The text blocks and discussions all changed white

Help - my long InDesign CS3 document changed all my blocks of text and the sons of white.  I can't see the box on the page for formatting.  I added a background colored on the master to see them on a temporary basis - but do not want this background.  I can't find anything in the area of preferences to change this.

These elements assume the color of the layer, they are on. Check the color of the layer in the layers panel.

  • Apply effects to the text block and not the text

    I am trying to apply a shadow to a text block, but he keeps applied the effect of text rather than the text block.  I click on the text block, and then effects and shadow and object is selected in the 'Settings For' drop-down box.  However, he maintained the application of the shadow to the text, rather than to the text block.   I am doing this wrong, or is there something else I need to do?

    If you select a textframe, you already have a textframe. So, if you choose app.selection [0] .textFrames [0], this means an anchored within a textframe textframe.

    And: You try to create your textframe on page 1. But you must add the new textframe on the page following the page of your choice.

    So, try this one:

    var curDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var frame1 = app.selection[0];
    var parPage = frame1.parentPage.documentOffset;
    var frame2 = curDoc.pages[parPage+1].textFrames.add({geometricBounds: [50, 50, 100,100]});
    frame2.previousTextFrame = frame1;
    
  • Type of entry in the text block

    Hello

    Is it possible to define a text frame on a master page and be able to enter text in the image in the document itself, without separate the text block and his master?

    This is for CS4.

    Thank you.

    It depends on the nature of your question. You must override the image on the document page (Shift click command) to add content, but anything that does not change on the page of the document is still linked to the main frame (such as size, position, fill, stroke, etc.). Is that what you mean?

  • Text wrapping will not be in the text block

    I am changing the content on a block of text in Illustrator using a JavaScript file.

    My method is as follows:

    changeLayer = doc.layers.getByName(textKeys[t]);

    changeLayer.textFrames.getByName(textKeys[t]).wrapInside = true;

    changeLayer.textFrames.getByName(textKeys[t]).contents = textArray [textKeys [t]];

    Basically, I set wrapInside to true and then I replace the content of the block of text with a string.

    However, rather than the text as you wish, Illustrator print everything on one line expands the size of the text block (and sleep) to adapt the text on a single line. Even when I put explicitly the width and height of the image in the script, it shrinks the text to fit on a single line in the rather enveloping framework. If I explicitly set the size of the police he then extends the framework once again, but only on a single line. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Good evening

    Don't forget that you have different types of linked text frames. In vba, you can find the property THAT allow you to show that read only 3 types of text frames aiAtraText, aiPathText and aiPointText

  • Script to remove all the images, text blocks, and the page numbers on a layer

    I have a 364 pages with 322 illustrations, photographs mainly, for offset printing.

    The photographs will be be overprinted with the varnish on a plate in the fifth, and I set it up as follows:

    On a new layer, (double layer 1) all photos are removed, but not their mounts.

    The frames are then filled with 100% black.

    All text blocks and page numbers must also be deleted.

    I realize I could have done this job easier if I put all the images on their own layer first, but unfortunately I do not have.

  • 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.

  • Number of words and then pasting text into the text block

    I'm trying to create a javascript script that counts the words in a block of selected text, adds "WORDS." at the end and then paste at the beginning of this block of text with a "BOLD" character style applied. So he would look like:

    25 WORDS. Text text text text text. etc.

    I managed to find a way to create the character style, to count the words in the selected text block and give me an alert. But I'm not sure how to apply the character style and paste it at the beginning. Any help would be really appreciated. Here's what I have so far.

    Thank you

    -----------------------

    var curDoc = app.activeDocument;

    mySel var = app.selection [0];

    Create the style of wordcount

    If (! curDoc.characterStyles.item("wordcount").isValid) {}

    cStyle var = curDoc.characterStyles.add ({name: "wordcount"});

    }

    else {}

    cStyle var = curDoc.characterStyles.item ("wordcount");

    }

    cStyle.fontStyle = "Bold";

    //

    var mySelWords = mySel.texts.everyItem (). words.length;

    var mySelStoryWords = mySel.parentStory.words.length;

    Alert (mySelWords + "WORDS.");

    Hello

    further, through the selection, change the same way:

         mySel = app.selection,
         len = mySel.length,
         cStyle = curDoc.characterStyles.item("wordcount"),
         mySelWords, mString, curSel;
    
    if (!cStyle.isValid)
        cStyle = curDoc.characterStyles.add({name: "wordcount", fontStyle: "Bold"});
    
         while (len-->0) {
              curSel = mySel[len];
              if (curSel.hasOwnProperty ("insertionPoints") ) {
                   mySelWords = curSel.texts.everyItem().words.length,
                   mString = mySelWords + " Words. ";
                   curSel.insertionPoints[0].appliedCharacterStyle = cStyle;
                   curSel.insertionPoints[0].contents = mString;
                   }
              }
    

    Note that textFrame.words County is those visible only, so the other part of the text is excluded.

    If some of the answers have been useful - mark (their), pls ==> it's a good indicator for other researchers and a few points for me.., mlask.

  • out the anchor text block and copy its contents

    Hi all

    I have a script that will be able to anchor to InDesign text block and it works well. Now my problem is that I released that anchored text frames and then copy its contents the same position where the text block was at anchor.

    Here's what I do:

    1. find and block of text of a document (using the find object, anchored by its applied object style).

    2. release the anchored object found.

    3 copy its contents the same position where it was anchored.

    For 1 and 2 rep, I maybe able to do but point 3 I have no idea.

    Hope someone can lend me the time to solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    -elmer

    then, instead of myFrame.releaseAnchoredObject (); use myFrame.remove ();

  • Slow down gradually by typing in the text block

    I read all the other threads regarding typing slow in InDesign, but I had not anything the problem that I am facing. My problem is that typing becomes gradually slow when you type in certain blocks of text, that is, it is fast when I start typing in the empty block, but as the text block is filled with the text, it becomes slow.

    I use two types of blocks of text on each page of my document: one with no style whatsoever and the other with a style of object including a border, two rounded corners and margins. This gradually typing slow occurs only in the second type of text block.

    I hit a relatively small (7 MB, less than 300 pages), file text without columns, cross-references, paste them from other applications, connecting blocks of text, or any of the other usual culprits for slow typing I've read about. Nothing else in InDesign is slow, including typing in the other type of text block (without borders, etc.).

    Any ideas?

    Its most likely the rounded corners that is causing the slow down.  Not sure how RADIUS helps you, but having to calculate how to keep the text with rounded corners is much more expensive than when the text block is a simple box.  A suggestion to help alleviate the problem is to break the document by chapter upward, so that you do not have the end of a chapter that connects the beginning of the next.  When you have a large number of pages of text all flow from one page to another, editing text in a page means that all of the following must be recalculated.  Break this cascade of changes from one page to the other will help with performance.  A disadvantage is that you need to be careful and watch the overset text or blank pages that passes at the end of each chapter.

  • How the auto repeat 'position title (continued)' in the text block

    Hi guys,.

    I've looked everywhere and couldn't find it.

    Here's what I'm trying to achieve:

    I have a few blocks long text which flows into a framework of text block and I would like to have the title for each of the items be repeated first of all in the first line of the block of text on each page as follows (suite).

    I know that I can use master pages and can have a separated with my title text box. But then, if the number of page change, I can end up with a title (continued) where shouldn't.

    The next and previous page number line break does not work for me, because I need it to be the title of the article and it must be in the same frame of definition as title x.

    It's somewhat similar occurs when your table across more than one page. The header is repeated on each image.

    I really tried to find it but no luck. Whenever I have tryied the anwes only I got was to line breaks, next and previous page number.

    Much appreciated if anyone can save me.

    Thank you

    I think that we know exactly what you're trying to do, and we told you how to do it in code.

    Word has a few features that allow you to have different headers and footers for section home pages and use them automatically when you set up a new section. This is equivalent to using two masters in ID and one without the variable grant your section start pages. The difference is that you have to do that yourself.
