Text box formatting withdrawal negative first: first line begins on the left, the rest is on the right.

InDesign CS6 finally arrived less than two weeks before I need the preliminary version of a major publication. I used last InDesign version 3 or 4. I used Publisher lately. I'm half way through the manual ID so direct me to a page number if this is the answer in there.

I want the first line of a paragraph in my text box to start on the left, then jump to a tab where more text begins. Until then, the text would wrap tab if it is long enough. Then the process begins again with the following paragraph in the same text box. I would like this formatting be automatic, with not much fuss on my part to do at work - and run around (not on top of) pictures on the right.

It should look like this:

-----

Funding: Funding goes here. It is long.
It wraps to the point the tab to the 'a '.

Description: A description goes here. It is long.
It wraps to the point the tab to the 'a '.

-----

In Word, do you it by pulling the back 'home' to the right, where it aligns with the tab, and it is called a "hanging indent."

Is it possible (easily) in InDesign? Or do I have two areas of text with the vertices lined up, to get two different margins 'left'?

I tried to do it with a table but sometimes the table gets too long and the bottom line or two disappears, even if the blue lines are way big... and the text is not flowing around the photos to the right, so I have to keep narrow if the type is not on the top of the photo. This is not the effect I want! My last page model has seven two columns, a table of line that is not an ideal solution either because I have to manually set the gaps between paragraphs and tables - and the text isn't always in circulation around the photos.

Help!

Peter's suggestion works if you prefer justified left, titles that show you in your example. Indent to here works when you want to right justified titles that I show in my example.

  • Prevent the withdrawal of first line at the beginning of a page or column

    Hello

    I work with long documents (books). I want to automate as much as possible to add. My question is: Y at - there a way to tell InDesign do not indent the first line of a paragraph when it is on a page or a column?

    Thank you

    Martin

    The quick answer is, no there is not, unfortunately. InDesign can't do 'conditional paragraphs', but it would be a very good feature request.

    What could be done is a script: the script to find paragraphs at the top of a page or column and remove the dash.

    You can also check "automatic formatting" in-Tools Pro to see if it does what it takes:http://in-tools.com/plugins.html

    Finally, I wonder if Framemaker has such an option. It's somehow better suited to long documents that InDesign, I just realized.

    No idea what I'm doing wrong.

  • Sometimes when I hit 'tab' he lines up on the right side of my text box. Do not do it now!

    OK, so for example I have

    14:00                                             ETC.

    ↑ This is how I want it to look, but rather when I tab to go after "noon, 1 or 2" it goes to the next line instead. How can I set up the text box to make it align on both sides?

    You want two betweenthe parties is a 'withdrawal right tab', which came through Shift + Tab.

    That said, it is difficult to know what is initially a small line to move to the next line without having seen the actual text.

    When you type a message in the message text box, the text does not scroll to the 3rd entry line until the line is completed. I find myself typing blind to line 3 of my message until the line 3 is full... then it scrolls to the top and becomes visible in the message text box. Any suggestions?

    Had the same problem.  You must have changed the font size of your device to a point 10 or above fonts.  If you set it to original font size which is 8, it works perfectly again.  IHAVE that mine now set at 9 and it the text field scrolls correctly now.  It must be a bug in Blackberry software so if you read these messages please fix it as I'd rather watch 10-point font.

  • Text box formatting

    Hello. I'm fairly new to using APEX and I'm trying to understand some formatting for the text boxes.

    I currently have a text field (with the tag search) which was originally the model "Optional (Horizontal - right-aligned) ', but using this fact my text field appear in the center of the region, it is in.

    I wanted the text field appear on the left of the area by assigning "Optional (Horizontal - left-aligned).

    However, only the 'Search' label has been moved to the left and the text field was not moving, so it appears as follows:

  • Can I change my text box proportionally? I want to keep it in the square when the scaling!

    I love the sensitive provision, with the exception, why the text boxes cannot restrict or keep its proportions when I resize the browser window? I do a page portfolio, and in my home page, when I place the image, descriptive text rises. But when I resize the window it creates lots of space! For now, I did a lot of breakpoints where I manually scale the text box to be squared... Is it possible to make the balance of text box proportionally? I want to keep the square I adapt the browser window. Or is there an alternative? I like the SMART QooQee widget, but I need something for free.

    This is how it works now: www.ingridfredriksen.no

    Because the text itself is unresponsive, it is the only way, it can behave: A small, responsive text block requires to grow in length to display the full text, it contains. It is, how works internet. Otherwise the text would be "overflow" (which does not exist in the web).

    Incidentally: begins to create the wider first breakpoint and limiting to its limit text box height should prevent the empty space, because the box grows when the window is reduced and shrinks again, when it is maximized.

    If I look at your site on an iPad I n ' notice of any space unnecessary.

  • Copy empty text boxes so that when you fill in one of the other

    I use Acrobat Professional 8.  I size a text box empty, it is automatically labeled "Text1".  I can copy the empty box by holding the CTRL key and moving the box.  Now I have 2 boxes.  If I want to do 3 boxes, I repeat this action.  The only problem is the following: all say 'Text1' and if you fill out the first box, all the other boxes are populated with the same information.  Here's my question: How can I copy empty text boxes so that this doesn't happen. in other words, how can I copy the boxes as if I fill in the first box, all the other boxes remain empty until I go and fill them?  Please, I beg you.  Thank you.

    Somethings to try:

    Each of the replicated text boxes give a unique name (Text1, Text2, Text3, etc..)

    Or placer place Text1, and then in the context menu, select "Place multiple fields".

    This replica of the first, and provides a unique name for each.

    Place each field as you wish.

  • Extensible data export line moves to the right in the worksheet

    My form has a-line dynamically expandable by the user who clicks on a button. I put a maximum of 8 lines. Some users of form just a line while others need more than one. When I export using X Arcobat forms, any form that has several lines exporting other data of the line in the column on the right very far in Excel. This makes it look at hard data with a single line in a column in the middle of the worksheet and the rest a width full page to the right. Is - it there anyway I can keep these together regardless of the number of lines is created dynamically (up to the maximum number allowed)?

    Should I hide table rows instead of creatine them dynamically? If so, how can I make a visible both with a button?

    Thank you

    The field "rowObj [*]" was just an example. You need to substitute the name of your lines. So based on your example form, the code would be:

    rowNodes = xfa.resolveNodes ("form1. #subform [0]. Action.Table1.MoreActions [*] ");"

    for (rowCount var = 0; rowCount)< rownodes.length;="" rowcount++)="">

    If this line is hidden, then show it and leave the loop

    If (rowNodes.item (number of lines) .its presence = 'hidden') {}

    rowNodes.item (number of lines) .its presence = "visible";

    break;

    }
    }

    Make sure you get this last bracket closing too, I missed it in the first block of code I posted.

    Another problem in the form, it's that you have "Repeat row for each data item" checked in the binding tab delete this for all lines. Lines are there all the time (even if they can be hidden), their presence is not driven by data, so it is not necessary.

    In addition, your script to remove line buttons required a change of:

    _MoreActions.removeInstance (this.parent.index);

    TO:

    This.parent.Presence = 'hidden ';
