Entire index entry is not hyperlinked

Hello,
I am using InDesign CS5 and am familiar with indexing. However, when I produce the exported PDF only the page number is the active hyperlink to the index entry. How can I get the index to treat the entire index entry (ie Name . . . . . . pg 2) to be hyperlinked?

Index Entries in 9i

Hi,
In older versions of designer 1.3.2 Index entries are
available for foreign keys.
We have migrated the repository from 1.3.2 to 9i and Index entries are not available in the design editor for foreign keys.When we generate a table in 9i we get error messages because of missing index entries.
What about Primary keys?Does designer generate Index entries for Primary keys also??
Kindly Help.

To clarify, your index entries were in the database but NOT defined in Des 1.3.2 model? Because if they were in the model, then I'd look back at your intermediate migration definitions to make sure the indexes were still defined properly in there.
In Des 2.1/6.0/6i/9i/10g, Indexes are a separate sub-element (SACs) for a Table Definition. They don't have to be associated with a key structure. And in newer database versions, a PK / UK has an implicit index constructed for it in the database, so Designer doesn't bother showing you the Index in the model. Just the PK or UK itself (again, these are also separate SACs).
And it's not clear where you're getting the error. During the generate? Or during the instantiation into a database? Neither situation is a common fault.

I have a manual that contains headings and index entries that contain less than and greater than characters, < and >. The Publish to Responsive HTML5 function escapes these correctly in the main body of the text but does not work correctly in either the Contents or the Index of the generated HTML. In the Contents the words are completely missing and in the index entries the '\' characters that are required in the markers remain in the entry but the leading less than symbol and the first character of the word is deleted; hence what should appear as <dataseries> appears as \ataseries\>. I believe this is a FMv12 bug. Has anyone else experienced this? Is the FM team aware and working on a fix. Any suggestions for a workaround?

The Index issue is more complicated since in order to get the < and > into the index requires the entry itself to be escaped. So, in order to index '<x2settings>' you have to key '\<x2settings\>'. Looking at the generated index entry in the .js file we see '<key name=\"\\2settings\\>\">. This is a bit of a mess and produces an index entry of '\2settings\>'. This ought to be '<key name=\"&lt;x2settings&gt;\" >'. I have tested this fix and it works - but the worst of it is that the first character of the index entry has been stripped out. Consequently I cannot fix this with a few global changes - and I have a lot of index entries of this type. I'm looking forward to a response to this since I cannot publish this document in its current state.

[CS3] Create sideline notes from index entries

When I import a word-document with marked index entries, the index entries are also imported into InDesign. Now I want to use these entries duplicated as sideline (margin) notes into a second column/textframe next to the original text referred to the marked index words. Is there a way to this?

Can you explain in more detail?

Some Indexed entries not appearing in master.chm

Here's the situation:
We have about 100 individual projects and they are all merged
into a Master to bring them together. About half of the projects
have a TOC. The TOCs for all projects are appearing great. All
indexed entries come over when merging into the Master except for
one single project. That project's TOC comes over fine, but NONE of
the indexed entries are available in the index of master.chm. All
index entries for that project, however, appear correctly when
viewing that project's individual chm file.
I have tried deleting the merged project from the Master and
re-merging. I have tried recompiling the troublesome project and
then re-merging. Same problem.
Help.

Hi there,
As a follow up to the previous post I disabled iCloud and opted to keep all items on my iPad thinking that I'd rather have too much data than too litt.e I then did an iTunes sync which replicated a lot of data in Outlook, but the renamed calendar still isn't being synced over or the entries that have been added to it. I put in a test entry on the iPad and it's going into the renamed calendar1 but not showing up in Outlook.
Any further tips. I've tried installing OpenSSL as advised on another Apple support KB article but this has no effect.
Thanks for any advice on this.
All the best for now and take care.

Index Preview Panel does not include all my index entries

I've put all my chapters in a book and created an Index. All is well until I try to edit the Index. InDesigns materials tell me to go to my Index Preview Panel to make edits, which works fine. But the Panel does not contain all my index entries. I've tried updating the previews and regenerating the Index numerous times, but I still cannot get an up-to-date preview panel. Any ideas???

Problems searching for not existing index entries

Hi,
we are creating a Java Fat Client Application with JDK 1.5.0_07 and compliance level 1.4. The GUI bases on the SWT libraries.
The application ships with JavaHelp 2.0_02 (jh.jar).
The helpset is dynamically merged.
JavaHelp has problems e.g. during search for index entries, which does not exist. The JavaHelp Window does not react anymore. The rest of the application still works fine.
Has someone encountered similar problems, found the reason and propably a solution?
Thanks, Joerg.

Hi Mikkel
1) number attributes are only exposed in the complete search sample (search.jsp), not the others (usearch.jsp, tsearch.jsp, gsearch.jsp)
2) Your understanding of the binary encoding is correct, except wk_queryexp package does not handle binary encoding. This is because that package
is meant for 9.0.1 API, which only supports string attributes.
In 9.0.2 and beyond, the encoding of number, date attributes is done in the query API layer in Java, using
the Equals, GreaterThan, LessThan, Between query operators. Please take a look at search.jsp
and see how they are used. The compile() method of the query operators will encode the values for you.
Keep in mind that you should code your application to use the query API, as the encoding algorithm
may change in the future.

Index entries missing in .chm but are present in the printed version

This is strange.
I have a number of index entries as follows:
troubleshooting/file problems
troubleshooting/login problems
troubleshooting/printer problems
These appear in the .docx (Word) version, which is what I've been using for the review cycle. Today, though, I had the .chm open and I noticed that the entire group of troubleshooting\ entries aren't in the .chm!
I recompiled the HTML Help, just in case I was looking at an old version and no, they're not there.
I searched for them in the Index tab, thinking maybe they were somehow out of order, but they're truly not there.
Any idea what could be causing this? I'm using RoboHelp 9.

I don't know how to apply conditional build tags against an index, so I didn't do that -- at least not deliberately
I looked at the HTML, the Advanced tab in Topic properties, and the TOC page properties. I don't see anything there that looks like a Condition setting. I looked at the HTML externally (that is, went to Windows Explorer and double-clicked the file and then looked at the HTML source). Couldn't see anything. I launched the .chm file and then looked at the HTML for that topic. Still couldn't see anything.
I opened the .hhk file and I can see the entries for troubleshooting, I believe. Here is what I see:
<item name="troubleshooting">
        <item name="file problems">
            <section name="Release Information" link="Release_Information.htm">

Missing Index Entries in Printed Documentation

Hello All,
Using RoboHelp X5 to generate a Web Help File and
corresponding Printed Documentation. Within the Web Help file there
are index extries which are linked to a topic. Within the topic are
bookmarks which also link to index entires.
When I generate the Printed Documentation, only index entries
linked to a topic appear, those entries linked to a bookmark do not
appear.
How do I generate the Printed Documentation and have all the
index entries (topic and bookmark linked) appear?
Thanks

This is to confirm that if you use bookmarks (the little
white flag icons) in your topics, then drag them under an Index
keyword in the Index designer, they definitely WILL NOT show up in
the printed docs. To solve the problem, I created separate topics
so there wouldn't be a need to bookmark (which I did because the
user would have had to scroll to view the whole page), then linked
the keywords to those topics.

Is there a place to see the "Marker Text" for the entire index and make changes?

I know how to make individual changes in "marker text" for the Index.
Is there a place to see the "Marker Text" for the entire index and make changes there?
I am indexing a book that uses quotes from scripture.
As an example, I want to change listings from
Colossians 3:10-11
to
Colossians 3 verses 10-11
I would appreciate any help.
If this is not the correct venue for this question, please disregard.

You didn't mention which version of FM that you're using. In FM9, this can now be done in the Marker Pod.
There are third-party utilities that also let you see all marker content.
In the freebie category is MarkerWorker from Cudspan at: http://www.cudspan.net/plugins/
In the paid plug-in category are:
IXgen: http://www.fsatools.com/ixmid.html
MarkerTools : http://www.leximation.com/tools/info/markertools.php
emDex: http://www.emdex.ca/
Indexing add-ons:
IndexTools (helpful for formatting and other Index layout tricks): http://www.siliconprairiesoftware.com/Products.html
In the DIY category, you can create a List of Markers for the Index (with hypertext enabled), open the Marker window (Special > Marker...) and then use ctrl+alt click on the entry to make a hypertext link to the location and see it in the marker window for editing. [Note: you can also do the same thing from the Index itself]

Find source page for index entries

In ID CS4, I could Alt-Ctrl-click on the page number of an entry in my index and it would take me to the source page. That doesn't seem to work in CS5. Is there a keystroke that will do it, so I can check to be sure my index entries are correct?

FrameMaker is not on its way out!!! Development on FrameMaker "next" is ongoing.
I devised this trick to add a 'continued' line to a table -- it works well if you were planning to have the header repeated anyway:
Insert 2 rows at the top of your table.
Copy the entire header (originally row #1, now the 3rd row) and put it into the 2nd row.
Join the entire length of the first row into one single cell.
Type "Table 124. (continued)" into this cell.
Adjust top/bottom lines where necessary. Take care if you have different widths for the very top/inner line thicknesses -- you'll have to check if the correct widths get applied at the top, and in the repeating header.
Select the top 2 rows and define them as Header Rows
In Table setup, choose to Skip First Occurrence of the header.
It takes some time to set it up, but the advantage is it's totally autonomous -- the table won't care whether it fits onto a single page, or runs to a next one; the header will always be correct.
It's one of those things I might write a script for, some day ...
This is what I may have remembered reading, when I referred to seeing something like my posted solution.
For some reason I can't edit my posting now, so I'll add my corrections here: it's not necessary to insert an anchored frame to hold the cross-reference, as I described. The anchored frame was a leftover from my first experimental solution. Also, it's not necessary to enter the table title in the paragraph that precedes the table, as the source of the cross-reference; with Jongware's method of using the first non-header row that appears at the start of the table when the header row(s) skip the first instance of the table, you can point the cross-reference to that first non-header row.
I'll also add a note to Jongware's method: when using a cross-reference to an auto-numbered table-title paragraph style, rather than entering static text such as "Table 124." as in 4. above, the cross-reference updates if the number changes.

PDF contains links for $nopage index entries

I'm using FM6 under Windows XP, and I just discovered that PDF generated by FM
includes live links for index entries generated from markers using the $nopage
directive. As a result, an index entry like "see also Frobnication" links to
the page containing the index marker, which is nonsensical. This has turned up
in three books we're converting to PDFs for electronic consumption, and there
are hundreds of affected index entries. Does anybody know of a way to get FM to
not generate links in the PDF for $nopage entries?
Thanks,
Scott

Hypertext activity can be suppressed for the entire index (not recommended), but not for specific markers. <$nopage> suppresses the page number, but the link is created nevertheless.<br /><br />It it possible to use a "workaround" where the addition of a character format to the See/See Also index markers will serve to limit the link active area (making it very small, even though technically it is still present). <br /><br />For example, the Index marker text would be:<br /><$nopage><min> </>Third, <Emphasis>see Second[Third]<br /><br /><min> is a character format (should be present in the Index file), such as: all As Is, Size: 2 pt, Family: Arial Narrow, Stretch: 10%.<br />Index term has to be repeated in square brackets, as otherwise the term would be sorted incorrectly because of the tiny space added in front of it.<br /><br />A better approach is to have links pointing to the "See" terms within the index.<br />See http://www.sundorne.com/FrameMaker/IndexRef/indexref.htm for information about a plug-in that helps fix the links created by See/See Also references, so that they point to the appropriate terms within the index (through cross-references) rather than to the source markers.<br /><br />Shlomo Perets<br /><br />MicroType, http://www.microtype.com * ToolbarPlus Express for FrameMaker<br />FrameMaker/Acrobat training & consulting * FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers/Assistants

ITunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found itunes will install but wont run!!!!!!!!

I updated itunes and it wont work. i unistalled all apple apps, about 5 to 10 times. i get this message on my HP 530,32 bit windows vista. At the top in the error window it says
*iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found* Then under that in the error box it says:
*The procedure entry point*
*QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll.*
What do i DO PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!

I found the qtcf.dll file in the sys32 moved it to the desktop tried iTunes and still same error message as above.
Okay ... sometimes there can be multiple copies of them lurking about on a PC.
Try heading into Computer, and typing QTCF.dll in your Search field. When Vista tells you it can't find the file, click "advanced" and tick the "Search hidden, non-indexed and system files (might be slow)" and then start another search.
This search *will indeed be slow.* Wait until the green progress bar up at the top of the screen has completely vanished, otherwise you might accidentally stop the search too soon.
What copies of QTCF.dll do you find, and where are their file locations? (The default location on a 32-bit Vista PC is in C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QTCF.dll)

Gwdca.exe - Entry Point Not Found Error With Hot Patch 4

We've upgraded a few of our GroupWise 8 clients from 8.0.3 Hot Patch 3 to 8.0.3 Hot Patch 4 to address the critical security vulnerability in HP3. We receive the following error message (attached) every few minutes which seems to be related to the archving process.
Receiving gwdca.exe - entry point not found
The procedure entry point DAGetLinkedObjectParent could not be located in the dnyamic link library sccda.dll
When the error appears, it seems to correlate to the "Updating Archive Quickfinder Indexes" appearing in the bottom left corner of the GW client. Backreving the client to 8.0.3 HP 3 resolves the problem. We have tried running GW Check on the mailbox as well as forcing a reindex of the archive without any success. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks

I tried googling but I haven't found any solutions, so I thought I'd ask for help here.

No, there is no timeline like that. Vista support for any product will vary from team to team depending on a huge variety of factors.
For us, we're not even sure why it no longers works on Vista. As I said above, it could be a recent change we made or a change in one of the libraries we use with the desktop application. The solution is nowhere near as simple as posting the older version of the desktop application. Edge Inspect is a system of multiple pieces that all have to work together and be able to communicate with each other. Even if we posted the older version of the desktop piece, it's likely that you'd find Edge Inspect features that didn't work because the other pieces no longer spoke to it correctly. It would get progressively worse with each release until it stopped working entirely. And we simply don't have the resources to support a Vista version of the desktop application and keep it up to date with all the other pieces of the application.
We never devoted any of our limited dev or testing resources to testing on Vista and can't start doing that now. In our original FAQ we noted that it was not supported but that we didn't know of any issues with Edge Inspect running on Vista. That's now changed. I've updated the FAQ, and we'll be modifying the installer to reflect the new situation.
I'm sorry, but the final word from engineering and product management is in, Edge Inspect does not support Vista.
