How is InDesign Creating ID Attributes in Epubs?

I'm trying to make an epub using the current CC... I can't get these tables to display correct so I was going to try and fix them in the CSS, but I can't figure out how InDesign is creating the ID attributes. I just can't seem to find anything on this.
I have several text boxes linked to each other and I need to figure out how InDesign is assigning id's (example _idContainer005). I took a screen shot of how its setup in inDesign now and what it looks like after I export it in to an epub...I'm having lots of issues! The tables disappear because I can't just do the traditional create a table from text file I have to make the tables then put text boxes over the table and flow the text because you can't flow text cell to cell.
<div id="_idContainer005" class="lot">
<p class="Paragraph-Style-l">A</p>
</div>
<div id="_idContainer006" class="Basic-Text-Frame">
<p class="Paragraph-Style-n">XXXXXX <span class="name-amf _idGenCharOverride-2">[AMF-CAF-D2F-DDF-NHF]</span></p>
</div>
<div class="_idGenObjectLayout-1">
<div id="_idContainer007" class="Basic-Graphics-Frame _idGenObjectStyleOverride-2">
</div>
</div>
<div id="_idContainer008" class="Basic-Text-Frame">
<p class="Paragraph-Style-c">Birth Date: 12-15-2004	Bull +XXXXX;Tattoo: 4037</p>
</div>
<div id="_idContainer009" class="Basic-Text-Frame">

I'm moving this to the InDesign EPUB forum.

How to create tagging attributes

Hello,
this are two questions in one...
1. how do I create "empty" attributes like this: <tt><Element Attribute></tt>?
2. How do I trigger the creation of the attribute by a value from DB? SQL> WITH my_data AS
2         (SELECT 'test1' AS element_name
3               , 0 AS tag_attrib
4            FROM DUAL
5          UNION ALL
6          SELECT 'test2' AS element_name

1. how do I create "empty" attributes like this: <tt><Element Attribute></tt>?That's not valid.
Did you mean :
<Elem Attr=""> ?
2. How do I trigger the creation of the attribute by a value from DB? By moving the CASE statement into XMLAttributes.
XMLAttributes doesn't generate attribute for NULL values :
SQL> WITH my_data(element_name, tag_attrib) AS (
2    SELECT 'test1', 0 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
3    SELECT 'test2', 1 FROM DUAL

How to create index attributes in CAF Entity Service

When one creates an entity service with external persistency (local persistency on the persistency tab is unchecked) you have to create at least one "key" attribute. However, how do you create "index" attributes to improve performance. Currently, if you add custom key you must select "key" checkbox in attribute wizard when creating an attribute and this key field must be unique. This is not what I am looking for. I'd like to create a few custom keys that the contents allow duplicate.

Hi Tom,
This is a very valuable question. Yes, you can add an index for specific fields to the generated database table. You can do in the NWDS, navigate to the dictionnary view and open the corresponding database table. Now you can add an index and assign database field(s) to this index.
However: you must be aware that, if the entity is changed (i.e. new parameters are added), the database table is re-generated and the indices are lost.

Jan

How do I create a Table of Contents in InDesign CS6 for print that easily converts to epub?

How do I create a Table of Contents in InDesign CS6 for a print book that easily converts to epub?
Can anyone point me to a link for a step-by-step (not a video) on setting up all the elements of a print book properly (pages, table of contents and index) so they will convert and reflow perfectly from print to epub in InDesign CS6. This is not about building an ebook from ground up, but taking 50 backlisted print books (converted from old versions of Quark to InDesign) that now need to be converted to epub formats.
OR could someone point me to the link in the Adobe InDesign CS6 support that explains how to create a Table of Contents for a print book (5.5" x 8.5", 288 pages), one that will convert when the file is converted to ePub (for MAC OSX)?
Just downloaded the 706 page inDesign CS6 reference manual from Adobe <http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/indesign_reference.pdf> but there's not even a search feature on the pdf file.
Up until this week, we have only done print books, creating the TOC the old fashioned way, as a fixed page, comprised of two columns: page numbers and chapters/subject. The files I have created are taken by our printer and printed beautifully.
However, when I convert the same book to epub in CS6, the character and paragraph styles converted beautifully - but everything else is all over the place! The table of contents is on different pages, the columns split apart. That goes for the page contents as well - everything is all over the place. when it's converted to a pdf -- total perfection. Never any problems converting with perfection to pdf format and reading those on the various readers.
(Thank you so much in advance for any help).

<http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/indesign_reference.pdf> Adobe Digital Reader does have a search feature for reading pdfs. Found the TOC instructions on page 176 of 706 pages.

How can I create Hyperlinks with a Fixed-Ratio EPUB?

I am using InDesign 2014's fixed ratio epub exporter. It looks great but all my hyperlinks are lost and I can't find any resources on how to maintain them or to recreate them in a reader program, if possible. Any help much appreciated?

Are the hyperlinks you want to make supposed to go to specific pages of the document, or to a url.
If it's to go to pages of the document, then click the Create Bookmarks when creating the TOC, it's in the bottom left, you may need to Show Options in the TOC dialog box.
If it's for a URL, or to link to a different page other than what the TOC points to, then you can
New Hyperlink Destination
Choose URL/Page
Insert a unique name
Insert the url/page no.
Then say ok
Go to Hyperlink Options
Type: URL
Name: Choose the unique name you've created
URL: it should show up as what you've put in the Name, if not just type it in
similar for page no.
Remember to inlcude bookmarks and hyperlinks when creating the PDF too.

How do i create an ePub file for ibook on Windows platform?

Adobe Indesign can do this. I'm sure a simple google search would find various Windows apps.
You cannot submit books directly to Apple using a Windows machine, you would have to use an Aggregator like Smashwords. So you might want to see what format the Aggregator prefers.

How do I create a fixed layout landscape-only epub3 in Indesign?

Hi
I have been trying to create a fixed layout epub3 from indesign without results.
What I've done is to create a book with 4 pages in layout format 1034px/768px, each of them with text and pictures. I gave the text a style with the paragraph and exported in epub3 format.
When I upload this to the ipad it works as a epub2, the layout is not fixed.
When I open the files and read the code it actually is like a epub2, there is no fixed layout meta tag, there is no page dimension in each page, in the css the body size is auto and so on.
I also opened the files and added without any result the following in the .opf file.
<meta property="rendition:layout">pre-paginated</meta> (this should create the fixed layout option)
<meta property="rendition:orientation">landscape</meta> (this should create a landscape only view)
<meta property="rendition:spread">none</meta> (this should create a one page at a time view)
Is there a way of achieving what I want or it simply is a functionality not yet introduced?
Thanks for any advice

InDesign CS6 or earlier is not designed for creating fixed layout EPUB files. Essentially it would have to be done in a very painful, very manual process. Anne-Marie Concepcion describes the process in this Lynda.com video:
Creating a Fixed-Layout EPUB

How to create an attribute dimension in Essbase Studio?

I cannot figure out how to create an attribute dimension using Essbase Studio. The online help states that I need to "Find the Attribute settings grouping in the center" of the member properties dialog box. I suspect that I'm having a problem figuring this out because I don't have the attribute dimension properly defined in the relational data source or in the mini-schema. I've tried creating a table with no key relationship to the other tables and with no logical joins defined, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?

so in the 11.1.1 version you would click on the member name in the hierarchy you added to the Essbase model and in the center pane of the general tab should be the attributes settings section.
If I had a dimension called stores wth two groupings unser it region and store_type, I would click on store_type and add the attribute info

Hello Ashok,
[here|https://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/current/com/sap/mdm/examples/CreateField.html] is the Java API of the needed command.
There is also an example of how to create a field. You can use the class by replacing the strings for the server, repository, table, etc. to your needs.
If you want to create more than one field, simply use a loop, like the for-loop, while-loop, etc.
Hope this helps.
Best regards

How to create a Attribute "Type standard table OF" to a OSS NOTE

Dear experts,
I need to add new attributes in a standard class as per one OSS note. I took access key to add new attributes. I have a question.
class name: CL_J_1BEFD
Attribute: MT_GROUP_C350
Level: Instance
Visibility: Private
Type STANDARD TABLE OF mty_result
How do i add the instance attribute because i do not want to give the typing and associated type, instead i have to declare data: MT_GROUP_C350 type standard table of mty_result in class builder private section code.
if you look at the pushbutton between Associated type and Description, for all instance attributes there's a green color lining below the arrow. I want my attribute also to be exactly same.
Though i have access key, in private section the display<->Change button is disabled.
Please suggest me how do i add code in private section of a standard class. i have required access key to change the class.
Thanks,
Alysson

Hi Friend...
Thanks, but the question is...
When I went to transaction se24 or se80, I chose the class CL_J_1BEFD and second I swap to "CHANGE MODE".. after that the pushbutton is blocked... I can create the Attribute mt_group_c800 in the Class (using TYPE or LIKE option), but i can't change the code in the private session even using the assistant to modify it.
When I acess the Button "Detail View" the option "Direct Type Entry" is just unavaliable too, no matter what i do!
I coudn't find a way to create the Attibute like the note Describes (SAPNOTE NUMBER 1575772 - in the attachment of the note)
The changes are contained in the attachment
Follows the instructions retrieved from the file:
Add the following Attributes on the Class CL_J_1BEFD Private section
data:
mt_group_c800 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mty_result .
data:
mt_group_c850 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mty_result .
data:
mt_group_c860 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mty_result .
data:
mt_group_c890 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mty_result .
How can i make a way to creat this attributes using "TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF " Option?

How do I create a named destination in InDesign?

I also had this question and, seeing no response to your post, submitted my own at:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5856231
However, I was told by Adobe that a solution is not available (below). Have you discovered anything to the contrary? I was not able to get the suggested solution by Jongware to work for me.
Having just completed a phone call with Gaurev Sethi of Adobe escalated technical support in which I shared my screen to explain and demonstrate the desire to link from an external URL to a specific location within a PDF file that has been exported from InDesign, it was determined that the desired functionality is not supported in InDesign and has been identified as a limitation of the software.
In researching alternate documentation software that supports PDF export, I discovered that Madcap Software supports this functionality in its Flare product:
http://webhelp.madcapsoftware.com/flare9/Default.htm#Nav_Links/Named_Destinations/Creating _Named_Destinations.htm
Note that linking via URL to a bookmarked location within a PDF is not supported:

How to create an attribute

Hi,
I can create xml elements in designer, e.g. John Brinkman's example
// Add a question datagroup with the right question type
// then add a question subform to bind against it.
                                                  var vNewQ = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataGroup", "Question");
                                                  vNewType = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataValue", "QuestionType");
                                                  vNewType.value = vQDef.QuestionType.value;
                                                  vNewQ.nodes.append(vNewType);
                                                  vSection.dataNode.nodes.append(vNewQ);
However, I would like to create an attribute (I'm working with an existing predefined schema) but I can't seem to find a simple way, e.g.
I would like something like
<Question QuestionType=""/>
How can I do this? I tried loading the XML in like
                                                  var vNewType          =
                                                                                                      <Question QuestionType="">
                                                                                                      </Question>;
                                                  xfa.data.mForm.loadXML(vNewType.toString(), false, false);
but unless I give it a child node, it bombs out. It will work with
var vNewType =
    <Question QuestionType="">
       <dummyRow/>
    </Question>;
Any help would be worth 5 gold medals.

Hi,
You need to set the contains property of the dataValue to 'metaData" to turn it into an attribute, but you can only do this once the dataValue has a parent, so your code should look like;
var vNewQ = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataGroup", "Question");
vNewType = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataValue", "QuestionType");
vNewType.value = vQDef.QuestionType.value;
vNewQ.nodes.append(vNewType);
vNewType.contains = "metaData";
vSection.dataNode.nodes.append(vNewQ);

How to create an Attribute set

Hi Everyone,
i am learning OAF....right now going through PPR.I was referring the sample tutorials where i came across attribute sets in the PPR Example, which i believe were created as per requirement.So not able to proceed further till i get some clue abt how to create an attribute set as per my requirement.Tried to refer dev guide but not able to grab the concept
Can anyone tell me where exactly do i need attribute sets(i am only aware that it is used to provide the look n feel to the browser) and how to go abt creating one.
Thanks
Amrita

Thanks for replying
i'd like u to see the PartialPageExample in sampleLibrary project..There is a function being called in the CO from SampleBrowserAM which is
public void handleSupplierSelectionEvent()
OADBTransaction txn = getOADBTransaction();
String detailTableText = null;
// Find the selected radio button so we can mark the current row.
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("SuppliersVO1");
// Get the first filtered row.
Row masterRow = vo.getFirstFilteredRow ("SelectFlag", "Y");
if (masterRow != null)
vo.setCurrentRow(masterRow);
String supplierName = (String)masterRow.getAttribute("Name");
MessageToken[] tokens = { new MessageToken("SUPPLIER_NAME", supplierName)};
detailTableText =

else
// If there are no selected rows, display a default generic message.
detailTableText =
txn.getMessage("AK", "FWK_TBX_SUPPLIER_SITES", null);
// Now set the text message on the DETAIL_TABLE_TEXT attribute in

Row appPropsRow = appPropsVo.getCurrentRow();
if (appPropsRow != null)
appPropsRow.setAttribute("DetailTableText", detailTableText);
} // end handleSupplierSelectionEvent()
i am not able to understand the text in bold in the code above.how do i refer to it, where is it stored, what is it doing , and it is maybe specific to the supplier table coz i cannot use it for my custom table...can u pls explain
