Several cross-reference Formats

Similar Questions

• I want to add tab stops to the cross-reference format to make my OCD, a solution of a single click, but the format never comes out right and using the tab key in the window of the dialog box to move the cursor to the next window.

  When you try to format my references I would add tab stops so that the format for the TOC works with the cross reference.  For example my format on the pages of reference is

  < $chapnum > - < $paranumonly > < $paratext > < $chapnum > - < $pagenum >

  With tab stops before the chapnum, between paranumonly and paratext and the next chapnum.  If the final result should look like

  4-16 speed vertical digital - primary Mode... 4-28

  Help?

  In the reference page, add a \t where you want a tab to be, i.e. \t<$chapnum>-<$paranumonly><$paratext>\t \t<$chapnum>-<$pagenum>

  Then, make sure that the format of paratag has the tabs tab placed at the correct locations.

  When you re - generate the table of contents, you should get the desired effect.

• Endnotes in Indesign using cross-references

  Hey all,.

  I'm trying to follow this tutorial using the endnotes in indesign:

  http://blogs.Adobe.com/indesigndocs/2009/03/endnotes_in_indesign_cs4.html

  In what it suggests, what appears in the document ends up being the full note:

  1 Salmerón, Loren The Diet Guide New Jersey: John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2002, page 56

  so that everything that I want to make is:

  1

  In his case, he could just make "1" appears. I note under reference dialogue format, his example shows "end note paragraph number. There is no option for me. Anyone know what it does I'm not understand?

  Thanks for the reply.

  Looks like this tutorial for step 4 details omitted the details of creating a cross-reference format. Click on the pencil icon indicated by a red circle in the screenshot of the dialog new references to open the cross-reference Formats dialog box, where you can create or edit cross-reference formats. Select the paragraph number in the list of formats provided by InDesign, then click on the '+' to paragraph number in double under the number of paragraph (1). Replace the note at the end of paragraph number name, as in the tutorial, or any name you like. Enable (check) for reference character Style, choose the style of characters superscript, you created as described in step 2.

  The "" notation in the reference format dialog box captures only the part of subsection the reference point to auto-numerotees. In your example above, it is supposed to be "1".

  Google search for terms like "InDesign create cross-reference formats", without the quotes, if you need more information about the several subtasks of reference mentioned here and in the tutorial.

• 6 InDesign cross-references cause mysterious line breaks

  In a paragraph with several cross references (7), 6 InDesign, the scrolling text to the next line, apparently without reason, even if there is room for the text on the same line.

  Here is my example:

  At the end of line 1): when I do a link to Unit 52, it makes the word 'article' drop down to the next line, even if there is room for it. (And also with 19, 22, when they are turned into links, they fall down.) If I remove the reference cross on "52" the word return upward on the same line.

  (1) animated and inanimate. This distinction affects how we use articles and verbs so we talk about in most of the units on the verbs and articles, but amongst the

  other places in the following units: 17, 19/B, 19/C, 21/B, 22/A, / 22B and 22 c /, / 23 c, 27 (used as an object), 52 (summary of articles).

  So after I created the 7th cross references, like this line breaks:

  (1) animated and inanimate. This distinction affects how we use articles and verbs so we talk about in most of the units on the verbs and articles, but amongst the

  other places in the following units: 17, 19/B, 19/C, 21/B, 22/A, / 22B and 22 c /, / 23 c, 27 (used as an object), 52 (summary of)

  Articles).

  It seems that 6 InDesign can't manage a number of cross-references in a single line.

  Have you ever seen this happen? Do you know what to do about it?

  Thanks for any input and help!

  I've seen it happen. I also posted about it here, and introduced a bug report, but I have not tested to see if it is still present in the CC of InDesign post-CS6 versions. Cross-references can cause goofy cloth, implausible, in conditions that I can't identify. However, your text will probably compose as you expect if you pass the composer of normal paragraph to the paragraph universal composer.

• help on cross Reference Type indesign

  Hi you

  I have a question. Is it possible does not show the number of the page where the reference is in the same page? in a sample is attached. Thank you very much! It's really important... pls let me know. Andrea Imbrosciano

  

  Hello Andrea, if you delete the text you are referencing, the cross reference will show as 'broken' in the Panel cross references. At this point, you can navigate to the reference, using the icons in the lower left corner of the Panel and to remove the reference. About changing the order of multiple references, they will appear in the order in which you create them. If I understand what you're trying to do, you want to combine, or concatenate almost references. (See tab 10, tab.11 and tab 12) on page 102. You need to play with the cross-reference formats to see if you can get the results of your search of. I did in the past, but usually end upward with a kind of workaround. There is no easy way to refer to multiple text boxes.

• Cross reference options

  Hello.

  I had a problem with my cross references and I was hoping to get the answer here.

  My problem is:

  When I'm adding a cross-reference in my document and to include the full paragraph, and page number, it says 'paragraph name page XX' most of my documents are in Norwegian, so I wonder if there is a way to chanage the language or phrases (""page "in this example) which are automatically generated by indesign for something in my language?

  Thanks for any help

  Rune

  You can create your own layout for reference.

  In the hyperlinks Panel menu, choose define cross-reference formatting.

  Select the format on the left that you want to redefine. Click on the sign that will duplicate the style and call it [Stylename] 1 +. You can rename it. Now use definition below box to refine the format in Norwegian name. Click OK.

  Now, change your reference to use this new format.

• specify the format of the cross-reference in read/write rules?

  How can I specify a cross-reference in the rules format of reading/with import xml document?

  Gary,

  If you want all occurrences of the xref element to use the same format, you can specify the format of an InitialObjectFormat rule in ESD or use a rule r/w in the form:

  element 'figref.

  {

  is part of fm of reference;

  format FM property reference value is "Figure."

  }

  If you want to use different formats and have a particular element to specify that one, you can set an attribute whose value is the name of format with a rule like:

  "xref" element

  {

  is part of fm of reference;

  attribute ' xref-fmt' is the formula of property reference fm;

  }

  In fact, if your DTD defines an attribute called 'format', default FM it uses for this purpose.

• Error of cross-references resolved in FM 10 but even ref-s working in PDF format

  Hello world

  I ran into a problem, I can't fix: when you open an FM file in FrameMaker I get an error message stating that the document pending cross-references. Find/replace control also reveals that all cross-references in the file are broken, but the pod of cross references, I can jump up to the right terminal by clicking on go to the source.

  At the same time when I want to record the book in PDF format, these same references in the PDF file work very well: they are clickable and lead exactly to the right place. The .book and FM files are all stored locally, so no network or sharing in question. Markers added automatically, is a kind of reference paragraph.

  Could you please help me find a way to fix the links that seem to work very well?

  Thank you

  Svetlana.

  > What is a wash of the MIFID and how do you do that?

  Maker Interchange Format (readable document FM markup).
  

  In FM10 & later, I think that it is a drop-down menu item, but what it does is:

  1. Save all the files under .mif to the [last] MIF format, including the .book
     (if by hand, save in place for FM and .book to facilitate this)
  2. Close all files
  3. open files (MIF)

  If you do it manually, to the .mif file names, remember to open the files body.mif first and save it back as FM before opening the book.mif file.

  This process at least to score and can fix or correct any data structure that are not valid MIF.

• Creation of cross references

  Hi all!

  I'm new in this fantastic world of Extendscript, but I've been using Framemaker since version 5.5.

  I'm working on some kind of reference Manager and it works really nice. I can list all the cross-references to the level of the book or document, select the cross-reference to appear in the active document and so on. I use unstructured FM.

  The problem I face is the creation of reference itself. I know how to create a cross-reference to the xref Guide, but I Don t know how to insert the xref in the content. I tried with NewAnchoredFormattedObject function with parameters of type object, format and textLoc . Also West of XRefSrcText property (string containg single ID:pgf_tag:text).

  The question is: can I use the same string (the content of XRefSrcText) in the form of text for the type of cross reference marker? Or just the text of TFP that contains the cross reference?

  I found several examples of using Framescript but I'm unable to reproduce the code by YOU.

  Thanks for reading me. I'd appreciate any help on this.

  Concerning

  Hello

  Your code does not work, but you forgot to update the cross-references in your document. To do this in the code, add the following line at the end of the snippet to insert XRef:

  doc. UpdateXRef (doc, newcrossref);

• Cross reference is deleted after generation in FrameMaker 9

  Hello

  I use 9 FM on a Windows XP system. I update a book and created new formats for references to the chapters. When I insert a reference in one of the chapters, it displays perfectly; part of the cross-reference is bolded and part is in normal, black police. But when I generate the files, bold is removed. If I want it to show up properly, I have to open the X - ref, then click on replace.

  Some examples of references that don't work:

  Annex < "BOLD" > < Hyperlink > < $chapnum >, < focus > < Hyperlink > < $paratext >

  Annex "BOLD" > < < Hyperlink > < $chapnum >, < focus > < Hyperlink > < $paratext > < default ¶ font > page < $pagenum > <>.

  < default policy number > < "BOLD" > < emphasis > < Hyperlink > < $paratext > < ¶ fonts default > page < $pagenum > <>.

  I tried to place the < "BOLD" > in different places; nothing works. I have also asked another co-worker to try it too. She has the same question; It works fine when it is inserted, but after the generation of the "BOLD" is removed.

  Thank you

  Rosemary

  You try to combine several character formats, which create replacements, for example or or . Don't do that FM doesn't really work like that.

  Create a beacon of uniqueness with the full format you need for content and use that instead, for example annex<$chapnum>

• Why my Panel references altho don't use explicit names for each cross-reference in the list?

  Creating a catalog.

  I've defined two 'the hyperlink destination' and using them as "cross references" in my table of contents.

  I'll add many of the cross-references more soon, but I need the Panel cross-references to the list of people with meaningful names, so I can find and edit easily.

  Otherwise, I might be better off just update numbers manually when the catalog is updated (yuck).

  Is there a way to Cross reference panel to use meaningful names without using the name in the visible text on the page?

  Here's what I mean:

  

  Just a sign dang sharp, since the format of my cross references simply entered a page number on the page.

  How can I know who is who? I don't. I need more information in the Panel references Cross.

  If I add some text to the definition of the format of the cross-reference, it is visible on the page, BUT it also added cross-references to the Panel.

  

  Close, but no cigar.

  I can't leave anything other that the corresponding page number appears on the page.

  Any ideas?

  I decided to believe there is no solution to the Panel Cross references give me a more explanatory list.

  At least I can highlight the text Variable in the doc and the Destination of the respective hyperlink is highlighted in the cross-reference panel. This will have to do.

  

• Problems with cross-references spots

  In FrameMaker 12, I can't reference spots to work, despite the help instructions. I created a cross-reference marker, then created the cross-reference to the marker, but he keeps inserting the entire paragraph and not only words from marker I want.

  For example:

  1. I added a marker of type reference cross to a paragraph in one of my FM files, called "user management".

  2. in another file, I created a link of my marker reference (special > referral source type cross, then selected reference markers my marker)

  3. in the type of format, I select position, which has the definition of < $paratext > as one of the constituent elements.

  Unfortunately, this procedure then inserts the text of the full paragraph, not only the marker text I want.

  I suspect the step 3 is the place where I'm wrong, but the help instructions are not specific on blocks of construction/Formats to use.

  Thank you

  Warren

  If you want to do this type of reference, then using a reference spot will work. Just create a x - ref format that has the text 'Click here for details' properly formatted and the link to the spot-xref.

  If you want to link to a custom text in the paragraph, then it's more complicated, but it can be done [although that may have a building block of $markertext would be the best way to go].

  1. Create a custom color that you will use to create a text 'invisible '. [do something bright that stands out on the page]
  2. Create a paratag for the text of x - ref custm and use this custom color.
  3. Using the color > views, assign this custom color to be invisible and visible in the view 6 in view 1 (default).
  4. Switch to the view 6 (these / 6) so you can see what you are creating.
  5. In the paragraph where you need the custom text spot x - ref, insert a framework anchored with a block of text it contains (better to create on the referring page, so that you can cpy & paste as neeed) value be out column (but adjust so that it sits on top of the exact place that you want to access). Enter the required text using the x - ref paratag.
  6. Change in view 1 to make the x - ref invisible text (these / 1).
  7. You can now make the x - ref to the "custom" text FM still sees the 'invisible' content, even if it never gets when you create the output.

• All cross references a new impetus to projects with &amp; #160, text overlays

  I work with RH 9. I produce Webhelp projects based on the FM books.

  This new book is based on the formats and existing projects.

  But one thing is new: there are many inserts of text.

  My problem: the file which includes text inserts corrupted references.

  They are underlined and have good color, but do not work. Each cross reference starts with & #160;

  What can I do? Any work around? Is this a known issue?

  If you can reproduce this behavior with a small model set of content FM, reported as a bug and send the files for the guys of the CHT support.

• Can I change a cross-reference without having view to recreate it?

  When the cross refer to the numbers on the same page, I leave the cross point to unique reference numbers ("see view 25"). When it is on another page, I use the paragraph and page numbers ("see 25 page 34"). But when my text changes, sometimes text moves, sometimes move the images and I need to change the cross-reference. It's quite annoying, I have to old rmeove and create a new one in the hunt for the removal of a list of 150 or more.

  Is there a simpler way? For example, put the insertion point in the cross reference, then an easy way to choose a different look?

  There is reference to updated and re-issued reference of choice in the hyperlinks Panel menu. Have you tried those? You can also change the formatting of a reference in Cross Reference Options.

• Cross reference file

  Hello ,.

  I currently create manuals/books wholesale with several files.

  Some information changes to manual; the size of the machine, pipe diameters etc.  That's why I create an xref file I come across all the variations of the machine.  This way I just open an empty file, fill in the information, update book and, usually, the manual is filled.

  This can be a bit hit and Miss however times, and recently I thought it would be better to put all the information cross-reference in a Master Page on each document, this way I can import the variants of all other documents.

  Does this sound right?  What do you do?

  >... to put all the information cross-reference in a Master Page on each document...

  Did you mean reference Page?

  We use RP Xref markers only for content that exists only in a PR of a file of a book.

  For items that need to be represented in multiple files of a book, we use the Variables defined in the first file of the book.

  RP or MP Xrefs become hyperlinks in the PDF file, but go nowhere, a minor problem. VARs became clear PDF.

  Xref markers of multiplication to several files is a matter of concern. You probably don't want replicate them important to MEPs or tr/s. If you paste an xref, it will be in the original file PR and not the current RP file, even if the marker may exist there as well. This can be troublesome to manage.

  The variables are relatively easy to propagate.

  Both are easy to manage, because you can delete those unused by removing all the, then hit [Cancel] when dialogged on those in use.
