STATIC LEGENDS: ALIGNMENT / SIZE OF TEXT BLOCK

CS6 ID.

I've never used before static legends, and I have two questions:

1. when I create a legend it automatically creates a block of text which is about 4 times larger than necessary

2. the paragraph Style is set to Center justify, but legends align the image.

Is there some setting I am missing?

May be that the two images are selected in the layers panel? This legend is just an image?

    We can set the auto sizing preference:

    app.preferences.setBooleanPreference("text/autoSizing",
      !app.preferences.getBooleanPreference("text/autoSizing"));
    

    You must run the script before adding tetFrames.

  • Legend field size changes when the cursor moved legend

    So weird, I don't even thought it, but here it is:

    In VI attached, I have legends of the parcel next graphics, if I can put checkboxes next to them for the turning on or off the channel display.  In the third, I need to include the sliders, but when I did the legend of cursor visible and moved (it automatically appears on the side, under where I put the legend of the plot), the legend of plot in size changes.  It is shortened, which is annoying, but also means that it is more aligned with the checkboxes.

    I tried to use the PlotLegend:Height property and managed to _read_ it is, indeed, evolution, but I can't put it (or rather, I can't do it to _stay_ together).

    Even more strange: when I open the file on my laptop, the problem of size change does not occur, BUT the legend of the plot begins with a different size of the boxes!  I know that I can use 'Objects to scale with the Panel', but I've always shied away from that, due to problems of size and text beside it, since I am defining the size of the Panel, things really should be the same size, anyway.

    Because of the issue of the different-monitor-size different, I don't know if the version of the file's "modified" screen will show the problem, but I have attached, in the case.

    Any ideas?

    specifications that might matter:

    Desk at work: machine card Dell with Windows7 64 bit AMD Radeon HD7470 graphics LabVIEW 2012 SP1

    laptop at home: Dell Latitude E5430

    Thank you!

    Well, it's certainly weird - it does on my PC as well. I have no explanation for it.

    Perhaps a solution you can use the checkboxes in the visibility field integrated instead. You wouldn't need a separate control.

    Right click on the legend of the plot and select 'Visible Elements' > 'plot visibility Checkbox.

  • 389 pages. Text blocks too far to the left, but...

    But I use different teachers for different parts of the book and some blocks of text have been made, longer and shorter, so bottom of page will be same.

    Photos, too, are not centered.

    So, do put everything by a page-by-page and push the text (and photo frames) to the right, or...

    Help, please? Thank you.

    You don't need to change the size of the page.

    How the works of adjustment of layout is that sanpped bjcts guides will remain broken guides when you change the position of the guide. This means that if available adjusts lying is initially disabled and reset you the margins on your masters to match pages where the blocks of text are now, you can then allow the adjustment of the layout and margins for new values of resting and text blocks, for her are aligned old margin guides , will be moving and even change the size if necessary to stay magnetized to the new locations of margin guide.

  • Need help with the alignment of the text

    I don't know the answer to this question is simple, especially since I have no chance of finding the same question asked previously.  I want middle align text so that it is centered between the top and bottom of the box / text field created using the "text" tool  Frame on the left is simple: I just click on the button "align left" on the text panel.  There is no button to the top, in the Middle, or align at bottom.  In fact, when I'm done with this question, I'll go ahead and present it as a new idea!

    I also need to do the same with the text I add the vertical menu widget (menu manual buttons)... If there is a big difference in the way in which this is done, please let me know.

    Here is an example of what I'm willing to do.  Yes - the bottom image is a composite, then please ignore the spaces at the beginning of the text.  I also wanted to "align middle" instead of "align center".

    Text_Alignment.jpg

    Thank you!

    If you want to center align text vertically, use top padding spacing Panel and change the desired number of pixel values (depending on the size of the text block).

    Also, you can use whole pixel values absolute for all major (i.e. 16 px) values rather than the values of percentage (120%) that are managed differently in different browsers.

    Here's a screenshot of the sample with settings that worked for me in my case where the text appears to be centered in all major browsers.

    You can also watch follows her thread that should answer most of your vertical alignment related research.

  • How to bind the text blocks between pages?

    Hello

    I searched all autour for this, and I'm guessing that the answer could be so simple that no tutorial it doesn't even mention:

    How can I link the blocks of text between pages? I made a block of text in each master page and then connected one left with the one on the right. Indeed, all of the text in the document is linked from the page on the left of the right-hand page. But how do I link the page on the right with the following two pages 'below' in the document?

    If I'm not clear, here is another attempt to explain: I'm going to insert a lot of text in a document, and I already know the size and the type of text block, I want the text inserted. When I put the text in the left side, it connects (goes on) the block of text on the right side. But it stops there. So I have to manaully through both pages, which connects the right page "at the top" with the left 'below', page by clicking on the image by clicking on the small arrow in the lower right corner, and clicking on the next page below. There must be a way to organize it in master pages or in some other way?

    Thanks in advance for helping me with this problem of small size, but huge!

    Best

    Two things...

    For "automatic formatting" to work with Captain linked frames page, you must NOT release the Master frame before placing the text, and you must click inside the image area, not any sort of guide.

  • Maintain the spacing between multiple auto size of text fields - w/screencapture

    I make a list of a column of classes that have different lengths of title and description. All fields are resized automatically, and set the minimum height of a line of text, formatted in the correct font. Is there a way for these fields to show flexibility while maintaining the spacing between them?

    Hi Sno-Isle,

    This can be done, if you really need.

    For InDesign CS6 and especially the trick are:

    1. you need a space framed at the bottom of your text block, which gives you the distance to the text in the following image.

    2. you have to stack all text blocks in a "column and align them to the top of the column

    3. on each block of text has a text wrapping

    Here is a screenshot of my inDesign German 2014.2 CC:

    Open the layers panel to change the stacking order of your text frames.

  • C# / JavaScript how to set the primary text block?

    Hello

    I'm working with InDesign scripting API with c# for my work. I'm new to both the InDesign scripting API and using InDesign as well.

    I am building a gap of master, with blocks of text so that the text block on the left page of the cheese would pass in the block of text on the right page.


    I read there is the option block of primary text for the master spread, but I can't seem to understand how to use it.

    Is there someone who could show me an example of script code to define the framework of primary text for a master page/spread?


    Here is the code I have for now.

    The question I have is in line 53, where when I try to run it, it gives me a very generic error 'Invalid object for this request.', which leads me to believe I'm doing it wrong.

            public static byte[] CreatePageBasedOnCreatedMasterSpread(string savePath)
            {
                Application application = ActivateInDesign();
    
    
                // Create new document
                application.Documents.Add(true, application.DocumentPresets.FirstItem());
    
    
                // Get active document and change some settings
                Document document = application.ActiveDocument;
                document.DocumentPreferences.FacingPages = true;
                document.DocumentPreferences.PageWidth = 210;
                document.DocumentPreferences.PageHeight = 297;
    
    
                document.DocumentPreferences.CreatePrimaryTextFrame = true;
                document.TextPreferences.SmartTextReflow = true;
    
    
                MasterSpread masterSpread = document.MasterSpreads.Add();
                masterSpread.BaseName = "CustomMasterSpread";
                masterSpread.NamePrefix = "AC";
    
    
                //Set the document's ruler origin to page origin. This is very important
                //--if you don't do this, getting objects to the correct position on the
                //page is much more difficult.
                document.ViewPreferences.RulerOrigin = idRulerOrigin.idPageOrigin;
    
    
                Page leftPage = masterSpread.Pages.FirstItem();
                Page rightPage = masterSpread.Pages.LastItem();
    
    
                leftPage.MarginPreferences.Top = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Top = 10;
                leftPage.MarginPreferences.Bottom = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Bottom = 10;
                leftPage.MarginPreferences.Left = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Left = 30;
                leftPage.MarginPreferences.Right = rightPage.MarginPreferences.Right = 20;
    
    
                // Create a text frame. Do not add text to this, as this is a master spread text frame.
                // Link their flow together
                TextFrame primaryFirstPageTextFrame = leftPage.TextFrames.Add(document.Layers.FirstItem(), idLocationOptions.idUnknown, leftPage);
                TextFrame primarySecondPageTextFrame = rightPage.TextFrames.Add(document.Layers.FirstItem(), idLocationOptions.idUnknown, rightPage);
                primaryFirstPageTextFrame.NextTextFrame = primarySecondPageTextFrame;
                //Set primary text frame of master spread to be the two linked textframes
    
    
                primaryFirstPageTextFrame.GeometricBounds = GetPageBoundsWithMargin(leftPage, document);
                primarySecondPageTextFrame.GeometricBounds = GetPageBoundsWithMargin(rightPage, document);
             
                masterSpread.PrimaryTextFrame = primaryFirstPageTextFrame; //This causes the error
             
                return GetFileData(document, savePath);
            }
    
    

    I noticed the JavaScript API that is very similar to c#, so it would be useful if I get a response from JavaScript.

    Hi Michael,

    Basically, you can do something like this (in ExtendScript):

    //Store value:
    var storedPreset = app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame;
    
    //Let's set it to true:
    app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame = true;
    
    //Add the document, name the master as you wish etc.pp. :
    app.documents.add
    (
    
        {
            documentPrefreneces :
                {
                    facingPages : true
                    ,
                    pageWidth : "210 mm"
                    ,
                    pageHeight : "297 mm"
    
                }
        }
    
    );
    //Reset to stored value:
    app.documentPresets[0].createPrimaryTextFrame = storedPreset;

  • Problem with the text block, put in place when it is used on the page number marker

    Hello!

    I would use the text block on the marker page number on the master page in Indesign. The text block should change width when increases the page number. It does not work. What happens is that when the number of page moves a two-digit figure, the numbers tightened itself (compressed on top of each other) and the block of text changes size unless I drag on it (which means I have to manually unlock the master page first).

    I'm doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

    Thank you!

    Altogether! So, you can use a rule of Pará to simply do it!

  • Eratic behavior: book, the main text blocks and Cross References

    I'm on InDesign 2014.2. Mac.

    I'm working on a fairly large book. About 14 chapters / sections, about 400 total pages. There are also hundreds of cross references, almost all of them to anchor references.

    The design of the book is as simple as possible. There is no graphics, text blocks only.

    I use a single master page, with facing pages, and a block of text type. I used it throughout the production of the book, and the primary text flow worked well, chapter after chapter. Pages have been created automatically, and automatically flowed text.

    Maybe I need to change the page size of the book, and I also have a lot of editing to do which will reduce a lot of the chapters. I wanted to make sure all pages use the main text flow to do that, go as gently as possible.

    To my dismay, I discovered that although I used systematically throughout the book master text streams, all but three of my chapters have inexplicably lost their text stream. All images in these chapters have converted into ordinary images. That I edit the book, it's playing havoc with paging and referrals.

    I tried to restore the flow of text in one of the first chapters. It's easy to do, in theory.

    • Move the first page off to the side frame
    • Delete all pages except the first page
    • Command-shift-click on the first page to restore the flow of the main text
    • Copy and paste the contents of the old frame into the primary stream restored.


    When I do, the pages to move properly, and I'm back to having a chapter with a block of primary text on each page. Unfortunately, this breaks all cross-references that refer to this newly reorganized chapter and all references to the front in this chapter.


    I tried to do all that I could imagine. Only remove the frames and not pages. Try without the busy book. Nothing works. I tried the command update cross-references in the book menu. Has nothing.


    It seems impossible to redistribute the text in a new primary master framework, without completely breaking the cross references.

    I finally found something that seems to work:

    • Create a new master page at the end of the document.
    • Go to the last page of the history of the chapter and the last history image a link to the text block type on the page that you just created.
    • In the pages palette, delete all pages in the document, with the exception of the master page that you created.

    All text will be redistributed within the frameworks of masters, and cross-references (to and from the frame) seem to be intact.
