[JS CS3] Show Text Threads

Does anyone know the syntax to script the View > Show Text Threads command in CS3? It seems that it should be something like:
app.activeDocument.viewPreferences.showTextThreads
...but that isn't in the DOM. I can't seem to locate it. Can this be done?

Hi Fred,<br /><br />Here's a little function which will retrieve any menu action based on it <br />name (which appears in the UI). It's much quicker to access menus <br />directly (rather than loop), but this is an easy way to find them.<br /><br />function GetMenuAction(name){<br />    var menus = app.menuActions;<br />    for(var i=0;i<menus.length;i++){<br />        var menu = menus[i];<br />        if(menu.name == name){return menu}<br />        }<br />    return null;<br />    }<br /><br />Actually, this works too:<br /><br />menu = app.menuActions.item("Show Text Threads"<br /><br />Harbs

  • Show Text Thread in all opened Document

    I want to show text thread in all opended Documents, here is my script, but have error, anyone can fix?
    var myEnableTextThreads = app.menuActions.itemByID(24332);
    var myEnableTextThreads1 = app.menuActions.item("Hide Text Threads");
    var myEnableTextThreads2 = app.menuActions.item("Show Text Threads");
    ShowThreads();
    function ShowThreads(){
    var myDoc = app.documents;
    for (var i=0; i<myDoc.length; i++) {
    if (myDoc[i].menuActions.item("Show Text Threads") == true){
               myEnableTextThreads.invoke();
                 alert("Text Threads Shown");

    Hi,
    No such property is exposed for scripting, unfortunately.
    The one to observe is a menuAction.name ==> but this is only an effect of some procedure involved by menuAction. Even worse ==> script will show you the last menuAction status - not the one is currently applied to activeDocument. It will update after menu activation in UI, not earlier.
    So you can only toggle between both of them regardless on its current state, using app.menuActions.itemByID(24332).
    If you will try to check (by script) its current menuAction.name ==> sometimes is true, sometimes is false.
    If you will check it manually ==. is true cause is updated already.

  • [CS3 JS] pasteInPlace keeping Text Threads

    Aloha
    I am working on a script the will copy all textFrames on all pages and do a pasteInPlace on a new Layer.
    I have everything working with the pasteInPlace. Other than loosing the Text Threads from overset text.
    Is there a way to have the newly pasted Text Frames do a overflow into the proper Text Frame?
    In my case the overflow Text Frames are on a different page.
    Example:
    Page One has Three Stories. Two of them have overset text. One story is flowed into a Text Frames on Page Two the Second one on page Three.

    I don't want to move them just make a copy of them.
    I took a look at the layers part from a different direction. I am now just making a copy of say Layer 1 to Layer 2. This keeps everything intact.
    But I am Also looking at doing the same thing but Document to Document.

  • Red triangle/exclamation point on text thread

    About a week ago, when I'd open up the menu listing all of my text threads with various people, I noticed a red triangle/exclamation point icon showing up next to the name of one person.  A few days ago, I began experiencing trouble opening up this particular thread; I would just get the "loading" message.  My friend has been able to send me texts, I just can't open them.  Any idea what this might be and why it seems to be affecting only one text thread?  Thanks!!

    I ended up calleing tech support and the problem was that I had not deleted any of my texts and I didn't have enough space.  I deleted old messages and the problem is solved.

  • PDF to InDesign and text threads

    I have only a PDF of a 300+ page book. I tried using the PDF2ID plug-in to transfer to InDesign CS3, and it looks clean. However, each page comes in as a separate, unthreaded text block. Is there some way to thread all the pages at once?
    The book is pretty much straight text.
    Alternatively, are there other plug-ins that would do the job?
    Thanks,

    PDF to InDesign and text threads
    Hi Sandee,
    Thanks for your quick answer. I tried the trial version and couldn't get the text frames to link so I wrote to recosoft and got the very puzzling answer below. So I'm wondering how this works. Would you know or would you know the direct contact of the gentleman who spoke at the InDesign meeting in SF in January?
    Thanks,
    Gail
    > I notice a couple of things, however.
    > 1. Converting a whole chapter, I notice that the text boxes are no longer
    > linked.
    Text Frame linking is only performed within a page and that also PDF2ID has
    to perform responsible Text Frame linking otherwise frames that shouldn't be
    linked will.
    A PDF file doesn't contain any kind of text frame linking information.
    PDF2ID makes this on its own.
    > I believe one of the new features is to thread text frames.

  • Text Threads

    Is there any way to copy or print a text thread from my Trophy? I would like to show someone a complete chain of threads from a year ago until now and would like to know the easiest way to get that data.

        Good question Bales! As far as the whole thread is concerned, there is not a way to print that off. You can send the individual texts to your e-mail address via normal SMS and then have them all together. The easiest way to have that information is just to have it shown on the phone. You can reference http://bit.ly/T60Euh for further assistance! Thanks!

    Hi Shaik,
    I know what people given value to their language and SAP has provided the concept of Internatinalization
    Internationalization describes the process to create applications that display messages and handle user input according to the language setting of the client (also known as "locale"). To do this, the messages of an application are stored in a text file, called resource bundle, separated by language. The resource bundles are named with the ending of the ISO country code (for example, _de for German, _en for English and so on). The application takes the proper resource bundle, according to the language setting of the client. See chapter "creating resource bundles" for more information, how to create resource bundles with Eclipse and JBuilder.

  • How can i create a simple netweaver portal page that shows text and images?

    Hi,
    i have a simple question or maybe it's not so simple.
    I am completly new to SAP Netweaver 2004s Portal. At the moment i'm trying to understand the struture of the whole thing. I already know how to create roles, worksets and pages and i know how to combine the different elements so a user can acces them.
    And now i want to create a simple portal page that shows text and images. Is it possible to create such a simple page with the portal content studio? What iView do i have to use?
    (I just want to create a start page with a welcome text on it.)

    Marc
    Considering that you would any ways go ahead with complex development from this simple start page I recommend create a Web dynpro Iview for your start page (include the Iview in your page).
    For putting the contents use Netweaver Developer studio to build a simple start page application and put your static text on that Iview.
    Please go through the following log after your NWDS development is over - This will make you comfortable for further challenging work.

  • How do I copy a very long iPhone text thread and email to myself?

    I would like to copy and email myself a long text thread on my iPhone to save as a permanent document in text format.  I only see now that I can do two possible things:
    #1)     Screen Shot page-by-page and then email to myself those photo images of the text conversation (but they will not be in text format)
    OR
    #2)     Select each reply, one by one, and then forward those to my email.  This could take an entire week to do.
    Does anyone know of a better option?

    Well, you didn't mention Mac, but to my knowledge, TouchCopy works on both platforms. And, my understanding of the OP was to send each one individually, whereas WiseJD was referring to selecting them all so you could copy them all and send, rather than emailing each individual piece.
    It wasn't that I thought it was rude, but that it was a complaint about something that someone said a year ago. You did not come here to ask a question, or indicate at all that you were looking for a solution to a similar question. It was just that you came on, slammed a response and left it at that. Those of us that take the time to answer people's questions as volunteers and users just like you. If you spend a great deal of time here, you will see a lot of different types of questions/comments that can get on your nerves. Here is a link for TouchCopy and it does work on both platforms. http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/

  • How can I show text sentence on XY graph

    Hello,,,, anyone knows??? How can I show text sentence on XY graph?
    I just know that the only numeric data type can be the input data but my case I have both the number and message to show on the same graph.
    Thanks in advance
    Mannie

    You start out with an array of zero size. Since replace array subset does not change the size of an array, you stay with zero annotations. If nothing is there, you cannot replace it.
    Possible solutions:
    (A) Instead of reading the current annotation list (which is zero!), you could initialize the shift register with a diagram constant (right-click...create constant), expand it to the desired number of elements and make them all e.g. with a blank text.
    (B) Alternatively, you can manually create the desired number of annotation by right-clicking on the graph and select "data operations...create annotations". Now you start of with an array of the correct size if you read the annotation list with a property node and you can replace them programmatically with new annotations as desired.
    (C) You can also initialize the shift register with an empty array, then use built array to add annotations.

  • Exported PDF's from FormsCentral show text until submitted to 3rd party application

    Hello,
    I'm running into an issue when trying to export a group of PDF forms that were created in FormsCentral they do show text when opened with Adobe Reader.  However if another program attempts to read the PDF it does not show the text input by end users into the form.  If I print the PDF file to PDF and then attempt to index it with different software the submitted text is usable.  I'd like to find a way to not have another step in the process to print to PDF for an existing PDF.  I'm not sure if the text is showing up as a background layer that isn't visible to other applications or if it is potentially the font which is Trebuchet MS.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hello Gen,
    We are importing the forms into Banner Document Managment System.  Once they are saved as a PDF every part of the PDF is visible to the document except what the user has input.  Then when it is saved and searched for in Banner Document Management System the text no longer shows up when the PDF is opened.  They will show up if I print to PDF using CutePDF Writer and then upload into Banner Document Management System.  Banner Document Managment System is used to host all of the school's documents when they are submitted.
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • Grouping Causes Text Threads to Disappear; Photo commentary with captions

    Is there a way to group picutres inside my text frames without making text threads disappear?  As soon as I select my text, photos, and jump text, the text threads disappear.
    Also, is there a formal way of adding text commentary to a photo?  I'd like to use the term "captions" but I know that captions mean a different thing in InDesign.
    Thx!

    It worked, thanks.
    Any information on the picture captions?

  • Bridge CS3 shows different colour on previews when they are selected

    LS,
    Problem, all of a sudden: Bridge CS3 shows different colours on previews when they are clicked and selected. At first, they are ok, they look the same as they are on camera. When I click an image and select it, it looks like there's a colour profile being applied to it, making the colours dull, its also pulls back the contrast of the image. Can this be corrected in prefences or something? So that the previews are the same as non corrected raw processed files?
    David

    Oh, good grief…  Sorry.  I forgot you haven't updated yet.  My bad.  
    In CS3 you'll find the Auto Tone adjustments in the Camera Raw preferences, and the use of high quality in Bridge preferences.  You won't have all the options available in CS4.
    If you are shooting raw, the upgrade to CS4 just to be able to use ACR 5.3 (and now 5.4) is a no-brainer.  Well worth the money.
    If you don't upgrade, you'll be leaving a lot of raw image quality on the table, as Jeff Schewe says. ACR 4.6 is light years behind 5.3 and 5.4.
    In addition, Bridge 2.x (CS3) is easily the worst piece of software ever released by Adobe or any other major software developer.  It should have been fixed for free by Adobe, but shamefully, it wasn't.  I would not hesitate to call it an unusable, worthless piece of cr@p.  Fortunately Bridge 3.x (CS4) is much better.
    However, I repeat:  What you are seeing is perfectly normal, expected behavior.
