Is there a way to auto-renumber tables and figures in an InCopy document?

I am looking for a script or plugin to be able to auto-renumber figures and tables in large InDesign/InCopy documents. Say if I add a new figure in between figures 4 and 5 I would like all following figures to automatically renumber and all references to those figures in the text to also auto-renumber like in a Word document. Possible? We have over 100 authors that are concerned this can't work. Need help.

The link below is to a zip file containing: 2 PDF files which are excerpts from Help (one on autonumbering and the other on cross-referencing) and a CS6 InCopy file with sample paragraphs using autonumbering for multiple list levels, tables and figures. If you have a Lynda.com account, that's perfect for quickly learning more about cross-references and autonumbering. I created the sample file quickly so I hope I put all of the elements you were trying to see in the file. If not, let me know. I have never posted a link on a forum so again, let me know if there is a problem getting the file. Hope this helps.

Is there a way to auto fill DATE and TIME

I have the field format set to mmddHHMM
Can you please tell me how to have the date and time auto fill when the PDF is opened?
I am new at this so details are very helpful. Thank you!

Let's say the field's name is Now. Go to Tools - JavaScript - Document JavaScripts and create a new item. Name it "scripts".
Delete any code that is created by default and enter this instead:
this.getField("Now").value = new Date();
Click OK and you're done. The field will update each time the file is opened.

Is there a way to create a table of contents listing the order of tabs(sheets) in a Numbers document?

I am planning my wedding and I have this huge Numbers document with 20+ tabs and I have plans to add many more tabs. Is there a way to create a table that has two columns: column 1= order that a tab appears, column 2=tab name? For example, my first three tabs are called Venues, Must Haves, and To Do List (in this order. I'd want this table of contents to be in the first sheet of the document, so it would be like sheet 1. Then I 'd want like the cells of column 1 to be like 2, 3, 4 (2nd, 3rd, 4th sheet in the document), and then the cells of column 2 to say Venues, Must Haves, and To Do List. I can make a tiny table of one cell in each sheet that I copied the name of the sheet and then do like a cell reference for column 2, but I'm having trouble w column 1.

There is no referential value for the order of the sheets, just the sheet name. Only two things I can think of to suggest:
Do the same thing for the first column that you do with the second (i.e. put a referential column in the same table as the Name and point to that).
Seriously consider using a word processor program. Numbers is probably the wrong tool.

Is there a way to create "temporary" tables in SAP database?

Hello,
Is there a way to create temporary tables in ABAP?
Here is our scenario:
1. Invoke a custom RFC that creates a temporary table and returns the name of the table.
2. Invoke another custom RFC and pass this table name as parameter. This RFC internally does some INNER JOIN with the temporary table.
3. Invoke the third RFC to delete the temporary table.
Note that the name of the table cannot be static. We have many users using our application simultaneously and connecting to the SAP server.
I would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I just ran into a similar issue. While only calling the select statement 2 times, each time had so many entries in the 'for all entries' list, that the compiler converted this into about 700 calls to the select. Now since the select joined three real tables on the database, the trace shows this one select as being the slowest item in this application.
I think that happened because 'for all entries' gets converted to an 'IN' clause, and then the total number of characters in any SQL statement has an upper limit. So the compiler must make the select statement over and over until it covers all entries in the 'for all entries' list. Is that correct?
Since every database I ever saw has the concept of db temporary tables, I have used db temp tables many times for this sort of thing.
The ABAP compiler could determine that more than one IN statement will be need, then use an alternate: write all the FOR ALL ENTRIES to a db temp table, then join on the db temp table, then drop db temp table. Since the compiler does this sort of thing, no application code needs change to get the speed boost.

Is there a way to auto number your headers?

Hi guys
So I'm working on my thesis in Pages now. Everything goes quite well, but I stumble upon 1 question. Is there a way to auto number my headers? I know Word has a feature like that, but I'd like to figure out if it's possible in Pages also.
To picture my problem, I would like to achieve something like this:
1. Header 1
2. Header 1
3. Header 1
3.1 Header 2
3.1.1 Header 3
For example:
1. Branding (header 1)
1.1 Brand image (header 2)
1.2 Brand experience (header 2)
1.2.1 Retail (header 3)
Thank you guys!

Hi there
I use the latest Pages version (that's 5.2 I think)
Hmm, to bad there isn't an automatic way of doing it like in Word.
Still, thank you for your reply man! :-)

___Is there a way to auto-update a graphic once it's made into a symbol?

___Is there a way to auto-update a graphic once it’s made into a symbol?
For example - I've made a circle as a symbol, and it's in my document 100 times - is there a way to edit each instance, so it becomes a square?
Also, can I have live text in it that replaces (ie. a circle with 'new' in it changes to a square with 'improved' in it).
Thanks,
Ryan

Yes
create the replacement
drag it over the existing symbol in the symbol pallete while holding ALT key down
(or whatever ALT is equivalent to in MacOS)
all existing symbols will update to new symbol

Is there a way to auto shrink all the tesxt in all my slides in keynote instead of doing them individually?

i have my lecturer slides put there are all just a little bit too big, is there a way to auto size all the slides or do i have to do them individually?

yes,I imported different times the same iphoto libraryon one external hard drive.
I use to take One to One classes at the Apple Store. Each time i asked a teacher how to back up my i-photolibrary on a external hard drive they gave me a diferent way to do it, each teacher thought he could do better than the other... As this classes is only one hour long, I had to start all over again with the next teacher on the following session...
So know they are diferent version of he same library mixed up together and i am trying to clean up all this. It just take to much space on my disc and it is all confusing . Voila, that's the story!
What is the difenrence btw alias and duplicate ?

Is there a way to "mix" the nodes and leaves of the tree so if they are at the same level, they will display in a specified order.

Is there a way to "mix" the nodes and leaves of the tree so that even if they are at the same level (1,2,3...), they will display in a specified order (via sort sequence, alphabetical, etc.).
History:
We are using the Tree UI element to display/manage a material bom interface. We seem to be running into an issue with displaying the nodes/leaves of the tree.. regardless of the order that the context is built (which is currently the order of the exploded BOM from from CS_BOM_EXPL_MAT_V2), the bom is displayed with the nested boms at the top of each level and the single materials below them. For example. If TK1 contains Material1, Material2, Material3, Kit1(containing component1, comp2, comp3), Material4, Kit2(containing comp4, comp5, comp6), and Material5 (in this order), the tree will display with the A level node as TK1, the next node as Kit1 (with its subleaves of comp1,comp2,comp3), Kit2(with subleaves of comp4,comp5,comp6), THEN Material1, material2, material3, material4, material5. Our users are adamant about the items displaying in the correct order (which should be alphabetical based on the description for one report and by location for purposes of inventory for another). I've searched but not been able to locate a similar question. If I've missed it, please point me in the right direction. The users want the tree, not a "tree" table. This is our first attempt at the tree, so maybe we're missing something basic?
TK1
-Mat1
-Mat2
-Mat3
-Kit1
--Comp1
--Comp2
--Comp3
-Mat4
-Kit2
--Comp4
--comp5
--comp6
-Material5
displays as
TK1
-Kit1
--Comp1
--Comp2
--Comp3
-Kit2
--Comp4
--Comp5
--Comp6
-Mat1
-Mat2
-Mat3
-Mat4
-Mat5

co-workers said example picture is misleading.. we can make the order work if everything is a "folder" but not a mix of "folders" and "files" (if making a visual reference to the windows browser). i.e - a file is represented as an empty folder.
TK1
. Mat1
. Mat2
. mat3
> kit1
.. comp1
.. comp2
.. comp3
. mat4
> kit2
.. comp4
.. comp5
.. comp6
. mat5
displays at
TK1
> kit1
.. comp1
.. comp2
.. comp3
> kit2
.. comp4
.. comp5
.. comp6
. mat1
. mat2
. mat3
. mat4
. mat5
we can make it work if everything is a folder. This is our current workaround.
TK1
> mat1
> mat2
> mat3
v kit1 (when expanded)
.. comp1
.. comp2
.. comp3
> mat4
> kit2 (when not expanded)
> mat5

Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text) I'd like students to be able to view my comments on printed version of their papers.

Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text) I am a teacher, and I would like students to be able to view my comments on printed versions of their papers. I know word displays the comments off to the side of the document, and those comments can be viewed all at once and printed alongside the document.

There doesn't appear to be a way to print conmments in either Pages or Numbers in the Mavericks versions.

Is there a way to remove existing music and upload new from a new itunes account without loosing previous apps. Itouch 32gb, generation: I don't know, has no camera...

Ok, so. My Uncle recently gave my family an itouch that he had owned previously. Which meant that it came complete with applications and music and such. But as I found out my uncle has a very different taste in music than us, so I am trying to add my music from My itunes account. But he already has 1620 different songs on there, some of which I would like to keep and others not so much. Is there a way to keep the applications, and some of the music, while removing many of the songs???? Feel free to ask anymore clarifying questions.
Thanks.

You should restore the iPod to factory settings/new iPod and add/purchase your own media. The media did not transfer with the iPod hardware. Using it would be stealing.
