That part of my character style will apply when it is used in a number format.

I created a NOTE: format. I used a numbering format to create it in the balls and the section number of the paragraph styles dialog box as follows:

Type from the list: Numbers of

Format: None

Number:   NOTE: ^ t

Character style: My Style of special character

And here's my character style:
Stress: WE
Weight: 15 pt
Offset:-4
Color: Black
Tint: 20%
And here's the problem:
Underscore does not show upward when the character style is used since then in the bullets and numbering section of the paragraph style. I can apply the character to plain old text and t style will work fine. But the part of the character style does not appear upward when it is referenced on the bullets and numbers of the screen. Curiously, bar has the same problem. The rest of my work of style attributes (font, color, etc.) of fine character. But underscore does not apply.
Any ideas as to why?

In my view, it is a bug known; Notes does not work in this situation, although other attributes of text, such as "BOLD", color, italic, do.

This forum and Google search terms as to highlight auto-numbering indesign paragraph style to see some beyond the discussions on this topic.

  • Character style strange applied when you create a new table

    Hi all

    I have a table style. This is controlled using the cell styles. Cell styles is controlled using paragraph styles. Nothing complicated here.

    When I create a new table by using the style, it seems. Accept that all of the text in the cells have an applied character style. So when I start to insert text in a cell, the text is formatted different style of paragraph, that I defined in the table style.

    If I remove any character hairstyle for all the text in the table, it seems just as expected.

    Any ideas on how to move forward with this? It's pretty annoying to have to select the table and remove all style characters before you can start using the table.

    Thank you!

    Martin

    Check that a character style is not selected by default before you create your table.

  • Add a line as part of a character style in InDesign CS4

    Hi all

    I am new to InDesign and am in the process to design a 4-page newsletter inside IT Department of my company.

    Each page (A4) has 2 columns and contains one or more articles.

    I would like to create a character style to format the title of each article so that it stand out and include a line under the text.

    I took a look at in the underline options and almost found what need me except that I would like until the line is the same length as the column width and not the length of the text that she says. If I managed to get what I wanted by drawing a line; but is it possible to include this line in my style "section header" so I shouldn't draw every time?

    Or maybe there is an option to make the longer than the text underline, but I can't find it.

    Thanks in advance

    A paragraph NET is what you are looking for.

  • How to create custom underscore and make a style that will not change the style of text when it is applied?

    Hi, I just want to know how can I create custom underscore and make a style, so that when I apply it to the text it right to point out that the article selected

    As long as no other character style is applied, you can create and apply a character style that is completely empty except for underscores. That will add an underline without affecting the text in any other way. If a different character style is already you must either add an underscore to this style definition (which will add an underline to all text formatted with this style) or make a copy of the style and add the underline, and then apply the new style.

  • [JS] [CS3] Apply the character Style to the first word

    I'm a noob that Javascript is concerned, and I expected a little guidance.

    Here is my scenario: I have a book that was composed in a single file; the main content is in a story. I want to select the first word in each block of text on each page and apply a character style. My goal is to use this character style to indicate the page breaks in the XML document - I maps to a specific tag style.

    So far, I have this poor specimen:

    myDocument var = app.activeDocument;
    myPage var = myDocument.pages.item (1);
    var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.item (0);


    If (app.activeDocument.stories [0] .paragraphs [0] .words [0]! = null)
    myTextFrame.paragraphs.item (0).words.item (0) = .appliedCharacterStyle
    myDocument.characterStyles.item ('foo');

    I know, I did not implement any kind of loop again (which will be more complicated given that there will be some blank backs, etc.). What I try to do in this is to select the first word in the first paragraph on the second page - which it does in reality. It's the first paragraph of the second begins on the first page, so I select that word on the first page, second page.

    As I said, a lot of work to do but a bit of help on getting to the right word would be most appreciated.

    Well, you were on the right track, but the "myText" test fails if there is no block of text on a page, because it fails a line earlier

    > var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.item (0);

    just before that, you must test the number of blocks of text:

    If (myPage.textFrames.length > 0)

    {

    ... your stuff...

    }

    Use it only if you are absolutely positive that there is just a block of text on each page! A slightly better way would be to always loop on each textframe:

    for (frames = 0; frames

    {

    var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.item (frames);

    .. etc.
    }

    in this case you don't have test his first length (the loop will not be executed if there is zero text blocks).

    [Grumpy] Since you have only a continuous story, an even better way would be to loop on texts related to this single story executives. You must identify the story somehow, and I usually click on the text cursor in the one that I need:

    monarticle = app.selection [0] .parentStory;

    or you can rely on the fact that the story begins as part of text on page 1:

    monarticle = app.activeDocument.pages [0] .stories [0];

    (I think this should work.) Then, each frame of the story until the end can be found in the table

    myStory.textContainers

    which are usually text blocks. Make a loop on them to help

    for (image = 0; frame)

    {

    myTextFrame = myStory.textContainers [frame];

    .. etc.

    }

  • Legends have the applied character Style

    Hello

    I am trying to add captions to a bunch of pictures and they all get a character Style applied for some reason any.

    I tried to select 'none' before creating captions without result.

  • The different paragraph of distinct character style formatting

    Hello

    In my paper, I have bunch of paragraphs and each begins with the name (two or three words). Character style is applied to each name. Now, I want to add the paragraph after each name of each mark is so in its own paragraph. Of course, I can do it manually, hitting enter after each name, but I was wondering if there is a more efficient way through search/replace or perhaps GREP.

    Thank you!

    Try this on a copy to be sure, but I think finding ^. + and set the format to find the character style, and then change to $0, you can also set the change of any character Style Format and a new paragraph Style that is applied by the character style formatting.

    This will probably leave you with a space at the end of the paragraph, or the beginning of the next. The location will depend on if the style is applied to the space. If this is the end of the paragraph, you can use find find ^(.+) (\s) and change to $1

    If it's at the beginning of the next paragraph, in my opinion, you need a second query, Find ^ /s (leave find it empty format or the value initially attributed the paragraph style) and do not fill the field exchange.

  • How to use paragraph and character styles properly?

    I have a document in which the text has two colors (which has no style)

    Black (normal) and Red (to highlight the keywords).

    I needed to put these 2 in a style

    (black) paragraph style

    (red) character style

    Here's my question.

    How can I make sure that when I use the paragraph style, she also uses the style of character but only on the Red words?

    While I need not find/replace every word manually

    I want to do at once.

    If you want to add styles to a document already created:

    (1) create your character style that contains only the color of the characters

    (2) search and replace a text with red color search and replace with the new character style formatting. (Do not type anything in the text portion of the find and Replace dialog box)

    (3) create and apply your paragraph style to all. The text with the applied character Style will stay red.

  • Character style to ignore the outline

    Hi all!

    When you create a style of character (InD CS3) on the characters of color of the dialog box section outline and fill shows like question marks. I guess that means that the character style will not change the outline.

    However, I can't find a way to RETURN to that State "do not change" after doing something else. I solved the problem by synchronizing this InD file with another that has the unmodified style so that the plan does not change when the style is applied.

    I'm missing on this dialog box which allows you to set the style of back on NOT changing the contour?

    Thanks a bunch!

  • best judgment for paragraph styles, object styles and character styles

    I want to learn the criteria difference and use of paragraph styles, object styles and character styles. I know how to use them, but know about the best judgment and context, when you use would be better. Can anyone recommend links? I've been using adobe. Please don't suggest books.

    Paragraph styles are whole paragraphs.

    Character styles are letters or isolated words. Do not use the long of an entire paragraph. Do not set all the attributes, only those who are different for the properties of the paragraph Style. Unlike Quark Xpress, in InDesign are character Styles used only for the difference of isolated words.

    Paragraph styles can include the character automatically Style: Styles, GREP, nested Styles, initial letters, chips automatic & numbers and line styles.

    Object styles , set the frame of the object. They include separate definitions of all of the object, the stroke and fill.

    Object styles can also be applied to images in a frame and groups.

    Object styles may also include in the following paragraph Style and a style of paragraphs in automatic way.

    Object styles have several categories, you can choose which category is relevant to apply. For example, it is possible to apply the first style object to give the stroke and fill and apply a different object style to format the corners only and then apply the next. (With this method last only the applied object Style is linked).

    Styles of the opportunity to make global changes in a document. If you build in a smart way, they are a huge time saver. They can be stored in the CC libraries or libraries with objects that are applied to them. If you have created once these styles, you can use them again, and with one or two clicks, you can make their own to new document.

    My recommendation: the habit of Styles, name them always with the same names that it helps you to be accustomed to them and to work faster, much faster.

    There are more models: Table Styles, Styles of cell, the Master Pages and color chart.

  • How to apply a character Style that has already been made in a document model?

    First of all, I would like to thank everyone who helps. I am a complete newbie to the script and appreciate your help.

    I mainly use GREP expressions to search for patterns in a document and apply a character Style that has already been done. This character style did not help script, but just in InDesign when the production and implementation of the model.

    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    
    
    //Clear the find/change grep preferences.
    app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
    app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
    
    //Set the find options.
    app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeFootnotes = false;
    app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeHiddenLayers = false;
    app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeLockedLayersForFind = false;
    app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeLockedStoriesForFind = false;
    app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeMasterPages = false;
    
    //GREP Expression for finding all HEADERS
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ".+\n";
    
    //Applying formatting changes to put into All Caps, Bold and changing the font size to 12 pt.
    app.changeGrepPreferences.capitalization = Capitalization.allCaps;
    app.changeGrepPreferences.fontStyle = "Bold";
    app.changeGrepPreferences.pointSize = "12";
    myDoc.changeGrep();
    
    //Clear the find/change preferences after the search.
    app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
    app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
    

    This is how I currently. I will manually define the changes made to the text. The problem is, each model uses a different set of fonts and not all use them "BOLD", for example Sabon can use THIS "BOLD".

    I would like to know how to apply a character Style and tried to look, but nothing seems to work.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

  • Apply the character style to the part of the paragraph

    Hello

    Dan - BTP says:

    ... the size in points and attack can be different on each page...

    You are able to find a rule of these differences?

    ...

    What do depends on what type of rule could be defined

    ...

    The size of reference point that is 1.5 PT lower than the point size of the paragraph, whatever.

    Close to the end of the script, you can code for example:

         //     Your target is "reference" which is a text inbetween tabulator and end of story (or other criteria).
         //     So you could define:
    app.findGrepPreferences = null;      // just for clear it
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "(?<=\\t).+\\s\\Z";     //     to catch text following tab in last para of story
         //     and after:
    mFound = app.activeDocument.findGrep();
         //     so all desired text objects are in an array "mFound".
         //     you could iterate (backward) through it:
    len = mFound.length;
    while (len-->0)      //     ">0" in case of nothing found
         mFound[len].pointSize -= 1.5;
    
         //     whatever that is - is 1.5 smaller
