How can I write a script for set left indent?

In three cases as below:
for example:
left indent:8mm; first indent:0mm
left indent:0mm; first indent:8mm
left indent:8mm; first indent:-8mm
How can I write a script to tell Indesign, wherever the text indent is, each time when I run the script once, the text can put just a step rightward, and “one step = 8mm”.
Please!

Hi, Trevor
I use change by list as below:
grep {leftIndent:48mm} {leftIndent:56mm}
grep {leftIndent:40mm} {leftIndent:48mm}
grep {leftIndent:32mm} {leftIndent:40mm}
grep {leftIndent:24mm} {leftIndent:32mm}
grep {leftIndent:16mm} {leftIndent:24mm}
grep {leftIndent:8mm} {leftIndent:16mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:48mm} {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:56mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:32mm} {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:48mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:24mm} {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:32mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:16mm} {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:24mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:8mm} {firstLineIndent:8mm, leftIndent:16mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:48mm} {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:56mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:32mm} {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:48mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:24mm} {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:32mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:16mm} {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:24mm}
grep {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:8mm} {firstLineIndent:-8mm, leftIndent:16mm}
but not that perfect,
I want to useing jave "if{}" or "for{}" to write this script, but I don't kown the syntext.

    Manish

    Hi Manish,
    We also had same requirement where we need to show indian local language(Hindi ,Bengali and many more ).
    We had implemented following approach and perhaps it will helpful for you.
    1-First we changed the encoding value in jdeveloper.
       go to jdeveloper --> tools --->preference-->encoding , select to UTF8
    2-We used to get the properties and it's translated value from business and then we were manually put these pair into related resource bundle.
    And using this we were able to implemented multilanguage support.
    Thanks

  • How can I write a script to regularly transfer a file between two iMacs on a network?

    I keep all our family photo files (iPhoto Library) on my wife's iMac.  Because we can't share the library simultaneously, I want to automate the copying of the library from her iMac to mine say, once a week in the wee hours (it's a big file). Both of our iMacs are on our common (wired) home network.  Is there a way to write a script that will accomplish that?  If it matters, we both maintain independent external backup drives and use 'Time Machine' judiciously.  Thanks in advance for any guidance!!!

  • How can I write a script or create a macro for gaming.

    Now I know this may be a petty and or silly question for most apple users but I am going to throw it out there anyway. I play an online game called Battle Pirates. When you make an attack you have up to 5 ships to control. I am looking for a way to control multiple ships with a "macro" or "script" and using only 1 key. For example: Select ship 2, 3, and 4 while leaving ship 1 and 5 alone. Yea I know it is childish but indulge me. Hahaha.
    I know you can write Macros with Windows and you can even use something called "Auto Hotkey". I just wanted to see if anyone knew of a way to do this with what Apple already has in place. What I have commonly found out with Apple products is that since I have come from being a Windows user to Apple, I usually overthink the process. LOL. Mac's are soooooo much easier....if you know where to start.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! By the way, I have read the tutorial on "Script Editor" but I am having trouble understanding it mostly because you kinda would have to have SOME programming knowledge. Obviously I lack in that area. Thanks for bearing with me.

    Can you expand on that? How do you use automator in your game? Can you give me a rough idea of how and what you do with it? I have watched a tutorial on Automator and it seems more useful for documents.

  • How do I write a script to set maximum pixel dimensions?

    I need to batch process JPGs and limit the maximum dimension to 500 px. This has to apply to the largest side of the image, either height or width. The other side should auto size proportionately. I'm currently having to make these size changes manually. I haven't found any script language or function that will let me set the largest pixel size to 500 px, regardless of which dimension is the largest.
    Example:
    1. If the image is 1000 px w x 750 px h, I want the script to resize the image proportionately for the largest side, changing the width to 500 px
    2. If the image is 750 px w x 1000 px h, I want the script to change the height to 500 px and the proportions conform accordingly for the width
    Any ideas are grately welcomed.
    Thanks,

  • How can i get java script for apple

    java script turned off cant get it back on.

    The interpreter to handle JavaScript is built in.
    To turn the JavaScript interpreter on and off for all pages:
    Firefox > Preferences > Content tab
    If you already have JavaScript enabled on this tab but some sites tell you that JavaScript is ''not'' enabled, this might be the result of an add-on, a script filter, or many other possibilities.
    You didn't provide a lot of information in your post. Can you indicate where you have this problem, when it started, and whether you recall making any changes in Firefox or on your system before this happened?

  • How can I write an installer for filter plugin ?

    Hi,
    My filter works with several files.
    I should take some files in different folders (Actions, Filters, Styles, Textures...)
    Which installer can I use? Which installer knows the Photoshop directory?
    Thnx for any help
    Felix

    You can also use this to find the photoshop executable:
    RegQueryStringValue(HKLM, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Photoshp.exe', 'Path', sPath);
    ("HKEY_LOCA_MACHINE\SOftware\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Photoshop.exe")
    The problem with the plugin path is that its named differently depending on your os language, e.g. "Zusatzmodule" in german. Now, since you do not know wich version is installed, you can't query the reg-key I stated first and without it you can never be sure how the plugin folder is named on the target platform.
    Now either you try a reg-key for each version 1.0 to 10.0 until you get a valid entry or you can use the reg-key from above and put your plugin directly into photoshops root folder - it will be found there too. Of course that's a bit messy, but you don't have to worry about plugin-folder name and/or ps version that way.

  • How can I write unit tests for BizTalk Maps with multipe inputs?

    I want to bring all my maps under unit test coverage, but can't seem to find a way to test maps with multiple inputs. Maps with multiple inputs are first merged into a single schema by biztalk and then the map actually uses that inline schema as source.
    What I tried is- produced a generated instance of source schema by clicking "Test Map", and then modified the skeletal instance by stitching together the multiple input files into it. There are two problems I am facing going forward that way- 1#
    It takes a lot of time to craft a mock input of inline schema and 2# the mock input fails input validation although the input works just fine in the orchestration.
    So is there a better or standard way to test such Maps?

    For testing maps with multiple inputs, follow the below steps-
    Lets assume you have a map with two input schemas A and B and output as C.
    1) To create the required schema just reverse the inputs i.e. make a map with C as input and A & B as output. Later do a test map. This will generate an XML File with schemas A & B. 
    2) Now you just to need to replace OutputMessagePart_0 to InputMessagePart_0
    and OutputMessagePart_1 to InputMessagePart_1
    Later you can use this xml for testing your original map.
    Refer the below article
    Developing and Testing Maps which have Multiple Source and Destination Schemas
    Thanks,
    Prashant
