• Problem with CS4 paragraph indentation styles

  Problem with CS4 paragraph indentation styles: specificities of the indentation suddenly APPEAR differently but reading the same thing (in the paragraph style palette) on page 5 to 6 and beyond. (He has no character style applied to text and no change to the page margins. The same master page is applied to all.) On page 5 when I pull the box down, the type is indented correctly, but when I flow on page 6, it goes to a different print and looks bad for the style.

  Both frames have the same applied object style? Have you checked text to overlay text block options?

• second line to the paragraph indented using styles?

  made anyone know if its possible in Indesign to do the second line of the paragraph indented using styles?

  I'm working on a book and I put the first word of each paragraph to be slightly larger and a different font to the rest of the paragraph. I did it using a style nested with the paragraph style. I also want to do what the second line is indented from the amount of space to the first word on the first line. This isn't problem doing this maunally but I want to find a way to define a style for this so that I can compose the book like this.

  any help is appreciated!

  Looks like you're talking to "drop words".

  On this page: http://in-tools.com/plugin.php?p=24

  In addition to the commercial product, there is a (simpler) free script on the page to create using drop caps.

• control the indents in numbered paragraphs

  I have a paragraph called NumberedStep Style.

  Under Bullets and numbering he uses the list Type: numbers

  I have defined as left alignment

  Indent to the left =.25

  First line indent - 0.1875

  This gives me the effect I want which is my number hanging out there on the left, and then a small space, then my text begins. Whether the text should wrap the 2nd, 3rd etc lines all the alignment with the first, as well as a need it. With the exception of a circumstance that the mess by perfect universe:

  If I have an object with wrapping text coming from the left, he pushes the text above and creates a large gap between the number and the beginning of the first line (which I can fix it quickly by adding a new tab). But what I can't fix, it's that 2nd, 3rd etc. lines are now aligned under the number and not under the first line I would. I cannot yet understand a manual workaround solution let alone a paragraph style that will do it automatically.

  Wish I could join a graph to illustrate; It is difficult to describe.

  Joel reminds me to add the Indent here under the number format, that did not work, but I managed to get this to work in two stages. First is to define the format numbered with no paragraph indent and fixed width instead of a tab space, then run a GREP replacement search to find the first character of a paragraph and add a dash to the character in front of it here:

  

  You would be sure to use non-proportional and tabular figures, and will break down when the number of digits is changed.

• How can I get the first line of a paragraph style indent, but others not in withdrawal

  I created a style of paragraph indented on the first line of each paragraph. In most of the books, at the start of the first line of a chapter, this line is not indented while the rest are. Is there a way to set up in InDesign CS3? Is the only way to make this work is to manually go out the tab at the start of each chapter?

  2 paragraph styles.

  1 paragraph style has no dash

  2nd paragraph style has dash

  set "next style" in 1st paragraph for paragraph 2e style style

  the "next style" value in the style of paragraph 2 to "even".

  Existing text.

  Select all of the text

  Right-click on the 1 paragraph style and select apply style then next style.

  New text (typeing)

  Start typing with the selected 1 paragraph style. When you press ENTER to start a new paragraph, the style will switch automatically to the 2nd paragraph style to what manually enable you return.

• How can I indent a paragraph WITHOUT creating spaces above or below?

  I use Dreamweaver CS3 on a Macintosh G5 running OS 10.5.5.
  
  I chose a new document HTML (Dreamweaver opened as a CSS) and pasted the text in a MS Word document.
  
  When I 'dash' THROUGHOUT the text, everything remains the same except that it's ALL indented.
  
  BUT when I 'dash' single paragraph while paragraph is not only back, BUT there ALSO appears an extra space before and space after this paragraph.
  That this fact is inserting < blockquote > before and after the paragraph.
  
  How can I 'dash' a paragraph without appearing before or after the paragraph?
  
  Also is it easily possible from the page design?
  I tried to insert a tag by pressing the button 'tag' on the keyboard but that does the same thing as using the feature of "withdrawal" (which is also inserted spaces before and after the paragraph).
  
  BTW: I am a novice, so please try to make it as simple as possible.

  I wonder if what you are really wanting to do is dash all
  paragraph, not the first line.

  It is a collection of first line blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

  It would be a paragraph indented blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  bla
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  bla
  blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
  bla

  If the second is what you want, use CSS according to the instructions to set the LEFT
  MARGIN (left margin) for the amount you want to put in the background, like 15px.

  If this isn't what you want, do what I did not write this.

• How can I import a Word text, including paragraph withdrawals?

  I use 7 Captivate.

  I need to import the text of a series of documents written in Microsoft Word.

  When I copy and paste most of the formatting is preserved. Bold, italic and underline import perfectly, but I lose the paragraphs indented. They all are aligned to the left.

  Is it possible to import the first lines indented paragraphs?

  Thanks in advance.

  Interesting Lilybiri; But what I see as a 'bad practice' is charging $600 for a program that cannot do some of the basics that many others do it without flinching.

  Moreover, the last time I checked InDesign were used to create mLearning programs. Thanks anyway.

• Next withdrawal of paragraph Style misbehavior.

  I'm trying to implement some paragraph styles, but they are wrong to behave.  Style in departure known [Cap], which is basically the updated paragraph shaped by a drop cap.  I have created a modified version of this style to use as the next style, it is basically the same, except there is no drop cap and there a 12pt on the first line indentation.

  When I apply the character style and the next style, it is only the 2nd paragraph indents, but not the rest.

  How can I fix?

  In the second definition of style, your style should specify the following Style: [style].

  Have you thought about doing that?

  

• Why can't define paragraph ball in the standard paragraph style?

  I want to configure my standard paragraph style so that I can quickly apply the individual paragraphs balls - using MY favorite dashes - without having to create a new style to the paragraphs of the ball. I tried to change the settings of the standard paragraph, with no document open style, but he doesn't seem to accept my choice of dashes. First of all, I selected bullets and put a dash, but then the default paragraph with bullets. When I pass the ball setting back to "none" the only thing he keeps is the last setting that I chose for the tabs. (At the same time, which changes the default tab for all paragraphs setting.) But when I create a new doct and start a paragraph of the ball, the hyphens by default always a.25 /-.25 and any tab setting LOWER a.25 results in the updated first line indented for the tab setting, but the rest of the paragraph indented a.25. There seems to be no way to change default indentation for bullets without creating a new paragraph style. And usually I'm fine with that. But I thought that I would have a default Quick using the standard paragraph style. Am I missing something or is it just not possible?

  Here is a Visual/verbal screenshot to help explain:

  

  Let's see if I understand differently from others. You want to apply bullets manually from time to time without having to select a new style, you would do this by pressing the button bulleted list in the Control Panel, and you want the settings for tabs and indents, other than the default. Is this correct?

  Far as I can tell there is no way to do it. You cannot configure the settings for the chips unless the text cursor is active or if you set a style, there is no way to set up the new default values. You don't want to not set parameters whenever you need a ball, then either you type the balls by hand, tab and insert a hyphen character here, which is actually a lot more work, or you go ahead and set up the style. You can access the list of style in the menu drop-down control panel, or you can add a keyboard shortcut to give you quick access, or press Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) + entry for quick access to apply and start typing the name of the style (almost as fast as a keyboard shortcut).

• Indents (?) box of predefined text

  I work with InDesign CS3 and revision of the files of a partner.  How can I remove a default paragraph indent, which seems to be in place with each new text box, I have create within that file?  Your response is appreciated.

  When you draw a new text frame, if there is a selected paragraph style, (targeted) in the paragraph Styles Panel, the frame is automatically this style. I suspect that's what you see.

• Get lists to indent properly in Firefox

  Hello

  We have recently reviewed our style sheet for WebHelp overcome the problems we've seen in some browsers. We found in the KB, we can overcome the extra indentation for lists in Firefox by setting the padding. However, we have a different problem from Firefox with indented lists. We have an indent18 style that indent paragraphs 18 px. When we apply the numbering or bullets to paragraphs with this style, numbers and bullets dash with the text of the paragraph in IE but not in Firefox. In Firefox, numbers and bullets are still in our left margin, and only the text of the paragraph indented.

  I tried to adjust the padding and margin specifications left in the stylesheet for the style and OL or UL, but nothing seems to make this problem go away.

  Has anyone another seen elsewhere or find a solution? Should use us different styles to the items in the list? If so, apply us the style first, then select the numbering, or apply the dialing and then select a style for each item in the list?

  Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

  Hello

  Solutions cannot be complicated stuff. There are a few things you need to do (I assume you are using Robo8):

  0 save your projects! You must make a few changes that cannot be undone.

  1. teach all authors also use appropriate lists:

  i. click the button in the list, do a right-click and choose Bullets and numbers, go to the custom tab and select the list you want.  Small scale riot

  II. Create HR multi-level lists

  2. create a list style to each paragraph that is used in a list. The convention of Robo7 is LI.p -. Add all the styles in that style. You can use this convention or something like that, because it defines a relationship between the style of list and paragraph.

  3. Add LI P {margin left: 0! important} to your stylesheet

  4. use a find replace to give your list of all object classes, example:

• shall be replaced by:

• This way you can update all of your lists within minutes. Just to understand what paragraphs are used one create a find and replace operation.

• Indented text drop

  Using Office HR 4.0 and Word 2000. When I create a printed output, the text of my drop-down area hyperlink is indented 0.5 inch extra, I don't want to. I'm mapping my style HR Normal to my own Word template and calling the new style NormalNDS. NormalNDS is not indented. I changed the Word document template parameter to "automatically update document styles". However, the NormalNDS style does not update for those paragraphs that were in the drop-down list boxes. I can manually reapply the style of each paragraph indented, but it is very time consuming. Any suggestions?

  Ok. Close HR and open Word and open the copy of the Mapping.dot Style that is in your project. go to Format | Styles and formatting and find the style of the text in the drop-down list. Change the color red. Closing to save all the way and then regenerate your document to prove that it is picking up the new color.

  Assuming it is, HR to close and reopen this model and adjust the indent, use a hanging indent layout if you need to. To the point, it should be OK regarding indentation is concerned.

  Confirm it is and we'll go from there.

• How to align the second line of text

  

  Hi all!

  View text after hyphens - please I would like the second line of the text ('sees. ) http://collectifkoa.com ") to align with the first line / with the dash." Hope this has meaning!

  Welcomeeee suggestions, thank you!

  This is commonly called a "hanging indent." Set up the style with a left paragraph indent equal to where you want the text to line up, then add a negative withdrawal of first line of the same amount.

• Forced to threading in text/table cells

  I'm having a problem with the text and the cell table in CS5.5 cutting at the end of the box and creating a thread to another box...

  He is past, so irregular and very frustrating! It is possible that I changed something in my settings, but I can't figure out what it could be! Suggestions?

  OK, that makes more sense.

  Why the busiest for text to disappear like this you are have applied No Break to the entire block of text, so it can not break, or you used breaking between words and break tuned spaces, even once prevting a line to be able to break anywhere. Then comes the indents indents of paragraph or dashes of framework, which will leave no space in the column or leave it too narrow to contain the text of the size you are using, and then there are the keep Options which may require the full text to stay together and is not a sufficient height in the frame to maintain , or there is a restriction to start on an odd or even page that does not exist. These are not mutually exclusive, and more of a problem might be present.

  Pen history in story editor, so you can see and select the first words of the overset text and check for No Break and nonbreaking spaces, and then check the parameters of subsection tha to dashes and keep options. I don't think you have any withdrawal weft worry here (did ' t really look like paragraph indents, either).
