HT202879 I have been using the linked boxes feature extensively in my layouts, and am most surprised that it has been dropped - WHY?

The linked boxes feature in Pages was one of my pet facilities, and a carryover from my days with MS Office's Publisher.  I am most chargrined to find that when I converted my pages newsletter template to the latest version, the link had vanished.  I first thought it was something I'd done, but now i learn that the feature was removed by the developers.  When can i expect the feature to be restored?

LibreOffice 4.2.2.1:
To Link Text Frames
You can link Writer text frames so that their contents automatically flow from one frame to another.
1. Click the edge of a frame that you want to link. Selection handles appear on the edges of the frame.
2. On the Frame Bar, click the Link Frames icon .
3. Click the frame that you want to link to.
You can only link frames if:
The target frame is empty.
The target frame is not linked to another frame.
The source and the target frames are in the same section. For example, you cannot link a header frame to a footer frame.
The source frame does not have a next link.
The target or the source frame are not contained in each other.
When you select a linked frame, a line is displayed that connects the linked frames.

  • Have you used the new workflow features in CM 12?

    In CM 12.0, users can optionally deploy the standard
    approval processing or new flexible, workflow approval
    processing based on the project and/or document. Have you
    used the new workflow features? Do you think the new
    workflows will allow your organization to better drive and
    control internal and multiple party reviews?

    I was one of those users who fight for this
    functionality.
    I find using it however very
    unhandy.
    Let me give you real
    life examples:
    1. Once you
    create an order/contract and do not choose "New
    Method" you cannot change approval method to new any
    more. Imagine one of my users was creating an order
    with 120 items (hell of typing!) then she spotted that
    she cannot send it with new review process to several
    reviewers in sequence. The need for retyping it makes
    5 other ppl already against this software, even if
    they did not used it at all.
    2.
    Document Owner has admin rights.
    For some
    reason user needs to be document owner in order to
    setup review process. Imagine in our situation usual a
    site assistant, or junior person in technical office
    is responsible for creating and typing all the
    orders/contracts. So this person needs to be Document
    Owner in order start review.
    Document owner
    however can also approve/reject in name of other users
    mentioned in review cycle. This I find strange and
    make entire new review/approval cycle worthless, as
    the situation is still that anyone can approve someone
    on someone behalf with no control.
    <br
    />3. Alerts missing. I couldn't find an alert that
    would be generated if a document is held internal (by
    user) for more then ... x days.
    <br
    />4. I'm also missing a Project Setting for "all
    documents must use new review process"; "defoult
    reviewers is + 'All in sequence' + 'list of reviewers'
    - for each kind of document.<br /><br />If
    you want to force users to follow a strict
    methodology, and your software gives them chance to
    choose whomever they want, wherever they want, use any
    approval method, approve on someone behalf ... you
    will finally fail.<br /><br />I keep
    hearing that Primavera sold thousand of licenses, and
    they will develop this product, I just hope they will
    hurry, before users switch to other software.<br

  • Question about using the Combo Box feature!

    I have a form that I am trying to create for our company that will allow our field nurses to select what they need and print it more effieciently.  The problem is that some of the selections are too long and I can't get the Combo box feature to allow them to be printed on multiple lines:
    I have spoken to my supervisor about redoing the form to look like this:
    But in order for us to meet state guidelines it has to be formated like the first because that is the state form given to us.  I want to be able to either:
    A) have the combo box multi-line auto text sized so it will get all the information into each box
    OR
    B) create text boxes at the end of the form that auto enteries the selected data from the second picture into boxes that look like the first picture.
    Is there any way to do either of these?

    A) No.
    B) Yes. Create a text box with the following code as the custom calculation
    script (assuming the name of the combo is "Combo Box1"):
    event.value = this.getField("Combo Box1").value;
    That way, when the user makes a selection in the combo-box, the value will
    also appear in the text box. Just make sure to make the text box read-only
    and set the combo-box to apply the selection immediately.

  • I just downloaded 18.0.1; but now I can't use the search box feature on Start Page.

    Encouraged recently by Mozilla to update older software. Prior to this had no problem inputting information into the search box of Start Page, clicking "search" and then receiving information.
    Now, clicking "Search" does not respond.

    hello dkcurt, first please see if installing the search reset addon can resolve the issue: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/ (a restart of the browser is necessary afterwards).
    otherwise try the following steps in order to manually restore the search function on the default homepage:
    #go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information and click on profile folder/show folder. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named '''chromeappsstore.sqlite'''.
    #then enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone''' - right-click and reset that entry to the default value.
    #restart firefox

    Hi, this is a user support board, apple employees don't post here. Just mentioning that since your message sounds like you thought you were writing to someone who can give out apple thingies
    Deauthorize your desktop over and over, since you say it is using more than one authorization. Here is an articel on that:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1206
    If that doesn't work you can use the "deauthorize all" method once per year, which is explained here

  • How to use the Combo Box In MAtrix Colums

    HI Experts,
    Good Mornong.How to use the Combo Box In MAtrix Colums?
    Regards And Thanks,
    M.Thippa Reddy

    hi,
    loading data in to the combobox on form load.but, it should be done when atleast one row is active.
    the values what ever you are inserting in to combo should  be less than or eqhal to 100 or 150.if it exceeds beyond that performance issue arises.it takes more time to load all the data.so, it is better to have 100 or less.
    oMatrix.AddRow()
    RS = Nothing
    RS = ocompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoRecordset)
    RS.DoQuery("select ItemCode,ItemName from oitm")
    oCombo = oMatrix.Columns.Item("ColumnUID").Cells.Item(oMatrix.RowCount).Specific
    For i = 1 To RS.RecordCount
          If RS.EoF = False Then
                oCombo.ValidValues.Add(RS.Fields.Item("ItemCode").Value,RS.Fields.Item("ItemName").Value)
                RS.MoveNext()
          End If
    Next
    the above code is inserting data from database to column combobox.
    you can fill combo directly also as shown below.
    oCombo.ValidValues.Add("x","1")
    oCombo.ValidValues.Add("y","2")
    oCombo.ValidValues.Add("z","3")
    oCombo.ValidValues.Add("","")
    and what ever the values you are filling into combo should be unique.other wise it shows valid value exists.
    regards,

  • I just bought and installed the Adobe Illustrator. I would like to know how long can I use the product before an extension is needed?

    I just bought and installed the Adobe Illustrator. I would like to know how long can I use the product before an extension is needed?  And on how many computers can I install this product? Thanks.

    What version exactly did you buy? If you bought CS6, then the license is perpetual and doesn't need any extension. If you bought CC, then you need to renew your plan every year. You can install each Adobe software on 2 machines with a single license for non-concurrent use.

  • Is it secure to have the pulic open a resource guide in Adobe Reader?  Or is there a way to make sure anyone using the link to the guide is secure?

    Is it secure to have the public open a resource guide in an Adobe Reader PDF?  Or is there a way to make sure anyone using the link to the guide is protected?
    Not sure how to find an answer to this.

    I am trying to post a 123 page resource guide online for the public to access through the website of a non profit.  The guide has a lot of web links for to use for more information.  But there have been clickability issues when using some browsers to download the PDF and so I would prefer to suggest that they try to download the resource into Adobe Reader before using.  I want to make sure that this would securely safe for readers and users.

    I don't have a solution for you, but just wanted to let you know I used to have the exact same problem. I resolved it (for the most part....about 90% of the time, anyway) by adjusting the screensaver and power settings to never let the computer go to sleep.

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    I have been having a issue with getting the colors on my monitor to match the colors fro my print lab. I now have the monitor calibrated to match the prints but when I open elements it doesn't use the same colors. If i have it use the calibrated profile by changing the color management settings, the color picker no longer shows true white or black. How do I get elements 12 to honor the new calibrated settings?

    Ok so I've done what you said and this is what it's come back ....
    I don't know that these are the errors , but they're the things which don't look right ...
    Throughout the shut down there is a recurring line ;
    It says ;
    Com.apple.launchd 1 0x100600e70.anonymous.unmount 301 PID still valid
    Then there are 2 more which I think are related ;
    Com.apple.securityd 29 PID job has I overstayed its welcome , forcing removal.
    Then the same with fseventd 48 and diskarbitrationd 13
    Oh and on Launchd1 : System : stray anonymous job at shut down : PID 301 PPID13 PGID 13 unmount...
    Then the last process says "about to call: reboot (RB_AUTOBOOT).
    Continuing...
    And stops ...
    Hope this means something to you ... Thanks again for your help so far :-)
