Text boxes have gone white! Problem of formatting or glitch?

We use InDesign on the same computer for years, and today (while establishing a print publication), text boxes went white. The text was not deleted, just inaccessible and invisible. The only way that the text could become visible was messing with the formatting - change column number, increasing the border spacing, etc. - and even then it would not completely work. Is it a formatting problem or a bug in the program? We have already done basic troubleshooting (restarting the computer, modify files, etc.). I would like to know why this happened, so we could avoid any incident in the future.

Yes we usually postpone files from previous publications and who for years without any problem.

Could it be a corrupted file?

  • text boxes have disappeared

    My big document was very well for weeks then (at the end) I opened it and random text boxes were gone on random pages. I saved in the .idml file and reopened in InDesign and as with a different name. Everything was fine, but I want to share what happened.

    The layers palette still showed objects on my layer and acted as if selected when you click on the next square in the layer name, but they were not there so "select all" on the page or "show the contours of the block." Everything seemed to be recognized in the layers palette and selected in the layers palette, a small box appeared in the middle of the spread. If I clicked on the box, an icon as he wanted to link or place my text, but he would not. I quickly realized that I had to register under .idml and spend. Not sure if it is worth to find what has become corrupted.

    I'll be happy to answer your questions if anyone wants to understand it, but mostly shared with the name of the topic, if someone can find if they need.

    Snapshot shows the layers palette with several apparently chosen objects and the corresponding selection (what is real small) in the middle of the spread.

    So if the box was clicked on a bounding box error message came up.

    In my view, this is a bug in the CC, and you should report it to Adobe - feature request/Bug Report Form

    In addition, if you stil with the problem file, save it for presentation to the engineering team (mention that you have the file in your bug report).

  • Text box inset spacing quickie problem

    I have my game space inset to 0 in the options of text block, but I still have space in the text box, as you can see by the red line in the picture below. Is it possible to completely eliminate the text to the left in a text box so that it lines perfectly against the box itself?

    Thank you.

    Capture.JPG

    Actually, no. There are a few built-in spacer in each character, so they're not typing all cramped upward.

    Move the whole box as bit to the left? Use an optical alignment?

    Or manual mode: insert a trailing space to the left of the character; Then you can use kerning between this space and the character to move all the way to the left.

  • Why a dynamic text box have a word limit?

    Hello

    I'm having some problems atm with flash and I was wondering if I ask too many flash or if I'm being stupid. Basically, what I'm trying to achieve is a box that has 300 px 300px, in this box, I have a text I want to place inside. As I would like to be able to regularly update this box (it's a news feed), I've linked as a .txt file. The problems I encountered is that the flash seems to have a limit on the amount of text it will allow in a dynamic text field. As though I have more text in my txt document, its does not appear. That's how I came to the presumtion that flash needs to limit the amount of text.

    I not mistaken, or is there something that I am missing?

    I downloaded the file on my web space for ppl to have a peek.

    Yes, but you missed it...  Who & between angels and urchins creates a second variable, or at least put an end to that you count all this text to be.  You need to get out of there.  Since you are using a text file, I don't know what to say regarding what to use instead another that 'and '.

  • Text - box height problem tool text & confusion

    Hello

    I struggled to solve a problem of text box in my layout of phone.  I have a box of text at the bottom of the page.  The lower edge of the text box touches the top of the footer area.  If I drag the center of the bottom of the text just below box handle of the text, so that no blue dashed line appears in the text box, it looks good in Muse, but when I download and watch the page on my iPhone, there is an empty space under the text (in addition to the footer area).  If, however, I drag the bottom of the text box so that the dashed blue line is a few lines above the bottom of the text, then the text appears correctly on the iPhone.

    I'm not clear on what this broken blue horizontal line in means of text area, other than the height of the text and the box do not match.  It seems not important since the text is displayed even if the box is theoretically too short.  Perhaps someone can explain what that broke horizontal line way and if it's a problem if it appears in the text box.

    Now, for the confusion, I just today created some paragraph Styles so that I can be sure that my pages are compatible.  It seems that the text box can be sized before applying a paragraph Style, dashed blue line disappeared - no extra space below the text on the iPhone.  Once I applied the paragraph Style, that extra space will appear unless I reduce the text box.  I checked and the paragraph Style has no padding, leading etc., normal.  The footer area is not checked.

    I did a few tests, and the problem is not related to the text box on the top of the footer area.  I inserted another test text box under the "problem" box, and the problem persists - extra space unless I have shorten the height of the text box.  I think it has to do with my paragraph Style, but I don't see what is the cause.  I must emphasize that the other text boxes have the same applied paragraph Style and they don't have any extra space under the text.

    Thanks for any help.

    John

    I don't think that your "get extra space." Rather, I suspect the text block is high and narrow, and the text it contains is much shorter in the browser that it appears in Design view in Muse because of differences in the line breaks in the text. It is quite common when using "web safe" fonts and is also true when you view websites in different browsers, browser versions, devices or versions of operating system because of the differences in text layout engines used and available fonts on the device. It is especially common in text frames narrow tall.

    The most effective way to reduce the effect is to use a Web font rather than a 'web safe' police, which will reduce the variation of the layout of the text between the browsers, but ultimately you need to design, with the variations of line in mind, because they are not entirely avoidable. In your case this means that the block of text sizing for minimum height (as indicated by the dotted line) is shorter than the text as it appears in Design view, so when line breaks changes the block of text is reduced in height, rather than leave a space blank at the bottom.

  • 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.

  • Annoying problem with text boxes

    I want to create a text box with the white fill color and black text. The entire box is an opacity of 0% in normal mode and in overturning it would be 64%. Everything works correctly if the text font is Helvetica for example. But if it's Chin (what I want) it does not at all. The box is an opacity of 100% in all modes. Then I turn it on in Helvetica and it works very well... again. No other changes (!) Now, I really want to know what is happening with that.

    Corbel is a web font or a font for the Web. This is why it must be converted into an image when released.

  • Change on different resolutions size of text box

    Hello.

    First of all, I am using Captivate 4.

    I record some learning materials and I am their record with a resolution of 1280 x 800.

    After that I stopped their record, I start to change, and then I'm their publication in the form of swf files.

    The next stept is to put the SWF on a Web site.

    I see a problem: the text boxes have another dimension. They are a bit biger they are in the project.

    Another thing: after I have send the project file (* .cp) to another person who has a screen resolution of 1280 x 1024, all text boxes appear a bit larger.

    Adobe Captivate changes the size of text boxes according to the resolution of the screen?

    Hello

    CP is all about bitmap images. The resolution is very important. Normally, you start playing a CP - SWF published in the HTML file and size is preserved. But apparently you just click on the SWF file or inserted the SWF file, and it fits the screen, it's play. Maybe i ' l try a metaphor: imagine a T-shirt with a picture on it. If you try to enlarge the T-shirt, the image will be larger, as details such as text. It's not Captivate change sizes of text captions :-)

  • Get two text boxes appear...

    Hi guys.  Im trying to get to two areas of text to appear once a selection is made from a drop-down list. Two text boxes have been updated with the invisible and the formCalc is written under the change option in the drop-down list.  This does not work when I make the selection. Text boxes appear only once I make the choice to the second time and on the option I want that text areas is visible on.  -CV103 is my combo - CV107 & CV108 are my text boxes that I set to invisible.   I pasted my code below because I can't seem to get this right. Help, please!    root. P1.client.variable_option_client.cv103::change - (FormCalc, client) if (root. P1.client.variable_option_client.cv103.RawValue == 'Partner') then root. P1.client.variable_option_client. CV107. Presence = root "visible." P1.client.variable_option_client.cv108.presence = 'visible' to other root. P1.client.variable_option_client. CV107. Presence = root 'invisible '. P1.client.variable_option_client.cv108.presence = "invisible" endif thanks Joey

    The problem is that the rawValue does not hold the value that you select to exit. If you want that the user has selected on the change event you xfa.event.newText... instead of Fieldname.rawValue

  • Help to change all the text boxes in a book

    I'm new in Indesign CS4.  I want to format book for two sizes of printed book.  When I change the predefined attributes of Document it does not apply to the size of the text boxes.  How can we re - format all the dimensions of the text box at the same time?  The book is 600 pages - too many to go through and resize each page separately.  Thank you!!!

    If text blocks were originally from the master page and you have done nothing more text to throw in, you can change the frameworks of masters and the images on the pages will change also, but if you have changed the framework anyway after flowing text, everything you have changed now irreversible of the master.

    A second option is if the blocks of text are in contact with margin guides all around, go to the Layout > setting layout... and turn it on until you change the setting statement. Managers will adjust to the new margins.

  • Text box block CS3

    Hi guys

    Strange, one for you here... Whenever I insert a text box in the table here next to 'comments' it completely crashes DW CS3.
    I have rebuilt the page several times and it's the same thing... I Googled it and got nothing. It's really weird. The other form elements are all very well. Only the text box seems to make the damage:

    I don't expect an answer, really, I'm sure it's something from 1 million to happen, but you never know. It is 3 CS DW on Vista and been perfect so far.
    Thank you
