AGMac-Change "Chapter" and "Section" concepts...

Hello,
I started a new book in iBooks Author 2.0 and I renamed the chapter header in my language (Greek)...
In any iBooks document there are also the concepts of "Chapter" and "Section"...
For example in the "Table of contents" exists at the top "Chapter 1"...
How can I change the concept "Chapter" in the iBooks document in order to use it translated in my language in all the appearances in the book? I need the same for the "Section" also...
Thank you for your time and help...

  • Not able to edit the words "chapter" and "section" in the document workflow

    Hi all,
    I would like to point out something that could be a bug. The 2 words "chapter" and "section" are not editable in the document workflow: I can just change the title for each chapter and the title for each section, but I am not able to change the words "chapter" and "section".
    The problem is, iBooks Author is using the words "chapter" and "section" (heading 1) to build the TOC: if I am using iBooks Author in English, but I am writing a text in French, I am not able to change "Chapter" into "Chapitre". The only way to go, what I found out, is to close the app, change the OSX Lion system language, log out, re-open iBooks Author and start a new book: opening an English book  in the French version of iBooks Author will not change automatically the language in the workflow.
    Does anybody has a trick to edit the words "chapter" and "section"?
    Best regards,
    Mauro

    Hi KT,
    Thank you, but it's still in english.
    I changed to "only number", then wrote the word "chapter" in french or italian or german before the number, then deleted the preview on the iPad and made a new preview, I still have the same result: the word "chapter" is still in the language of the app. 
    To be clear: I am writing a text using iBooks Author in italian. I have to translate the same text in french, the fastest way would be to rework the italian version (I already have all the multimedia stuff inside). I changed the italian word "Capitolo" (chapter) to the french one "Chapitre" (using the advices of AodhFFXI and K T). And for the first slide of the chapter that's fine.
    But if I "close down" the first chapter slide or if I click on the top left botton to go to the chapter TOC, there I still have the word in italian, even if the word has been deleted in the layout:

  • Setting chapter and sections after importing text document?

    I imported a 120-page Word document in Author. The original was 10 chapters and related sections. It came in as a single long chapter. Now I want to manually select a page and set it to be chapter 2, chapter 3, etc., and likewise for selecting a page and setting it to section 2-1, section 2-2, etc.
    I can't see how to do this. Adding a chapter always puts it at the end of my 120 pages. If I insert a blank page, I can't set it to be a chapter or section.
    Am I missing something, or am I using an incorrect workflow?
    Any advice gratefully received.

  • Book Chapter and Section Numbering

    Hi,
    I've been through the tutorials and cannot seem to find a solution to my problem. Maybe I'm missing something simple here. Basically, I'm writing a book and want each chapter in a separate document with contiguous section numbering. e.g.
    Document 1.
    Chapter 1
       Section 1.1
           Section 1.1.1
           Section 1.1.2
                Section 1.1.2.1
       Section 1.2
           Section 1.2.1
           Section 1.2.2
    Document 2.
    Chapter 2
       Section 2.1
           Section 2.1.1
           Section 2.1.2
                Section 2.1.2.1
       Section 2.2
           Section 2.2.1
           Section 2.2.2
    If I define the Chapter as a Section heading with a level 1 hierarchy and each sub-section with level 2, 3, 4, etc hierarchy, the above works fine within each document, but section numbering always stays at 1 in each document and doesn't increment when I make the book i.e all chapters remain at Chapter 1 within each document.
    If I use the Chapter text variable, chapter numbering updates, but the section numbering isn't linked to the chapter number e.g. Section 2.1 in document 2 now becomes Section 0.1, since there is now no level 1 Section heading defined.
    Please help,
    Thanks.

    Hello Eugene,
    Thank you for the response. I actually ended up defining the Chapter as a level 1 section in Bullets and Numbering, but made it a new list called Section which is continuous across documents in the book.
    This works great. Everytime a new chapter is added, numbering needs to be updated in the book panel.

  • Why can I only change chapter and Audio, but not subtitles?

    I have a little problem, and I don't understand WHY it should be a problem.
    I have started ripped all my movies into a local computer for home sharring. We have some Apple TVs in the house and everything works well for ripping and watching movies.
    All our movies has been ripped in HandBrake and thereafter metatagged in MetaX. In Handbrake I choose the standard A TV 2, which languages I want and which subtitles I want.. The funny part is, that When I try to watch the movie in either iTunes or Apple TV, it is only possible for me to select chapter and Audio. I am sure I am not the first one to experience this, so if somebody could tell me if I do anything wrong? Or is it just iTunes and Apple TV that won't let you change more that 2 different data?
    i have tried to rip a movie without any chapters (a very short movie) and then it was possible for me to change the subtitles, but nothing else.. I donøt understand it and it is very confusing.. :/ Please help somebody.. Just tell me if it is my fault or it is Apple's fault..

  • "Speed bump" problem: when previewing on the iPad, the first page of each new chapter or section sticks and loads slowly.  How can I fix it?

    I am building a book with text and photographs in iBooks Author, basing the design on my publisher's layout for the hard copy version.  Whenever I introduce a new section or chapter, I hit a "speed bump" when previewing on the iPad.  As you read, the first page of the new chapter or section is very hard to turn and sticks as it loads.  Within each section the pages flow very easily, but when you reach the next section you hit another speed bump. I have experimented with many possible solutions to no avail.  It does not seem to matter whether the new section has images or just text; the speed bump occurs regardless.

    Joel Pickford wrote:
    However, I am finding that using fewer sections with more content in them minimizes the problem (i.e. fewer section-transions means fewer speed bumps).  This is contarary to the support page's suggestion of keeping chapters and sections smaller.  I am not having any problem within each section, even with lots of full page photos.
    That recommendation was made, presumably, to reduce the length of the delay for each chapter. More content in the chapter means more delay when changing chapters. Of course, if you have lots of little chapters, the delay can still be annoying because, even if only four or five pages in a chapter, the delay is still noticable. Just pick something that works for your book and don't worry too much about the delay. Your readers will be familiar with it if they've seen more than one IBA book.
    Will the choice of color space, s-rgb or Adobe rgb 1998, affect file size?
    Should I try to compress them more- say, level 5 or level 4 in Save For Web?
    Should I size the images for the iPad 2 instead of the iPad 3 retina display, since there are more 2s out there?
    Which color space you use does not affect file size. Apple recommend to use sRGB, so I would stick with that. As to compression and sizing, only you can decide. Try and borrow an iPad 2 to make a judgement at what level of compression and resolution you think the images start too look bad. Your high-rez images for the new iPad will be down-sampled for display on the older models, which will introduce additional artifacts.
    For my book, I simply used images at 1024 x 768 resolution. When viewed on a new iPad, they look just fine. The lower resolution is basically unnoticeable (at least for my purposes). You can view a sample of my book here: "Djembe Construction: A Comprehensive Guide". If you think the images there are good enough for your purposes, you could down-size your images to half their resolution, which will reduce file size about around a factor of three.

  • HT5213 How do i change the chapter or section label

    Hi,
    I am planning to publish a series of books in diffreent languages (german, french, english and portugese). In different templates, the chapters and sections are labelled like "Chapter 1" or "Section 3". These labels appear in english irrespective of the language used in the text (like german). In that case the labels sould be "Kapitel 1" or "Sektion 3"!
    I have not found a way to change this also i can chose to show eiter the label, the number or both. Where can i change the label text? Chapter -> Kapitel.
    Thank's for your help.

  • Changing footnotes and pagination location in section breaks

    I need to be able to change the location of my page numbers on the first and second pages of a new chapter. In addition, to be able to restart footnote numbering at "1" at the beginning of each new chapter. Each new chapter requires pagination at the bottom center of page, and the second page of the new chapter at the top right hand section of page. So, a section break is required for the first page of the new chapter, and a section break is required for the second page of the new chapter. The problem is, how do you co-ordinate this with footnote numbering? Each new section break restarts the footnotes at "1" rather than continuing from preceding page of the new chapter.

    Check "More Like This" to the right , maybe some help there>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  • Creating that blur using my brush my entire image changes too and becomes blurry. Not only that but the area I painted also becomes over exposed. What can I do am I missing something here all I want is to blur a section and not change the rest of the area

    Creating that blur using my brush. When I paint the area, which highlights in red, I bring the clarity down to create more of that blur but what ends up happening is that my entire image changes too and becomes blurry. Not only that but the area I painted also becomes over exposed. What can I do am I missing something here all I want is to blur a section and not change the rest of the area I am painted by automatically becoming over exposed. Does anyone else have this problem that can help me?

    Do you think I should try to find a cheap mobo to OC my current CPU?  How about trying to find one (mobo) used?  I fear that my only realistic choice will be to scrap the CPU and eventually buy a new mobo and CPU, but as the CPU was only released just under two years ago I would value being over to overclock it with a cheap enough mobo to last me another year or so.
    Who knows what additional problems may be run into by switching mainboards & such. The OS would have to be reinstalled fresh, etc. Money wise, it wouldn't make a lot of sense to invest more into a system that is rather outdated. The small performance gain making the switch to another board using the CPU you have, just doesn't really make much sense, especially if what you have now is completing the tasks asked of it. Save up some money, set it aside for a future build. There are plenty of new platforms in the works.

    Overloading means changing signature as well as implementation of a method.
    Overriding is changing only implementation of method with signature unchanged.
    From ABAP perspective, only the CONSTRUCTOR method can be overloaded in a subclass i.e both the signature and implementation can be adapted in subclass.
    Any other method can't be overloaded. It can only be redefined/overridden i.e implementation changed with signature unchanged.
    In ABAP  there is something called a redefinition.
    When you inherit a class from a super class, you can redifne a method. You cannot chnage the signature( Interface) of the method. It will remain the same as that of the super class.You must redefine a method in the same visibility section in which it appears in the superclass.
    Eg.
    CLASS C_SUPER_CLASS DEFINITION .
    PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS: DRIVE ,
    STOP.
    PROTECTED SECTION.
    DATA SPEED TYPE I.
    ENDCLASS.
    CLASS C_SUPER_CLASS IMPLEMENTATION.
    METHOD DRIVE.
    SPEED = 0.
    WRITE: / 'Bike speed =', SPEED.
    ENDMETHOD.
    ENDCLASS.
    CLASS C_SUB_CLASS DEFINITION INHERITING FROM C_SUPER_CLASS.
    PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS DRIVE REDEFINITION.
    ENDCLASS
    CLASS C_SUB_CLASS IMPLEMENTATION.
    METHOD DRIVE.
    SPEED = SPEED + 10.

  • Chapter and subheading decimal numbering

    I don’t know if its my terminology that’s letting me down but I’m having trouble finding out about how to do chapter and subheading numbers in my dissertation e.g:
    6. Chapter 6 of my dissertation
    6.1 Subheading 1
    6.2 Subheading 2
    ...and so forth. I can do it manually, but was wondering if Pages has the capability to do chapter and subheading numbers automatically, thus duplicate the numbering and chapters/subheadings in my TOC.
    If it is possible, how do I perform this function and are there any special formatting things I have to do like section breaks?
    I’m using Pages '05 and the default blank template, but I have had to modify all the paragraph styles to Gill Sans to comply with my university publishing regulations.

    Hello Will,
    you can achieve this chapter numbering by using the list kind "Tiered Numbers".
    Type a chapter title and show the text inspector and there the second tab "List". Choose in the section menu "Bullets & Numbering" the item "Tired Numbers" in the pop-up menu. Let the first item "1. 2. 3. 4." of the below appearing pop-up menu selected. Now adjust the options for "Number Indent" and "Text Indent" at the bottom of the inspector window if you want. You can adjust the space below the text etc. in the text inspector.
    If you are ready with all adjustments and the font set to Gill Sans, show the styles drawer (menu: "View/Show Styles Drawer") and choose the menu item "Format/Create New Paragraph Style From Selection...". Give it an appropriate name and you are done. By the way, you can change any text attribute and paragraph/list option whenever you want by clicking on the red triangle (if you have changed something when the text cursor is shown in that paragrap this red shows you a change) in the styles drawer and choosing the item "Redefine Style From Selection". Now all paragraphs in your document with this style will be changed to the new attributes/options, but all emphesis words/chars will stay.
    Now every time you need a new subheading level use the right pointing arrow button in the first section of the tab button "List" inside of the text inspector. If you need a superheading level, use the left pointing arrow button.
    Be sure the option "Continue from previous" in the tab "List" of the text inspector is active and that you assigned the correct list style to the chapter/subheading text. The TOC has to be set to "Tiered Numbers", too.
    It is a bit tricky, but for me it works fine.

  • How to Change "Chapter" to German "Kapitel" in TOC ?

    Hi there,
    I write a book in German and I can't find out how to rename the words "Section", "Chapter" etc. so that they appear in German as "Abschnitt" and "Kapitel" in the Table Of Contents. Photos are attached....
    If I change them manually like on the second picture they are not being changed in the TOC also.....how can I define them to change automatically in my table of contents?
    On the First Picture you see that there is still the word "Chapter 1" and "Section 1"...How to change that in "Kapitel 1" and "Abschnitt 1"?
    Thanks in advance!

    See:
    How to set Chapter Title:
    http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-set-chapter-titles-in-ibooks-author .html
    ...and don't forget to use 'Apply Changes' where applicable.
    But if you are just looking to change the language, you may not need to do anything other than changing your computer's language and your iPad's language to German so that those OS's are both configured correctly.

  • Changing "Chapter" to Spanish "Capitulo"

    I am writing a book in Spanish on an English system MacBook Pro. I have all the text changed into Spanish, including the TOC, but can't get the word "Chapter" which shows up when you pinch a page and see the miniture pages at the bottom of the page. "Chapter 1" shows up at the top of the page. I tried changing the computer system to Spanish, which changed all my menus in iBook Author to Spanish, but not that text. I can move it around in its text block in "TOC", but I can't select it.
    Can I change it and, if so, where do I go to change it?
    TIA

    In the Layouts panel, you need to doubleclick the title bar, where it says 'Chapter' on a dark grey background, *above* the chapter/preface layouts. Same thing with 'Section'-type layouts. You can change their type name to anything you want.

  • How do I change headers and footers in one single document in Pages?

    How do I change headers and footers in one single document in Pages? I would appreciate any help as this seems to be quite frustrating. Thanks so much!!

    Why are you not sure whether you have Mavericks or not?
    And what version of Pages are you talking about?
    Insert a Section Break and uncheck the copies previous option.
    All the Headers and Footers are the same within a Section.

  • Hotmail suddenly changed appearance and now presents with the top of the page blue with lines. I have a screenshot...

    Running Firefox 15.0. Hotmail suddenly changed appearance and my page is not at the bottom of the screen. The top 5/6 of the page is a series of horizontal blue strips. Text in the blue section is the Windows Live titles like "Home, Devices, Mobile, etc". When I try to compose a new message, text from the blue area partially covers the "To" button, so I have to position the cursor at the very bottom of the button to enter an address. I tried Hotmail in IE and it appears just fine, so it must be a compatibility problem between Hotmail & Firefox. Hotmail has not responded to my email questions. I could understand if this happened at the very beginning of a session, just after I power up, but this happened after I had been active in Hotmail and other sites. Other sites are not affected, just Hotmail, and just in Firefox.
