Anchor text to object feature

I would like to see a feature where I can anchor text to an object, not just anchor an object to a text frame.
This would be useful for doing callouts in illustrations. I have been able to anchor callout pointers to a text frame, but that is awkward. When I change the text, I have to do additional editing. If I have a pointer object and I can anchor a text frame to it, I could just change the text of the callout.

I tried grouping. It still requires some additional work if text changes. For doing callouts, it would just be easier to be able to anchor the text frame to the pointer graphic.
My work around is simple enough. I have a pointer graphic and I have a text frame. I move one, then move the other.
Here's the point really. If you can have an "anchor" feature, where one thing is anchored to another, why limit it to just anchoring object to text. why not allow anchoring of a text frame to an object?
Thanks for you comments

  • Inconsistent placement of anchored text frame in data merge document

    Just writing up this bug so that anyone else who encounters it can find out what's going on with less head-scratching.
    It seems that InDesign's data merge feature gets confused when there are anchored objects in a text frame that's anchored inside another text frame, which can result in:
    exported PDFs that don't match the InDesign preview when viewed in Acrobat (so, nasty surprises on some pages after exporting)
    InDesign previews that - bizarrely - show differently depending on whether you navigated to the preview by hitting the arrow keys in the Data Merge box or by entering a number.
    (sadly I can't provide a file for confidentiality reasons - but the problem point had multi-line data merge entries, a text frame that was anchored in another text frame of equal width, and anchored images and text frames in this anchored text frame)
    There were certain entires where, if I navigate to them in the preview using the 'next' and 'previous' keys, there was 4mm less space between the nested text frame and the previous line than if I navigate to it by entering the number. Exporting as a PDF through data merge used the variant with more space.
    Re-working the area in question so that the nested text frame wasn't needed seems to have removed the problem (but loses the ability to vertically align these elements in a fixed size frame that is in the text flow).

    You didn't say what version of ID, or whter a single or multiple record per page merge, but the Preview is known to be buggy for multiple records since CS5 and might be for single records as well.
    I have an annual directory that is built by data merge with one section in each listing as an anchored frame, and I've never had a problem, but it's not as complex as your description, nor do I ever merge to PDF (though I've heard here from several users that it's more reliable).
    One thing you might want to try is merging without the preview step, but do it from a "fresh" file by copying and pasting your placeholders into a new document. If the problem is with the preview it seems that it "infects" the file and even merging without touching the preview button may not work.

  • How do I show the anchor text instead of the link in a pdf?

    I'm using Adobe Acrobat 7 to create a PDF.
    I'm creating hyperlinks inside the PDF that link to Web links.
    When the reader hovers over the text I want the anchor text to pop-up
    instead of the Web link. How is this done?
    For example:
    If someone hovers their mouse over the text "click here for info" and
    the link is "http://www.hyperlinkforinfo..com"
    ...I want "click here for info" to pop-up instead of "http://www.hyperlinkforinfo..com"
    Thanks!

    As you can observe by a look-see at Acrobat's Link Tool dialog, there is no facility for adding a "tool tip" or an alternate text description.
    Nor can such be provided upfront in an authoring file and migrated into the output PDF.
    While a properly developed Tagged PDF supports providing Alternate Text description for the <Link> element this is focused to AT applications.
    Typically, entered Alt Text for the <Link> element will not "display" on screen ala "tool tip" idea.
    Keep in mind that the feature set associated with a PDF link annotation is not at all the same as what is associated with HTML elements.
    PDF (ISO 3200-1) and HTML (any flavor or 'recommendation') are rather different creatures.
    Be well...

  • InDesign CS3 - Is it possible to thread anchored text across pages?

    New to InDesign. Just learned about anchored objects. Have anchored text that is longer than the text it refers to. Text exists in the first column and would like for text to thread to the first column on the next page.

    I don't think so. As you have it now, the callout stays with the line the object is anchored to, and it doesn't break and continue at the end of a page -- which is a problem when your callout line is near or at the bottom of the page.
    I don't suppose you could create separate anchored frames for each of the text lines in the callout ... It would work for a while, but you would run into problems when editing -- you cannot easily edit a single callout as the frames are not threaded, and if two of these objects end up on the same line in the original text thread, they would appear on top of eachother.
    Any of the other guys & gals out there with a good idea?

  • How to copy/paste anchor text box to its anchor point in text and delete all empty anchors?

    hi all
    i have a document of few pages but one story. The right column is the main text box and on many places anchored text boxes are placed which appeared on the left column as shown below.
    i want text of each anchor-text-box to be cut from its place and paste at its insertion/anchor point and delete all empty anchored boxes.
    I am trying since morning but i unable to reach anchor object reference. Any help on how to start with will be helpful.
    virender

    Ok, let's say you have one main text box (not anchored) and three text boxes that are anchored to text within it. The first one is anchored with text, the second one is unanchored, and the third one is empty (I'm not going to get into inline anchoring vs. custom anchoring since you didn't bring it up in your post).
    We cycle through the items on the page:
    function main(){
      var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
      var myPages = myDoc.pages.everyItem().getElements();
      for (var i = 0; i < myPages.length; i++){
        var myPage = myPages[i];
        //Checks that the page is valid, and that it is not a master page. If either is true, skips to the next page.
        if (myPage.isValid == false) continue;
        if (myPage.parent instanceof MasterSpread) continue;
        var myItems = myPage.allPageItems;
        for (var j = 0; j < myItems.length; j++){
          //Current item.
          var myItem = myItems[j];
          //If myItem doesn't have a Character parent, it is not anchored.
          //The first and third text frames would fail this test.
          if (!(myItem.parent instanceof Character)) continue;
          //We only care about text frames.
          if (!(myItem instanceof TextFrame)) continue;
          //I think the only way this would happen would be if you had an image or
          //something else unexpected within the frame. I check for it so no content
          //is inadvertently lost.
          else if (myItem.texts.length > 1) continue;
          //If we're still in this iteration of the loop, all qualifications are met.
          //Flatten the text frame.
          //I don't use layers that often so, to me, flatten makes sense. You may want
          //to use a different term if there's a chance for confusion.
          flattenItem(myItem);
    function flattenItem(funcItem)
         //Hold onto the anchor character.
        var myParent = funcItem.parent;
         //Duplicate the text from within the frame so that it appears right after the anchor.
         //There may be other methods, but this works for me. I try to avoid copy/paste
         //so as not to deal with any clipboard mishaps. I added a check in case of empties.
         if (funcItem.texts.length > 0){funcItem.texts[0].duplicate(LocationOptions.AFTER, myParent.insertionPoints[0]);}
         //Replace the anchor character itself with a space (or whatever) which also
         //deletes the text frame it was anchoring.
        myParent.contents = " ";
    I guess the takeaway might be that you're not looking at the main text frame and then checking to see if anything is anchored to it. You're looking at each text frame and figuring out if it is anchored. That's my approach, anyway.

  • Anchored text boxes in XML

    I am wondering if anyone can help..
    I have created a structured indesign document (structured as in tagged for XML import). My problem is the first tagged object is an anchored text box which needs to sit on top of the second anchored tagged picture box. This layout is fine before importing the xml file. however after import the first anchored text box disappears and is replaced by normal text.. is there anyway to stop the box disappearing after import?
    any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using Indesign CS4 on a PC.

    Not that I know of off the top of my head. I'd suggest that, if you are allowed to do so, gin up an example INDD file, put it up on YouSendIt or a similar service, and invite the forum-ites to take a crack at it. Probably, one of us can come up with some clever method to avoid the need for anchored frames at all; I can't visualize why you would need to do so, and my fair-to-middlin' knowledge of XML export and import in ID makes me think that you can't flow text into and out of anchored text frames with XML. However, I will dig into it and see if I can't confirm or deny this hunch of mine.

    I copied text & paisted it and then draged the 3 photos from the file...then clicked on the photo then clicked the inline boxon tool bar nexed to floating one and that is how I did it
    I do not know what you mean "cut & paist"  how do I get the photo in from my picter folder if I do not drag it to the page in Pages? 
    I went to my photo folder and copied a photo and paisted the photo on the top left part of the page and it went there but there was no text to the right of photo...I could crop the photo to what ever size but no text to the right of photo...
    This is just too big of a mess of a program as it should be easier then this,,,I hav e 300 photos in this project and would have to re-paist them all...that is nuts...
    I see the button to the right of inline and floating that has 6 [lace to have the photo but the text does not float around the photo...
    If this is what your talking about this very little freedom in my page layout as I need it to let me place it where I need it to be and the wrap the text...
    There has to be an easier way to get my books ready for other formats other that Apple's iPad...iBooks Author was way eisier to make ready for iTunes...Love that program!!!
    Want my books for sale on all the other formats and was told by Apple Pages whould do it...
    I must be be out to lunch or the designers at Apple are ???

  • Anchor text for images: where insert it?

    I see a field for ALT attributes in property bar, but what
    about anchor text for you image links? How does one insert that? is
    there a filed for that there? thanks

    You don't need a hotspot to make an image a link :-)
    Highlight your image, and in the PI give it a link. However,
    be aware that
    you may get a blue border around this image if it is created
    as a link - you
    need to use css to remove it.

  • How do I link to Anchor Text from browser to PDF file exported from InDesign?

    I see that this question was asked previously but not answered:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3737541
    I need a way to link to topics (from an HTML page) within a structured PDF file generated from InDesign, i.e. one that has an interactive bookmarks
    panel, that doesn't break the links when the file is updated.
    In particular, I don't want to refer to:
    *  page numbers because the document will repaginate when it is updated, breaking existing links
    * named destinations that are numeric as addition/deletion of topics renumbers the named destinations, breaking the links.
    Is there any option in InDesign that creates named destinations derived from bookmark titles as that would seem to solve my problem?
    I have a similar need, but I have not been able to find an answer anywhere online, even after a several hours of research.
    I am on contract with General Electric to develop a UI Style Guide for an international team of developers. My client wants to be able to distribute the Style Guide as a PDF document, but needs to provide links to specific topics when submitting a "Story" in an Agile development environment to the programmers.
    Ideally, I would like to be able to create "named destinations" in InDesign such that I can provide the client with a list of URLs similar to this format:
    file:\\StyleGuide\Test1-20131024a.pdf\#nameddest=AnchorText-01
    However, I can not figure out how to create "named destinations" in the PDF file from the InDesign file in which I have created the Anchor Text in the Hyperlinks tab.
    Alternately, the client would be satisfied with the ability to link to specific bookmarks in the exported PDF file that have been derived from the configuration of the Table of Contents styles, but my research has led me to believe that it is not possible to hyperlink from a browser window to a bookmark in a PDF file (only to specific page numbers, search word lists, named destinations, and comments) as described here: http://blogs.adobe.com/tcs/2011/01/tcs-specific/linking-to-a-page-within-a-pdf-and-more.ht ml
    Having been using InDesign since 1988, when it was PageMaker, I would prefer to use it to provide GE with the most attractive deliverable, but they are now leaning heavily toward having me licensed with Madcap Flare, which has this capability built in:
    http://webhelp.madcapsoftware.com/flare9/Default.htm#Nav_Links/Named_Destinations/Creating _Named_Destinations.htm
    Please help me to find a solution that will allow me to continue using InDesign for this project.
    Thank you!

    Follow-up post (solution is not available):
    I have just completed a phone call with Gaurev Sethi of Adobe escalated technical support in which I shared my screen to explain and demonstrate the desire to link from an external URL to a specific location within a PDF file that has been exported from InDesign. After 40 minutes, during which I was placed on hold a few times while he consulted with his team, it was determined that the desired functionality is not supported in InDesign and has been identified as a limitation of the software.
    In researching alternate documentation software that supports PDF export, I discovered that Madcap Software supports this functionality in its Flare product:
    http://webhelp.madcapsoftware.com/flare9/Default.htm#Nav_Links/Named_Destinations/Creating _Named_Destinations.htm
    Note that linking via URL to a bookmarked location within a PDF is not supported:

  • I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant and my mac mini.  I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers.

    I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant from my mac mini.  I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers.  It keeps saying that I only have 2 devices setup, my iPad and my macbook pro.  When I mess with the setting on my mac mini, it goes from saying that that is one of the devices to my macbook pro being the 2nd device.  I think that something happened as a result of my using the migration assistant and now it thinks that my macbook pro and my mac mini are one and the same computer.  Any ideas?

    Thanks, Sig.
    The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
    In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem.  Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page.  Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
    If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them. 
    (I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

  • Beginners Guide sound installation -- OSS and ALSA objective features

    Beginners Guide sound installation -- OSS and ALSA objective features needed
    Hi,
    In most wiki pages i just edit the things that i think need editing. Just look at the oss history
    In all those cases i didn't really saw a need to ask for permission.. that would kinda destroy the wiki idea.
    However i want to change the sound instructions in the beginners guide so i made a copy of the entire guide and the part that i changed there is: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Use … ling_Sound now i have a slight issue there. As you can see i'm in favor of OSS and because you can spot that it's not objective. Now i would ask 2 things.
    1. Could you all post your features of OSS and ALSA
    2. Once that's done can i have permission to place that section in the beginners guide? that will also include removing the sound installation from the beginners guide which i already did in my version
    My personal reason to do this. i've read this  and am since then pro OSS and against the ALSA/PulseAudio combo. i think that combo needs to get out of linux (most notably Fedora and Ubuntu) ASAP. and oss needs to go back into the linux kernel
    Thank you for your time,
    Mark

    I'm an alsa/pulse user, so I'll give a bit of the 'other side'.
    Alsa/pulse
    Pros:-
    network sound
    advanced connection of sink/source (including merging sinks)
    bluetooth support!
    highly supported by existing apps, either through directly supporting Pulse or through its alsa plugin (you should not need to recompile properly-written apps which do not assume they should write audio data directly to hardware, I think I only needed to recompile mpd on my system)
    Cons:-
    Setup isn't the easiest. Can't comment vs OSS4 because I haven't tried it
    OSS4
    Pros:-
    Everyone seems to say sound quality is better. I guess that's because they're comparing it with dmix alsa. Use pulse with alsa and you should not notice any difference in sound quality though.
    Cons:-
    Most apps nowadays default output to alsa. Meaning OSS plays them using an alsa plugin.
    USB support is admittedly skimpy.
    EDIT: Having read the sound article you referred to, my only comment is that the writer really has it in for Pulse... 3 seconds latency, where'd he get that from? I use pulse for audio recording (when I'm lazy to fire up JACK) and while there IS latency, its definitely in the ms range.
    Thanx for the input

    If you don't know, please don't put in wiki, this could cause unnecessary problems.  As for the mms section:
    If your stream sounds ugly in totem like it did with me then you could try to play it with another codec like ffmpeg (mplayer). That "fixed" the issue for me. This will not fix the issue that somehow pops up in gstreamer when playing MMS streams but it will give you the option to play it with good sound quality. Playing it in mplayer is simple:
    # mplayer mmsh://yourstreamurl
    Could you fix this?  ffmpeg is not a codec .  Also define ugly, and what is somehow?

    As for the things you didn't know. As soon as i fully understand how i can get a microphone working in OSS i will add that to the wiki as well. Unless you already know it.. in that case, feel free to add it.
    For the mic, I did get mine going.  Can't remember just how I did mine (sorry, think I had to disable one of the inputs),  but do remember to prevent it from passing through the speakers had to disable "Misc Microphone".

    For libflashsupport on the same page you linked it clearly states:
    #  Flash V9 and V10 require libflashsupport to output sound via OSS. Typically a 32-bit version of the library is required.
    # Flash V10 has a 64-bit version which requires a 64 bit libflashsupport.
    Also i tested it with and without libflashsupport. On archlinux (x64 running here) there most certainly is a need for libflashsupport when you want to have sound in your flash. And yes i tested the archlinux OSS version and the mercurial version (running now) bith need it  installed manually! On my pc sound in flash didn't work without it but did with it. So, no not removing from the wiki as it's needed. But i see you removed it for me! please do NOT do that if you didn't even verified it. I use flash 10 x64 and i need it!
    As for the ffmpeg "codec" changed it to backend.
    And i did get the microphone working near perfect: http://www.4front-tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=13192
    Now for some news you all might like.
    On my school i need to do an investigation to whatever i want and i'm heavily thinking about investigating the pros/cons of alsa compared to oss (or oss compared to alsa). That investigation will take from monday next week till next mondey till friday 23 of oktober. In that investigation i'm going to do some in depth look of alsa and oss and that will include the usability as well.
    Following up on that investigation i will spend another 8 weeks on my school making a volume control application that can be used with alsa and oss and easily expandable with other sound systems. The goal of this is to make one sound application that can manage (in the first place) alsa and oss. oss is going to be implemented and alsa is probably going to be dummy implemented because it's likely way to much for me to implement both.
    Before you get to exited, both projects (investigating and making the application) are just made up today and i just don't know if both will get accepted by my school. I asked one teacher and he liked the idea a lot and could potentially have a value for the sound management under linux. Once i do get this started i will involve the community (YOU!) with this since this project can't be done without the community specially the investigation.
    And once i start and have something to tell/ask i will blog about it on http://blog.mageprojects.com
    edit::
    And this idea already got dumped. read more a few posts down or click: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 34#p612634

  • How to call another form ,if option is entered in a text item object ???

    hi ,
    I am created an application ,where in i press a button which call another form having a menu .
    I select any one of the option from the menu ....i enter a number in the text item object of this form ....depending upon what option i have typed .....i would like to call another form ...
    My questions are
    1) Which trigger of this text item should be enabled,and what code to i write in this trigger ?
    2) Since this form is not having any database insert,delete ,update or query (select)
    it should directly go to the new form,whose option i provide in the text item .
    Sunny

    hey bro, i am assuming that ur text item contains the form name, any relevant trigger can be used for user action, like key-enter, post-change or key-next-item.
    to run a form u can use functions call_form or open_form with proper paramters.
    if u want to forward the entered text in the item, use global variable for the session.
    it doesnt matter if the form contains database items or blocks, all u have to do is run the form.
    e.g,
    declare
    VAR VARCHAR2-------;
    begin
    /* u can use the variable to concatinate or modify too, also can use global variable
    var:=:urblock.uritem;
    /* use ur own relevant parameters */
    open_form(VAR,ACTIVATE,NO_SESSION);
    exception
    when---------
    end;

    Hi there
    I am new to oracle, i have used browse Object in oracle 10g as an easy way to create my table instead of scripting.

    Many thanks

  • How can I save an image in a pdf that can not be removed using 'Edit Object' feature in Acrobat X?

    I have a pdf that has an image of a seal contained it it. I'd like to send the document out to other people but don't want them to be able to remove the seal using the 'Edit Object' feature under 'Tools' in Adobe Acrobat X. Can someone tell me how to do this please? Thanks in advance!

    Apply a security policy that prevents editing. This is not a 100%
    fool-proof protection, though, but it will work in Acrobat.
