How do I add a "normal" space?

Given a text location, I'd like to use the Doc object's addtext method to a "normal" space. I say normal space because I can't actually figure out what type of space FrameMaker is using by default and I haven't been able to find any documentation about it either. My understanding is that a space is a special character, which means I have to pass the addtext method a hexadecimal representation of the character.
So I looked for the characer set PDF for framemaker 10. I could only find one for FrameMaker 9, which is available here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FrameMaker/9.0/CharacterSets/character_sets.pdf. According to that PDF, the following spaces have a hexidecimal representation.
\x10 (numeric space)
\x11 (nonbreaking space)
\x12 (thin space)
\x13 (en space)
\x14 (em space)
I have tried them all. This is an example:
vDoc.AddText(vTextLoc,'\x13')
While the method successfully adds a space, the space is not the normal spacing that occurs when I press the space bar. That is the spacing I want the AddText method to add in. Is there another space with a hex representation I need to pass in?

Yes, that was the first thing I tried. No space gets added all. Are you seeing something different? Can you actually get this to work?
To expland slightly, I am trying to fix the problem here:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4359960#4359960#4359960
To address the above problem, I tried to add that space and nothing got added but if I used one of the hex codes then a space was added.

  • How can I add an extra space whenever I hit Return?

    I'd like to add a space or half space whenever I hit Return. I'm working on a manuscript and would like to format the final version with this style implementation.
    Thanks for any help!

    Hi Edwin,
    When you say "add a space or half space whenever I hit return," are you talking about the same result as pressing return, then press ing the space bar, or (more likely), do you mean a vertical space?
    If you're speaking of a vertical space, most curent word processing applications, including Pages will let you specify the "space after paragraph." Here's an example, First with "space after paragraph" set at zero:
    Then the same text with "space after paragraph set at 5 points. (The type is Times 12 point):
    May I suggest some reading?
    Check your local library or bookstore for a copy of Robin Williams's book, The Mac is not a Typewriter. Originally written in 1990, with a second edition in 2003, it's garnered praise from hundreds of thousands of Mac users (really) who've bought and read it since then.

  • How can I add a normal-sized button to my frame???

    hi,
    my GUI has two JScrollPane-s together in a JSplitPane and below I'd like to add a single small button.
    I put this button into a new JPanel, but it is displayed veeery BIG !
    I tried to use .setPreferredSize(new Dimension(int, int)), but it didn't help a lot.
    this is a piece of my code:
    public class MyTree extends JPanel implements TreeSelectionListener, ActionListener {
              this.setLayout(new GridLayout(2,0));
             buttonUpdateM_File = new JButton("Update the .m file");
             buttonUpdateM_File.addActionListener(this);
             JPanel actionPane = new JPanel(new GridLayout(0,1));
             actionPane.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(1,2));
             actionPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(5,10));
             actionPane.add(buttonUpdateM_File);
              //create the scroll pane and put the tree into it
              JScrollPane treeView = new JScrollPane(tree);
              //create the viewing scroll pane
              JScrollPane maskViewPane = new JScrollPane();
              //add the two scroll panes to a split pane
              JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT);
              splitPane.setLeftComponent(treeView);
              splitPane.setRightComponent(maskViewPane);
              Dimension minimumSize = new Dimension(420, 360);
              treeView.setMinimumSize(minimumSize);
              maskViewPane.setMinimumSize(minimumSize);
              splitPane.setDividerLocation(210);
            splitPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600, 510));
            //Add the split pane to this panel
            add(splitPane);
            add(actionPane);
         }Thank you!

    thanks,
    as far as I understood there is no way to shrink the
    new JPanel with this GridLayout.Yes, Grid just makes a set of fixed sized boxes. If you want the JPanel to be the same size as the JButton, what do you want the panel for?

  • How do I add a space to the toolbar in Firefox 29.0? I can grab a space from empty areas and move it around, but where do I find a "space" icon to ADD a space?

    It has been useful in past versions of Firefox to be able to add (a) space(s) between icons on the toolbar in order to create groups of icons and/or separate icons by class or function. In Firefox 29.0, I discovered how to "grab" (click and drag) a space from open areas on the toolbar and move it to another part of the toolbar. But how can I add spaces to the toolbar? In past versions, there used to be a space icon in the customize menu set that could be dragged to the toolbar for that purpose.

    You can get around this problem by installing the "Classic Theme Restorer Add-on" available at: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-make-new-firefox-look-like-old-firefox
    While returning the squared-off look to your tabs, instead of the newer, rounded version - it also gives returns the option to add spaces; variable size spaces, and separators to your tool-bars.

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • How to add a normal attachment in my apple mail?

    Apple mail is so slow when I want to add attachment to my message. I think the reason is that when I add eps file or other files, apple mail does not simply add it, but integrating it into my context. But I don't need it to do that. And because the process is so slow(my eps file is kind of large...), it wastes a great amount of my time doing it. So far I'm satisfied with other functionalities of this software so I really don't want to give it up easily.
    So, any one know if there is a simple way to add a normal attachment into apple mail message? Like what we usually do in any other email client? Thanks.

    Try turning them into a zip file before attaching. From Finder Help:
    Compress and uncompress files and folders
    Compressed files take up less disk space than uncompressed files, so compressing is useful for making backup copies of your data or for sending information over the Internet.
    To compress a file or folder, Control-click it or tap it using two fingers, and then choose Compress from the shortcut menu.If you compress a single item, the compressed file has the name of the original item with the .zip extension. If you compress multiple items at once, the compressed file is called Archive.zip.
    To uncompress (expand) an item, double-click the .zip file.

    I would actually question whether or not more disks increase the risk of a disk failure. One disk can break as likely as one of two of more disks.
    Simple stats.  Buying 2 lottery tickets instead of one, gives you 2 chances to win the lottery prize. Not 1. Even though the odds of winning per ticket remains unchanged.
    2 disks buy you 2 tickets in The-Drive-Failure lottery.
    Back in the 90's, BT (British Telecom) had a 80+ node OPS cluster build with Pyramid MPP hardware. They had a dedicated store of scsi disks for replacing failed disks - as there were disk failure fairly often due to the number of disks. (a Pryamid MPP chassis looked like a Xmas tree with all the scsi drive LEDs, and BT had several)
    In my experience - one should rather expect a drive failure sooner, than later. And have some kind of contingency plan in place to recover from the failure.
    The use of symbolic links instead of striping the filesystem protects from the complete loss of the enchilada if a volume member fails, but it does not reduce the risk of loosing data.
    I would rather buy a single ticket for the drive failure lottery for a root drive, than 2 tickets in this case. And using symbolic links to "offload" non-critical files to the 2nd drive means that its lottery ticket prize is not a non-bootable server due to a toasted root drive.

  • How do I add spaces in mission control in mountain lion?

    I use an external monitor on the right side of my mbp, the external monitor (when in use) is my main screen. I want my (auto retracting) dock on the right side of my right screen (the external one). The top right corner is my hot corner for mission control.
    With this setup, when I move my mouse to the right top corner I'll enter mission control, but somehow the "add a new space pop-up button" will not show up. I haven't tried this setup in Lion so I do not know if this is a bug for ML. I really like my dock on the right side of the screen, left is no option and I'm sick of having it at the bottom, but I do want to be able to add spaces, any thoughts how to do this?

    multiple ways,
    go to mission control and:
    hold option, a half of a desktop with a plus will appear, click it.
    drag an application's window next to the spaces there are already.
    put an app in fullsreen mode.
    move mouse over the top left side of the screen, and the desktop with the plus sign will appear to add a new space.

  • How do I add space when repling to an email so it's not so cramped?

    I just updated to the latest version of Thunderbird and now when I reply to an email, there is not enough space between my response and the former message. How do I add more space so I can see what I am typing more clearly? Right now it is cramped.
    Thank you

    I understand I can do it manually, but the old program automatically had space when replying so I'm looking to reconfigure the composition to accommodate this preference.
    Thank you.

  • How can I automatically add 1 en-space after 2,000 bold lead-ins?

    I have a long list (2000-3000 paragraphs) and each paragraph begins with a bold word. I want to change the normal space character following the bold lead-in to an en-space or maybe some other character without affecting all the other spaces in the document. Is there a way to do this automatically? I don't know how to do scripting or use scripts. Sometimes I've figured out ways to set up  Find / Replace to do what I need, maybe with a few different steps, but I haven't been able to figure out a way to accomplish this. I run into similar problems frequently and would love to find ways to do this automatically.

    ^ is start of Paragraph. () defines a match subgroup, and \w+ means one or more "word characters" so ^(\w+) means find a word at the start of the paragraph. \s is any white space, including returns, so we're finding the first word and any whitespace that follows it.
    The change is $1 which stnads for the found text in the first set or parentheses and ~> which is an en space, so we're replacing the first word and space with the first word and an en space.
    You can google for a script called WhatTheGREP by jongware, too, that will translate any GREP string for you.
