Nonbreaking Space in a Paragraph Number

Is is possible to insert a non-breaking space in a paragraph number within a style definition?

You can't insert a "regular" non-breaking space, but you can insert the various fixed-width spaces, which happen to be non-breaking.

Need to 5 spaces before each paragraph and 5 lines between paragraphs

Hello,
I need to write a program to insert 5 spaces (indent) before each 1st line of the paragraph and 5 spaces between each paragraph....I am new to java so I don't understand everything I write and I try and use what is out of the book...so far have done well until this assignment. My program below does create a new history.d2 file but it is blank....anyone have any input to offer or can you help me understand where I am going wrong in the program....thank you kindly.
I am playing with the program now just to see if I can find my error but of course don't fully understand the function of every line so having trouble finding my error.....at the end of my program is the file of what I am trying to edit into the new file history.d2.

The Abacus (which appeared in the sixteenth century) was the
first calculator. In the middle of the seventeenth century
Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, built and sold gear-
driven mechanical machines which performed whole number
addition and subtraction. (Yes, the language Pascal is named
for him.)
Later in the seventeenth century a German mathematician
Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz built the first mechanical
device designed to do all four whole number operations:
addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The
state of mechanical gears and levers at that time was such
that the Leibniz machine was not very reliable.
It wasn't until the nineteenth century that the next major
step was taken, this time by a British mathematician.
Charles Babbage designed what he called his analytical
engine. His design was too complex for him to build with the
technology of his day, so his design was never implemented.
His vision, however, included the important components of
today's computers. His design was the first to include a
memory so that intermediate values did not have to be re-
entered. His design also included the input of both numbers
and mechanical steps on a type of punched card developed in
the late eighteenth century by Joseph Jacquard to be used
with a mechanical loom.
Ada Agusta, Countess of Lovelace, was a most romantic figure
in the history of computing. Ada, the daughter of Lord Byron
(the English poet), was herself quite a mathematician. She
became interested in Babbage's work on the analytical engine
and extended his ideas (and corrected some of his errors).
Ada is credited with being the first programmer. The concept
of the loop--a series of instructions that repeat--is
attributed to her. Ada, the language used by the Department
of Defense, is named for her.
During the later part of the nineteenth century and the
beginning of the twentieth century advances were made
rapidly. William Seward Burroughs produced and sold a
mechanical adding machine (that worked!). Dr. Herman
Hollerith developed the first electro-mechanical tabulator
which used a punched card. Data was represented by holes
punched on the card in certain positions. Descendants of
this card are still in use today. Dr. Hollerith formed a
company that is known today as IBM.
In 1936 a theoretical development took place that had nothing
to do with hardware per se but profoundly influenced the
field of Computer Science. Alan M. Turing, another British
mathematician, invented an abstract mathematical model called
a Turing machine, laying the foundation for a major area of
computing theory.. The most prestigious award given in
Computer Science (equivalent to the Fielding Medal in
Mathematics or a Nobel Prize in other sciences) is the Turing
Award, named for Alan Turing. A current Broadway play deals
with his life. Analysis of the capabilities of Turing
machines is a part of the theoretical studies of all Computer
Science students.
By the outbreak of World War II, several computers were under
design and construction. The Harvard Mark I and the ENIAC
are two of the more famous machines of the era. John von
Neumann (an American mathematician this time) who had been a
consultant on the ENIAC project started work on another
machine known as EDVAC which was completed in 1950. In 1951
the first commercial computer, UNIVAC I, was delivered to the
Bureau of the Census.
Von Neumann is credited with the development of two very
important concepts. The first is that the instructions that
operate the machine should be stored in the machine along
with the data to be operated on. The second is that data
(and instructions) should be represented in the binary number
system rather than the decimal number system.
The general organization of a computer has remained constant
over the last 40 years. This organization or architecture is based
on the ideas of von Neumann and bears his name. The
essence of this architecture is sequentiality. That is,
instructions (a program) are stored in sequential memory
locations in binary form and are executed in sequence, one
after the other.

Each paragraph is terminated in your text file by a newline character. So effectively what scanner.readLine() is doing is reading a paragraph of text.
1. Read paragraph into String (readLine())
2. Print or prefix 5 spaces to String.
3. Print 5x newline character

Calendar weekly view: unwanted nonbreaking spaces before the column link

Hello,
I have a column link in a calendar. In the weekly view, before the link text appears (specifically before the anchor element) multiple nonbreaking spaces are output. The more links I add to the calendar, the more spaces appear, so the links are all over the place in the cells. The HTML looks like
td class="DefDay" valign="top" ... multiple-nbsp-tags-here ... anchor-element ... link-text
Any ideas?
regards,
Malcolm.

Hi Denes,
Thanks for your quick reply. I have mailed you a screenshot of the corruption I am talking about. The whole page template is "application default". In the "Calendar Attributes" tab in that region, I have three options in the template combo-box: calendar, calendar alternative 1, and small calendar. None of those options have any effect on the column link display corruption. In the "Region Definition" tab. the user interface template is "reports region". I have tried a number of different templates there and none affect the corruption in the column-link display either. I'm using Theme "Modern Blue 20" and the template utilization screen off Shared Components says my calendar page is using a calendar template.
regards,
Malcolm.

How to get paragraph number of selected text in ID CS4

Hi,
Can anybody help me how to get paragraph number of selected text in Indesign cs4.
Thanks,
Gopal

Ah, I see -- thanks. Turns out that there's no difference in speed between texts.itemByRange(), characters.itemByRange(),and insertionPoints.itemByRange(). In a document with 170 pages of text, and with the cursor in the last paragraph, the second and third lines, below (and your function), give exactly the same result:
t = app.selection[0];
t.parentStory.texts.itemByRange (t.parentStory.insertionPoints[0], t).paragraphs.length;
t.parentStory.characters.itemByRange (t.parentStory.characters[0], t).paragraphs.length;

Creating Space after a Paragraph Style

Okay, all, this may sound weird. All I want to do in CS4 is have an extra 4 pt of space after a particular paragraph style. Specifically, my paragraph style, Body Text, already has "space after" specified at 3 pt. Fine. But, for example, when I have three paragraphs of just this style, I want the three paragraphs separated by an additional 4 pt of space. (There is no consistency in documents when this situation occurs.)
At first, I thought it might be possible to do this via a nested character style. Nope. Back in FrameMaker, I used to do this manually, whenever I wanted extra space. My trainers would add paragraph tags (ugh).
Still a newbie...
Thanks!
Lizbeth

Maybe I'm really missing your meaning here. When I override a style setting to get more space below, I add space below the *paragraph*. I don't adjust anything about the last line. This is no different in Framemaker. In Framemaker, you can add space above or below a paragraph, either as part of a style (what FM calls a "format") or as a style override. You don't "adjust the last line of a paragraph" in either program.
There's one important difference between FrameMaker's paragraph
spacing and most other DTP or WP tools: Space between FM paragraphs is
NOT ADDITIVE. Space below a paragraph is not added to space above the
following paragraph. In FM, the larger space wins. (I think Ventura
has this feature also, or perhaps has the option for additive or
larger-one-wins.)
If the issue is to make inter-paragraph spacing work non-additively
like FM, please file a feature request for this as an option, at:
www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
EDIT: The forum was unavailable for a while, and my email response was bounced. By the time I discovered the rejected mail, I saw Lizbeth's mention of having used Based-on paragraph styles. Probably the based-on style caused the mysterious behavior. The based-on property style information is only visible in the define/modify style dialog box. I'm going to enter a feature request for an indicator for the based-on property that will appears wherever a style's name appears, and, if possible, displays the name of the based on paragraph, character, and object style. Master pages do show the based-on master letter on the page icons in the pages panel, but they lose their own letter. I'll also ask for this feature.

How to design Storage Spaces with a large number of drives

I am wondering how one might go about designing a storage space for a large number of drives. Specifically I've got 45 x 4TB drives. As i am not extremely familiar with storage spaces, i'm a bit confused as to how I should go about designing this. Here is
how i would do it in hardware raid and i'd like to know how to best match this setup in Storage Spaces. I've been burned twice now by poorly designed storage spaces and i don't want to get burned again. I want to make sure if a drive fails, i'm able to properly
replace it without SS tossing it's cookies.
In the hardware raid world, i would divide these 45 x 4TB drives into three separate 15 disk Raid 6's. (Thus losing 6 drives to parity) Each raid 6 would show up as a separate volume/drive to the parent
OS. If any disk failed in any of the three raids, i would simply pull it out and put a new disk back in and the raid would rebuild itself.
Here is my best guess for storage spaces. I would create 3 separate storage pools each containing 15 disks. I would then create a separate
Dual Parity Virtual Disk for each pool. (Also losing 6 drives to parity) Each virtual disk would appear as a separate volume/disk
to the parent OS. Did i miss anything?
Additionally, is there any benefit to breaking up my 45 disks into 3 separate pools? Would it be better to create one giant pool with all 45 disks and then create 3 (or however many) virtual disks on top of that one pool?

1) Try to avoid parity and esp. double parity RAIDs with a typical VM workload. It's dominated by small reads (OK) and small writes (not OK as whole parity stripe gets updated with any "ready-modify-write" sequence). As a result writes would be DOG slow.
Another nasty parity RAID characteristic is very long rebuild times... It's pretty easy to get second (third with double parity) drive failure during re-build process and that would render the whole RAID set useless. Solution would be to use RAID10. Much safer,
faster to work and rebuild compared to RAID5/6 but wastes half of raw capacity...
2) Creating "islands" of storage is an extremely effective way of stealing IOPS away from your config. Typical modern RAID set would run out of IOPS long before running out of capacity so unless you're planning to have a file dump of an ice cold data or
CCTV storage you'll absolutely need all IOPS from all spindles @ the same time. This again means One Big RAID10, OBR10.
Hope this helped a bit :) Good luck!

Hi stephanie,
These are unrelated questions/statements.
Space before and space after a paragraph are controled in the Text Inspector, as you've found out.
Pages will create a page break whenever there is no room for another line on the page. That break can come anywhere in a paragraph.
You may be thinking of Widow and Orphan prevention, and the other Pagination controls, found under the More button in the Text Inspector. (If that's what you found, then thanks for the refresher! I hadn't been to that pane for awhile, and had forgotten the variety of pagination controls available.

E90: How to enter a space into a phone number?

Hi,
does anyone know if it's possible to enter a space into a phone number in the E90's Contacts manager? It is possible with my Nokia 9500, and I transferred my contacts from it to the E90, and spaces in phone numbers were preserved, but when I enter a new contact I can't find any way to enter a space! This is very frustrating, as I find it very useful to pad out numbers with spaces, for example to make it clearer which provider a mobile number has, or what city code a land line has, and it also makes it easier to read out numbers over the phone. I have the same problem with hypens, which are handy for separating extension numbers from the rest of the number. I see that there is an optional label "Extension (bus.)", but that's not much use if the extension is for the fax machine...

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for your suggestions, and for bringing OVI to my attention, which I hadn't heard of before. However, all the suggestions require the use of another computer or service, whereas what I want is to be able to work with my communicator "stand alone" as far as possible, without having to rely on other systems, especially Windows systems! One of the features I most appreciate about the E90 is the USB interface, which means I can make backups without having to rely on software that only runs under Windows. In my case this means I can make backups to my Linux PC very quickly and easily, without needing to install any special software.

I don't know about the E90, but with the E61 and E71 you can:
- add spaces from OVI and then update the mobile
- add spaces in Outlook (or whatever PIM you use) and then update the mobile
- import a text file (using PC suite) with spaces from your PC to your mobile
My guess is that all of the above would work with the E90. Let me know!

How to make nonbreaking space and/or hyphen

I'm trying to figure out how to to make a nonbreaking space and/or hyphen in dynamic textfields in AS2 (specifically with CS4 publishing to Flash player 7 or 8).
I just tried the new TLF textfields in CS5 and I was able to use & #160 and & #8209, but that requires publishing to AS3 and Flash 10. Those codes don't seem to work for the classic textfields.
I've also tried & nbsp; but that didn't work.
Anybody have some other way?

Kara,
You may see whether you can get close enough with this:
1) Cut the rectangle at the lower corners with the Scissors Tool;
2) With the bottom side path selected, Effect>Distort & Transform>Roughen with Smooth Points and trying out the other vaues to get the desired look if possible;
3) Object>Expand Appearance, Ungroup and delete the unwanted nostroke/nofill path;
4) Join the paths into one.
Save for Web as PNG24 (or GIF if you must) to have the transparency (and crispness).

Paragraph number in pages

Can anyone tell me how to find the paragraph number of the insertion point in a Pages 09 document?
Thanks

Maybe like this:
*tell front document of application "Pages"*
*set C to character offset of (get selection)*
*set N to 0*
*repeat with P in (get character offset of paragraphs)*
*if P > C then exit repeat*
*set N to N + 1*
*end repeat*
N
*end tell*

Does anybody else use "Nonbreaking Space (Fixed Width)" for this?

Does anyone else do this?
Does anybody else use "Nonbreaking Space (Fixed Width)" for this?
I add special "white spaces" of an unchanging width:
Is there an easier way to "automate" this? The way I do it is horrible ... horribly bad

I don't think you can automate exactly that, but you might be able to get spacing you like better in general if you reduce the word spacing range and increase the letter spacing range in your justification settings.

Find paragraph number for the particular table

Hi,
In my document having one story and it contains 5 tables.
I need to find 4th table of paragraph number.
Any one known the answer please tell me.
thanks by,
John peter

Hi,
1. find this table.storyOffset.index (lets say mIdx)
2. calculate length of paragraphs of text matched from
table.storyOffset.parentStory.insertionPoints.itemByRange(0, mIdx).texts[0].paragraphs length;

Cross reference that diplays only paragraph number

I need to create cross-references to numbered paragraphs. The auto number for the paragraphs includes not only a number, but a text character that is part of the number format. For example, a numbered list like 1) 2) 3) and so forth, where the cross reference display only the 1, 2, or 3, and not the closing paren.
FrameMaker has a building block <paranumonly> which ignores any characters other than digits in the auto number. InDesign doesn't seem to be able to do that. That is why I'm posting on the scripting forum. Perhaps there is a script that can do this?

In support of Niels' response, I'd written almost the same thing, but 1.__AG__, entered a more objective response (well put, AG!) before I sent my impressions.
I agree with Niels that
The reader might appreciate a more direct numbering system (the milspec standard of 1.2.2.2.2.1 would be the equivalent section to your 1B2b2a example
The tags used would be easier to navigate if they used a 1List 2List 3List convention, and that the punctuation used in numbering is a bit confounding at first glance
The xref format is straightforward if all levels are displayed at that point
Sadly, and as always, we can help with everything but the politics of your situation!
I do like Niels' suggestion of using the Running H/F to display the current section, if you're forced to use the numbering scheme as-is!
Best of luck navigating this with the powers that be.

How do I put a space after a paragraph in Pages 5?

This is something I did frequently in older Pages versions and in Word. Where is the setting for space before and after paragraphs?

It's in the styles panel, but you have to click the triangle / disclosure icon for "Spacing". This will expand the spacing section to show spacing before and after paragraph settings.

"Space After" Between Paragraphs

Hi,
Is there a way in InDesign to set "Space After" and "Space Before" like you can in Quark?
I tried to look in all of the menus and couldn't find anything. It's probably there, just can't find it yet.
Please advise.
Thanks.

The one on the left is space before, the one ont he right is space after. It's the same field whether you access it through the control panel or the paragaph panel. Note that the control panel is in paragraph mode, not character mode (In CS3 or CS4 the control panel may show these controls in either mode, depending on screen size and customizations, but they'll always be there in paragraph mode unless you've tuned them off).
