How can I set a cross reference to a Picture

Hello,
I have a question regarding the new function: How can I set a cross reference (dont know the exact english name since I use the German version; in German: Querverweis) in Indesign CS4 to a picture? So far, I could only do it with a kind of workaround by putting an invisible text frame above or below the picture and referencing to that one.
Any suggestions?

Or put it inside a text frame as an inline graphic. You've basically figured it out.

  • How can I set up cross fade to automatically trim files ?

    How can I set up cross fade to automatically trim the two files to size when fading between them? Thanks

    Hi, thanks for the reply. What I meant was that in Pro Tools, you can highlight an area between two tracks and crossfade. Then the files are exactly trimmed automatically so there is no excess overlap of the edges of both files. In Logic it seems to leave the overlap, and this can be a problem when you accidently click the wrong place and the underlying file is bought to the front, changing the crossfade area. I wish it to trim the excess so there is no danger of the lower file edges coming forward.

  • How can I get XML cross-references to translate to Structured FrameMaker?

    I've been using Structured FrameMaker from the beginning, and have designed many EDDs, and about 10 years ago I did some translation of SGML into Structured FrameMaker (7.2) which worked well.
    Now, (with FrameMaker 10), I've had to design an EDD to translate XML documents into Structured FrameMaker.
    In my EDD I've a CrossReference element called XRef; this has an attribute of ID, which in turn has a value of IDReference and has Special AttributeConrols of ReadOnly.
    My target elements in the EDD all have an ID attribute with a value of UniqueID.
    My XML document's target xref element has  an attribute of linkend, and in XML this works as I'd expect.
    When I pass the XML file through the EDD/Template, everything works except that I get an ID = no value, which, of course, results in no display of the cross-reference data in the document.
    Oddly, in structured FrameMaker, my element of link, with an attribute of linkend, works as it should, and displays the data.  It may not be important, but the value for linkend is IDReference not UniqueID, and this displays correctly (I changed this attribute's value to Unique ID in my EDD and it made no difference to the XRef value in my document).
    After making all these EDD changes, I've been careful to save the changes, import them to all files in my book and finally update the book.   Everything hangs together - except, of course, that the cross-reference doesn't work.
    I'd sincerely appreciate any help or advice other users might have because I'm quite frankly stumped.

    Russ,
    Sorry about the delay in replying; got sidetracked trying to fix some FrameMaker 10 problems; on occasion, it laughs and crashes if we copy an element in a document and paste it to somewhere illegal.  This doesn't happen all the time, but it might be something someone might do, so it was interesting to know.
    Anyway, back to cross-references.
    In our r/w rules we have:
    "linkend" is fm attribute "ID";
    Can we also have a similar line under the cross-reference element as:
    element "xref"
         is fm cross-reference element "XRef";
         attribute "linkend" is fm property cross-reference id;
         attribute "role" is fm property cross-reference format;
    At the moment the second line is:
    .....attribute ID is fm property cross-reference id;
    I tried adding the attribute "linkend" is fm property cross-reference id; (so that I had both linkend and ID) bit but this made no difference.
    In general use cross-references work, in that it picks up data in one place in the document, e.g. WorldWideWeb, and repeats it elsewhere.   So in our xml file we have a link element with an attribute linkend which, when it's processed (ignoring the handshake code used to link the two - which could be something vague like 12345vvdog), repeats whatever is the target.
    Conversely, for a cross-reference, in xml they use an xref element which also has a linkend attribute (similar mysterious secret handshake behind the scenes) which is deemed to point to a list of references.   This looks like it might be the stumbling block in that it links to an area in the xml document which is used as an internally generated list of references.  Apparently this is only built when the xml book equivelent is finalised, so is not, like the link and linkend coupling described above.
    I've passed this back to the xml people, and they are investigating a different way of preparing their cross-reference to a list of references (I'm now thoroughly confused with all these references - good thing the weekend's just around the corner).
    I appreciate all you help and advice, I'll admit that this is a lot more difficult to understand than straight-forward EDD element creation along with their respective attributes.   Life used to be so much more simple back then!
    In sum, what I thought I was doing was allowing an ID attribute with a value of IDReference in my elements, this was deemed to allow for FrameMaker cross-referencing.   In Structured FrameMaker, on its own, this works just fine; it all fell flat on its face when trying to import xml.   I tried to see whether the xref element's ID attribute could also be a UniqueID, but as just about everyone has said, this is a silly idea.   I was just trying stuff to see whether it might make a difference - you'll not be surprised to see that it didn't!
    For the moment, I have attributes called ID with a value of IDReference, and I understand you're all suggesting to leave it at that.
    If I understand correctly, I could eventually use an IDRef attribute if I wanted a UniqueID value to be used, though I'm not sure what a UniqueID is used or useful for, so will file that for future use.
    Again, thanks for the advice and help.

  • How Can I Avoid Losing Cross-References?

    We have multiple .book files that contain multiple .fm files, many of which contain cross references. Is it possible to work with those files outside of their network location (i.e from a flash drive) without losing the cross references? My employees frequently take work home or work remotely; however, we do not have remote access to our network, so they either e-mail the necessary .fm files or save them to a flash drive to work from. But when they return to the office and "save as" those files, the cross references become unresolved. Is there a way to avoid this?

    > They are taking single .fm files home with them ...
    How are they "taking" them?
    Safe way:
    Save and close all files on the office system.
    Use file browser or command line to copy the files of interest to the transport medium.
    Open the files at home, edit. Do not attempt to fix any broken Xrefs.
    Save in place at home (not to transport medium)
    Copy to transport medium.
    This preserves the original filepath references, which should survive the trip even though unresolved at home.
    Fail ways:
    Save to transport medium at office, and.or
    Save to transport medium at home.
    Doing this re-writes the Xref filepaths relative to the current directory hierarchy. Unless you mimic the office tree at home, doing either of the above will make some or all Xrefs unresolved.
    When you save an FM document to a new filepath, it revises the <XrefSrcFile 'filepath'> data structures to point to the new locations of Xrefs (and other imported content) relative to the new location. If you don't want this to happen (sometimes you do, sometimes you don't), then copy or move the closed document.

  • How can one set a default location for the pictures on the hard drive?

    Since Windows normally places the pictures on a typical drive as "My Pictures" about four or five levels down from the root, any effort to import picture files into Lightroom requires multiple clicks to drill down to the "My Pictures" then (for example) year, month, date, etc.
    Can I define a location as the default starting point to find the pictures?  I don't see how to put that into presets. Or can a key shortcut be created to go straight to c:/users/name/mypictures/2013/April15 etc?
    Steve Board

    dj is right. Any Folder can be a picture folder.
    Create a root level folder and add it to your Pictures Library in Windows.  It will show up with all the scattered pictures from other programs. It can even be a different dirve if you like.  You  can even specify one to be the default save location for pictures in this dialog.
    Navigate to Pictures in your Libraries in Windows Explorer Right Click and select Properties.

  • How can I set page #'s in a text to update automatically?

    The book I'm working on has an introduction that quotes from the main text, and gives page numbers. How can I set these referenced page numbers to update automatically when I change the number of pages in the main text? The introduction and chapters are all seperate files, but they are grouped together in one Indesign book file.
    Thanks!

    Freeway allows you to inject code into the HTML of the page. Upload the movie file to a folder on your server and reference it in the code.
    <script src="http://www.domain.com/Folder-Name/QT-JS.js" language="javascript"> </script>
    <script language="javascript">

    </script>
    If you are going to go this route it would be better to use HTML5 with flash fallback to cover all browsers and devices...

  • How can i set a path for my deployment files in weblogic server 10.3

    Hi
    How can i set the path for my WAR ,JAR files while deploying.i am using the wls10.3 version.
    is there any scripts for this ,please provide me.
    my Application is ADF 11g application.

    By "path", I assume you mean "classpath".
    The simplest way is simply to include the jars you need inside the web application or web module's WEB-INF/lib directory, EJB module's META-INF/lib directory, or EAR lib directory.
    If that's not practical, if you use NodeManager to start your servers, you can go to the "Server Start" tab in the server definition in the WebLogic console and edit the "Classpath" field, which defaults to no value. You can specify a classpath value there. Note that if you specify a value there, it REPLACES the default classpath for the server, it doesn't add to it. If you need to just add to it (a much more likely scenario), if the value references the value "$CLASSPATH" in it, that will reference the original classpath value that the server would have had.
    So, for instance, if you wanted to include the MQ jars in the server classpath, you could set a value like this:
    /usr/java/mq/lib/mq.jar:/usr/java/mq/lib/mqstuff.jar:$CLASSPATH

  • How can I set the Lock Model and data structure ?

    Hi ,
    I just have two questions about JE:
    1) Is there some method for me to set the lock mode level , such as record lock, page lock and database lock in JE?
    2) I learned that there are Btree and Hash,etc , data structures , How can I set the data structure when using JE ?
    Thanks in advance !
    Chris

    I think you're confusing our DB (C-based product) with JE. JE does not have lock mode levels, page locks (it does not have pages), or database locks. JE only has the BTREE method, it does not have the HASH method. For JE, please be sure to reference the JE doc page:

  • How can I set my WebI filters to Null and not Null

    Folks,
    I have created a report in WebI and now I am to set up some filters as Null and some Not Null.
    How can I set my WebI filters to Null and not Null?
    Regards,
    Bashir Awan

    Hi,
    As you said you could do it at the report level and also at the universe level.
    One more way is to create the filters in the universe levele and add them in thequery filter.
    Ex: in the filter you need to write :
    Column1 is null and and column 2 is not null etc.
    Hope this will help.
    If this did't  solve your problem then please explain it in detail.
    Cheers,

  • How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    I learned that the Dock is positioned at the chosen edge of whatever Display is positioned farthest to that side.  E.g. for the Dock to be positioned on the right side of the Cinema Display (instead of the right side of the MacBook), the Cinema Display must be oriented (by dragging) to the right of the MacBook monitor on the "Arrangement" tab of the Displays Preference Panel.
