Quick way to assign the IDs table header cells to data?

Acrobat X (10.1.9)

For the accessibility of tables with complex headers, is there a quick way to assign the ID of the header cells to data associated with them?  I have not found a way faster than go to one cell at a time.

All tags already have an ID, this question is how quickly assign the ID of header cells to all data cells in a row or a column.

Better yet, is there a function or plugin that looks like to a table column and line and automatically assigns the headers for all data cells?

I used the Table Inspector in Acrobat and several years of the CommonLook plug-in version. Both allow you to set several properties for all the cells in a selection. And they act as if they fortunately put header IDs for multiple cells, but after clicking OK and watch the cell properties, TI is not set for any of them, and CL only sets it to the first cell that has been selected.

I prepare a PDF file of scientific reports for Section 508 compliance. Often, they are hundreds of pages long and got the results of large tables. Some clients insist on complex headers. Cell by cell is surprisingly long.

I am running the latest version of CommonLook and manages to assign very well identification tags.  You can select multiple cells and assign them to a header.  You can also select the same cells and assign them to another heading using "Append". This will add the new header, without deleting the header already assigned.  In earlier versions Append has not worked for me.   That's what you need, if you have complex tables for a long time.  If you get the latest version and this isn't the case call Technical Support, as the plugin does not work correctly.  The Touch Up reading order tool does not.

I sometimes create a white/hidden text for the header text that spans several columns and then create individual to keep them, but I wouldn't rely on it for long tables or use it as my main method. It's a pretty quick solution in some cases - or if your author likes to let in line 1, column 1 white, you can create your own invisible header for the screen reader.  But it is too difficult to verify, and not the best route to follow. Also the hidden text is considered a no-no by some as it is supposed to be a drop out / drop behind or mistake to layout.

  • Is there a quick way to show the pixels per inch for lots of images?

    Each year, I need to send a bunch of pictures to a printer, and I want to ensure that all have a resolution of 300 pixels per inch. Check each picture one by one in Photoshop by Image = > Image size is a bit tedious. Are there quicker ways to display the setting ppp for a large number of images?

    David

    Not sure if you are on Windows or Mac, but if you use a Windows machine in Explorer details you can view the resolution.

    Just do a right click upward in the row that contains the column headings (name, Date, Type, etc.) from here if you go down to more it gives you a list of huuuuge of what it can display for you right there in Windows Explorer.

    I hope this helps, unfortunately, if you are on a Mac I can't help you =)

  • Quick way to change the appearance of hyperlinks

    Hi guys,.

    I am looking for a quick way to change the hyperlinks have a rectangle invisible around recangle visible with blue color clear. I have 20 links it will take me five minutes to do it by hand, but nevertheless is a tedious task and if the number of links that will be more times in the future.

    I did a search and found some sort of a Script in Indesign Secrets, but I don't know if there are 20 links (I have little idea of manufacture and adaptation of scripts, in addition to the light blue color, I want) it's worth the time. What do you think? Is there a quick way without using the script. I have ID CS4.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    If you want visible rectangles of reader by default, just select all the links in the links Panel and change "hyperlink... options. "(retractable menu) from the invisible to the visible (do not change any other field).

    Do not forget:

    -for large bays you need an additional step of conversion before summing up the table of numbers I32

    TdeV1,

    With your extended description, I know now exactly what you mean. I am facing similar situations frequently, where I have several paragraphs that I need to paste it into a single element, then divide each paragraph in its own element.

    Unfortunately, FM has no native functionality to automate this process, despite the way it must be pretty common need. In my case, I'm a developer FDK and hacked together a small plugin it does. ExtendScript could also be used. If you don't want to do programming, then the other option is a conversion table. You will need to paste the content in a document completely unstructured, run the conversion process to structure, then copy the items newly covered in your DITA topic. You cannot run the conversion process on a document that currently has any structure.

    So to summarize, you must make some scripts/programs or learn how to build a conversion table. If this interests you, find conversion tables in the Structure Developer's Guide. In this case, it would be an exceptionally simple conversion table, perhaps even just a single line. If you have to do this process several times, I think it would be worth your time to study.

  • Three blocks in the same way, belong to the same table

    Hi people,

    I am trying to find a way to make this work. I have currently 3 blocks on the form even where the first block is on the main canvas in blocks 2 and 3 will be on separate bunk canvases. According to a column value (Radio button group), I'll show stacked canvas 1 (block 2) or stacked canvas 2 (block 3). Unfortunately, all these elements must remain in the same table. I also keep them in separate blocks because some of the columns must be in two blocks.

    Landing up, which happens is that before INSERT trigger pulls the two blocks (since BLOCK_STATUS of the second block's NEW as well) and I'm landing by creating two records which is obviously a no-no situation.

    I tried the trigger for INSERTION WE with null, but then what's going on, it's that nothing is saved.

    For any idea or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    I use Forms 9i.

    Have a great weekend.

    Thank you!

    Perhaps this - make sure that a single database block, which has the "mirror elements' (use to synchronize it with the Item property).

  • Using the quick formula to update the pay_element_entry_values_f table

    Hi friends

    I have a requirement to substitute an input value of element with a value obtained from a quick formula.

    I know that formula quick results used to fill the table pay_run_results and pay_run_result_values.

    Is it possible that I can use the quick formula for updating the tables pay_element_entries_f and pay_element_entry_values_f

    Thank you

    Yes, you can do it.

    Just call a formula within your formula and in the service function, you can write the pl/sql code you want.

    So, you can use the input element in the pl/SQL API.

    Just note that even if the input values are updated that are not considered payroll (at the time of execution of the payroll)

    It would be only on the other (or additional payroll runs)

  • best way to avoid the full table scan for clause "column is zero.

    I have a query with is control null, and because of that it performs a total scan of table (in millions of rows in the table)

    SELECT id, x,
    LAG (id) OVER (PARTITION BY userid ORDER BY has had place, id) as p_id,.
    FROM MyTable
    WHERE X is ZERO


    What is the best way for me to avoid the full table scan. I have indexes for the X column and other columns.

    Thank you

    Hi Vasif

    NULL values are indexed if the indexed entry also includes a value non-zero.

    If you create an index such as:

    CREATE INDEX mytable_x_idx ON mytable (x, ' ');

    ensure all null values for the column X are indexed and will therefore potentially use the index to search for null values, assuming of course the result set is small enough to justify the use of the index in your query.

    I have spoken previously on my blog:

  • Quick way to enter the scene to capture screen/framebuffer

    Hey, I work in the video coding ANE - everything works fine on iOS, except a HUGE bottleneck.

    Forfeitures 1 framework composed of MovieClips/layers etc is super slow, because the only way that I know that use BitmapData.draw, which traces of course everything including the effects etc., which is really slow for example on the iPad 3.

    In my case, grabbing the frame ASAP is super important because I'm doing video encoding in real time. On the side of the DONKEY everything is optimized, using AVFoundation with pixel buffer pools etc but AIR he kills with the draw method.


    When fooling around in DONKEY, I made a list of views that AERIAL use on iOS and saw that the entire application is running in view GL. Could AIR provide a method to capture view GL somehow? I tried hacking around it the donkey (glReadPixels, who I know is slow, but still does not work because the framebuffer is empty at the moment where Im calling it DONKEY). Theres also a way to fix the framebuffer texture I think and I have the content always ready, that would be great - I'm not sure I can bind this texture to the framebuffer to AIR well (this didn't not test yet, but seems unlikely).

    I even managed to catch a screen of DONKEY, there is a new iOS7 method that can catch all UIViews, but this is unfortunately still slower than AIR.


    + I'm newb OpenGL. It would be cool if AIR took advantage of the race in the GL layer and provided a method to access the memory location with a texture/GL image that could be used as a capture of screen/film etc.



    Answering myself, I managed to solve this problem after reading tons of tutorials and SO questions and answers

    Basically, you need to create your own FBO backed texture inside the DONKEY. Inside the donkey, you have context of OpenGL in AIR which is a good start.

    Whenever you want to capture pictures directly from AIR, you must intercept made air - you call the donkey on event ENTER_FRAME, bind your FBO backed texture. Let the rendered in AIR (fortunately AIR rebinding it is own FBO if you make an FBO at least once, I don't know why exactly). So AIR makes you happy in your FBO backed texture, next Frame you can only access data with glReadPixels or doing things even funkier if you must.

    It is also possible to make this texture return to the screen to 'emulate' AIR made because you lose it for a while, during the capture. You must make a quad with this texture. It is also good to remember the ID FBO of AIR (until you link your own) and when done with capture liaison AIR FBO back so he can resume his normal rendering.

    It is much faster to rely on BitmapData.draw and deliver pixels in your DONKEY in general, especially for me as I am also with texture caches so I don't even call glReadPixels which, in itself, is not the fastest method around...

    Hello

    We are the migration of 11g CL8MSWIN1251 to 12 c UTF8.

    The DOUBLE clause indicates that the field is the same format that the C language, data type DOUBLE on the platform where the access driver is running.
