Insertion points for comments

Hi all
Is there any possibility to find out the insertion points of a comment(i.e ) in an indesign file? I need to draw an anchord frame near by the comment.
Thanks in advance

Good afternoon skylerssmith,
The Miele vent hood you purchased from one of our in-store Pacific Sales stores should be eligible for points, as long as it was not applied to a promotional financing offer and was not purchased in AZ, CA, or NV. It can usually take between 20 to 35 days for points from an eligible Pacific Sales or Magnolia purchase to post to a member's My Best Buy™ account, which would start after any scheduled deliveries have been completed. The return/exchange period for a member with Elite Plus status is 45 days.
I would like to see about potentially adding your Pacific Sales purchase to your My Best Buy™ account, but I will need some additional information from you first. To gather the information that I need, I will be sending you a private message. You can check your private messages by logging into the forum and clicking on the little yellow envelope at the top of the page.

I hope that you have a wonderful day, and thank you for being a My Best Buy™ member.

Determine if insertion point for tag is valid

How do you determine if the user's current position in the document is a valid insertion point for a <video> tag? Is there a built-in function? Thanks.

Hi
The only validation you can do is to check the dom structure of the document and try and determine if it is valid from this.

Placing Insertion Point for Images

Virtually all of the instructions for inserting images in
Dreamweaver tell you to first "place the insertion point in the
document where you want the image." How can I (Move) that is place
the cursor at a particular place on the blank page without using
carriage returns, tabs, etc that add unnecessary code.
Thank you for your assistance on what must be a trivial
matter for those more experienced than I

You cannot. You must build an HTML infrastructure that allows
your
insertion point to be placed where you want it on the page.
For example, if you want an image to be placed 100px down
from the top of
the page, and 100px to the right of the left margin, you
could do that by
building an HTML table with a cell that falls at exactly that
point. Then
you would just drop the image into that cell.
See - web authoring is not like using Microsoft Word, or a DT
Publishing
application. Unfortunately, you need to have some
understanding of the
underlying HTML/CSS to begin to work efficiently.

Is it possible to move the anchor point for an inline object?

I have noticed that sometimes the anchor point will get inserted in the middle of a word resulting in the spellchecker marking the word as misspelled.
I can't seem to find any information in the documentation about moving an anchor point. Is it not possible?
Thanks

Krisler,
Select your Inline graphic. Then click on the center of the graphic and drag the mouse's pointer into the text. When you get your pointer into the text you will see the insertion cursor (vertical bar) just at the tip of the mouse arrow. When you let go of the mouse button the insertion point for the graphic will be where the insertion bar was at that time. The key point is to concentrate on the position of your arrow tip as you attempt to reposition the insertion point.

How do I let Apple know they need to include an option for controlling the insertion point cursor in system preferences?

As described above.
I have spent far too much time investigating this issue! All I would like to do is have the insertion point cursor (the 'I' shaped text thing) not dissapear when navigating text in a word document with the arrow keys.
Some forums say it's an apllication issue, i.e. microsoft, others say you used to be able to do it in older versions of mac os'.
This isn't a problem for Mac programmes. Obviously it is an issue when Microsoft programmes cross over to Mac. If the computer was a PC then I could customise the blinking rate, turn it on or off etc under the control panel options. With a Mac running MS Office I have not got this option.
So how do I go about telling Apple of my displeasure? So hopefully for future editions of OS or Office for Mac this very minor but completely infuriating problem gets ironed out?
Cheers x

Thank you Ralph n Kurt, very quick off the mark boys, well done
Just checking in to inform you that today, after putting up with the issue for over a year, it has sorted itself out, MIRACLE! I don't know how but I've got a fully trackable insertion point when I navigate with my arrow keys!!
Do you think it's the big-wigs (because I complained to both Mac n MS) tweaking my computer behind the secenes? and if so which one would've done it? My money's on the geniusii.
Either way I am well chuffed and thanks again!

Insertion point thickness--help for the visually impaired

I experience difficulty in seeing the blinking 'insertion point' bar or carat.
I have increased the size of the cursor and I beam using the preference panel controls. I can see these clearly.
It would help if I could make the 'insertion point' thicker and increase the rate of blink. (I know its height is fixed by the point size of the font used).
I have looked at the Mighty Mouse software which allows you to customise cursors but not the 'insertion point'.
Grateful for help, advice, or guidance as to a way of solving this problem.
Many thanks
B:o)

Malcolm,
Thank you for your speedy reply.
Much appreciated. Have looked at these products and they look great. Sadly they don't appear to address the 'insertion bar' point that I'm seeking to solve.
Even so thank you for responding to my cry for help.
Best wishes

How do you change size of text cursor or 'insertion point' in adobe cc for mac?

how do you change size of text cursor or 'insertion point' in adobe ID cc for mac? I have looked everywhere. It's possible in Windows and Word but not in Mac. Please help. I spend half my time trying to find that blinking upright bar.

Thanks for your note but it’s still a skinny rod that seems to disappear. Why can’t it become a little thicker so it doesn’t disappear no matter what size I have set the screen? My poor old eyes aren’t what they used to be. I do appreciate your answering and I’ll enlarge the screen so the blankety-blankety blinking rod is at least visible. Nancy

Cursor size is governed by the type size and will be be larger or smaller on screen depending on how close you are zoomed in.

AS: getting integer from object reference of text for insertion point

I'm thinking in data merge that I need an integer for the insertion point. I have a handy object reference that says, "text from character 78 to character ..."
I'm trying different ways to get that first integer, but all the backwards ways are failing to turn it into an integer. Brute force such as coercion fail to work. How would you extract "78" from a object reference? thanx, sam

Thanks, that certainly appears to work, sam

What's the best point for inserting a "post rendering" FX?

Hi, I extended a Canvas3D and then I override the method "postSwap()", but my odd-even line effect is flickering a lot, what could be another good point for inserting this process?
public void postSwap() {
    Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)this.getGraphics();
    Map map = new HashMap();
    map.put(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_OFF);
    g2.addRenderingHints(map);
    g2.setColor(WipideaApplet.BCK2);
    int h = this.getHeight(), w = this.getWidth();
    for (int i=0;i<h;i++) {
        if (i%2==0)
            g2.drawLine(0, i, w, i);
}

postRendering()?
works for me and does not flick... i draw an image on it, so i guess it should work for you

Can you create a keyboard shortcut to insert a css comment (/* */)in DW?

hello DW knowers!
When writing code i like to use shortcuts for inserting commands.
For instance, to insert a html comment, i created a shortcut in the panel for creating shortcuts (you can do this finding in the shortcuts panel the 'insert' option and then find 'comment').
however, i did not find a way to create this for a css comment (/* */) and i find myself forced to use the coding toolbar to insert this.
I would really like to find a way to avoid this. Ofcoarse i can still type it in manually, or use the css rules panel to temporarely deactivate a rule, but selecting a piece of code and then typing a shortcut would be much easier.
Otherwise a great idea for the next upgrade of DW?
thanks for an answer, if there is a possibility

I use a Logitech G19 keyboard, which allows you to create one keypress shortcuts for virtually any keypress sequence. It has ten extra keys on the left side of the keyboard which you can program however you please (a total of 30 shortcuts). This particular keyboard is kind of expensive ($200) but there are other less expensive keyboards that offer similar capabilities. Think how many times a day you type <p> or how about <a href= . With a keyboard like this, you can do it in one keypress.

[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

How to locate the first insertion point on every page?

I need to paste some same anchored objects on every page for exporting RTF format.
So I need to locate the first insertion point on every page.
Then, I use the code below (make a simple example):
for(i = 0; i < app.documents[0].pages.length; i ++){
app.select(app.documents[0].pages[i].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0])
app.paste()
But when a file has a very long table spread over several pages, the location operation will select the insertion point before the table --- the starting point of the table.
For instance, a table start on page 3 and end on page 10
app.documents[0].pages[4~10].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0]) can't select the first insertion point from page 4 to page 10. (In terms of scripting, the insertion point exists before the very long table starting on page 3.)
How can I solve the problem? Thanks in advance.

I dont know exactly what you are trying to do but you can try this. If you have table which runs trough multiple pages, you can first divede this tabel, that cells on separate pages would represent stand alone table. Than you can fit textframe to this table. When addressing indention poin you will get right position.
In your case when table start at 3rd and ends on 10th page you would get 8 tables in 8 textframes on its own page. If textframes are linked and table is smaller than textframe you will have problem when addressing first insertion point on 4th or any other page. That why you should fit textframe to table:
var bl=app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0].baseline
var tf=app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0];
var gb=[tf.geometricBounds[0],tf.geometricBounds[1],bl,tf.geometricBounds[3]];
tf.geometricBounds=gb;
Now when you set
app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0] you will get position before table or
app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[-1] you will get position after table

How can i insert the insertion point in each paragraph first

Hi all
Please find the below script, this script place the insertion point in end of the each paragraph, but i need to place the insertion point in first letter of the each paragraph. Please help.
var myDoc=app.documents.item(0)
var myLib=app.libraries.item(0)
app.findTextPreferences=null;
app.changeTextPreferences=null;
app.findChangeTextOptions.caseSensitive=false;
app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes=false;
app.findTextPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle="TX"
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat="^p"
var myFinds=myDoc.findText()
for(i=0; i<myFinds.length; i++)
var myIcon=myLib.assets.item("Para").placeAsset(myFinds[i].insertionPoints[0])[0]
myIcon.appliedObjectStyle=myDoc.objectStyles.item("Para No")
Thanks & Regards
Nithin

@Nithin – inserting the anchor by placing the asset is changing the position of the next anchor, because the script's for-loop is running from the first found instance to the last found one.
If you go through all the found instances from back to forth would be one solution.
var myDoc=app.documents.item(0)
var myLib=app.libraries.item(0)
app.findGrepPreferences=null;
app.changeGrepPreferences=null;
app.findChangeGrepOptions.includeFootnotes=false;
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle="TX"
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat=".+\\r"
var myFinds=myDoc.findGrep()
for(i=myFinds.length-1; i>=0; i--)
var myIcon=myLib.assets.item("Para").placeAsset(myFinds[i].insertionPoints[0])[0]
myIcon.appliedObjectStyle=myDoc.objectStyles.item("Para No")
Another one would be doing the search from back to forth and not changing the for-loop:
var myFinds=myDoc.findGrep(true);
Array of Text findGrep ([reverseOrder: bool])
Finds text that matches the find what value.
