[JS] "InDiCode" : Unicode toolbox for InDesign (beta-test)

"InDiCode.js" allows users to:
- insert characters by Unicode id (or set of id's)
- identify "special characters"
- check available glyphs in the current font
It's supposed to work on ID CS, CS2 and CS3.
I hope you'll enjoy to beta-test it.
Overview and download here:
http://marcautret.free.fr/geek/indd/unicode/part3.php
Thanks for your feedbacks!

Thanks Peter,
As you see, the dropdown list is just a predefined collection of ranges which make easier the inspection of usual Unicode sets. The "javascripter" is highly requested to customize these sets for his own convenience. Alternately, it's possible to stipulate any range directly from the Unicode field, using comma separated values and/or dashes for Unicode segments.
You have a point : the glyphs/ranges available in the current font are certainly documented in the font file itself. The problem is that I don't know how to extract and parse this information! For the moment, the glyph-checking process is "empirical", thanks to the Dave Saunder's outline-trick:
http://jsid.blogspot.com/2006/03/what-and-wheres-that-glyph.html
[Precision: SpecialCharacters names and id's exposed from the script are also hard-coded, despite of your great method using the array SpecialCharacters.reflect.properties. The point is that I wanted InDiCode to be InDesign CS-compatible.]
I rely on users feedbacks and requests to improve and extend the process in the future. InDiCode has been primarly designed as a library and the script hosts a lot of "sleeping" features (exporting methods, UTF8 translation...).

  • Looking for a beta tester

    I'm putting the final touches on my next app. I'd love to get another set of eyes to help me go over the app. So I'm looking for a volunteer to help me test the heck out of my app.
    In return I will offer my time to help either the same person with their app (testing, not writing) or the app of someone else. Kind of a Pay-It-Forward idea.
    So if you are seriously interested and have the time this week or next to help me out please contact me at:
    rmaddy followed by the circled A then G mail company suffix.
    Ideally the willing person will look for bugs as well as offer suggestions on usability, and the like.
    And I'm looking for an person who does not develop iPhone apps professionally, but on their own time. No NDA required but I'd like to keep the app details between me and the other person until it's released.
    Thanks.

    may i?

  • Rimscape Beta Testing Begins

    A game that I've been working on for the last for the past six months is now ready for public beta testing.
    Rimscape is a sci-fi trading and combat game where you can pilot a variety of spacecraft, arm them with a large selection of weaponry, and explore a randomly generated galaxy. It is a game in the style of Escape Velocity and Solar Winds.
    The game can be played on the Gamelizard website. A link to the game can be found in the news article "Rimscape Updates and More."
    http://www.gamelizard.com/
    In order to save your games you will need to register at Gamelizard.
    Just to clarify, the current version of the game is the webstart version, not the one under "Play Now" or in the games section. The website will be updated with the correct links shortly.
    http://www.gamelizard.com/webstart/rimscape.php
    Some elements of the game such as the main campaign of quests are still being worked on. We're looking to remove bugs and balance the various items in the game.
    Over the next week the Gamelizard site will be updated for the beta to include things such as a forum for testers. Also updates will be continually made to the game.
    Here's a few screenshots to picque people's interest:

    if you actually READ the popup you getdefinition of pop up.Well, no pop up on my screen.
    I actually did READ the instructions. The part about pressing action key 'ENTER' to purchase a ship.
    You asked about public beta testing, well that's what I'm doing.
    Do you want my feed back or not?
    meaning, like, total **** cardtotal what **** card???
    again second time running this game, I get 4 -10 fps on screen menu, user interface.
    Bad, poor user interface, again could not purchase ship, due to bad fps.
    After pressing enter key 10 times, clicking on the ship ten times with mouse, it finally purchased.
    Not easy to use menu system.
    Once playing game, fps went up to 25 - 30, which is good.

  • Beta Test Group

    Hi -
    Does anyone know if there is a
    beta user test group for future releases available? I
    would like to get in and have the visibility to see future
    enhancements and not just read a document list/screen
    shots or a view a controlled on line demo. Our company is
    too small to have a separate test instance set up.<br
    />
    I think having some of the user community
    in there before launch could help eliminate some issues
    when going live or at least be prepared for them.

    Hello PB,
    There are no current
    plans for a beta test group on future releases.<br
    />
    Have a great day.

  • Are we Beta testing the N97 for Nokia?

    Because if i was given this as a beta release i would have told them what i thought, the current launch version on the N97 with V10 firmware is barely an Alpha release, this phone was a rush job thrown out on the market to coincide with the launch of the iphone 3Gs.
    This is my fourth N series, N80, N95, N95 8gb (the best N series yet), and now this N97 what should be Nokia's flagship, but being stripped of apps and filled with Trial versions to please the accountants at Nokia.
    Day one and it locked up twice, corrupted my contacts when synced with OVI, and ran down to less than 4mb on the C drive, day 2 i found the GPS was not working, it was a joke, walking down the road under a clear sky and it could not hold a signal lock, driving was worse barely holding a signal for a few seconds and as for sitting spinning it round for an age to get the compass to work........forget it id rather be lost than look like a **bleep**.
    Deleting apps and reinstalling them on the mass memory frees up some space, but why should we have to do this, the whole phone is badly thought out and configured.
    Soon after the stylus supplied with the phone and attached to the phones only tie point scratched my screen, what was wrong with a rear cover with a bump and a thin PDA style stylus, no not good enough for Nokia, a fat thing on a string will do for them. 
    New Firmware release 4 days after UK launch and still not available to most users as it has not been network approved yet, 3 network say its Nokia's job and they are delaying things, Nokia say its the networks delay. Come on if it was needed that quickly why leave most of your customers waiting, or just get to work on a layered OS with a standardised core with a network layer, so everyone can have the updated without waiting.   
    4 weeks in on this phone, i too have the scratched camera lens, still No working GPS, and having some good negotiations with Three to try to reverse the contact upgrade, as i don't think another N97 will last any longer than this one.
    I see Nokia spending Millions on punting the N97, TV, Billboards, Net adds, why push so hard on what is a sub standard product, could you imagine Joe public trying to free off some memory by moving apps, tell the care centres to brace themselves the N97 flood will be coming their way.
    What next, well if 3 don't cancel the upgrade, then Nokia will have to fix my phone again and again and again untill it works as advertised, in the mean time i am off to get in touch with watchdog so they can let Joe Public know what to expect from an N97.
    Rob 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I don't believe we're beta testing the N97 for Nokia. Beta testing suggests it is in a state prior to production. Nokia's track record (at least to me) seems that leading edge phones never reach a stable plateau.
    What I believe happens is the phone is released and remains unstable until they sort of perfect the platform, then a new handset is released bringing a whole new world of bugs and problems and so the cycle continues.
    By the time the phone is suitable for every day use it is, by today's technological stance, ancient and the damage has already been done to the reputation.
    S40 phones seem to fare much better, mainly because it is much more widely used within Nokia. S60 is up against some fine competition from vendors who will rush fixes out.. Nokia only ever seems to rush phones out. It isn't the same and it shows (see their forcast for the next 6 months)
    I honestly would not be surprised if this flagship phone limps on in a partially functional state until it is superceeded by a budget blackberry clone.
    Sad? Very! Am I being cynical, or telling it like it is.
    I'd be real interested to know if any exec at Nokia used the N97 in the weeks before it was released.. Not that I'm a fan, but we all know Stevie J used an iphone long before it was released.. I kind of get the impression they must all use very basic "corporate" s40 handsets and assume their flagship product must be of the same calibre.
    Next release, why not give 100 people N97 for testing, real testing.  It seems Nokias quality assurance team is out of touch with what a $700 handset demands.. ooooh, I gasp in awe at your 30 MB of free capactity when you remove ALL the applications you can. (It's like having a 2TB hard drive in a computer and continuing to boot from a floppy)
    I appreciate there are product time lines to meet, but if Nokia were aiming to compete with the likes of the pre, iphone and the various android handsets (not even mentioning windows mobile) rushing out a phone like this was very wide of the mark. Concept wise, the N97 is a great design.. the implementation of both the hardware and software just isn't going to cut it in todays market.. 
    (but this is what they want? you'll get bored with the handset and buy a replacement! yeay!)

  • Looking for Connection iPhone beta test users

    The Connection tools team is looking to release it’s first iPhone application for user based administration access. The app is built on top of the new REST based API’s for user access (as opposed to the full administrator CUPI access) and allows you to do basic account configuration items for greetings, transfer options, voice name, private lists and a few other items. It’s currently limited to English only.
    If you have an iPhone (or iPod Touch or iPad) running iOS 4.1 or later and are running against Connection 8.6 and would like to beta test the app, email me directly at [email protected]
    Thanks.

  • Thanks for Beta testing the iPhone. Let me know when you're happy with it.

    I am so happy that Fresno was sold out of iPhones the day I went to buy one. Since then, I have been reading about all the problems the phones are having, and I'm glad I didn't get one. I am a loyal Mac user and look forward to owning an iPhone. I'm just glad there are people like you willing to beta test for Apple, and help them work out all the bugs. When you can hear the phone, visit flash websites, watch internet movies, and use a yahoo account successfully, sign me up. Until then, thanks for you hard work and patience.

    You are 100% correct in calling this a Beta version.
    I was a Q/A engineer for Intuit and Srint gave us
    phone to Beta test for them when they first came out.
    I have to say it was hard to find a funtion with a
    "bug" in it. Wheras it is hard to find a feature in
    the I-Phone that is bug free. I would have to say the
    Weather feature works well... Its those other seldom
    used features like the phone, calendar, contacts, and
    it web are still in step one beta!! And foget aobut
    support... I am still waiting on a return call from
    engineering for 5 days now.
    Why would Sprint/Intuit give you the iPhone to test? It isn't even on their network much less a CDMA phone.

    You know, it might have been cool to spam us with your project here if it were something cool for Java developers. Just because it's written in Java doesn't mean I want to see it here on a forum intended for Java developers. And I don't think Sun wants to run a de-facto bug tracker for n-type here on this forum.
    I can understand your excitement in your project coming to fruition, but Sourceforge has more than the needed resources for you. Try emailing this guy. Try posting on Freshmeat. We're not your marketing department or your focus group, though.
    Good luck with your project.
