Reverse the text in InDesign

How the color of the text reverse when it is in front of a different color?
That is to say white text turn black when it passes through an area of white.
Is there a way to create this effect in InDesign?

You can do this in several ways: depends on what you want to do.

Character styles (you play with color and underline).

Anchored frame ("overlay" effect (French version)).

A way that I like:

You want, for example, treat the words in the text, and you want to do it quickly.

You insert a grep style in your paragraph style. For example:

I use a small [Javascript] that, once the selected Word inserts, before and after, both markers defined in grep style. Your Word is instantly processed (with a thin space before and after).

You can also use it to treat the same word (for example, home') in the batch with a regular expression:

Research: Home

Replace: ~.<>

Enjoy!

  • Background color for the text in InDesign

    Hey there ' All! I use InDesign CC 2014 and I need help!

    So I do a quick reference guide that contains headers that are color coded. Changes in content in this guide based on what product it is inserted, if I want to have these headers to be mobile. Normally I would just make a text box color that I need, but it is a GREAT text with a lot of text box.

    I tried the shape with the color of my anchor header, but then my head disappeared. Court to reorganize spacing each time, what can I do to make sure I'm not have in order to align the text in the header of the boxes any time there is a change? IOW, I want these colored boxes to move with the text. For example, using the chart below, if I add a number 3 to my disengaging Cruise Control, I don't want to have to respace AUTOPILOT and move the colored area. Make sense? I hope so. Thanks for any help!

  • Not able to reverse the text file in ODI

    Hi guru,.

    I tried to load the data from Oracle database to text file. But I am facing problem during file reverse text.

    The columns in the text file are not reversed in the ODI data store. I get no error.

  • How to place an image inline with the text using InDesign CS4?

    I'm writing the first draft of an instruction manual how two for some software.

    I'm writing the manual directly in InDesign CS4 and making screen shots that I'm making progress. I format the screenshot in Photoshop and export it to a JPG file.

    In InDesign, I double-click in the text box where I want to insert the image, go to file > place, get the picture, then press on open.

    Usually InDesign inserts the image at the cursor flashing in the text, but sometimes what happens is that no picture inserted and everything after it disappears. I get several empty text boxes and need to Control-Z to get back to where I started.

    Now I can put the image outside the text box and then manually move it to the text where I want to go, however when I export the file as HTML, then I need to manually move it to the appropriate area in Dreamweaver (when the image is placed inside the text box to the flashing cursor, the HTML file shows the image in the right place).

    I was able to insert the line in file with the text to a new paragraph mark, but sometimes InDesign doesn't let me do. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

    I don't know what I'm doing to prevent it from placing the paragraph mark and the blinking cursor (which is where I want it to appear).

    This is a recording of screen 54sec of my actions:

    http://storytechnician.com/temp/idcs4-place/

    Steps to follow:

    I double-click inside the text box

    I place the image

    everything goes

    I have a few pages scroll, and then return to the starting point

    I have to scroll through a page or double-click inside the text box then press return a few times, and the previous image, I put in this way is automatically pushed to the next page.

    I go back to point of original departure, try again, and it does not work.

    I've done it before, but now it does not work. I don't know what's happened prevents him from online to the location of the cursor.

    Help, please.

    Thank you

    It seems to me that the image is too wide for the frame. You can place it on the editing table, scale in the size, then cut to the Clipboard and paste it into the flow of the text.

  • Editing the text in InDesign CS3

    I am trying to edit text in an older InDesign file.  When I try to edit the text, the text cursor changes places pointed outside delimiter to a round and I can't select or change the type.  What is the change in the appearance of the average slider and how to change the text?

    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    This could explain why the tool moves to type on a path. ID think that you want to add more text on the lines. If the file has been saved with the text you entered, you're sol save a version of type without a modifiable version is about criminal (and we will not go into why you should describe the text initially).

    When you rotate or scale-1 it must be remembered that the left position is now the old x - width of the control, so if you want a wide control 200 at position x = 10, you you x 210.

  • Placing the text in TextEdit, formatting preserved

    Customer keeps me seending text it saves like TextEdit (or e-mail, which, when they are copied from TextEdit, does preserve, it is formatted).

    But when I place the text in InDesign, even when selecting "Preserve styles and formatting" it still appears as the default, all regular fonts no ital or "BOLD" and "BOLD" - ital.

    Any solution to this?

    You have a copy of Word? It looks like paste into Word and then place the file will do the trick. Paste from Word the same thing you describe thus:
