Batch remove filename spaces AFTER import?

Hi there -
Fairly knowledgeable about workflow and best practices in LR. This time I built a new catalog for a non-photo project and imported 250+ variously named images - wanting to keep the unique names. Now that I'm exporting I realized I forgot to update the "replace spaces" option before I imported. I already put effort in the ratings, collections, and keywords and have no desire to delete all and start over, or do it manually.
Are there any batch renaming options to find/ replace spaces?
Perhaps some handy script to run within the catalog? (Not that I have any experience with scripts!)
Thanks in advance!!

Write subroutine to remove single space after string

Hi Expert,
I am loading Master Data for Inventory , but due to space after my Material record (eg . Correct record - L20233 Error record - "L20233 " ) space sfter 3 charector . it is throughing me error. after edting records in PSA i am able load it further to 0material . Can anyone please help me in writing routine at Transformation level to remove space while loading . Step by step approach is highly appreciated.

i have implemented start routine and it is working perfectly for loading data stage, But it is not able to delete records which is already exists. Probable reason it PERTICULAR MATERIAL USED AT SEVERAL PLACES is it correct ? --- 1
Regarding this try checking if the keys you're comparing to delete the records is correct
finally i have decided to add extension to material as original material suppose W02005 . Then while loading it will remove space from behind and add DONOTUSE to it so final it looks like W02005DONOTUSE .
Regarding this point, this can be achieved easily in the routine itself. Just check the length of the material field and append this based on your condition.
You can append like this
concatenate material 'DONOTUSE' into materlal.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

Removing white space after Spry Menu Bar...

I having a bit of a problem trying to remove a little white space after my Spry Menu bar, when I set it to 8.6em theres a little white space, when I set the width to 9.7 it goes too far, I changed it to 137 pixels, however in Firefox and IE, it messes up the layout.
Also what do you do if there a different browsers, where some layouts are out of place, do you need to detect the browser with JS?

Batch Rename Raw Files After Import?

Can you batch rename raw files after you import, so that the file name changes in Aperture and on the hard drive? I want to be able to edit images, and then rename only the keepers. This has been asked before here, but I could not find an answer.
Thanks!

File -> Export, Kind: Original
When you import a Raw to iPhoto it automatically creates a jepg preview of the file. Why? Because you cannot do anything with a Raw: you cannot print it, use it a slideshow and so on. However, with this preview you can work with the photo immediately.
You can, however, also process the Raw in iPhoto simply by editing it. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut). The output from the processing then replaces the preview. You can choose to save your output as either jpeg or tiff in the iPhoto Preferences.
When you are processing Raw in iPhoto you will see the Raw badge on the bottom of the iPhoto Window
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
Note: After you have processed a Raw, subsequent edits to the photo are carried out on the processed jpeg (or tiff) not the Raw. If you want to go back to the original then you need to use the Photos -> Reprocess Raw command.
Aperture works in an entirely different way. What are you trying to do, exactly?

How do I remove extra space after an image in an ePub created with InDesign?

I've designed more than a dozen ebooks with InDesign and have recently been having problems with the spacing after images, both images that are anchored in the text or stand-alone and exported through the Articles Panel. Following are a few details:
• In the Object Export Settings, I have the vertical spacing set to 0 both before and after the images and no breaks added.
• In the Export panel, I do not have any vertical spacing applied to images.
• I do not have any Object Style settings applied.
• It doesn't seem to matter if I anchor the image into the text or have it as a stand-alone image in the Articles Panel with the caption after it in a separate text box, also in the Articles Panel.
• I broke down the ePub into an html file and did not see any div or span classes that were different between images that are showing correctly vs. incorrectly.
• Extra space appears in both iBooks on my computer, as well as on my iPad.
• I converted to a mobi file for the Kindle and the space wasn't there.
See attached screen shot. There shouldn't be that big gap between the image and the orange caption.
Any help or suggestions anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I've tried everything I can think of with the same results over and over!

Yes. That is the technique I traditionally use to drop an image into text. I even cut and pasted again as you suggested with the same result. Trust me, this is driving me nuts. I'm not doing anything different than before, but my results are different, even within the same document. I'll attach a few examples, all from this same document.
How the space after my in-line image is supposed to look:
And then a few of the pages with the mystery gap:

How can I remove blank space after month value while selecting to_char(sysdate)

select to_char(sysdate,'dd-month-yyyy') from dual;
when I give this query, I'm getting a blank space after the month value. How can I trim that?

Or else try this one
select to_char(sysdate,'dd-fmmonth-yyyy') from dual;
Best of luck.

Regular Expression for Removing a space after the a... tag?

Hi there,
I'm fairly new to using Regular Expressions, but am in need of one that will help me find all <a...> tags that have a space immediately following that tag and replace it with the exact same tag, but no space following the <a...> tag.
So, for example, a regular expression that will find:
<a href="somelink.html"> Somelink</a>
as well as:
<a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('sub-nav_button_professional_portal','','images/sub-nav_button_ professional_portal_f2.png',1)"> Somelink</a>
And just remove the space appearing as part of the hyperlink. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Thought of that, but it would remove spaces from crucial areas of my pages. For example, conditional logic within a script, like:
for (i = 0; i > (a.length - 2); i += 3)
would become:
for (i = 0; i >(a.length - 2); i += 3)
While that wouldn't pose a huge problem, I'm messing up the syntax in order to fix something else, which is why I wanted to go the route of a regular expression. I need to replace all "<a ...> " (space included) tags with "<a ...>" and make sure that the properties within the <a> tag stay in tact.

Removing Extra Space after Crop?

I have tried to find a solution for this problem and haven't found an answer so maybe someone can help me.
I am editing some videos and I want to crop out a large section of them. When I use the crop tool it removes the part of the video no problem -- but then I am left with a small section of video and a huge black area (where what I removed used to be). I can resize the video but it doesn't let me actually remove the black area for some reason -- also I can't seem to move the new video at all (its in the upper left hand corner of the cross hairs and the entire rest is black). Is there any way to remove the excess or export my newly cropped video (and not the blank space)?
Thanks for all of your help

Park the playhead in the Timeline at a suitable reference point for your cropping/enlarging.
In the Canvas, select Image + Wireframe in the box at the top center of the window.
Select the clip to load it into the viewer.
Use the crop tool to adjust the image to your liking. You can also drag the copped image around the Canvas window while the cursor displays as four-direction arrows.
Now go to the Motion tab in the Viewer and scale up the image as needed, using the Scale settings in the Basic Motion section.
Be aware that the more you enlarge, the more pixelated the image will become.

Removing unsupported files after importing folders?

I have lots of folders on my Mac that have been imported into LR, however, there are lots of files inside these folders that LR does not support like .png files so they never were imported. If I go into all of these folders and remove the files that LR doesnt like,
Will it cause a problem since the folders have already been imported?
Thanks.

This does not cause a problem. It is not the folders that have been imported, it is individual files that have been imported. This is always true, even though sometimes we here speak (improperly) of "importing a folder".

Get-Recipient or Get-Mailbox and "white spaces" after import user to TXT files.

Hi Guys,
In this week I had small task to move mailboxes from old SBS to new Exchange user. I have done this task with small problems. I decided of course to use Powershell to make my life simple.
Step 1.
Get-Recipient | Select-Object name, Database | where database -Match "Mailbox Database" | FT - Property name | Out-File -FilePath c:\ex_users.txt
or
Get-Mailbox | select name, servername | where ServerName -match Server1 | select Name | Out-File -FilePath c:\ex_users.txt -Encoding UTF8
Unfortunately I had to spent some time to clean output files. After export files I noticed that something is wrong with text format.
How can I avoid "white spaces" ?

We always want to do our filtering as close to the left of a command as possible. Keeping this in mind, the first thing I looked for was to see if Get-Recipient had a filter parameter and it does.
Get-Recipient -Filter {Database -eq 'CN=Mailbox Database,CN=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT),CN=Administrative Groups,CN=Organization,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=mydomin,DC=com'} | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name | Out-File -FilePath 'C:\outfile-filter.txt'
This seemed somewhat cumbersome because it required a lengthy DistinguishedName (DN). By the way, to get the DN of a database, use a modified version of this code.
Get-MailboxDatabase -Identity databasename | Select-Object DistinguishedName
I decided we would try filtering with the Where-Object cmdlet much like you did in your example. Noticed that I bumped it to the left so our filter ran prior to our select - something you should always do.
Get-Recipient | Where-Object {$_.Database -match 'Mailbox Database'} | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name | Out-File -FilePath 'C:\outfile-where.txt'
Whichever way you do this, either the first or third code sample should help you write your data to a text file without the white space issue. I haven't looked at your second example but I suspect you could use some of this post to figure that one out yourself.
Let us know and good luck.

Removing extra spaces from a long document

Hello
I have seen a number of find/change and GREP formulas to do similar things. I have NO scripting or coding experience and have labored to understand GREP.
So I am a little afraid to use it as I don't know what all the modifiers refer to (I do have a printout of some neat GREP cheatsheets like Mike Witherell's that I can absorb until I obtain a good reference )
I need something I can copy and paste into either find/change or GREP dialog that will do the following in less than 12 steps (hopefully) without doing something catastrophic like removing all of my paragraph marks (which I almost did using someones GREP expression)
No spaces before any comma, period, exclamation mark, question mark, colon, semicolon
One space only after any of those
One Space before any opening parenthesis and one space after the closing parenthesis
No space after the opening parenthesis or before the closing parenthesis
Remove any double or extra spaces ( en, em etc.)
Remove any commas before parentheses
Remove any spaces after a paragraph mark
I think that's it
I did find this one recently (Maybe Jongware?)
[~m~>~f~|~S~s<~/~,~3~4%]{2
Which from my dim understanding addresses em, en, flush and hair space , nonbreaking space ,figure space,third space--not sure of the rest. Really this is way over my head.
I know this will be a piece of cake for you guys
Thanks

A: Removing extra spaces from a long document

Peter is too modest, he's doing just great.
No space BEFORE-One Space after ---period,semicolon,colon, exclamation, question mark,CLOSING Parenth,Bracket,Brace, single & Dbl. quotation marks
Find (\s)([.,;:!\)\]\}~}~]])
Replace with $2
No space AFTER-One Space Before----OPENING bracket,brace,parenthesis,Dbl & single quotes
Find ([\[\{$~{~[])(\s)
Replace with $1
These remove the space before/after but do not automatically add a space after/before.
In the first case, you could add a space right after the '$2' in the Replace With string, but it already may have a space, in which case you suddenly have two. One alternative is to optionally remove it with the Find string (add it as an optional match) and always add it with the Replace string, but remember that this string will only be found if there is a space preceding it. That way you'd only check the space after in cases where there was a bad space before.
So I propose you add another two find/changes to add the space, only when necessary.
One Space After: find
([.,;:!$\]\}~}~]])(?!\s)
replace:
$0 [followed by one single space]
One Space Before: find
(?<!\s)([\[\{$~{~[])
replace:
[one single space] $0
Color-coding with my WhatTheGrep might make it just a tad clearer what's going on in that jumble of codes:
(1 [ .,;:! $ \] \} ~} ~] ] 1) (?!! \s !)
and
(?<!<! \s <!) (1 [ \[ \{ \( ~{ ~[ ] 1)
(Orange is lookahead/lookbehind, blue is a regular escaped character, pink is an InDesign special character, green is normal grouping parentheses, and lavender is a character group.)

Inconsistent space after graphic frames

Hi,
I'm trying to create a consistent-looking manual, where space after imported graphics is consistent. Currently, that is not proving to be easy. For example, look at the difference between the space after the first and second graphics below (the first is not what I want; the second is):
All the text paragraph formats have identical space before and after
All the graphics frames use exactly the same Object style
All the graphics frames are in a paragraph style named "Anchor" that has 0pt above and 6pt below (obviously, the 6pt below is not 'sticking' for some reason)
So, is this a grid problem, or what? Align to Grid is set to None in the "Anchor" para style. I'm not (consciously) using the baseline grid in my manual.

can be sooo many things depending on your styles, setup, wrap, etc...
but a quick fix: anchor the graphic on a new para, adjust the paragraphs (your lines of text as u have it) spacing (before and after) to more (twice more) then the leading.
your approach to this project is not ideal but hopefully this advice sorts you out.
