InDesign CS6: How do I set Character Color to Unspecified/Undefined in the Paragraph Style Options?

Is there a way to create a Paragraph Style that leaves the Character Color unspecified? I have a bunch of existing text frames containing characters of various colors. When I apply the Paragraph Style, the text is changed to black. I want the text color to remain unchanged; that is, I want the Paragraph Style's Character Color attribute undefined. How do I do this?
All of the text frames in this case have their Character Style set to [None]. The text colors were applied individually, not via the use of Character Styles.

If you apply the color to the characters via Character styles then the colors will be unchanged when the Paragraph style is applied. Like this:

Hi, I am using Indesign CS6, How to set the page size in Inches.

Hi, I am using Indesign CS6, How to set the page size in Inches.

All fields in InDesign can be entered in any measurement system. So, if you want to make an 8"x10" document and go to File>New Document and the window looks like this:
…you can type either 8 in or 8" into the Width field like this:
…and when you move to the next field, it will convert the eight inches into the equivalent number in the unit of measure that it is using at the moment, like this:
… (203.2 milimeters is the same as 8 inches). You can also enter a different measurement unit into other fields once the file is created, such as the width or height of a frame, or the position of an object in the X and Y coordinates.
If you would rather just work in inches instead of having to type the inches mark or abbreviation, go to InDesign>Preferences>General and select the Units & Increments tab. There you will see Ruler Units for Horizontal and Vertical at the top of the window. Set them to Inches and all of the fields will display in inches. If you do that to an open document, you will change the unit of measure for that document. If you do it while no documents are open, it will change the unit of measure for any new documents you create. To change the unit of measure for existing documents, you will have to open each and make the change.

I just got InDesign CS6 and am running it on an iMac and I know the license is good for two computers which will come in very handy for me. How do I set it up to access it from my second iMac?

I just had an afterthought, Peter, if I could bother you further; if the downstairs iMac that I want to access it from is in my wife's name and not mine (even though I'll be the one using it on her computer) does that affect anything or can I simply load the software straight into her computer without any complications?

How can I install InDesign CS6 with my newly purchased serial no. when I have deleted the trial?

hi guys,
I need to know how I can install InDesign CS6 with my newly purchased serial no. when I have deleted the trial version? In other words I do not have the trial version any longer so I need the actual download files/folder to link the serial number to. I have CC as well but that shouldn't make a difference - I need to run InDesign CS6 for third party plugins.
Any help would be appreciated.
MWP

Hi there,
If you have purchased CS6 Indesign Download from Adobe Online, then you can go ahead and login to your Adobe account and navigate to "My Adobe" > "My Orders" to locate the Order, its download and the serial number.
You can also download the same trial version again and just use the serial number to activate it to a full version. Below is the link for the trial versions for CS6 versions:

How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.

Hi,
How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.
My InDesign cs6 keeps crashing, so my boss ask me to reinstall back. But the problem is, how do I check the serial number? Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who.
Please help.
Regards,

>Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who
Not very good office/employee management... but if you DID know who, and you had his/her Adobe ID, you could go to https://www.adobe.com/account.html for a list of activated programs

How can I set a gap in a JTextField, before the active Textfield starts?

Hi,
how can I set a gap in a JTextField, before the active Textfield starts?
I'll avoid, that the input text starts immediately after the border of the JTextField.
Btw, how can I set the height of the JTextField in a BoxLayout?
Thx.
Hans

Yes, that was also my thinking, but nothing happens.
Maybe You have an idea :-)
Thx, Hans
Here a part of my code:
private JPanel createEntry(String label, JTextField jtf, String initJtf, boolean editable) {
    jtf.setColumns(15);
    if (editable) {
      jtf.setEditable(true);
      jtf.setBackground(new Color(191, 191, 255));
    else {
      jtf.setEditable(false);
      jtf.setBackground(SystemColor.control);
    jtf.setText(initJtf);
    jtf.setForeground(Color.black);
    jtf.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLoweredBevelBorder());
    jtf.setMargin(new Insets(50, 20, 50, 40));   // <- The PROBLEM
    JPanel panel = new JPanel();
    GridLayout gl = new GridLayout(1, 2);
    gl.setHgap(1);
    panel.setLayout(gl);
    panel.add(BxpCdmUtils.Utils.createLabel(label, Color.darkGray, Font.BOLD, 11));
    panel.add(jtf);
    JPanel superpanel = new JPanel();
    superpanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(superpanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
    superpanel.add(panel);
    superpanel.add(new JLabel(" "));
    return superpanel;
}

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities? Seems like there isn't an option to set this up. Normally you could add/set up this in the airport setup assistant- but that doesn't exsist any longer.
Thanks for any suggestions

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?
Unfortunately you can't, since Apple dropped support of the older AirPorts with AirPort Utility 6.x.
Using some workarounds....not supported by Apple.....you might be able to download and install an older version of AirPort Utility that would allow you to administer the older AirPort.

How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?

Hello guys,
Very embarassing question, because I've had Apple's for all of my life (starting with the original Apple Macintosh) but I still haven't figured out one thing
How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?
When I go to System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats I can set different formats. I have no idea where you will see these, but I know that it's not the top bar where the time and date is being displayed. Because no matter what I enter, the format in the top bar will stay the same. I can only choose things like 24-Hour clock or not, blinking dots and so on in the Time & Date settings from the System Preferences.
Can anyone here point me in the right direction? I see you can even choose to display the week of the year - I'd love to do that!
All help appreciated!
Greetings

Language & Text system preferences, Formats tab, customize dates.
There are also many third party menu item utilities that can. Search Macupdate.com for some.
One search yielded iClock Pro. Although I never used it I would think it allows customization. The link I gave you is to the Macupdate download page for that app. On that same page is a Similar Software section which has other apps that can do the same thing.
One listed is iStat Menus. The primary use for iStat Menus is not for displaying date/time but it does do that. And I know it can do what you want because I use iStat Menus to track temperature sensors n my machine and, like you, I want to customize the menu time/date. So I use it instead of the apple clock. It does have the customization features I think you are looking for.

You are writing that in the perspective of having read about it here already. Repeated often enough that you encountered it somewhere in the posts.
Users are flooding in here and don't know any of this. Of course we have to repeat everything endlessly.
Because I like to give precise, understandable and workable answers to repeated questions, and Apple doesn't allow sticky posts here, I created a separate forum which users can consult to look up real answers, and contribute for themselves if they have something valuable to add:
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/
There is a section purely devoted to Pages 5. Add whatever answers you feel will lighten the problems of Apple's 'upgrades'.
Peter
* Where have they acknowledged anything?
** They have barely anything listed, compared to the massive list of deleted features, and nothing but an extraordinarily long time frame considering they created the problems here and now. Apple has not said they will do anything at all about fixing the real issues, the biggest of which is that the new iWork apps break virtually all the work of existing users.
