Only part of my character style will apply when used in a numbering format.

I have created a NOTE: format. I used a numbering format to create it, as follows in the Bullets and Number section of the paragraph styles dialog box:
List Type: Numbers
Format: None
Number:   NOTE:^t
Character Style: My Special Character Style
And here is my character style:
Underline: ON
Weight: 15 pt
Offset: -4
Color: Black
Tint: 20%
And here is the problem:
The underline does not show up when the character style is used from within the Bullets and Numbering section of the paragraph style. I can apply the character style to plain old text and t will work fine. But that portion of the character style will not show up when it is referenced from the Bullets and Numbering screen. Interestingly enough, strikethrough has the same problem. The rest of the attributes of my character style (font, color, etc) work fine. But the underline won't apply.
Any ideas as to why?

I believe this is a known bug; underlines don't work in this situation, though other text attributes, like bold, color, italic, do.

  • Add a line as part of a character style in InDesign CS4

    Hi all,
    I'm new in InDesign and am in the process to design a 4 pages newsletter for the internal IT dept. of my company.
    Each page (A4) has 2 columns and will contain one or more articles.
    I'd like to create a character style to format the title of each article so it would stand out and include a line underneath the text.
    I had a look at in the underlining options and nearly found what I needed except that I'd like the line to be the same length as the column width and not the same lenght of the text it underlines. So I managed to achieve what I wanted by drawing a line; but is there a way to include that line as part of my "article header" style so I don't have to draw it each time?
    Or maybe there's an option to make the underline longer than the text, but I didn't find it.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi guys and thanks for your super fast answer.
    I'm in ID now and there's no such option in the Paragraph style panel.
    Basically the underlining options in the Paragraph Style window are +/- the same as for the Character Style one.
    Options available are:
    tick box to activate option
    weight
    offset (moves the lines up and down to the text, but doesn't increase the lenght of the underline)
    colour
    type
    The options, tint, overprint stroke, gap colour, gap tint and overprint gap are greyed out for me.
    This is what I want to get. The first line is with the underline option on (line is same lenght as the text)
    Second one is with a line drawn as grahical object.
    So question is: how can i include a line like in the second example in a style so I don't have to draw it each time?

  • No style applied when using light framework and WPC content

    Hi,
    Iu2019m facing a strange behavior, and Iu2019m almost pretty sure that is an error in the WPC, but I decided to post it here, maybe someone can confirm it. When using both, Light Framework and WPC, for some reason, the text inserted in the WPC containers, using the Web Forms, doesnu2019t appear correctly (no style/font applied), but viewing the same information, using the Default Framework Page, it works correctly.
    Any hint?
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

    Hi,
    The reason why I decide to use Light Framework, itu2019s because Iu2019m creating an EFP, and Iu2019m using the WPC to publish the content (articles, news, and link list), using the standard Web Forms.
    The problem is, after adding to a WPC Page something so simple like an article (using the Web Form Article), no Portal iView, HTMLB or other stuff included, the preview of the WPC Page using the Default Framework Page is ok, but when using the Light Framework Page, the text in the article doesnu2019t have the correct font-family. It looks like there are some styles missing in the Light Framework Page, that WPC content is expecting.
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

  • Only part of IMovie HD movie will export into Quicktime

    I'm trying to export a movie from IMovie HD into Quicktime, but the video will only export up to a certain frame, while the entire audio exports. Hard drive space isn't an issue. I tried saving it on an external hard drive with a ton of space and it did the same thing. It doesn't give me a message, it just doesn't include the video after a certain point.

    Hi
    a. Does it indicate low on free space ? NO THAT'S why I parrot it !
    Only internal (booth/start-up) hard disk counts.
    b. QuickTime is the heart of iMovie, iMovie HD, FinalCut Express and Pro.
    If it doesn't work - non of above will
    c. There should be ways to mighrate material to FinalCut. I only know howto
    with the imported/captured material

  • Auto exposure not applying when using the auto enhance function

    I am on Aperture 3.6 and Yosemite. I use a Canon 6D and shoot in RAW. When I am doing the batch auto enhance to my shots, I find that even though in the adjustments preset Auto Enhance includes auto exposure, often it is actually not applied. Are there anyways to fix this? The images actually are a bit underexposed and I now need to go through picture by picture to click on the auto button under adjustment. Thanks.

    Have you set your camera to use Canon's Highlight Tone Priority? Then most of the Raw files will be underexposed, because Aperture is developing the RAW file "as is" and not applying the in-camera settings. See Keith Barkley's user tip.

  • Shortcuts not applied when using installer-dec extension jnlp

    Hi,
    I have written an installer for my application, it does some copying tasks and ask the user for some init issues.
    I have successfully created the two jnlp's required to launch the installer and then the application. Now, I changed the success behaviour of the installer so it asks for a restart.
    Problem is, Shortcuts for running the application are placed on desktop/startup folders only when application is first run. when the computer is restarted there are no shortcuts. So the user most find the web location again in order to run the program, this is not the behavior i was looking for.

  • Page break not applying when using sub report inside main report

    I have a main report inside which there is subreport (using SQL Server 2012). I placed some page breaks inside subreport but they were not working. I read on technet forums that this is a a known issue with SSRS. 
    One solution I found is to put a table inside main report, then in first row add a rectangle and set its property "Add a page break after" and then add subreport after this rectangle in that table in main report. I did that and now in some cases
    it does show sub report on a separate page but sometimes it shows subreport on same page.
    Could it be because in some case sub report has no or less data (hence it cannot cover whole page) and in that case it will always show on one page? How can I show empty subreport on a separate page?

    I fixed it by clicking both "Add a page break before" and "Add a page break after" in rectangle.

  • Is anyone using PAM for archiving e-mail? I am having trouble opening archived e-mail attachments using Firefox. I know the reason for this is part of the url gets left out when using Firefox. Works fine with Internet Explorer.

    This part of the path https://mail.domain.org/owa/ (see below) when place in allows Firefox to open the attachment.

    Autodiscover service on Exchange seems to be ok from the result of testing. We might change our mind and check if this is a network issue.
    If you are using Windows 7 or higher version OS, try to run the following command in CMD to disable the Autotuning function:
    Netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=disabled

  • Packet sniffer only picks up UDP and no RTP packets when using JMF???

    Hi,
    I am developing a voice mail application to interface with asterisk. Here is the problem.
    I am using ethereal packet sniffer to sniff the packets. When I connect two regular SIP phones and sniff , I can sniff the RTP packets.
    But when I use JMF AVtransmit2.java and AVReceive2.java I sniff only UDP packets and no RTP packets.
    I am very confused. What is going on? If JMF sends over RTP (that uses UDP underneath), then why cannot packet sniffers detect it.

  • My Hotmail login details only save in IE, but do not retain when using Firefox as broswer. There seems to be something in FAQ's, but can't resolve

    When using IE, my Hotmail details, always save for next login (using the "keep me logged in" tick box).
    Using Firefox to open Hotmail, my details are never retained and (using the "keep me logged in" tick box also), I have to put full details in each time, rather annoying....does Microsoft do this on purpose to retain IE users?
    As mentioned above, there does seem to be something in the FAQ's, but even following this, i can't seem to get this to stop happening, so whilst wishing to use Firefox more often, for Hotmail access this is a bit of a pain!!!

    I'm not sure whether such Hotmail features work with Firefox.

    Can anybody help!!!
    Hi, OS MCE 2005 (Fully Patched) I have tested my system with 3 fully working ATI Radeon Cards (9800Pro, 5550 & 9200SE) all cards crash when entering Media Centre GUI or using any 3D app (e.g 3DMark 2003). I have fitted an NVIDIA 5900XP and the system runs 100% stable. I have a fresh install of OS, .NET ,Motherboard & latest ATI Drivers (V5.10) drivers. I have even fitted a replaced the motherboard (MSI K8MM-V. Is there a fix or are ATI cards incompatible with this motherboard/chipset. Any advice greatly received.

    Look at this link...https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=89456.0

    If it works, let the forum know so other can figure this out as well.
