[JS] [CS5] Possible to change "Paragraph Spacing Limit" with a Script

Hi,
right now I'm writing a simple script which formats some text. For this formatting I need the vertical Justification "Justify" with a "Paragraph Spacing Limit" but I can't find something helpful.
Does anyone know how to set the limit to a specific value?
Thanks in advance, Statixx
Here's my not yet finished Script
Edit: script edited, had a few major mistakes
#target InDesign
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
var mySelection = myDocument.selection[0];
var myParagraphLength = app.selection[0].paragraphs.length;
var myParagraph = app.selection[0].paragraphs;
var myTest
mySelection.visibleBounds = [0,0,30,90];
mySelection.textFramePreferences.insetSpacing = [3,3,1.5,3];
mySelection.textFramePreferences.verticalJustification = VerticalJustification.JUSTIFY_ALIGN;
if ( myParagraphLength == 3) {
       var myPara0 = myParagraph[0].contents;
       var myPara1 = myParagraph[1].contents;
       var myPara2 = myParagraph[2].contents;
        myParagraph[0].pointSize = "13pt";
        myParagraph[0].leading = "13pt";
        myParagraph[0]. fontStyle= "Bold";
        myParagraph[1].pointSize = "10pt";
        myParagraph[1].leading = "10pt";
        myParagraph[1].leftIndent= "10";
        myParagraph[2].pointSize = "10pt";
        myParagraph[2].leading = "10pt";
        myParagraph[2].fontStyle= "Bold";
        myParagraph[2].leftIndent= "10";

Hi,
That is a textFramePreferences property
mySelection.textFramePreferences.verticalThreshold = Number (range 0- 8640)
ID Object Reference says:
"...The maximum amount of vertical space between two paragraphs. Note: Valid only when vertical justification is justified; the specified amount is applied in addition to the space before or space after values defined for the paragraph..."

  • Changing Paragraph Spacing in the Title window

    How can I change the paragraph spacing in Adobe CS6 Premiere Pro Title Window?  When I adjust the Leading, the lines are too close together while the space between my lines (after I hit ENTER) is still too far. 
    Must figure this out!
    Thank you in advance for your help!
    SportStir

    Yes, you are correct, but I would like the ability to adjust the spacing between the lines independently. 
    In the example below, all lines are spaced equally between them, so the spacing between lines 3&4 looks appropriate.  However, I would like to make the spacing between lines 1&3 and 4&6 about half a lines worth of space, while keeping the same spacing between lines 3&4. 
    1. Title
    2.
    3. Blah blah blah
    4. blah blah blah
    5.
    6. more blah blah blah
    Hope this helps further explain my dilemma.
    Thanks again in advance,

  • Changing paragraph spacing with CSS

    Hello there
    How can I change (if possible) the spacing a web browser
    renders between two paragraphs. The only way i know how is to use
    the line-height property, but this also affects the line spacing
    within the paragraph.
    Thanks

    Use margin-top and/or margin-bottom on the p tag.
    Padding can also be used but margin is better.

  • Crop Settings: CC different from CS5/Possible to change settings?

    I just recently joined CC; I used to use CS5. Back in CS5 when I would crop a picture/change the dimensions simply by dragging a corner with no additional buttons pressed. It would show me the entire picture, but the parts that were not within the crop box would be faded, to show exactly which parts of the picture would not be shown. In CC, those faded parts are completely gone. It will not show me the entire picture as I am cropping it. Is there a way to change that setting, back to what I had with CS5?

    Oh so that's what "Delayed" does. Thanks Peter! Your solution worked perfectly

    I have tried a different method where I made a new datatype and a new domain which converts the output from an xfeld to an traffic light.
    in the domain ZXFELD_ICON
    I have input char 1 and output char 4
    I made 2 conversion routines for the exit routine
    CONVERSION_EXIT_ZXFEL_OUTPUT
    and transformed the data in here
    if input = ' '.
        select single id from  icon
                         into  output
                         where name = 'ICON_GREEN_LIGHT'.
    else.

  • Change extension collection rows with a script

    Dear all,
    On the scorecard, i have created an extension collection.
    By using a script on the moment of saving this document, I would like to change some rows in this extension.
    When I actually save, i can see that the records have been saved, but afterwards, when leaving the scorecard, it seems that the old values are displayed again. When I use the same logic to Add a new row instead of changing one, it works, but i absolutely need to be able to change an existing one. Any idea how this could be caused?
    Thanks in advance,
    Tom

    Hi,
    In what context have you put the script? We had a similar request on the Contract Document page earlier this month. We initially wrote the script in the "Save" context and that was giving us issues on exercising control over the extension collection. As in, we were not able to lock the collection and get rid of the old values.
    What we did was to write the script on the "Validate" context instead of the Save and that resolved our issue.
    I'd request other scripting experts on the forum to also pitch in with their recommendations.
    Thank you,

  • Paragraph Spacing Bug?

    Whenever I open a fla in CS5, any classic text paragraph spacing that was a negative value is set to 0.  Has anyone else experienced this?
    My version is 11.0.2.489.

    It happened at http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/How-do-I-get-rid-of-home-profile-call-area-on-r... yesterday immediately after accepting the answer. It also persisted on page reload after editing the answer post.
    But it no longer seems to be the case there, which is weird, unless somebody changed something.
    The next time it happens I will grab a screenshot and a link and some more details about the css. I should have the first time but I didn't think it was going to be a transient issue.
    Was using Chrome 43 on Windows 7.

  • Changing Paragraph format mid-sentence

    Hi Dev's,
    Can anyone tell if it is possible to change paragraph format (or more specifically, font size for a paragraph format) mid sentence/mid line, and if so, how?
    I have assigned a paragraph format for the MAIN data, of type Courier 8pt.  In my footer, I want to display a text literal 'Total' of Courier 10pt, but have the totals in the rest of the line the same size as the data in the MAIN window (8 pt).
    The SAPScript for this totals line looks like this:
    ,,<B>Total:</>,,&G_TOT_TRANS(R)&,,&G_TOT_TAX&,,&G_TOT_NET&
    where to display the variables G_TOT_TRANS, G_TOT_TAX and G_TOT_NET on this line only as 8pt.
    Points awarded for successful for solution.
    Cheers,
    Stephen

    Hi,
    I believe the character format should work..That is what the purpose of the character format..To format the character within the paragraph..
    Did you activate the sapscript..Did you move the sapscript to the testing client..
    The standard sap help definition for character formats..
    <b>Character formats, as opposed to paragraph attributes, allow you to format entire blocks of text within a paragraph.
    Character attribute groups can be:
    Standard
    Font</b>
    Anyway check this link for character formats..

    You need a BlackBerry data plan (BIS) on your line. Once you do and the service books are pushed to the device, you will have the option to set up Internet email.
    If you are paying for BIS and don't have the option to set up Internet email, call your carrier customer support. Could be the carrier goofed on their side of the setup.

  • How to change the font size in sap scripts?

    hi friends,
        i had a query regarding to SAPSCRIPT.
      how to change the font size of a text in sap script form in which it should change it  dynamically.
    is it possible to change the font size dynamically in scripts.
    one more query regarding to this only.
    i need to get the hard copy of a script .
    what is the transaction code to get the hard copy?

    Hi venkata,
    You can specify the font size either in the Character format or pharagraph format.
    You better decide it according to your requirement.  If you want to apply the same font size for the entire form create the Paragraph format and give the paragraph format in the default paragraph format.
    If you want to apply that to limited text, then create character format.
    The process of creating it is just after going inside paragraph format click EDIT-> Create Element and give the font size.
    This applies for character format also.
    Reward points if useful.

  • Change Page size with a Script

    I have made artwork in Illustrator that is set up as two page spreads on 1 artboard.
    I need to convert this to single page spreads.
    I.e. So for half the documents, I need to set the anchor point of the document to top left and half the width of the artboard.
    For the other half of the documents, I need to set anchor point to to right and half the width.
    Is this possible with scripting?
    I have look around online to find ways of accessing the document size and anchor point via scripting, but cannot seem to find any resources.
    Thanks for any help that can be offered.

    New Pages is double spacing after enter again- can't find the area in inspector that allows you to change paragraph format...help?

    The "new" Pages is missing just about everything.
    Your best best is to go back to the old Pages (mavericks puts in in your applications folder in IWorks.
    Apple told me that based on input from users they will add back some missing features back but I suspect that will take a long time if ever.
    They (Apple) say they created a new Pages to make it work seamlessly on various devices.
    But in doing so they've dumbed down the programs to where they're nearly useless.
    Any new users who don't know what "old" Pages could do will probably be satisfied.
    But those of us who use this program to do real publishing should send feed back to Apple.
    Apple has decided that we are "heavy" users and not representative of the majority of their customers.
    That's why I suspect that putting back the features in Pages will not be top priority.
    But just in case they really do read the feedback send them your opinions and feature requirements and just maybe if enough people squawk they'll at least put the old Pages back in the App Store (it's gone now).
    One possibility crossed my mind. If the new OS Yosemite can mirror devices, perhaps we'll be able to mirror the old pages on to our IOS devices than you could have the full capability of Pages and the connivence of an IPad or IPhone.
    Wouldn't that be awesome?
    At least in the presentation, it looked like it could work, we'll see.
