Of find/change GREP question

• counting in a find change grep

  I have a script that runs several find change greps and alert how many each grep search were made.

  This is the code:

  See section function () {}

  app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;

  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "the (section\\s +?). \\d+ ? [ \\.\\d+]?)";

  var changed = app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = "$1";

  Reference of the changed.appliedCharacterStyle = "cross";

  var changes1 = app.activeDocument.changeGrep ();

  If {(changes1.length = 1)

  Alert (changes1.length + "instance of 'the section' became 'article'.");

  } else {}

  Alert (changes1.length + "instances of 'the section' changed to 'section'.");

  }

  };

  No matter how many changes I know she took it returns 1.

  It also does not apply the character style to the entire reference. The character style is supposed to underline the Word section \d.

  He pointed out only half of the section of Word:

  section5

  Do not know what is happening.

  (1) make sure of course, you have the same name "cross references".

  (2) when checking a condition use double ==

  If (changes1.length == 1) {and NOT so {(changes1.length = 1)

• Find/change Grep can't find one instance per paragraph, where wrong me?

  Hello

  I use a find/change Grep to find any price with a comma and change this comma to a thin space (the newspaper style).

  But the Grep considers only the first instance of this paragraph.

  Example of text...

  "$200 $200 000 000 $200,000."

  text at the beginning of paragraph $200,000

  $200,000 at the end of the paragraph text

  $200,000 tab. »

  In the sample, the grep would miss the second and third prize on the first line.

  I use...

  Find...

  (?<=\$) (\d{3})\,? ({\d{3})

  also tried (\$\d{3})\,? ({\d{3})

  Set up...

  $1 ~ <$ 2

  Is there anything I can add to find these last two prices?

  I use this in combination with script Batch find replace, so different greps are set up for 5, 6 and 7 digits starting by $.

  Thank you.

  Try this,

• Problem with find/change GREP

  Hi, try to run by default find/replace InDesign AppleScript script to solve many formatting problems in a large document. One of them is occurences of a two-digit dollar figure followed by a comma (eg. "$ 10") that needs to be changed to have no comma.

  Use GREP I can pick it up by searching for "\$\d\d", but when I replace it with '\$\d\d' I get the string "\$\d\d". IE. "$ 10" becomes "\$\d\d" instead of "$ 10." I'm misunderstanding how works the part 'change' grep? Can someone advise?

  FYI the line in the search/replace support .txt doc is:

  grep

  {find what: "-\\d\\d$,"}

  {change to: "\\$\\d\\d"}

  {include notes: true, include master pages: true include hidden layers: true, any word: false}

  Remove commas after the price.

  .. What includes the extra backslashes to escape the backslash which are part of the GREP expression.

  Any help much appreciated!

  Thank you.

  On Grep Pallette, use below syntax to find two or more digit dollar figure followed by a text of commas,

  Search: (\$\d+),

  Change of: $1

• Find format preferences in a script of find/change GREP?

  Hi all

  I create my first script to search/replace to run GREP queries several at once. But I am struggling to find how to specify the Format to find: preferably in the script that can be in the usual find/replace dialog box.

  Here is an example of a line in my script. What I want to achieve is for the line search for words/characters who currently have [standard paragraph] applied and then change the format of a paragraph style particular, I called "team name"...

  grep {findWhat: "(.+) ', appliedParagraphStyle: '[standard paragraph]'"} {changeTo: '$1', appliedParagraphStyle: 'The team name'} {} / / apply style name team

  BTW, I use the standard FindChangeByList script that comes with Indesign. Any help/comments are appreciated.

  See you soon,.

  Marco

  Instead of the name of the style, try the object of paragraph style:

  grep {findWhat: "(.+)", .paragraphStyles appliedParagraphStyle:app.documents [0] [1] ""} {changeTo: '$1', appliedParagraphStyle: 'new style'} {}

• Find/change the question numbers and create the Table of contents

  Hello! I need help to find all my item numbers and apply a paragraph style so I can use them to create a Table of contents page.

  The sample numbers

  #12345

  #12345-5

  #12345-20

  #12345-ABC

  #12345/N

  I tried to enter #^? ^ ? ^ ? ^ ? ^ ? in the search/replace and but it is exactly 5 characters after the sign #. I wonder if you can find all characters starting by # and up until the last characters.

  Once I found all item numbers, how can I apply the paragraph style to have these characters after the sign #? Because I only want to show item numbers without the # sign on the Table of contents/Index page.

  In addition, I have InDesign CS2, which have no function GREP maybe I can do this without the GREP?

  I really appreciate any help. Thank you very much.

  Are your numbers by themselves in a separate paragraph? OTHERWISE you can not USE the table of contents feature to list all the numbers.

  If are, then just look at # in find/replace, then set it to change formatting a new paragraph style (you must create this style in CS2) that you want to include in the table of contents, then as you say, you can use find/replace once more on the history of the TOC to remove the # of all numbers.

• Find/change grep

  Hi all

  I need to insert a linebreak forced after the first comma in each paragraph. If the paragraph contains a comma, no problem but if theres more whether inserts all the af or the last (due to the nature of the grep).

  Is there a way to limit the grep for the opener?

  I tried the following:

  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ' (. +?,)';

  app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = "$1\n";

  and

  app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ' (. +?,) (. +?) [, *])';

  app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = "$1\n$ 2 ';

  Hope we can nail; (o)

  Search: ^(.+?),

  Change of: $1, \n

  The circumflex accent ^ stands for 'start of paragraph' so he and the lazy operator (as you have already done) combine to restrict the GREP to the first comma only.

• Find and replace grep Question.

  I'll put up paragraph styles and I'm changing anything with < CR > in a ^ p.  How do I do this with a string of grep?  I am wanting to add this string grep grep style in the paragraph styles.

  With GREP Styles you can not change the text, but the formatting of the text.
  You will need an action of find/replace with the TEXT or GREP find/replace.
