list with letters/numbers circled and cut into square

I want to make a numbered list and an alpha list in InDesign CS5, which looks like this:

Untitled-1.png

The list would include A, B, C, etc. and 1, 2, 3, etc.

I applied the numbered list of paragraphs property. I am able to create a style of character for the letters/numbers in the list, which includes the color of letters and numbers, but InDesign does not apply the underline property to the numbers. I need the underline property to add the colorful square and the circle.

I can do it with a non-numbered list, type the letters/numbers by hand, but it's a hassle and tedious when I need to reorder the items in the lists.

Can anyone help?

There was a similar thread yesterday. It is not entirely clear if this is a bug (I think it is) or a feature emphasizes being a character set and automatic numbers are not recognized as characters in the same way that typed text, but the fact remains that underline and strikethrough do not work on numbers and bullets in a list.

You have two options. One is to use a paragraph NET and set a huge right indent, but this does not work too well for multiple-digit numbers, or I don't think it works very well with the letters in a proportional font.

A second option would be to find a font with the circle or the square into the characters and use it as part of a style of character applied to the numbers. I think it's the best solution, but it may not give you the colors you want if you need solid numbers on a colored background.

A third option would be to use an anchored object placed behind the numbers. It has the most flexibility, I think.

  • Procedures with photos / Multilevel list with bullets/numbers disappear in the browser

    OK, sorry if this has been covered. I searched the Internet and found none of the MLL matching my own problems.

    My goal everything has to be able to create procedures numbered in Robohelp webhelp that contains images such as that I created under. The problem is, I want pictures inserted without numbering or chips. I found that I can't do this because it breaks the numbered procedure, so what I show here, it's not not manually (which I won't do because my project is about 10,000 files.

    Down Time.png

    I created a multilevel list in Robohelp for procedures to help this need. I created this list containing a mix of chips and telephone numbers and nothing in front in order to have a procedure in a section with pictures to go with it (which of course does not break the numbering system and are not numbered, because it seems a little odd to have just a picture numbered step).

    Therefore, each line being a new and different indenting, here's how the list looks in Robohelp (left), and then how it comes out in the browser (right). I tried Chrome and IE and they come out the same.

    Multilevel list-RH.pngMLL In browser.png

    It seems that lists appear correctly in the generated CHM file, but I don't feel confident these multilevel use effectively the lists if they don't actually work when they use them in browsers.

    Does anyone know how to solve this problem of the list, insert or copy paste into a new line between numbered procedures that break them so that they have to remember each time?

    I'm not sure that I totally understand. I assume that for some reason you're opposed to press SHIFT + ENTER to start a new line without chip or number?

  • Problems with the HTML text and cutting!

    Hey everybody,

    This is my first post a lot! I have a very simple question but frustrating, I cut text in illustrator (object > slice > make), then to make this text in HTML (slice Options) text. Then I export my picture with other pictures behind this text using the 'Save for Web and devices' option to find that the "HTML" text has moved all art behind it!

    I have attached a picture of a very basic example of what is going on, as you can see all around this text has been moved, the text does not stay on top of the work behind it?

    screenshot.jpg

    I would appreciate any help on this problem, probably very easy to solve!

    Thank you very much!

    There is nothing "to"stay on top"- a slice is a slice and they are prepared automatically side by side. You can only assign a background color. I strongly suggest do you a little reading on HTML / CSS first. No offense, but you are using the wrong tool if you think that I could remotely anything like usable HTML code...

  • Why get USB keys mounted with letters of reader and others don't but are explorable?

    Windows XP Professional 32-bit, UK facility.

    I have a Sansa MP3 player too quiet when connected to a stereo - it turns out that European legislation limits the level of volume that passes through the headphone jack. Now I can reset the unit to tell him it is in North America and it is much stronger. Now even though when I plug it into Windows, it appears in the Explorer as an object can be explored, for example I open a window of the Explorer for her. But there is no drive path (if no copy of BACK and no copy of context (right click Copy to->).)
    If I turn it on in Europe, it mounts as a drive and much more.
    Is it a thing of Sansa firmware? Or y at - it a registry hack that will make me a drive letter?
    There are other weird things, like change in North America and I don't see the music files on it through the windows, but they are there and they play very well. Maybe that's one of the Sansa forums?
    Thank you

  • I use Envy 17 with a job posting and I need to be able to turn it on even if the lid is closed? Thnx

    Hey! Regarding my HP Envy 17 1085 eo. I use my Envy 17 with an external display, and I have to be able to turn on my pc, while the cover is closed (clamshell). It is possible while the pc is in "standby", while activating the mouse keyboard og - but Windows break mode standby after a certain time, leaving me frustrated as I then need to open the lid of my desire and press the button 'walk', to use the Windows. Is it possible somehow? Thank you very much!

    Hey dhalb_,

    Have you ever watched the Power Options window (start > type 'power' > click Power Options) where you can change when the computer sleeps (left)? As long as you stop the computer periodically (2 - 3 times a week, if you use it every day) it would be nice to never go in "standby mode" while it is plugged.

    For a while, I used a laptop as a desktop replacement with an external monitor and ran into the same frustration as yourself. I shut down my computer after each use if so I came up with a scheme where I could leave the screen all half open, just enough to be able to press the power button.

    If you prefer to go in standby mode, you can go to the advanced power settings (Power Options > change Plan settings next to the selected power management > change advanced power settings), extend your sleep and set "Hibernate after" connected to never by typing 'Never' in the field minutes. Click on apply and OK.

    I should mention that it does not extend the life of your computer to run constantly. Hard drive failure and the motherboard issues sees much more often on machines that are constantly running. Computers bogged down and run slowly when the memory is full. Memory erase them and will reset when the computer is turned off. Here's a link explaining more on the accumulation of memory and aging of the material.

    I hope these suggestions help. Please let me know if you have any questions.

  • Creation of names of users and storage space began with the numbers or _ $#.

    Hi all

    If the creation of users and storage names began with numbers or _ $# is fine. Are there any constraints or slandered oracle. ?

    After watching a few google links, I want to sum-up rule for the design of Tablespace:

    1. always create tablespace locally managed (management of the measure).

    2. never create tablespace with hundreds of small data files to avoid a slower recovery.

    3. the types of segments that are used in the same way must be stored together.

    4. the system must be designed for the most common usage.

    5. the regions should be exceptions.

    6 feud among storage space should be kept to a minimum.

    7. the data dictionary must be isolated.

    8. always give a name to the tablespace; so it may be easy to know what contains this tablespace.

    9 http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.2/index.cfm?TopicName=Recommendations_to_minimize_disk_I/O_contention&anchor=iooracle

    10. never use quotation marks double tablespace name.

    11 create the tablespaces explicitly using CREATE TABLESPACE rather than implicitly by creating a table without specifying a tablespace name.

    12. create an a tablespace less as temporary for user types.

    13 specify the suffix ".dbf" for names of applications datafile, '.log' for log data file names.

    14. set the default storage parameters to take into account the size of the typical object.

    15 specify PCTINCREASE 0. Exceptions can only be made with the approval of the Central s/n.

    16 AUTOEXTEND must be enabled.

    17 MAXSIZE must be set.

    After posting the links to doc, I want to sum-up rule for the creation of the user:

    1. always follow "Requirements Minimum for passwords"
    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/network.111/B28531/authentication.htm#CHDFDHAJ

    2. never use double quotes with username and passwords.

    3 assign a default Tablespace for the user.

    4 assign a Tablespace Quota for the user.

    5 avoid giving the ability for users to create objects in a table space, because the schema is the logical database for the user.

    6 enable auditing for many reasons.

    7 assign a temporary Tablespace for the user.

    8 identify the appropriate profile and role to the user.

    9. only letters, numbers and the underscore character are allowed in names. Although Oracle allows for $ and the #, they are not needed and may cause unexpected problems.

    10. all names are uppercase. Or at least unimportant in which case. Ignoring this rule usually leads to making reference to the tables and the columns very clumsy because all names must be in double quotes.

    11. the first character of the name must be a letter.

    12. keep meaningful names, but at the same time, do not use long_names_describing_every_single_detail_of_particular_object.

  • Is there a list of words COMBINED, the language pack, for example a list with English words and Dutch?

    In the Netherlands, we very often mix Dutch and English and sometimes in German in a document or data entry etc. I'm getting a little tired of change language every 30 seconds to check my spelling mistakes. I want a list/language-pack with all the English and German and Dutch words it contains. Is there such a list or can I do it myself?

    Moreover, I know that less would be less accurate, since I do typo in an English word that could possibly create a word correctly written in Dutch or German, but I'm willing to take this disadvantage.

    Never seen a spell checker dictionary combined. I probably have to build it yourself.

  • Why does not the meter of the quality of one of my choices of master password, regardless how I mix letters, numbers and non-alphanumeriques characters?

    I tried to create a master password, but it couldn't be done because the quality meter never accepted none of my passwords, even if I used a mixture of very complicated letters, numbers and special characters as well.

    There is no requirement when setting master password in Firefox. The password quality indicator is purely informative.

    If you try to fill the bar all the way, that's unlikely, unless you create a long password, or a mixture very complex of special characters, upper and lower case letters and numbers. Don't forget the password should be easy to remember and typed in, time after time. A highly secure password that is easily misspelled or forgotten is of no use.

    I recently bought a computer HP Pavilion (HP Pavilion 10:10 - e010nr). It was my first experience with Windows 9.1, but everything seemed to go OK. Then, yesterday when I had to retype my password, the computer began to run very slowly and then seemed to lock-up; It would not do anthing. I held onto the "button until the computer turns off and then restarted. When it restarted, it didn't go beyond the initial screen that shows "HP" in a blue circle and the small circle of the small white watch points there work but nothing ever happens.
