How to make guides on a master page more effective

I have a grid of guides on a master page. They are visible in my working pages, but they don't have that "magnetic" quality that I expect - things don't snap to them. I have layers in the master page and layers in my working pages. Can someone help me sort out what I need to do to make the guides more effective? CS4 on a Mac.

Guide Options "Snap to zone" 1px?
Also, 1 pixel isn't much, maybe you're not seeing the snap. Try 5 pixels

How to set unequal columns using master pages in InDesign CS3?

I don't have CS3 anymore but I don't think this has substantially changed in the last few versions of InDesign.
Choose View > Grids & Guides > uncheck Lock Column Guides. Then drag the column guides to the position you want.

How to make Dynamically Shortened Text With "Show More"

Hi there! i want to know how to make dynamically shortened text with show more or read more in my website using HTML 5 pages or ASP.NET ?
example like these paragraphs
Lorem Ipsum är en utfyllnadstext från tryck- och förlagsindustrin. Lorem ipsum har varit standard ända sedan 1500-talet, när en okänd boksättare tog att antal bokstäver och blandade dem för att göra ett provexemplar av en bok. Lorem ipsum har inte bara överlevt fem århundraden, utan även övergången till elektronisk typografi utan större förändringar. Det blev allmänt känt på 1960-talet i samband med lanseringen av Letraset-ark med avsnitt av Lorem Ipsum, och senare med mjukvaror som Aldus PageMaker.
Det är ett välkänt faktum att läsare distraheras av läsbar text på en sida när man skall studera layouten. Poängen med Lorem Ipsum är att det ger ett normalt ordflöde, till skillnad från "Text här, Text här", och ger intryck av att vara läsbar text. Många publiseringprogram och webbutvecklare använder Lorem Ipsum som test-text, och en sökning efter "Lorem Ipsum" avslöjar många webbsidor under uteckling. Olika versioner har dykt upp under åren, ibland av olyckshändelse, ibland med flit (mer eller mindre humoristiska).
I motsättning till vad många tror, är inte Lorem Ipsum slumvisa ord. Det har sina rötter i ett stycke klassiskt litteratur på latin från 45 år före år 0, och är alltså över 2000 år gammalt. Richard McClintock, en professor i latin på Hampden-Sydney College i Virginia, översatte ett av de mer ovanliga orden, consectetur, från ett stycke Lorem Ipsum och fann dess ursprung genom att studera användningen av dessa ord i klassisk litteratur. Lorem Ipsum kommer från styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 av "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (Ytterligheterna av ont och gott) av Cicero, skriven 45 före år 0. Boken är en avhandling i teorier om etik, och var väldigt populär under renäsanssen. Den inledande meningen i Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem Ipsum dolor sit amet...", kommer från stycke 1.10.32.
Den ursprungliga Lorem Ipsum-texten från 1500-talet är återgiven nedan för de intresserade. Styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 från "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" av Cicero hittar du också i deras originala form, åtföljda av de engelska översättningarna av H. Rackham från 1914.

Moved to the main Dreamweaver support forum.
There are several ways you could approach this. Here's one you might try:
Give the first paragraph an ID, such as "first", and wrap the paragraphs you want to hide in a <div> with another ID, such as "more". Then add the following block of JavaScript just before the closing </body> tag of the page:
<script>
var first = document.getElementById('first'),
     more = document.getElementById('more'),
     trigger = document.createElement('span');
trigger.id = 'trigger';
trigger.innerHTML = 'Show less';
first.appendChild(trigger);
function toggleDiv() {
var state = more.className,
       text = trigger.innerHTML;
more.className = (state == 'open') ? 'closed' : 'open';
trigger.innerHTML = (text == 'Show more') ? 'Show less' : 'Show more';
toggleDiv();
if (trigger.addEventListener) {
    trigger.addEventListener('click', toggleDiv, false);
} else if (trigger.attachEvent) {
trigger.attachEvent('onclick', toggleDiv);
} else {
trigger.onclick = toggleDiv;
</script>
This gets references to the "first" paragraph and the "more" <div>. It also creates a <span> with the ID "trigger" that's appended to the "first" paragraph. The rest of the script defines a function called toggleDiv(), which toggles the "more" <div> open and closed, and changes the text in the "trigger" <span>.
You also need to create the following style rules for the various elements:
<style>
#trigger {
    text-decoration: underline;
    color: blue;
    cursor: pointer;
#more {
    transition: ease-out .7s;
    overflow: hidden;
#more p:first-child {
    margin-top: 0;
#more.closed {
    height: 0;
    -webkit-transform: translateY(-600px);
    transform: translateY(-600px);
#more.open {
    -webkit-transform: translateY(0);
    transform: translateY(0);
    max-height: 600px;
#more + p {
    margin-top: 0;
</style>
This solution hides the text and creates the "trigger" <span> only if JavaScript is enabled in the browser. It should work in all browsers, including Internet Explorer 8 and earlier.

Hi. I have a 2008 macbook pro 15.4 inch. Not abused but the hinge is stiff and the lid/ screen is starting to de-laminate at the bottom edge. Any ideas on how to make the hinge work a little more freely and how to re-seal the screen to the lid?

When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

How to make form a single long page; remove page breaks?

Hi. I am pretty new to liveCycle but really like it so far! I think these forums are great too. I did a few forums searches and couldn't find a specific answer to this question, so I began this discussion. Please forgive my ignorance if this is has been discussed before!
I am trying to make a form that isn't intended to be printed. I would like to make it a single long page instead of having page breaks in it. I have experimented with custom page sizes and way able to make the pages longer, but there is a limit to how long liveCycle allows me to make the pages... like 27" or something. I'd like to have no page breaks at all.
I am not very familliar with XML, but do have some HTML experience, so I could copy/paste some code to the XML sheet if need be-- provided I was told where to put it.
I attached a bit of the form I would like to turn into a single page to this discussion.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much!

In teh hierarchy view - click on the Master Page/ Page1. Now on the object palette on the Master Page Tab you can choose a Paper Type. If you scroll to the bottom of the list you can choose a Custom size. The width and height dimensions are now available to you. The UI in designer limits you to 59 in. If you need more than that there is a way to get bigger but you have to do it in the native XML format. Let me know if you need more than that. Here is a modified sample.

How can you get get two master pages to repeat in a document with one of them having numbering.

How can you get two master pages in Indesign to repeat when one of them has a numbering section and the back side is a common back. For example, Master A has numbering 001-500 and Master B is the common back for all 500 pages.

My guess is you either want to use a numbered list for the numbering, rather than a page number marker, or you want to make two files and print a single page file with the static text 500 times, then flip the stack and print the 500 page file.
What are you trying to do?

How do I create an underlying master page for my master pages (without messing them up)?

I created a Muse site long ago, and wanted to fix my SEO easily overall by better analytics among other things.
Perhaps I am doing this the wrong way but I was thinking I could create a master page that I could just drop the html I needed into, and thus not fuss too much with my other pages. The problem is I already have master pages that my site is based on (before you could do this), and it would be much easier to have those master pages stem from one source (a Master master page?).
Everytime I try to do this it changes my current master and final pages. Anyway I can create and invisible master so this doesn't happen?
What should I do instead?
THANK YOU.
William

Thanks,
Your intructions were my plan untill I realized that in doing so, it changed the backgrounds etc of my current masterpages. I realize that this is a lack of planning due to my very rusty design principles, and something I wouldn't have done in my day job if the features had been in place. (so thank you for the new features!)
While I realize I could probably fix this by recreating the site with a uniform underlying Primary Master Page feeding into my Secondary Master Pages, I was trying to create a master page that in effect wouldn't change a thing in the other subservient masterpages (thus allowing me freedom to create groups of pages with common analytics or any other types of code).
Simply when I take your suggestion, things change... can I do this without making things change?
Not sure if this makes sense. I am trying to avoid coding or a overhaul b/c of time constraints.

Loop in smartform - how to make values valid in all pages

Hi All.
I have a smartforms with several pages (9). I must print these 9 pages once for each line in the internal table ITAB. When I put a loop in the first page, the data under that loop is printed correctly, but every text node outside the loop always prints the last line of ITAB.
Do any of you know how to make the data in the loop valid throughout the other pages?
any help will be welcome.
thanks,
Hermes.

I got it. The main window must be the first one in the first page. The loop must be inside the main window, and bellow the loop there must be a page-break command.

How to make contents of DIV on page I'm leaving fade out?

I am trying to figure out how to make the contents of a DIV on the page I'm clicking away from fade out. I know how to make the next page load with a fade in. So I'm half way there (I guess). Wix has a lot of designs that use this effect. Here's a link to an example:
http://www.wix.com/website-template/view/html/633?originUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wix.com&numbe r-of-page=1&position-in-page=1
This is the code that I use to make a DIV load with a fade in:
I add this CSS code under the DIV that I want to apply the fade in effect to:
     animation: fadein 2s;
    -moz-animation: fadein 2s; /* Firefox */
    -webkit-animation: fadein 2s; /* Safari and Chrome */
    -o-animation: fadein 2s; /* Opera */
And I add this extra code to the CSS styles sheet:
@keyframes fadein {
    from {
        opacity:0;
    to {
        opacity:1;
@-moz-keyframes fadein { /* Firefox */
    from {
        opacity:0;
    to {
        opacity:1;
@-webkit-keyframes fadein { /* Safari and Chrome */
    from {
        opacity:0;
    to {
        opacity:1;
@-o-keyframes fadein { /* Opera */
    from {
        opacity:0;
    to {
        opacity: 1;

Success!!! Thank you! Although I did have to change one more thing. See bold text below.
One more question. What if I wanted to apply this effect to two ID's instead of one? Would it be as simple as adding a comma and then the ID in quotes like this?.... $(#container", "#footer")
$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#container").css("display", "none");
    $("#container").fadeIn(2000);
    $("a.transition").click(function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
        linkLocation = this.href;
        $("#container").fadeOut(1000, redirectPage);
    function redirectPage() {
        window.location = linkLocation;

How to remove infopath ribbon using Master Page?

Hi All,

class="s4-pr s4-ribbonrowhidetitle" style="display:none">". But how to perform in original master page? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to remove InfoPath ribbon using Master Page.
using F12 to find the <div id=”RibbonWrapper”> section:
Navigate to :C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\ FormServer.aspx. Add the following CSS into <head runat="server"></head>section:<style type="text/css">
#RibbonWrapper
display: none !important;

How to make an iview in a page programmatorically (in)visible

Hi All,

I do not want to remove the iview and then add the iview again,
Thanks to help me out on this one,
Nicolas

Hi,
Thanks for your answer, but I already found this on SDN.
But I think it does not fit my needs. (hiding or unhiding it is not depending on roles or language or any other parameter)
This is the scenario I want to do.
I have made webdynpro banner with a message.
At certain moments in time this banner should appear iin the portal.
Because the team that decides if the banner should be visible or not, has no portal knowledge. So I want it to make easy for them
I want to program another webdynpro, where they can decide to show the banner or not. (and tthey can also give the banner text in).
So I just want to know how to hide programmatorically an iview in page.

How to make "Mail Contents os this page" in safari 7?

Hi everybody,
I need for my daily work to make once or twice a day an upload of an mailing PNG picture. Bevor the upgrade to Maverick Safari 7 I used the safari version 5.1.10 which works great to make "Mail contents of this page" (File Menu > Mail Contents of this file). Now in the Safari 7 version this option is not anymore available and it is change to SHARE "Email this page". This is not the some and it does not match the legal proposing.
I appreciate as answer for a good solution or which steps shoud I do to get this option again.
Thx a lot

Hi Carolyn,
Thanks a lot for your help and sorry for the inconvenience. I follow your instruction but it is still not working.
I tried to use now another Mac which I have here, with Mac system 10.6.8, where I use the safari version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10) and it works perfect.
Here are the screenShots:
The screenshot from the older computer: here you see the option Mail contents of this page.
Using that older Mac we have the perfect result, where you see the legal text + images, which i sent to me in bcc.
The result from my Mac with Maverick and after following the instruction:
You see the full legal text but no the image!
Maybe this is just a minor bug in Safari, to exploring yet and to improve. For the meantime I have to use the older Mac only for this part of the job. Not A PERFECT DAY (lou reed, RIP) but not the end of the world!
Thanks for you help and I´m looking forward to get news on this issue from you.

If its not doable in master page i left with no choice to add it in page layout.
But I dont find it in Snippets within Page Layouts or master page...
Is there any way?
Prasad

Hi Prasad,
A very similar conversation was recently discussed here:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/ed858354-fa66-42fa-8afa-2352ada015be/add-app-client-app-part-in-master-page?forum=appsforsharepoint
Although not advisable to add webparts directly to masterpages but there are options using delegates to do so.

How do I keep border on Master Page on top?

I have a page border and page numbers on my master page that I need to stay on top of all overlapping items. However, I have several rotated images where the corner overlaps the border. I've tried to send them to the back and bringing the border to front but nothing is working. Any advice?

In InDesign master objects are always behind live page objects on the same layer, so you essentially have two stacking hierarchies to deal with -- multiple layers and the order on the individual layers.
