Is there a quick way to show/hide conditional text to create a book?

I have a set of files that represent chapters. These will be used in two books. Is there a way to show/hide conditional text from the book file rather than going into each chapter and setting show/hide for the book I want to create?

WIth the book file open and selected, select all the files in the book (Ctrl+A), and apply your condition settings. Update the book.

  • Show/Hide conditional text at a book level

    I am using TCS2 on Windows XP.
    FM 9.0 p250
    I have several files as part of a large FM book. Each file has the same text conditional tags. Can I, at a book level, set my conditions to show/hide, etc. and then update the book? So far, I only know how to open each file, set the SHOW/HIDE CONDITIONAL TEXT as I need it (not to show conditiona indicators and according to my built expression) and then save and close each file.
    Is there a way to do all my files at once? Note- I want them all set the same way... so that might make it easier..
    Thanks,

    I don't have FrameMaker available right now, so I'm working from memory, using the traditional FrameMaker menus, rather than the FM 9 tools.
    Select all the files in the book window. With the book window active, open the View menu and look for Conditional Text. Your settings here apply to all selected files in the book window, so it's possible to set conditions on all or some files files. Ctrl+Click to select non-contiguous files; Shift+Click to select a range of contiguous files.

  • Is there a quick way to get email addresses from Mail into Address Book?

    I would like to collect the email addresses that pop up when I start to type email addresses into the "To" area and transfer them into my Address Book, but have no idea where they are stored. Is this possible and if so is there a quick way to do it.
    Thank you

    I think I figured it out... I went into Apple Mail > Window > Previous Recipients and now im adding the ones not in my address book into my address book.
    It seems relatively easy... Apple, this is why I love you.

  • FM12: Show/Hide condition does not apply to entire book

    FM12: From the Show/Hide Conditional Text pod, Show as per Condition applied to entire book does not consistently update book with correct condition. Now to get the desired condition, I have to apply the condition per section in the book. Has the workflow for this feature changed with FM12? Or is it a bug? Thanks, Patti

    > ... I have to apply the condition per section in the book.
    No, you don't. You can apply it to all component files in one operation. In the Book menu, select all component files.
    View > Show/Hide Conditional Text
    {edit}
    [ Set ]
    As Arnis pointed out, you do need to Update the book for complete re-application of Conditions.
    Edit > Update Book
    {select all possibly excluding Apply Master Page}
    In particular, any Cross-References to conditionalized text will still be as they were until xrefs are updated.
    We exclude AMP from Update because it is unstable in FM7, and run it as a separate operation, and re-Update book after that because pagination may have changed.

  • Is there a quicker way to hide file extensions on multiple files.

    So, there's the real filename (visible in Terminal) and then the displayed name in Finder and some other applications such as Front Row. Well, I'm using Front Row and I would like my AVI files to display just the name of the movie - not the full filename.
    OS X allows me to change each file individually to hide the extension (either by renaming it in Finder or by checking 'hide extension' in the file's info box) and also allow the whole curtain to be pulled back via a setting in Finder's preferences. But there doesn't seem to be a way to hide the extensions of a particular bunch of files en masse.
    What I would like to know is: Is there a quicker way to do this for all my AVI files? There doesn't seem to be an Automator task that will change file properties (other than permissions). Is there a way I could do it at the command line perhaps? I'm fairly handy with Unix shell scripts and Perl - I'm just relatively new to OS X, that's all.

    The basic mechanism is to select all the files you wish to change then hold down the OPTION key and select Show Inspector from the Finder's File menu. Check the box to hide extension. This will set the preference for all selected files.
    If your files are scattered all over the place, then use the Finder's Find function to find all files with the extension attribute you want, then save the result as a Smart Folder. Then select all files in the Smart Folder you created and do the above.

  • In Address Book, any way to Show/Hide groups from view in the "ALL" view?

    I have groups of contacts in Address Book (v4.0.4) that I plan to use in the future, but right now having to wade through and past all of their individual entries when I am scanning my contact list in the "All" group view. Is there any way to Show/Hide these sub-groups with a visibility check-box? The sub-group name would still be there in the group list (to remind me that it exists and make it visible if desired), but I would have a lot less clutter and scrolling the rest of the time.
    I know I can export groups in vCard format and re-import later, but a lot of my original custom fields for the contacts are lost in the process. Is there a 3rd-party plug-in? (Apple, are you working on something like this?)

    Hi Mike, My Address Book app is behaving correctly (maybe I'm not).
    I'm just saying there are times when I want to see "most" of my total collection of contacts, maybe just for the purpose of creating new groups at particular time and want to see at one time the pool of contacts I have to choose from. There are groups that I very seldom need to use, so it would be a way of putting those groups (and their contacts) into "cold storage."
    I also may want to do searches from among most of my contacts, but also I may want to eliminate certain other particular groups from that search pool. That is the reason for wanting to do the "Show/Hide" thing. It is a way of displaying a logical "ALL" minus "SOME", which is the basically same thing as displaying the logical "UNION" of more than one group of contacts at one time. Can this be done?
    Is there a way to open alternate address books, from within the same Address Book app (and logged in as the same user)? That would allow me to truly isolate my work list from my home list.
    One answer to this occurs to me: I could create different log-ins on my PowerBook, and build the different variants of the Address Book I might want into each login and use Fast User Switching to get into each list of contacts. That seems like a lot of extra work . . . and logging in. Any suggestions?

    i have backed up all my music on an external hard drive and i was wondering is there a quick way to put it all back on itunes.

    Hello, Gazzlaa84.
    You can import your media a couple different ways.  If you plan on keeping the media on the external drive, I would just direct iTunes to read the media folder on the external.  Here are the steps on how to make that change.

    You can restore your iPad with your iPhone backup but items that are iPhone only will not transfer.  It should recreate all your folders.  It can't hurt anything to try.

  • Is there a short/hotkey to show/hide bookmark toolbar?

    I would like to have in options>bookmark toolbar unchecked, and a hot key or shortcut key to show or hide the bookmark toolbar.
    Having it checked takes room, and the autohide mouse hover addons get annoying when your going type in the URL bar and not use the bookmarks.
    Is there a hotkey for this.
    Thank you in advance.

    ''Is there a short/hotkey to show/hide bookmark toolbar?''
    There is no keyboard shortcut for the bookmarks toolbar.
    "Alt" will display the Menu Bar
    "Ctrl+/" toggles the add-on bar
    "Ctrl+K" displays Search bar because that is its entry area.
    "Ctrl+L" displays Location bar because that is its entry area.
    But there are alternatives, and you could set up zombie mode with the "Auto Hide" extension, so that the that is the only toolbar hidden or not hidden, though I wouldn't do that.
    You can use F11 to toggle Full Screen mode, which hides title bar and toolbars.
    On Windows you can use '''AutoHide -- http://www.krickelkrackel.de/autohide'''
    which provides a Full Window mode("zombie mode") with "Shift+F11" similar to full screen but within the confines of the window that allows you to just show the title bar, with options I use with it always show the tabs bar and addons bar in Full Screen or Full Window mode.
    In Full Screen or Full Window mode you can move the cursor to the top and see toolbars, use F10 or Alt to see menu bar, use Ctrl+K to see search bar, use Ctrl+L to see Location Bar. To see bookmarks bar you would need to show all toolbar toggle F10 or toggle F11.
    My bookmarks toolbar takes very little space less vertical space than shown in this [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/icons/fx4toolbars.png before/after] picture, see items 61-66 on styling in the following:
    You can make '''Firefox 6.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 6.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
    * http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
    There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

  • Is there a quick way to convert Albums to Projects?

    Due to bringing in legacy organizing from iView MediaPro into Aperture years ago... I have an organizational structure consisting of few top level Projects containing many Albums. I now realize I should have few top level Folders containing many Projects (which contain Albums when necessary).
    So the question is... is there a quick way to convert an Album to a Project? If I have to create a new Project for each Album I have by hand... this will take forever as I have hundreds of Albums.
    Thanks!

    Doing it manually is what I'm trying to avoid... I have a LOT of albums. I started trying to script it but I am trying to piece it together with my uber limited applescript knowledge... here's what I've got:
    tell application "Aperture 3"
    set imgSel to (get selection)
    if imgSel is {} then
    error "Please select an image."
    else
    set pName to name of parent of item 1 of imgSel
    set pID to id of parent of item 1 of imgSel
    set cID to id of parent of parent of item 1 of imgSel
    tell library "Aperture Library"
    make new project with properties {name:pName}
    repeat with i from 1 to count of imgSel
    move item i of imgSel to project (pName)
    end repeat
    end tell
    end if
    end tell
    It's ghetto (there's some stuff I need to comment out that wasn't used) and it seemed to work in the test library I setup, but when I went back there were some weird thumbnail issues so I'm scared... not to mention it doesn't seem to work in the actual library for some reason. It won't create the new project. Weird.
