Create sequential numbering for chapters in Pages

Can anyone tell me how to create sequential numbering for my 'scenes' or 'chapters' when writing scripts in Pages.
I need to have them set up, so if for example, I have...
Scene 01
Scene 02
Scene 03
and down through scenes to say...
Scene 52
But I write another new scene in between scene 02 and 03... I need all the other scne numbers to change automatically below the new scene, instead of me having to manually go through and change every single scene number...
How do I do this?

Thanks... this is a reasonable compromise, which I have already done.
The problem with script writing is that the Scenes are generally headed like this...
Scene 22: Int - Dinning room - Night
Then they might have a subtitle, which is a short descriptive of the scene, such as...
Scene 22: Int - Dinning room - Night
(Xmas Turkey dilemma)
So, it could work as you suggest, but it is by far a perfect formula, I am dumbfounded as to why 'Pages' doesn't have this simple function, when just about every other word processing program does. Final Draft is an industry standard for script writing, but I actually prefer Pages, I have a lot more creative control with formatting, except for this one vital function... darn!
Thanks for you suggestion Peter,
Cheers

How do you create sequential numbered labels ?

How can I create sequentially numbered labels with pages?

Would be useful to know if you are asking about labels whose contents is the same except the number or if the main part of the label is also variable.
In second case what's the source of the datas ?

Logic to create multiple numbered copies of a page?

I have compiled a report that I need to create unique numbered instances of a page based on a number of units for different vendors, and I'm trying to automate the process. I use a parameter field to tell the report to determine the number of units that necessitate an additional copy of the report. For instance, if I enter a parameter of 10 and there are 50 units, I need to get 5 copies of the report; if there are 175 units, I need 18, and so on.
I'm trying to use a do while loop where I increment the page count lower each time a page is printed, but I can't figure out exactly how to pull it off..... Here's what I've got:
Dim c
c = {@total_reports}
Do While c > 0
    if c = 1 then Exit Do
    c = c - 1
Loop
formula = c
Total reports is the total number of pages I need for an individual report. There may be hundreds of individual reports for which I need to go through this duplication process.....
Of course, the formula as written only counts down to 1 and prints "1" into a single instance of a report, but that is where I'm hung up - how can I get it to start with number 18 and count down to number 1, and to then move on to the next unique report?
A million thanks in advance for any help!

This returns a 1 for all instances in the test report I'm using.
I didn't use the Roundup methodology because I need each instance of the report to return the value of units associated with the individual page/instance.
For example, if there are 238 units of a product, and the parameter entry denotes a split of 25, then I need it to create 9 reports, each noting that it covers 25 units (9*25=225) and one report noting that it covers 13 units (238-225=13). The mathematical end of things is pretty tidy, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to get it to print the "25" nine times and "13" once..... I need it to print to the page prior to going into the loop each time:
Dim c
c = {@total_reports}
Do While c > 0
    if c = 1 then Exit Do
    c = c - 1
----- PRINT VALUE TO PAGE LOGIC HERE -----
Loop
formula = c
I rarely have to use the basic scripting, so I'm just not sure how to get it to do what I want....

Alphanumeric sequential numbering for customers in oracle financials

Hi ,
Any one please tell me how to setup Alphanumeric sequential numbering for customers in oracle receivables.
Thanks
Guru Prasad

Hi
It is either manual or automatic, that is defined system options window on AR.
If it is automatic, than you can define the start point, sequence name is HZ_ACCOUNT_NUM_S, Responsibility Application Developer,
Application-Database-Sequence
I didn't try if you can put a non-numeric template.
For manual assignment, it is 30 characters total.
Hope this helps.

Automatic Sequential Numbering for Archival Labels

I am in charge of creating archival labels for my company and routinely have to edit a label template number by number by number...
Example: The template has 24 labels, in the top left starting with 7846 and by the end the list reaching 7869. Therefore, to edit it, I have to change 24 numbers by hand every single time.
I didn't create this template, but rather was hired after someone had already created the document.
Since this document has to be updated so often, I figured there has to be a more efficient method to setup the fields where I could enter "7846" on the first label, and the other labels automatically number up sequentially.
Any help or hints in this matter would be greatly appreciated. I'm very new to Pages (been using it for a week) so be kind .

Hi lightmeup_again,
Pages does allow formulas in Tables. For example, type 7846 in cell A2, then in B2, type a formula =A2+1
(type the formula, press enter, then double click [maybe twice] in B2 to see this view)
B2 contains the result of A2+1 ( 7847). Fill Right to other cells.
The question becomes more involved when you need to start a new row. What is the layout of your table? How many rows and columns?
Here is a small table with formulas
Each cell in Column A must refer back to the value in the last (rightmost) cell of the previous row
Please see my next post. Camera icon is playing up.

CRM 2013 On-Premise How to implement sequential numbering for records?

Hi All,
I don't know if someone could advise me on the following.
I have two entities, Transport Routes and Stops with a 1:N relationship. I want to auto-number the Stops records sequentially (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) but want to start at 1 within each Transport Route. How should go about it? Is it possible to achieve this
with JS, or would that be a bit clumsy and would you recommend a plugin instead?
I have an auto-numbering solution (AdvancedCRMAutoNumber from Xbitz) but that will not restart the counter position to 1 for each Transport Route - at least to me knowledge it cannot.
Would appreciate any help!
Thanks, Viktor

hi Victor,
I think you can write plugin by following below steps.
-->Create one field in the Transport route entity to store the sequential number.
-->As soon creating the Transport stop record get the sequential from the Transport route and create the sequential number for the transport stop.
-->Update the Transport route record by incriminating the sequential number field.
So every Transport route record will have sequential number which we can start with 1 as based on the stops we can increment the number.

How to create another session for a help page ?

Hello
I am trying to create help system for an application, which would be similar to apex's own help system. The main thing is that the help page/application/procedure would run independently of the calling application, and therefore it needs to create another session, I suppose ? How do you implement that ? I have also tried to find description of the package wwv_flow_help, but haven't found anywhere. Is it useful here ?
Thanks for any comments

If the link is from a page in your application then that's exactly what you want to do using javasScript to open a new window but keeping the same session ID in the request. In this way, when the new request is received by the Application Express engine, it will have the session cookie that goes with the specified session ID.

Sequential numbering for pdf form

I am trying to find out how to have sequential numbering of a pdf form that will be accessible on a shared drive. I need a new number assigned each time it is opened. Please help!

Hi,
There is not a way for the person filling out the form to see such a number the instant they fill out the form. If the form e-mails to the respondent with a copy of their responses however, the e-mail includes text indicating which response number their submission has counted up to. (If you also receive e-mail receipts of each submission, you would see the same info.)
So, for instance, you and the respondent would see, at the top of the e-mail, something like:
"The form <your form name here> has a new submission.
Total Responses: 238"
I hope that helps,
Brian

R12 - API to Create Serial Numbers for Ordered Item in Receipt

Hello All,
I got a requirement to create PO Receipt using PL/SQL code. For that i have created PL/SQL code to insert data in following Interface tables,
a) rcv_headers_interface
b) rcv_transactions_interface
After inserting data in Interface table executed Concurrent Program "Receiving Transaction Processor" to process data from Interface table to Base Table. This process is working perfectly fine for "Non-Catalog" requests. But if i try to process any PO having Inventory Item whose Serial Control is set to "At Receipt" then i got following error at Interface table,
"Fail to validate serials".
To resolve this issue i need to create and process serial number for Ordered Item selected to Receive. Can anyone guide me regarding how can I generate Serial Numbers using API for PO Receipts.
Regards,
Priyanka

Hi,
Just populate mtl_serial_numbers_temp table correctly (by specifying transaction_temp_id = RTI.interface_transaction_id)
and serial number range in fm_serial_number - to_serial_number respectively.
You may entermultiple MSNT records with same transaction_temp_id.
You may need to populate PRODUCT_TRANSACTION_ID = RTI.interface_transaction_id and PRODUCT_CODE = 'RCV'.
Oracle will create all the serial numbers for you when the records get processed.
Thanks,
Hrishi

Creating a movie for a web page and making it continuously loop

Hi all! I have a client who wants me to create a slide show with 7 images at a specific size for his web page. He wants it to continuously loop. I don't know much about this. Where can I go to learn how? I can make the movie... but I'm not sure what to export it as... and what the settings should be to enable me to make it the correct size and so that it loops. Thank you!
I'm using iMovie '08 on my iMac.
PS: When I looked up online for help, all I found was how to make a movie loop on one's computer. Not on web pages.

.gif files are supported in all browsers and do not need any special "player". They are very limited in their support of colors and most Web pages rarely use them anymore.
QuickTime .mov files can be set to "loop" (as explained above). Much more colors (millions).
iMovie is the wrong tool to make your file (and it doesn't create .swf format).
QuickTime Player Pro is the tool you need. It can import an "image sequence", set the frame rate (up to ten seconds per frame) and save the file in the .mov container.

New Page numbers for Sections in Pages 5.2

Hi, I can't figure out to how to start numbering pages from 1 in a new section using Pages 5.2.
I've tried to add new sections via both the Inspector and Insert > Add Section Break, but when I attempt to insert page numbers in the header of a new section, it's still not starting at 1.

See what I mean? I've successfully created the new section, but it still wants number the first page of a section with 2.

How to make tiny numbers for footnotes in pages?

I cant figure out how to make the number small in pages on my Ipad 2. The app is up to date and aswell is the software, iOS 5.1 but I can't figure out how to make the number tiny and move up to the left hand corn of the letter. Example, the number should like like the '2' in h2o but I don't know how, please help.

Hi vnessar
When you place the insertion point where you want your footnote referenced (tap, hold, release) and select Insert > Footnote, it automatically places the superscript number for your footnote there and takes you to the bottom of the page in a Footnote field with the reference number already filled in.
If you add another, (tap, hold, release - which brings up the "Select | Select All | Paste | Insert" menu) it will become Footnote 2 and so on.
See Insert footnotes or endnotes
In step 2. Tap >, tap Insert, and then tap Footnote. The triangle is the "more button". Just ignore that and tap Insert and Footnote.
Does that work for you?
