I really tried to find it but no luck. Whenever I have tryied the anwes only I got was to line breaks, next and previous page number.

  Much appreciated if anyone can save me.

  Thank you

  Mau

  I think that we know exactly what you're trying to do, and we told you how to do it in code.

  Word has a few features that allow you to have different headers and footers for section home pages and use them automatically when you set up a new section. This is equivalent to using two masters in ID and one without the variable grant your section start pages. The difference is that you have to do that yourself.

• Move the text block to another Page

  Hey,.

  I'm new to InDesign scripting, and I've been browsing the docs for quite awhile, but can't find how to move a block of text to another page.

  The closest I came was a .parentPage, but it is read-only.

  I have my frame on the first page of the document, how can I move, let's say, on page 5?

  myFrame.move (myDestinationPage)

• Prevention of the forms of text block

  When I draw a shape (box, circle, etc.) with the tool form - I usually insert columns with text inside them. The form is usually a boarder of the page and sometimes I have to change.

  Several times just by clicking on my text tool in the area of the shape transforms this form in a block of text.

  I need to find a way to prevent the form turns into a block of text.

  There are several ways to handle this. One is to turn off the preference which allows the tool to type convert images to text blocks.

  Another is to put these borders on their own layer and lock the layer.

  A third is actually use the feature to combine the border and a text frame, if it is appropriate for the page layout.

• Text wrapping will not be in the text block

  I am changing the content on a block of text in Illustrator using a JavaScript file.

  My method is as follows:

  changeLayer = doc.layers.getByName(textKeys[t]);

  changeLayer.textFrames.getByName(textKeys[t]).wrapInside = true;

  changeLayer.textFrames.getByName(textKeys[t]).contents = textArray [textKeys [t]];

  Basically, I set wrapInside to true and then I replace the content of the block of text with a string.

  However, rather than the text as you wish, Illustrator print everything on one line expands the size of the text block (and sleep) to adapt the text on a single line. Even when I put explicitly the width and height of the image in the script, it shrinks the text to fit on a single line in the rather enveloping framework. If I explicitly set the size of the police he then extends the framework once again, but only on a single line. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

  Good evening

  Don't forget that you have different types of linked text frames. In vba, you can find the property THAT allow you to show that read only 3 types of text frames aiAtraText, aiPathText and aiPointText

• Rotate the text with the character within the text block style

  I would like to apply a paragraph or character style to a certain character in a text frame. I would need to rotate 90 degrees in the framework, separate from the other text. Is this possible?

  Insert the text block in the block of text as an anchor and rotation you need.
