Can I make text invisible?

Back in the days, I used invisible text format to make editing and organizing comments in MS Word. I used them like headers, but they didn't have to be there. When I printed the doc, I turned "invisible text off" and the visible text formatted itself (the space used by invisible text—whether a line or paragraph—closed up).
It was a very handy way to organize large docs, by using headings, but not having to delete them when printing.
I don't see a way to do that in Pages. Did I miss something?

Not the same thing, it still occupies space.

Comments do not directly shrink main text. Only the screen view changes to accomodate the comments. They need to be turned off when printing however.

Can I make text orientation of a field in ALV 90 degree to horizontal

Hi
I have to make text orientation of a field in ALV 90 degree to horizontal, just like we can do in excel sheet. Is it possible to do so. If yes, then how can we do it? I can not attach the illustration but you can type in some text in excel field and then right click--> format--> on popup window make the orientation 90 degrees.

No dude,

Can't make buttons invisible

I am trying to use buttons to show word definitions on mouse rollover. The definition is in the tooltip and is used as the label. The definition shows, but I can't make the button invisible. It shows as a solid block with the label. I've changed the Appearance to no line and no fill, but nothing changes.

Acrobat X Pro. Could it be that I have to produce the document for distribution before they disappear?
I've inserted a graphic with all the settings I have used, but it may not be readable. I've picked Hidden and no line or background, but it still shows ups.
Thanks for your help.

Can You Make Text Links Different Colours in DW Cs5?

Hi everyone, in DW Cs5 how do you make text links on the same page different colours, I have some text links across the top of the page, these go with a certain colour scheme but some more on the page it's self these need to be a different colour.
I have done this before by accident but unfortunately I have no longer got that file. Information for text in either html or css would be very helpful.
Many thanks
Gareth

Change this:
<style type="text/css">
.def13grey4 {
     font-size: 14px;
     font-weight: bold;
     color: #333;
.def14grey4 a {
     color: #333;
</style>
to this:
<style type="text/css">
.def14grey4 a:link{font-weight: bold; color: #333;}
.def14grey4 a:visited{color: #999;}
.def14grey4 a:hover,
.def14grey4 a:active,
.def14grey4 a:focus{color:#4488C3;} /**adjust colors to suit**/
</style>
Change this in the HTML:
<td height="354" colspan="3" valign="top" bgcolor="#CCCCCC" class="def13grey4">
<p>Black Shirts #002</p>
</td>
To this:
<td height="354" colspan="3" valign="top" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<p><a class="def14grey4 href="some-link.html">Black Shirts #002</a></p>
</td>

How can I make text slide in from the right?

I'm really enjoying learning more with Captivate 6 and the community has been very helpful so far. I can't figure out how to get very simple text effects/transitions such as bringing text from the side of the frame to "slide" into place. This has been a text effect of every program for a decade, is this basic transition available in 6? I'm making a list on a few screens and would very much like the text to simply slide in from the right.
I'm about to just make a transparent png with the text to accomplish this for now considering it's my best bet. Any information would be handy. Thanks!

Apparently if your resolution is too low or the workspace isn't allowing "space" for a full effects window to show up, the whole thing shows up blank and grey. How obnoxious! By closing my properties tab on the right (after many other fixes including making those pngs) it showed up.

Can't make text the right size

HI , I'm having a frustrating problem. I'm trying to get the text announcing the levels in my game to be the right size when it's online. It works fine offline, but when I put the swf up online the text looks like it's about 2.4 instead of 24 like I am trying to get it. Here's the code in the start game method:
public function startGame():void
canFire = true;
paperHeadlineIsAdded = false;
NumOfDrops = 0;
pastLevelTwenty = false;
gameIsOver = false;
speedVar = 90;
textRemoved = true;
origNumOfPlanes = 25;
waitForNewLife = false;
newLevel = false;
bombDropSpeed = 3;
NumOfPlanes = origNumOfPlanes;
airplanes = [];
bullets = [];
bombs = [];
// init score
lives = 3;
shotsLeft = 10;
shotsHit = 0;
showGameScore();
levelNum = 1;
iconArray = [];
// create gun
aagun = new AAGun();
aagun.gotoAndStop(57);
addChild(aagun);
// create object arrays
airplanes = new Array();
bullets = new Array();
bombs = new Array();
//text formatting
textFormat = new TextFormat();
textFormat.font=font.fontName;
textFormat.font = "Guadalupe";
textFormat.size = 24;
textFormat.align = "center";
textFormat.color = 0xffffff;
trace(getChildAt(numChildren-1).name);
livesIcons();
// listen for keyboard
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyDownFunction);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP,keyUpFunction);
//setup your fireTimer and attach a listener to it.
fireTimer = new Timer(300, 1);
fireTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, fireTimerHandler, false, 0, true);
// look for collisions
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onEnterFrame);
var siren:Sound = new Siren();
chanD = siren.play(0,800);
// start planes flying
setNextPlane();
and here's the rest of the code that puts the text up in this method:
public function wait():void {
if(levelNum>19){
thisIsTheEnd();
pastLevelTwenty = true;
gameIsOver = true;
newLevel = false;
if(newLevel == true){
if(aagun.aagunGone == false){
textFormat = new TextFormat();
textFormat.font=font.fontName;
textFormat.font = "Guadalupe";
textFormat.size = 24;
textFormat.align = "center";
textFormat.color = 0xffffff;
levelNum ++;
speedVar+= 25;
newLevelText = new TextField();
newLevelText.width = 550;
newLevelText.y = 110;
newLevelText.selectable = false;
newLevelText.defaultTextFormat = textFormat;
newLevelText.embedFonts=true
newLevelText.defaultTextFormat.size = 24;
newLevelText.text = "Level "+ String(levelNum);
waitForNewLife = true;
addChild(newLevelText);
textRemoved = false;
if (gameIsOver != true){
waitTimer = new Timer(5000,1);
waitTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, startNewLife);
waitTimer.start();
anyone have an idea why this is happening? Please let me know. Thank you.

I can't upload the html file with the swf because the place I have my game uploaded only asks for an swf file. Do you know why it doesn't work? when I load the html in my browser it works but not just the swf online.

How can I make text substitutions learn the correct capitalization of an acronym?

I love the text substitutions function in the Mac OS, and the auto grammar and spelling corrections are usually really useful, but there is one particular instance that is driving me insane. In my job, I end up using the acronym "TAs" (for "teaching assistants") all the time. Mac constantly autocorrects this to "Tas." I have tried adding "tas" to text substitutions in the settings and telling it to substitute "TAs," but it just autocorrects my substitution to "Tas." I have tried telling the OS to learn the spelling "TAs," but that hasn't worked either. I don't want to turn off capitalization correction altogether because I usually find it useful. Is there a way to fix this one word? The only workaround I have found is that it doesn't correct me when I pluralize with an apostrophe (as in "TA's"), but I am really not a fan of that.
I am running Mavericks 10.9.5, if that helps.

Hi Laura_mac !
Does it depend on the application?
Using Yosemite I added
tas to Keyboard ====> Text
so that TAs becomes TAs
It worked via Safari 8.03
via Pages and Numbers (3.5.2)
It did not work in BBEdit
nor Firefox
nor Word
If you do a lot of text substitution I found the following app quite helpful. You can customize to a great degree.

In the new Lion, can't make text larger in Message List

Just started using Lion. In Mail, I can enlarge the font in the message for viewing, but not in the message list on the left hand side of the creen. What am I missing?
Next question-- Mail isn't allowing me to add an acount even though that account is definitely on the other coomputer I have (iMac using Snow Leopard). Again, am I missing something?
Okay, one moe question, the icons in the sidebar in Snow Leopard are great. Anyway of getting those in Lion-- for instance-- the heart icon for the Favorites folder.

How can i make text in a field stay within the field wrap

I need text to wrap in the text field box, please tell me how?

Assuming this is a web form...
You do that by adding a field that is "Text Field (Multiline)" and sizing it appropriately. It's possible to set both a minimum and a maximum limit the number of characters in a field. If your field is sized too small, text will still be able to be entered, and will export just fine, but just might not display fully when viewing on the web or when printing the web page.
Hope that helps,
Brian
