Script for changing InCopy assignment locations globally

I have a book with multiple documents with hundreds of separate stories. I need a script to change the assignment locations globally within the ID document to a single folder. As it stands now, I can only change them one by one using their individual Assignment Options dialogue box in ID. Also, it would be nice to also be able to change the "Assigned to" field to a specific set of person(s).
Someone had written a script a while back for ID2 that did just this but I can't seem to locate it. Not sure it would work with CS3.
Anyone have any ideas?

As Andbrowny asked, have you tried using OS X's Locations? See KB 106653, Using network locations in Mac OS X.
If that doesn't give you the power that you need, checkout Location X.

Scripts for changing the address of the user when they have been in the box for 6 months
If users are in a folder for deactivated users and disabled users in Active Directory, and been there for 6 moths do: change email address in exchange to existing email address.old
Anyone have suggestions on how I can go about it?

What is this "box"? What is this "folder" you're asking about? You'll likely get a better answer if you use standard terminology.

Ran CATT Script for the role assignment to users

Hi All,
I have ran ECATT script for doing role assignment in QAS and completed successfully. I did this through CUA. What is the next step after running catt script? Do I need to doing anything with PFUD in each child system? Because I checked in the child systems many derived single roles are not generated in QAS.(RED). Is it because of running catt script or it might have came like that only from development? Please advise..
Regards,
Masood

Hi,
I have told you why the error message is there. What do you not understand about the resolution? Your parent roles are out of sync with the child roles so you need to re-sync them. An example of how do do this is to "adjust derived" from the master role. Only when you have done this will your roles be in sync again.

Full points for the answer

It seems there there is no problem with my FireFox 7.0.1 on my Mac OSX 10.7.2. So, maybe you can solve the problem by updating your OS. The only minor problem here is that Firefox doesn't display in the Tibetan fonts that you choose, it always display in Kailas font for Tibetan.

Is there a script for changing layer names in ID CS4?

I have multiple documents with an average of 20 layers in each. Each of the layers is named for the expiration date of the coupon in the ads. When a new order comes in I retrieve the previous files and change the dates via scripts and the Find/Change option. I have looked but cannot find a way to rename the dates in the layers as well.
Does anyone know of a script for this?
Thanks in advance!

Script for changing tif links to jpeg

Hi,
I have a file linked to a bunch of tifs. I've run a script in PS converting those images to jpeg. I could manually change each link, but I'd much rather use a script to go through my doc and convert my link urls from *.tif to *.jpg
Has anyone come across a script for this? and if not, I can build one, but I'm having trouble finding the InDesign Scripting Reference pdf. Can someone point me in the direction?
Thanks,
Stan

I attached a new version of the script, but I haven't properly tested it yet.
Is there a repository of InDesign scripts online somewhere? if there isn't there oughtta be....
Here is Scriptopedia by Loik.
I started a new page on my site where I want to post scripts for download and links to scripts on other sites, sorted by categories.
There are loads of scripts on InDesign Exchange, but some of them are quite outdated — it takes ages to post scripts there.

FrameMaker 8 (Unstructured) - How to Find/Change "Referenced File" location globally?

Hello,
First off, I have a FrameMaker 8 (Unstructured) book that links ALL of its graphics, to a separate graphics folder on my network drive.
With that said, I am hoping to do the following:
1. Create a mirror copy of "Book A" and place that copy in another folder, (at the same level) on my network drive.
2. Open up the new book file (e.g. Book B).
3. Run a Find/Change to replace:
..\..\..\Graphics Catalog A\Graphics\a000123.png
..\..\..\Graphics Catalog B\Graphics\b000123.png
The end result is that I could globally map out all the "Referenced Files" to the new folder path structure. This will allow me to save from having to manually re-import each of the 1000 graphics - into my book files.
Finally, I am hoping to do this with the built in capabilities of FrameMaker 8 first. If that is not possible, then I will consider other possibilities.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Regards,
Jim

This is how you do it:
Outside of FM, copy the "Book A" folder and paste it where you want.
Also, create the Graphics folder and file structure (i.e.
"... Graphics Catalog B\Graphics ...")
Before you open Book B in FM, temporarily rename the graphics
folder that the FM files in Book A uses, e.g. "Graphics Catalog Z".
Now, when you open the files in Book B, FM won't be able to find
the old graphics since the folder name has changed. For each file,
FM will open the "Missing graphics" dialog, where you need to
browse to the new graphics folder, e.g. "Graphics Catalog B\Graphics".
Select the correct file that FM asks for, and tick the option to
use this folder for all remaining graphics.
If all the image file names are identical, you will only need to
do this once per FM file. If you really need the image file names
to differ like you said:
> ..\..\..\Graphics Catalog A\Graphics\a000123.png
> ..\..\..\Graphics Catalog B\Graphics\b000123.png
then you need to select the correct file name for *each* graphics
that FM cannot find. This is a good reason to keep the file names
identical, even though the folder name has changed.
When all the files have opened, rename the original graphics folder
back to "Graphics Catalog A".

Html scripts for changing texts

does anyone have an html snippet code for flashing text like on the hot news headlines at the bottom of the apple home page - i have located scrolling text - but not flashing, or changing text? thanks

I just posted javascript snippet couple days ago to rotate images:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7079863&#7079863
The same method can be used for text head liners, however it's depend on how the head liners are supplied.
If you have to supply the head lines, you are on your own; you'll have to update them.
or you can use some ready made such as BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/ifsnews/hi/frontpage/ticker.stm
or you can use webclip, webclip makes part of a web page into Dashboard widget, then process Dashboard code into HTML code. Anyway, here is Apple header liners in webclip: http://hdl.50webs.com/Dashboard/Widgets.html

Script for changing objects presence based on amount range

Hello,
Is there a way to change an objects presence (either a field or a subhead) based on the entered amount range in a numeric field?
For example:
-The numeric field amount entered is a range between 1 and 49,999, then "Signature Subhead 1" appears.
-The numeric field amount entered is a range between 50,000 and 250,000, then "Signature Subhead 2" appears.
Etc.
Any advice for this script would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Bruce,
Your solution worked perfectly. If I was to expand the ranges (let's say to three ranges), would I just have to add another "case this" logic section such as this?
switch (true)
case this.rawValue >= 1 && this.rawValue <= 49999:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "visible";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
break;
case this.rawValue >= 50000 && this.rawValue <= 249999:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "visible";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
break;
case this.rawValue >= 250000 && this.rawValue <= 500000:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "visible";
break;
default:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
Appreciated,
Eric

Need to find a scripts for changing default "Open with" iTunes app to Quick

Hello all...
I'm new to scripting but need a script really quickly...
I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a script that will change the default "Open with" of audio files placed within a certain folder on my desktop...
I'm making sound clips with WireTap and dumping them in a folder called WireTapExports as .mp3. I then need to play them without using iTunes (and importing them by default) but going into the "Get Info" and manualy changing the "Open With" settings for each file is taking ages...and it's very irratating...
Is there a way I can make all audio file put in that folder automaticaly open with Quicktime instead.
I know this is quite easy to most but I've only just started looking at Applescript (i.e. a few days ago) and but I need this to work now...
Many thanks in advance...
PigeonCake...

Not what you want, but if you hold the control key while getting info it changes to summary info which then lets you change the preferred application on a batch of files in one go.

Scripts for changing metadata in Bridge or CC ?

A client of me wants to copy the filename of an image into a certain field in the Metadata, so that they can change the filename to another filename, so they can keep the original filename as reference.
I know it's possible to do this manually in Bridge, but speaking of thousands pictures, this should be done with a script...
Thanks for input

Script for changing individual folio colors

Hi,
I have a designer creating a 400+ page book where each page number is a different CMYK color based on the light spectrum (ROYGBIV). Is there a script out there that will apply a color to each page folio determined by a user's defined page range and beginning and ending of the spectrum? Thus, hypothetically, a user could assign Red (M100Y100) to Yellow (Y100) for pages 1-100 and Yellow to Green (C100Y100) for pages 101-250 and then go from Green to Red from pages 251-400.
Thanks!
