Running heads in a book that pick up the chapter titles as they occur.

Please help. I can't make any sense out of the instructions. I've been working on this for a long, long time.

Thanks so much for your help guys. How does one "select the option" and  "insert a text variable." I've got the Master Page open. I've got the cursor inserted in the right-hand running head, positioned above the text block. The chapter name of the first chapter is "A Modern Business Building."
Now then. There are dozens of menus, drop downs, right-click things, left-click things, and on and on and on. I just want the running head to say "A Modern Business Building" followed by the page number.
Additionally, how does one select or indicate or check "first on page."?
I really appreciate your help and have moved away from the ledge.
Tom

    I downloaded some books that appeared to be in English but they aren't, how to I get my money back?

    Are they described in the store as being in English ? If they are then you could try deleting them from the bookshelf in the iBooks app and redownload them via the Purchased link in the ibookstore in the app : re-downloading.
    If they re-download in the wrong language again then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find the books and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24  hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created?

    I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created? I tried exporting them, but it loses all info. Also, how do I move the quicktime movies from one iphoto library to another? They were exported as jpgs

    Add both libraries to iPhoto Library Manager.  Then select the events or albums that you want to copy from library A  and drag them to library B in iPLM.

  • How can I make a photo from two merged projects available for a book that I started using one project ? They merge but the book only allows me to access the original project photos even though the merged photos can be seen in the project ?

    I have successfully merged two projects in order to add new photos for my book.  The library available to the book which has 26 completed pages accesses only the original project library.  Has anyone else had this problem ?  It is frustrating to see the photos I want in the merged project file, but to have only the original photos when I started the book available in the book library.

    That will work, but it is the long way 'round.
    As Frank noted, Book Albums are just specialized Albums.  Albums can show any Image in your Library, regardless of where the Album is located on the Library Inspector, and regardless of which Project contains the Image.  You can put your Albums anywhere (in a Folder called "Books" for example).  You can put Images from anywhere in your Library in any Album.
    The easy way 'round:
    - Make a new Book Album
    - Select Images you may want to put in your Book.  Flag them.
    - Select some more.  Flag them.
    - Go to the "Flagged" container (listed near the top of the Library Inspector), select all, and drag-and-drop them to your Book Album.
    - Repeat as needed, or just drag-and-drop directly into the Book Album.
    Note that you can remove any Image from any Album (including Books) by selecting and hitting the "{Delete}" key.  This _does not remove the Image from the Project that contains it, or from the Library.
    Note, too, that once the Images are in your Book Album, you then put them in the Book you are creating for publication.  The Book Album contains the superset of Images with which you populate the Book itself.  The Book Album also holds the Book.
    A good (imho ) introduction to the parts of Aperture can be found in this short guide I wrote.
    The User Manual is helpful.  Here is
    the chapter on making Books. 
    From that chapter, here is
    the section detailing how to create and populate a Book Album.

  • CREATING A TRIGGER THAT PICKS UP THE LAST INSERTED RECORD

    Hello everybody
    my question. is it possible to embed a sql query whitin a trigger? the thing is that when I have to insert the value, this actually would have to be retrieved from another table. It is an AFTER INSERT, but it needs to know which name I inserted in table 1 in order to also insert it into table 2.
    More specifically. Imagine a table with usernames and passwords that I populate as I set them up
    Then I need a trigger that as it sees that I have entered that username it takes it and populates another table with that plus a generated sequence that could be the result of some string function
    CREATE OR REPLACE
    TRIGGER GENERATE_SEQUENCE
    AFTER INSERT ON USERS_TABLE
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    insert into GENERATED_SEQUENCES_TABLE (lastinserted_name,surrogate_key)
    values(SELECT USERNAME FROM USERS_TABLE WHERE USERID....., SUBSTR (lastinsertedname¦¦ password), 1,12);
    END;
    so, this lastinserted name is what I am trying to retrieve. I mean if it is not madness to insert a sql query in the way I have done it, I could write in the query to select the highest ID from the PK and that would give me the last inserted name.
    thanks a lot
    Alvaro

    In an insert trigger you can reference all the inserting values with :new.column_name, hence there's no need to select from the USERS_TABLE table:
    CREATE OR REPLACE
    TRIGGER GENERATE_SEQUENCE
    AFTER INSERT ON USERS_TABLE
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    insert into GENERATED_SEQUENCES_TABLE (lastinserted_name,surrogate_key)
    values(:new.USERNAME, ...);
    END;

  • Mac Book wont pick up the Airport signal unless near the iMac

    Hey
    Since the latest update (?) my MacBook has been blanking on my airport on start up. It's been using the same network for years. It only picks up with a cold reboot if sitting in front of the iMac. Then it's happy as Larry - full bars, anywhere I take it around the apartment.
    Have cleared the Keychain and reloaded network from Preferences. Tried scanning but that stops prematurely after picking up a network signal 15 stories up - 25% strength on AirRadar - my own airport is 50-60% on AirRadar. Airport is on Ch 13, neighbours are on 1 and 6.
    It's just blanking it like an ex after a bad break-up.
    Urgh.

    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • Running header and text variable help!

    I am trying to add a running header to a book I am creating but I cannot get the running header to work. I have read on the Adobe help pages and other sites online but still can't figure it out. I really just need a step by step on how to get this to work. I don't want to have to go through and edit the week number manually, but at this point I am getting frustrated. (Running CS5)
    The header is "Week X". (The week number changes every 5 pages.)
    This is what the running header should look like:
    This is what I get when I try: (Blank!)
    One time I got the "Week 1" to appear but it was in the large text style, not the smaller size. I forget what I did to get that, so now all I can make happen is the blank text field.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I haven't read the tutorial Prashant has mentioned twice, but it will probably help you. As he says, variables are basically pretty simple, though running head types are perhaps a bit more complex than some others.
    Basically, a variable is a marker, in the same way that an automatic page number is a marker, but in the case of the running head variables ID looks for text that matches a particular style (your choice, when you define the variable, of Paragraph Style or Character Style, and also whether it is the first instance or the last instance of that style on the page (again part of the definition) and ignores other matches that might also be present on your page. If no matching text is present on a particular page, ID searches backwards in the document to find a match on a previous page (which is why having  the matching text on only the first page of the section will work). Variables can pick up both visible and "invisible" or non-printing text which is handy if you need to have a match on a page, but don't want that text to appear in output except where it is displayed in the variable.
    Does that help?
    The advantage to using the variable here is that you can use the same master page (or two master pages or however many different masters are used in one complete section) for all of the sections instead of making separate masters with the new header or footer information for each section.

  • Why do text variables using Running Header character style translate forced returns as a word space in the running head on the first page but close up the space on subsequent pages?

    In an InDesign document that requires 3 different Chapter head paragraph styles (to cope with differrent length headings) I've set up the running heads on the master page with a text variable using the Running header (character style) option. The character style I've assigned to this is an empty character style that is applied to all 3 chapter head paragraph styles.
    Some chapter heads require a forced line break, so that the line breaks are aethesically pleasing. On the first page the text variable translates this forced line break as a word space in the running head, but on subsequent pages it ignores the forced line break. This means that if you have a word space before the forced line break, on the first page you get a double word space and on subsequent pages the running head sets correctly with a single word space. But if you remove the word space before the forced line break in the chapter head text, the first running head sets correctly with forced line break interpreted as a single word space, but on subsequest pages the space is closed up.
    This only seems to be a problem when the character style option is used for header text variables. If a paragraph style is used the forrced line break is interpreted as a a single word space in all instances, both on the foirst page and subsequent pages.
    This would appear to be a bug in how text variables are applied when using the Running header (character style) option. I can't see any other reason why the text variable would beheave differently on the first page and on subsequent pages. There is only one master page, so it isn't a case of their being an error between a main master page and a chapter opener master page.
    Does anyone have any solutionss, or know if this problem has been fixed in subsequent releases of InDesign (I'm using CS6 ID version 8.0)
    Thanks

    Ask in the ID forum...

  • Is there a way to allow for two lines in "running header (character style)" text variable?

    In my "running header (character style)" text variables, some of the items are quite long and take up more space in my header than I have room for - because I have another "running header (character style)" text variable beside it - and I am trying to figure out if there is a way to force that text variable to go into two lines when it runs out of space.
    Does anyone know if this is possible?

    Sadly, only by adding a forced line break in the variable. Adobe’s engineers are unable to allow long variables to break at the end of a line. Sad, since this is a feature I remember from a Macintosh word processor I used in 1988.

  • Any way to make a running header use the last used of 2 different styles?

    I have a book that has a different Chapter Name style dependent upon whether the chapter starts recto or verso. I wanted all the chapters to be in the same document, but I'd need to be able to have the header variable itself be variable.
    Thanks for any insight!

    Not with ID variables.

  • Will my books that i have bought and are in the ibook app will can i transfer them to an apple laptop

    the books that iv'e bought that are on the ibook app can they be transfer to an apple laptop

    You can copy them to your computer's iTunes library by connecting the iPad and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, or if they are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
    If you have OS X Mavericks on your laptop then you should have a built-in iBooks app on it so that you can read them on your Mac - in which case you can either do File > Move Books From iTunes in it after copying them from your iPad or redownloading them in iTunes, or go into the iBooks Store in the iBooks app (top left of the bookshelf) and redownload them directly in the app via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the Featured homepage

  • Report in SAP that shows me the fixed assets per vendor

    Hi,
    I have been asked to produce the following;
    Can I run a report in SAP that shows me the fixed assets per vendor?
    I need the detail of the depreciations (start and end date, purchase price, depreciation rate, methodu2026) and the fixed assets register (purchase amount, purchase date, vendor nameu2026)
    Could you kindly explain to me in simple steps what report I should run?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Alex

    Hi, there is no such report in SAP. You can develop your own, The main issue is that to get vendor for asset to which were issued material from storage. You can do it via batch(write down while purchasing to some field, or to find it via batch). Fir material for which batch management is not active it's not possible to, because you can buy one material from different vendors.
