Script to auto kern after typing
Hello all ! I am curious is it feasible to create a script that will automatically kern specific letter pairings after typing them?
I've been scouring the forum and found something like it here Scripted custom kerning tables | Peter Kahrel.
What I would like is to be able to type and whenever one of the 29 letter combinations that need to be kerned occurs the script will auto kern it
Any thoughts or help to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks all in advance!
you can't set specific kern values in character styles
@Peter – there were times you could save specific kern values in character styles.
If I remember it right, it could be done in InDesign CS3 and CS4 (maybe also in CS2).
However in CS5 and above that wouldn't be possible.
Also: Exported IDML files from CS4 and opened with CS5 and CS5.5 lost that value.
See the following German discussion about kerning and character styles here in the InDesign Scripting Forum of hilfdirselbst.ch:
Zeichenformat mit benutzerdefiniertem Kerningwert per Skript anlegen - Adobe InDesign Skriptwerkstatt - HilfDirSelbst.c…
My conclusion:
One can still work around that problem, but it will require scripting of IDMS snippet files (to change some properties of character styles there!) and place that edited snippets in InDesign.

Stop auto-capitalization after i.e. or e.g.
anyone have an idea how to stop auto-capitalization after typing "i.e." or "e.g."?
I would like to retain the auto-capitalization for starting sentences.
Thanks!I don't see that behavior on my Mac.
Really? So in Pages > Preferences > Autocorrection, you have the box for Fix Capitalization checked, and when you type something like " i.e. the" you do not wind up with" i.e. The" as soon as you hit the space key? -
When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, probably remembered password and login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.
Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox -

I have (sorry forgot to add that). I was switched around and finally I was told I would be put through to a supervisor but after being on hold for about 10 minutes the phone went dead, I did not lose connection so I do not know if I was hung up on or there was some technical difficulty. I called again yesterday and did in fact speak with a supervisor for Account Security but he told me he did not know why it was happening and put me through to a different number but that ended up not being any helpful either. That's when I decided to give it a shot on here!

How to auto capitalize after a period in text field
Is there a way to make a text field auto capitalize after a period if the user has forgotten. I am currently using LiveCycle Designer ES4
Try putting the following in the exit event of your text field:
this.rawValue=this.rawValue.replace(/(^\w{1}|\.\s*\w{1})/gi, function(a){return a.toUpperCase();});

When composing an email in Mac Mail I've noticed a small but very irritating bug: pressing the spacebar after typing an apostrophe in a word, e.g. "we're", the cursor moves to the left i.e. backwards, and not to the right, effectively deleting a space and not creating one.
Any ideas?I just recreated this problem on my iMac (wired KB, no wireless KB) by changing Mail > Preferences > Composing > Spellcheck from "as I type" to "never". Then type a contraction ending in 're and the space bar causes the cursor to jump back as others have stated, to the spot 'r|e
Next, I went into System Preferences > Keyboard > Text, and turned off "use smart quotes" and the problem went away again.
From this point (smart quotes off, spell checking never), if I turn Smart Quotes ON, the problem returns.
The problem is dependent on the state of both settings.
The spacebar in Mail "works" if I have either of the following setting combinations:
Keyboard: smart quotes OFF, Mail: check spelling ANY SETTING
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: check spelling AS I TYPE
Other combinations FAIL
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check spelling NEVER
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check Spelling WHEN I CLICK SEND
Looks to me like there's a bug in Mail > Preferences > Check spelling > NEVER and WHEN I CLICK SEND that interacts badly with Keyboard > Smart quotes ON.
Thanks.

Auto answer after a few rings?
I use to have a phone that had the autoanswering option in the setting while hooked to a headset. It would be very convenient on the IPhone cause I have a telecom system for my motorcycle and i'd like my IPhone to auto answer after a few rings.
Any idea how-to do that if possible?
Thanks.It's not possible. that's not a feature of the iPhone OS.

I-Tunes Auto-Restart After Closing Program
My i-Tunes began automatically restarting when I close the window on my desktop. It is pretty annoying.
It only restarts after I have had it open. If I have not opened i-tunes it behaves. But, if I open i-Tunes to listen to music on by desktop, and then close the program when I am done, it will restart within 10-seconds.
I am using Windows 7 and i-Tunes 10.2.2.12
I can't find a solution and sfter 15-minutes of trying to find a link to submit a help request, I gave up and am trying this avenue.
Thanks
Walt
PS: In the Product selection below, i-Tunes is not one of them. Hope this gets where it needs to go.Thanks!
Shall I create de novell partition on the new\replaced HD?
Will Novell recreate the mirrored volumes automatically or shall I rebuild them manually?

Yes. FATFS.NLM tries to mount all FAT partitions it finds, not just the
boot partition. So any problem FAT partition may cause trouble.

This sounds like your disk is physically broken. As a short term solution,
you can probably delete the DOS partition on D: but not create it again.
That way, FATFS.NLM will not try to fix the broken part of your disk. Of
course, you should as soon as possible replace your disk.
For this, you should first create and copy your DOS partition manually on
the new disk and then start your server and use NSSMU.NLM to manage the
mirroring of the NetWare partition(s).

VPN auto startup after power cut
Good evening
I have set my server to auto start after a power outage. What I would like is have the vpn startup. So the server is auto logging in as a certain user, and then the user has a auto startup item. The server Admin.
The issue is that the server admin needs to you to bring the window to the foreground in order for the vpn to startup.
Is there another way to do this?Does it power back on after a power outage? auto-boot only covers the boot after the server powers on or is reset. I don't see an option in OpenBoot for auto power on after a power interruption.

How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?
How do I stop Quicktime player from auto-launching after I've exported a movie from iMovie 10?
It's really annoying for Quicktime player to auto-lauch!It may not be that simple David. They're using a "server" and some of the Apache software may want to launch QuickTime at boot.
This isn't really a QuickTime question. It's a sever question best answered in those Discussion pages. -
