How to insert cross references

I am continuing to learn how to use Pages after having done most of my word processing with MS Word. I am trying to add a caption to a graphic (i.e., Figure 1) and inserting in the text a cross reference to the graphic. Is there any way to do this?

  • [AS] How to make cross reference at insertion point

    Hi,
    I have a book ("indb") including several documents with several "anchors"
    (german translation: "Textanker") where cross references from different documents are linked to.
    What I already got is to reference all anchors and collect them in a list.
    Now I would like to make a new cross reference at the insertion point
    in a text frame of the active document - can't get it to run :-(
    Is anybody out there who can post a AS-sample doing this?
    Thanks in advance!
    Here is the reference to an already existing anchor:
    {hyperlink text destination id 44155 of document "kapitel 2.indd" of application "Adobe InDesign CS4"}
    The code I tried to make a new cross reference looks like this - but of course doesn't work:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
    tell active document
    make new hyperlink with properties {name:"new hyperlink", destination:hyperlink text destination id 44155 of document "kapitel 2.indd"}
    end tell
    end tell

    Thanks a lot - got it now!
    Maybe it could be helpful for others to look at your answer  
    with the placeholders replaced by "real" strings as it was hard for me
    to figure out the right form:
    tell document 1
    set theDest to make hyperlink text destination with properties {name:"Some name", destination text:<a reference to the relevant text>}
    this line for example looks like this =>
    set theDest to make hyperlink text destination with properties {name:"Some name", destination text:insertion point 902 of story id 44083 of document "kapitel 3.indd" of application "Adobe InDesign CS4"}
    set theSource to make cross reference source with properties {name:"Some name",source text:< reference to the relevant text>}
    this line for example looks like this =>
    set theSource to make cross reference source with properties {name:"Some name", source text:cursorPosition, applied format:cross reference format id 44305 of document "kapitel 1.indd" of application "Adobe InDesign CS4"}
    where "cursorPosition" was defined before by
    set cursorPosition to object reference of selection
    (the cross reference source needs the applied format reference too)
    make hyperlink with properties {source:theSource, destination:theDest, visible:true, highlight:invert, width:thick, border color:dark green, border style:dashed, name:"Whatever" }
    this line for example looks like this =>
    make hyperlink with properties {source:theSource, destination:hyperlink text destination id 44184 of document "kapitel 3.indd" of application "Adobe InDesign CS4", border color:black, highlight:none, border style:solid, hidden:false, visible:true, width:thin}
    end tell

  • ODI : how to raise cross reference error before loading into Essbase?

    Hi John .. if you read my post, I want to say that you impress me! really, thank for your blog.
    Today, my problem is :
    - I received a bad quality data file from ERP extract
    - I have cross reference table (Source ==> Target)
    - >> How to raise the error before loading into Essbase !
    My Idea is the following, (first of all, I'm not sure if it is a good one, and also I meet issue to do it in ODI !)
    - Step 1 : make JOIN between data.txt and cross-reference Table ==> Create a table DATA_STEP1 in the ODISTAGING schema (the columns of DATA_STEP1 are the addition of columns of data.txt those of cross-references Tables (... there is more than 20 columns in my case)
    - Step 2 : Control if there is no NULL value in the Target Column (NULL means that the data.txt file contains value that are not defined in my cross reference Table) by using Filter ( Filter = Target_Account IS NULL or Target_Entity IS NULL or ...)
    The result of this interface is send to reject.txt file - if reject.txt file is not empty then a mail is sent to the administrator
    - Step 3 : make the opposite : Filter NOT (Target_Account IS NULL or Target_Entity IS NULL ... ) ==> the result is sent in DATA_STEP3 Table
    - Step 4 : run properly the mapping : source : DATA_STEP3 (the clean and verified data !) with cross reference Tables and send data into Essbase - NORMALY, there is not rejected record !
    My main problem is : what is the right IKM to send data into the DATA_STEP1, or DATA_STEP3 Table, which are Oracle Table in my ODISTAGING Schema ! I thy with IKM Oracle Incremental Update but I get error, and actually I don't need an update (which is time consumming), I just need an INSERT !
    I'm just lookiing for an 'IKM SQL to Oracle" ....
    regards
    xavier

    Thanks john : very speed !
    I understood better now which IKM is useful.
    I found other information about the error followup with ODI : http://blogs.oracle.com/dataintegration/2009/10/did_you_know_that_odi_generate.html
    and I decided to activate Integrity Constorl in ODI :
    I load :
    - data.txt in ODITEMP.T_DATA
    - transco_account.csv in ODITEMP.T_TRANSCO_ACCOUNT
    - transco_entity.csv in ODITEMP.T_TRANSCO_ENTITY
    - and so on ...
    - Moreover I create integrity constraints between T_DATA and T_TRANSCO_ACCOUNT and T_TRANSCO_ENTITY ... so I expected that ODI will raise for me in E$_DATA (the error table) the bad records !
    However I have one issue when loading data.txt into T_DATA because I have no ID or Primary Key ... I read in a training book that I could use a SEQUENCE ... I try but unsuccessful ... :-(
    Is there another simple way to create a Primary Key automaticaly (T_DATA is in an oracle Schema of course) ?thanks in advance

  • How do I cross-reference photo folders?

    My photos are organized in folders according to the week they were taken, and I want to keep it that way. But if I want to pull up just the photos that have my friend Brian in them, how can I do that?
    First off iPhoto is NOT an option. I have used several versions of the iLife suite starting with Tiger, then moving on to Leopard and (currently) Snow Leopard. And the whole iLife suite is riddled with bugs to the point where I do not want to touch them as they are completely unreliable. DVD player crashes and freezes randomly, and falsely claims DVDs are damaged when they are brand new. Now I just use VLC, and my DVD movies play perfectly every time. Something I could almost never get DVD Player to do. I have tried using iWeb, but after a few "undos" and some editing, my links no longer work, and files get dropped for no reason.
    I have tried tagging photos in iPhoto, and using one Smart Folder for each tagged category. It all works great for a while, but before long, newly tagged photos stop being added into the Smart Folders, and it defeats the whole purpose.
    Not to mention that iPhoto creates a huge file, and wastes time identifying faces, which is an undesirable feature I can't seem to turn off.
    I am guessing the whole problem with the iLife suit is that the library coding gets super easily corrupted if you make changes (and I am not even touching any of the files outside of iPhoto, iWeb, etc.)
    I can't even make aliases to the folders and organize them that way for viewing in screensaver, because Snow Leopard's screen saver can't open the photos in an alias folder.
    I'm NOT going to duplicate all my folders with different names and arrange them by category. That isn't organizing, that is duplicating, and completely wasting tons of file space.
    Is there any program available I can get to replace iPhoto so I can cross-reference my photos into multiple categories? And is there a screen saver program I can use to make my own screen savers that can pull files from aliases, or some other referencing system?
    Is there a patch I can get so that the default screensaver will open photos from an alias in Snow Leopard, the way it always used to? Why is it so difficult to deal with what should be simple, basic programs and file organization?
    I love my MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard, and I love the professional programs I run on it such as Adobe and Maya, but why is the first party software complete garbage?
    I know I don't sound like it at the moment, but I'm normally a polite person, I am just really frustrated right now. Just tired of banging my head trying to find ways to get around and outsmart the default programs on this OS, which has been futile, I might add.

    I am so terribly glad you haven't come across the bugs I have because let me tell you they are terribly frustrating. I only wish I had made them up. There is nothing I like better than ranting without any justification whatsoever.
    Okay enough of that. I really have come across these problems, and even though I may not have been too polite I don't need to be accused of falsification and stupidity thankyouverymuch.
    If you had read my post you would have understood that choosing a folder is one of the many things I have tried to do that didn't work. The only folders that work have the actual files in them. And since I am trying to organize my photos into groups it does not make sense to duplicate folders of photos simply to  make them work. That takes up too much space.
    Instead what I am trying to do is to not duplicate anything, but find a way to have my photos organized into groups.
    Further if iLife has not presented any problems for you, you must be a very casual user indeed. These programs do not provide the depth of use that advanced users like myself require. You can go back to selling shoddy products for Apple now.
    Is it possible for people to respond with HELP instead of criticism?

  • How to create cross references in pages?

    Hello,
    I need to create cross references in pages, for example create a title with the name of a chart and the create a reference on the document. If I create more content and the number of the chart changes the references need to be up to date. This is supported by word... don't know on pages.
    Thanks!

    I suspect your tag is wrong, but in Pages '09 you just Insert a Bookmark.
    Not possible however in Pages 5.

  • How to find cross references

    Hi,
    I try to delete an old project in ODI, but I get the following error message:
    ObjectVariable : CTL_MAX_SESSION is referenced by: Txt CrossRef : 31612011, Txt CrossRef : 31636011, Txt CrossRef : 31643011, Txt CrossRef : 31645011, Txt CrossRef : 31649011, Txt CrossRef : 31651011, Txt CrossRef : 32852011, Txt CrossRef : 32876011, Txt CrossRef : 32883011, Txt CrossRef : 32885011, Txt CrossRef : 32889011, Txt CrossRef : 32891011
    Cannot remove
    For me it looks like that am accidentially using the ODI variable CTL_MAX_SESSION of this project in other ODI projects.
    But I don't know where and the CrossRefs in the error message are not very helpful...
    Does anybody know how to find the corresponding objects to such cross references in error messages?
    Thanks in advance!
    Cheers,
    Helmut

    Did you try to expand "Used in" beneath the variable name?
    If it's empty, you'll have to dig in the work repository tables. Start with SNP_TXT_CROSSR, SNP_STEP.

  • How do I cross reference to text (as in a reference citation)

    I am using Frame 7.0. I want to create a cross reference to text (not a heading). For example, I have a citation such as (Smith, 1980) and I want to link that to the following:
    H. Smith, 1980 "Have a good day" Martin Press, pgs. 46
    I only want Smith, 1980 to appear as the link, not the entire description.
    Thanks.

    Another option is storing the custom text version in a paragraph autonumber that is entirely hidden, and use a cross-reference format that retrieves that autonumber only. The custom "autonumber" will be paragraph override (or otherwise you will have to define a unique paragraph tag for each source citation).

  • Cross Reference an Object??

    How do I cross reference an object using Indesign CS4?
    I've got a PDF that I've dropped into a frame, which I applied an Object Style.  Now I need to create a cross references in the document, that point to the PDF (a chart).  I've got to do this with several PDF's.
    When I go to create a cross reference, I can only apply it a Paragraph Style or a Text Anchor, I don't get an Object Style to choose from.
    I could put some text in behind the chart, and arrage the chart to the front, but i'd rather create a cross reference to the Object itself.
    What do i do?

    Cross-references only point to text - either a text anchor or a paragraph - not to objects.
    If your placed PDF is in an anchored frame, you can point the cross-reference to the paragraph in which the frame is anchored.
    If your placed PDF is not in an anchored frame, you can do what you suggest above, or you have these other options:
    * place the PDF into a text frame
    * create a text frame and group it with the PDF; point the cross-reference to the paragraph in the text frame, or insert a text anchor in the text and point the cross-reference to it.
    * you can paste the grouped PDF and text frame object into a text frame to make it an anchored frame.
    The idea of a cross-reference is usually to point to a caption or heading. You can't point to the text in a placed PDF because it's really a graphic. You'll probably want a caption to identify the chart. The caption is the text you cross-reference to. The caption can be in the paragraph that holds the anchor, in a text frame grouped with the graphic, in a paragraph above or below the graphic, or in an anchored frame that's positioned near the graphic.
    If your layout will not reflow, you probably don't need an anchored frame, but if the layout will reflow, you'll want to use the ability of an anchored to move with the text.
    Read about cross-references and anchored frames in Help. If your caption will be numbered, such as "Figure 3," also read about numbered lists and numbering properties of paragraph styles.

  • InDesign Tagged Text for Cross-reference Entries

    I'm transforming XML to InDesign Tagged Text. The XML has index codes. For regular page entry type entries I'm having no problem outputting to the appropriate InDesign Tagged Text markup. However, I cannot figure out how to code cross-reference type entries. The document "Using Adobe InDesign Tagged Text CS5 Tagged Text" is extremely limited in its usefulness as it does not list all possible values for tag type tags, etc. I've tried dozens of tag combos and guesses at values. None have worked. Also, for some reason, even though I can create a "See x" type reference in the InDesign document, when I export to InDesign Tagged Text to look at the code, those tags are not included in the export.
    Does anyone have a more definitive list of possible IDTT index tag values?

    I have been exporting various things to IDTT to see what the result would be, with nothing really helpful as a result. I'll try hyperlinks, but reading of the Adobe guide to InDesign Tagged Text and also just looking at the InDesign scripting object model leads me to believe that there must be specific tags to create index-specific cross-reference tags.

  • Cross-reference notes

    FM 7.2
    I wish to maintain conceptual consistency between two portions of text.
    I'm curious as to the best way to inform the FM user, but not the document reader, of the connection between the two portions of text. I refer to this concept as
    cross-reference notes.
    I think that ideally I could insert a cross reference from one portion of text to the other, a cross reference that is visible only to the FM user but not to the document reader.
    I'm curious as to the best way to insert cross-reference notes.

    If you create PDFs of your documents and you want working links,
    then all cross-refs will be active links, even if they aren't indicated
    visually. So cross-refs may not be ideal in your situation.
    What you seem to be looking for is "text insets", i.e. FM text imported
    by reference. These references or duplicates of text will not show up
    as links in a PDF, but they will be very obvious to the FM user:
    clicking in a text inset will select the entire referenced text, and
    double-clicking it will open the text inset dialog.

  • Cross reference help needed

    Here is the situation:
    I create automatic figure number in my document. That is working fine.
    In my text, when I want to cross reference the figure (i.e. "FIGURE 3-3"), I click in the location in the text and use "Type"... "Interactive"... "Insert cross reference"...
    That all works fine.
    The problem I am having is when I move or copy that page to another document wherr, for example it was "fig 3-3" in the original it is "fig 3-19" in the new (pasted into document). The figure auto numbering updates ok for the new document, but in the body text it remains what it was from the original .. that is, the new auto number will update "fig 3-19", but in the text it remains "fig 3-3". It seem to retain the cross reference to the original, and not "follow" or remain with the new.
    So is there a fix for this. or is there another way to do this?
    Thanks for reading my questions.

    You may have to share your XML (partial data is fine too). You should also share the code for <?for-each-group@column:...?>.
    Most of the time this mismatch happens when there are some empty data fields. In such cases you may have to add a condition using xpath to populate the data, where in if there is an empty tag or no tag, it puts a zero value or space there.

  • Creating and updating cross-references in a book

    Hello everybody,
    I created a book of several files. Now I would like to create and update cross-references from one chapter to another. What do I have to do? (I use Framemaker 8).
    Thank you for your help.
    Bye
    Vreni

    For creating cross-references between chapters, open the chapter documents and insert cross-references as is done for any normal document using menu command "Special->Cross-Reference".
    For updating all cross-references throughout the book, you can use the menu command "Edit->Update Book".

  • InDesign Cross References with DTP's Cross References PRO

    There are already posts all over the forum about how inter-document cross references in InDesign are "fragile" and slow and can cause crashing, which I recently learned the hard way. We tried to live with the slowness and the breaking links, but the show-stopper was that we couldn't export our largest book without InDesign crashing. (The book contains 150+ individual documents.)
    Based on some recommendations, we are now using a trial of DTP's Cross References PRO plug-in for InDesign. I removed all cross references that were created using InDesign's native cross references, and added several new ones using the plug-in. The slowness has gone away and the cross references don't seem to be breaking anymore, but InDesign still crashes when I try to export our book. DTP's support people insist that their plug-in should be able to handle large books, unlike InDesign. (And I've heard very good things about their support.) Is it possible that our files and/or book are corrupted from when we had the native InDesign cross references? Has anyone switched from native InDesign cross references to DTP cross references?

    I don't think it's been determined if you have the latest ID update for your version of ID? BTW, which version are you using?
    Where is the "too many files open" message coming from? Operating System (which?) ID? What's the exact message? A screen shot would help. Back in the days of DOS and early Windows, there were commands to set the number of permitted files open at once. Not sure how to do it in modern OSs. If it's an ID message, perhaps someone's got a suggestion.
    Some folks on the forum like to see crash files so they can try to analyze them. Search Google for terms like "adobe forum indesign pastebin" without quotes to find some of those postings and learn how to send your crash report files there, and look at the names of those who volunteer to analyze the files.
    I was thinking that two book container files that hold the same total number of files in the original single book might lighten the processing load and perhaps avoid a crash. With some work, I think it's possible to get the pagination and other numbering schemes, and x-refs to emulate a single book. I think that this is different from exporting half the files from one book, then the other half. It's not tested, just a thought. One other thought is to remove one file at a time from the book, starting at either the beginning or end, and export, until you find the maximum number of files that succeed consistently. Then try from the other end, to see if the crash happens with the same number of files, or perhaps same number of pages, or even, perhaps, at the same page. Perhaps the number of cross-references in the content is related to the crash. Again, just brainstorming.
    You might explore with DTPTools support whether they'd want to see your crash files, to determine if the problem traces to their plug-in. Also, perhaps they'd like to look at your whole project - if it's permissable with your company or client, to see if DTPTools' techs can reproduce the crash.
    erin.miska wrote:
    We've actually never had the InDesign files open while exporting the book and never had a problem. Just to be sure, I tried this. We actually have too many files to open at one time, but I opened as many as I could. Still crashed.
    Can you help me understand your thought behind the second option? What am I troubleshooting by having cross references that point to a document in another book?

  • Consider cross references for comparison

    Hi All,
    I am using EMFCompare.createDefaultScope(EObject, EObject) for comparing a tree structure. That tree structure contains cross references as the least child node. These cross references are not considered within the scope of matching phase so all the cross references will be considered as differences.
    How to consider cross references for comparison and make them behave in the same way as other EObjects?

    "cross references" don't help define what you are trying to do; but I guess your "two trees" are actually more than two, referencing other trees elsewhere.
    "EMFCompare.createDefaultScope" is deprecated. you should simply be instantiating the DefaultComparisonScope. It takes not only "EObject" instances, but accepts "Notifiers". This means you can and should be using "Resource"s as in your case, or better yet, "ResourceSet"s.
    What you need to do is properly load your resources in separate resourceSets (one for right, one for left, one for the common ancestor if there is one) and use that as the comparison scope.
