Table of contents - power of the text box

• Update table of contents (frame) in the primary anchor text stream?

  I understand that a table of contents of InDesign should sit on its own page or in a separate text frame, so it can be easily maintained and updated.

  Help of InDesign said: "avoid threading the TOC to other blocks of text frame in the document. If you replace the existing table of contents, the whole story will be replaced by the update table of contents. »

  Fine and understand. However, I'm working on a project where I need all the content (from the illustration of the cover of the last line) to sit in the primary sequences of the spread of master - including the table of contents.

  Here's what I've tried: I open the Table of contents dialog, made all the settings and click OK. Clicking on will now create a new text frame with the table of contents, which can be changed by selecting this image by using "Update Table of contents. So far so good.

  I cut this framework and then inserted as a framework anchored in the stream text main, just as I have anchor a table, image, etc.. However, after anchor this TOC frame, I can not more updated by using "update the Table of contents. It is just another framework, not recognized as the table of contents more.

  Is there another way to have a 'live', table being updated content that will float in the primary text flow?

  Thank you.

  Ariel, I think you should give up on e-mail responses - empty again...

  PlainMartin,

  I could make this work in CS6 (and I would consider another version that allows to drag the anchored object rather than cut and paste). Now the SHIFT key and dragging the blue handle in the main story, I could anchor the table of contents, and when the text cursor was in it I could update. Make sure you anchor in a separate paragraph that uses a style that is NOT included in the table of contents, or he'll start on update.

• Extract the contents of the text box

  Hello

  I am trying to automate a process PDFing complex. A single indesign document should appear as several PDFs named, which fall into a number of folders that also have specific names. If I place the PDF names and folders in text boxes on the pasteboard of indesign pages they can be recovered by a script. Do I need to mark the text box, so the script knows where to look, and how this is done?

  Thanks much for any help.

  Hello

  Create a new layer and name it as "printpdf", create a block of text with this layer on each page and fill in the content, as shown in the picture, the first line for the name of the folder and the second row for filaname. The text block should be placed within the page, not the editing table.

  var doc = app.activeDocument;
  var pages = doc.pages;
  var _layer = doc.layers.item("printpdf");
  _layer.printable = false;

• Table goes out of alignment in the text box

  I created a very simple table in InDesign CS5 on Windows 7, like this:

  

  However, when you start typing in a cell, it goes like this:

  

  To fix, you make the text bigger or smaller box and then resize it to what it is supposed to be. Also when I do a first page datamerge moves like that too, even if the rest is correct. When you export to PDF it comes out wrong as well. If anyone wants an example file that I can post it here.

  Anyone have any ideas what's causing the alignment change when text is entered into the table?

  Well, I think I see here the rub - if you left me speechless for a while there!

  So, I see that you have the text box that contains your table to help you align your table in the center of your page. (i.e. the box containing the text is organized around the outside of the page and the table is centered lef/right using point centering and up/down by using the command "Center" in the control bar. There is nothing particularly wrong with this method, I think it may be the source of your problems with alignment change unexpectedly.

  Looking at your file, I found that the removal of "Center" and change to the opposite to "align top" took the nervous behavior of the text box. It is more shifted when I tried to type. He however move the entire table to the top of the screen. For now we'll leave it there. Align the Page: Centre from left to right, Center t to b.

  Your final result should be an element that is always perfectly centered on the page, but which can be of type in without any unpredictable jump around!

  Now, we will select the entire area that contains the table. In the paragraph Panel, click "Left aligned". This will move the table to the top left of your document. Now, frame content. Go in the Align Panel.

• Table of contents imported as the overlay of text have no active hyperlinks in PDF format

  Hello

  The model that I inherited uses a method in which the table of contents appear in the main FM as an insert text imported doc. To create the table of contents, a table of contents in autonomous is created and then imported as a text box to the specific location in the main file. When this FM file is saved as PDF hyperlinks in the page table of contents do not work.

  -Am I doing something wrong, or is - what a limitation of text import crashing like OCD?

  Thank you

  Donna

  For reasons specific to my application, I use books with a Table of contents file that imports the TOC file generated as a text overlay. And hyperlinks in the PDF file. I understand that, in general, the links in text ads that link outside of themselves are not active in the PDF file. But for some unknown reason, the links in my Table of contents work in the PDF file.

  So, I tested your case. I created a standalone table of contents for a single document (be sure to select create hyperlinks in the Set Up Table of contents dialog box) and then it imported by reference into the document. I created the PDF (print to the Adobe PDF printer) and the links work perfectly.

  Make sure that you have selected data Acrobat generated in the print dialog box, and THEN select make named Destinations in the links in the PDF Setup dialog box tab.

  I have also heard that if you apply a format of characters in a line in the table of contents, links will not work in the PDF file. It is another thing to check.

• When I print a table (multiple pages) the text box under the table seems to be moving under the table and prints with the table of this overlap. My only solution is to push the text box further down the page before printing... Any advice?

  Im having problems shaped a text box so that my table does not print right on top of it. I want it inside of my table (it's 'tems and conditions' budget)

  Any advice would be great.

  I face the same problem as well. Would like to know if there is a better way to get the text box to move with the table instead of the effect that overlap. Have to manually adjust the layout, whenever I want to get a reasonable print of a document (or export it to PDF) seems counterintuitive, especially when it causes the document seem ill-disposed on screen.

  I am running version 3.6.2 of the numbers in the case where that matters.

• CS2 erase content and the text box

  I use CS2 on Windows. I have a file of 30 pages with the linked text boxes on each page with anchored objects. I would remove the first 10 pages, but NOT the text of these areas of 10 text wrap on the remaining pages. Is there a way to delete the text boxes AND their content before deleting these pages, that I don't have to highlight all of the text on them, remove it, then delete the text boxes themselves?

  Thank you

  Lloyd

  Ah ha! You need a script! I use CS2 and I only found on the scripts - you can find them on the CD-ROM or get you it from here (scroll to CS2.) Put them in the folder scripts in your presets folder, open the palette scripts (on Windows) and here they are. There are two useful in your goal - we split the history in separate text boxes, one pops up a text box in the story. Just select your text box and double-click the script.

  (Of course, once you cut your text out of the herd area you can remove it).

• Using paint and how to change the text box.

  How can I select a text box that you want to modify in the paint - Windows 7 Home Premium?  Once I leave the text box I can't select again a second time to change the text or grab it to move... I must be missing something very simple?  Is there a manual program somewhere?  Yes, the zoom is 100% and I am the administrator.  Thanks for any help!

  The painting is a very simple program and does not support the re - select a text box to change the content.

• How to make a 'active' phone number in the text box?

  I'm testing in 10.1 and 10.2, using the following QML simulators.  What I'm trying to understand is that 'rules' the text box used to set the active text, including phone numbers.  All I'm trying to do is to put a phone number in the text box that my users the opportunity to click on it to the phone.  But I can't make it work, or more exactly, may not get the phone number to become active.  .

  As you can see that I tried a variety of number formats, some specific UK because I was afraid that he may use country specific recognition, but nothing I try works.

  On the other hand the address which I also put in the TextArea is 'hot' and started the map.

  FYI, the client is running in Canada on Q10s using 10.1.  The numbers are also completely fictitious, if they work, then that is a stroke of luck.

                  TextArea {
                      inputMode: TextAreaInputMode.Text
                      editable: false
                      content.flags: TextContentFlag.ActiveText

• Why my links do not work in the text box next to the e-mail in Outlook?

  I created an email template in Eloqua, which is a two-column layout. The text box on the left has links that work very well. The text box on the right has links that do not work. This only occurs in Outlook. If I find the email in an another e-mail client, all right. What could be wrong causing the links is not working?

  If another person has ever run into this and found a solution, please let me know. I'm pulling my hair out!

  I called support this morning and all I had to do was move the text box on the right side to the top of a few pixels and now everything works fine. I guess when the two tables are the same height, Outlook rides them and cannot process the links properly. I like it when it's an easy solution!

• How can I make the text in all the boxes down following objects when the text box is changed from 1 to 2 lines?

  Hi people Muse.

  I'm faced with a problem of text box:

  At the bottom of my page, I have the title "ACTING ERMUTIGEN ZUM". Without any manual adjustment, I was happy to see that the text box pushes down the following objects as soon as the title Exchange of 1 to 2 lines. Point out clearly: I didn t add any point to stop or change any additional settings to achieve this, it just happened automatically and that's exactly what I want to happen.

  To my confusion, I can´t find a way to apply this behavior for the second title 'COURAGE OBSERVES UND LOSEN. It s on the same page. When I drag the breakpoint controller in the design-time view from the left to the breakpoint 900 pxor do it in the browser after export of the site, the title changes from 1 to 2 lines, as assumed, , but then the next Don t objects react and stay in the same place they stay when the title takes only 1 line.

  You will find the site on businesscatalyst:

  WILLKOMMEN

  I´d appreciates your support very well. I m sure it s not a big problem, but after an hour of re - try and control and do not receive a millimeter in advance, I thought, he could be one of these 'Don t worry - here comes the solution'- Muse hero there, read this. What you...? ;-)

  Thank you in advance.

  –––

  1st Title: everything works fine...

  

  

  –––

  2nd title: the 1200 px BP do everything ready...

  

  .. .but as I drag the marker of BP to the left just as I did with the title 1, the 2nd title doesn´t lower content:

  

  If you set the text block "ZUM ACTING... "sensitive width via the resizing control, rather than"Stretch to the width of the browser", which will provide the behavior you're looking for.

  We will study the design compared to the difference of the browser view. It seems that how items are grouped in resizing behavior is different in the case of elements with parameters width Resize mixed, in the mode of creation of the Muse and the browser.

• Update records with the text box

  APEX: 4.0.2

  THEME: SAND

  SERVER: Oracle-Application-Server-10g/10.1.3.1.0 Oracle-HTTP-Server

  I'm just letting my user paste values in a text box, click a button and then update some fields for this record.

  I created an example with more comments on the page:

  Keep in mind: the apex, theme, and Server version are different where I created the example. The above version, theme and the server are the stats of my workplace.

  Or if the modification of the code below would be easier I can go that route.

  Update oef_itv_ndn

  Set cancelled_cd =: MMR_CANCELLED_CD.

  closed_date =: MMR_CLOSED_DATE.

  admin_remarks =: MMR_ADMIN_REMARKS

  where abc = '12345';

  I created a dynamic Action with the above code works correctly.

  but instead of "abc = '12345' 'I need it to be" where abc in: SEARCH_INPUT "

  : SEARCH_INPUT is the text box that users can paste values in this format:

  12345

  67890

  98765

  so, when it comes to the clause "where" I need to maintain all records that are in the text box.

  Post edited by: StevenD609

  The "WHERE" clause is in the wrong position.

  It should be part of the "USING" clause)

  (the nickname table 'data' is defined in the scope of this subquery)

  In addition, it seems to me good.

  If you're still having problems, you can go to the forum 'SQL and PL/SQL '.

• Cannot mount the frame to the text box

  Hello!

  I'm in InDesign CS6, on a 2011 iMac, and I often see this problem when I try to make a block of text to its content.

  Initially, it looks like this:

  

  Then I click on "mount the frame to the content" in the menu object, or by double-clicking on the handle at the bottom right of the text box.

  And then I get this thing:

  

  The police is Montserrat (free fonts, you can install it and see how it feels on your side).

  Editing is perfect on the left and right and on the bottom, but there's a margin of 10 pixels between the top of the text and the text box.

  It's really annoying when I try to align the text boxes with objects horizontally, because I then create outlines for text boxes.

  Given that this does not happen always, only with certain fonts, I am led to think that the height of the letters is not correctly calculated within the font file? I'll ask the proponent to the police for help as well, unless there is something like a value of high indentation of the hidden default page that I'm not aware of, or a solution of workaround that someone will report.

  Thank you

  In ID, select the block of text, right-click, and choose Options of text block, then the Baseline Options tab. You can set the first base line on the menu drop-down.

• I can expand the text boxes CBC and link in the properties box floating?

  Just moved to CS5 to CC and to see that the text boxes are always short fixed width despite URLs always larger than the size of the content.

  At hope that they corrected it because it is really difficult to type manually or correct a URL in these boxes of short.

  Is there is way to be extended to a larger width of character?

  TIA

  NO.
