Search for master page usage; better way to use master pages?

Hi all,
I am using Frame 9. I have my files set to always have an even number of pages. For chapters where the text ends on a right-hand page, I assign a custom master page to the final left-hand page -- this custom master page has our logo on it. However, because my files have a lot of conditional text (3 different versions of the publication  get generated from the same source files), the lengths of the chapters often change when switching between different conditional versions. So for example, for version 1, I assign the custom master page to the last page of the chapter, which is page 28. Then when I switch my conditional text settings to show version 2, the chapter is now 36 pages long, but my custom master page is still applied to page 28. I have to remove it from page 28 and reassign it to page 38. Here are my questions:
1) Is there a way to search for pages that have a specific master page applied? I hoped that I could generate a list of master page usage using the Special > List Of > References option, but apparently not.
2) Is there any way to get Frame to automatically assign my custom master page when it is appropriate, rather than doing it by hand for each conditional version of each chapter?
Thanks!

To identify master pages that control pages in body page view, create an identifier on each master page, as you'd create a watermark with text in a background text frame. Control its visibility with either a condition, or by assigning it a color that's invisible in a color view.

    Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
    searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
    it's a specific group of characters they're looking
    for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

  • Multiple file links in a single page: A better way to/efficient way to handle ?

    Aloha Everyone!
    I would like to ask the community how they have handled multiple file links in a single page. Sort of a pseudo database of files.
    Here is the webpage I have been working on:http://huichawaii.org/
    Here is what I have done to show files so far:
    old version:http://huichawaii.org/proceedings---2012-education%2c-math---engineering-technology.html
    new version: http://huichawaii.org/ahs2013-proceedings.html
    The website works best in Chrom or Firefox, still have to convert the flash header to an edge animate .
    Mahalo in advance for everyone's input!

    Depending on what other text you might have, you could use the data list component.
    To get the text to have underlines, you will need to edit the repeated item. You can also adjust colors and fonts as well. The default rollover and selected states will probably not be the UI that want, so make sure you change those as well.
    Now for the interactivity, select the datalist, and use the interactions panel, choose "On Select", then "Go To Url", the trick is to make sure the "When a specific item is selected" is also set. Here are the basic settings to get your links working:
    Add new interactions for each item you want to be functional.

  • Searching for shared files over a server network using a client computer

    I think spotlight can only be used to search for files on a local computer. Is there a way to search for shared files on a server from a logged in client computer?

    It should work on shared HFS volumes. You would have to start the search from the Finder, not from the Spotlight menu.

  • How can I search for files on an external file server (using Linux)?

    The configuration is that the mac min is connected (with other Windows XP computers) in an ethernet network. The file server is the only one running Linux. The mini mac has no problems to connect to the server and read the files, write files and create folders etc. But, because the file server is quite big, there are a lot of files and folders (size estimate in total some 350 GB). In a finder window I tried to seach a file name, but the mac does not give any result. The mouse cursor does not visibly change into occupied or so. Searching for a file on the mac is no problem as we know.
    Any help or hint what kind of program / setting needs to be used to do this would be appreciated.
    thanks
    Ueli

    Use the Find command (menu Edit) and in criteria at the right side is a plus sign to add another criteria and set it to your custom wishes.
    make a choice in results and you should be OK

    Like most I have used Acrobat reader for viewing PDF files for years.  I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from XP.  I have tried to search a PDF file for a word and it always comes up with none found even though I search for a word that is displayed in the document I'm looking at.  Any advice?

  • HT5569 My i-touch keeps searching for a wi-fi network where it use to connect and all my other apple devices still connect. I have reset, reload, off and on and off and on....what else could I try?

    My ipod touch just keeps searching for a wi-fi connection in my house where it use to connect automatically. My other apple devices still are connecting so not the wi-fi. I have reset to original settings, turned off-on-off-on... nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. (I think you did this)
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Searching for libary member usage

    Hello,
    I'm a pretty inexperienced with Flash, but am a Director
    expert. In
    Director there is a way to find out if a cast member is used
    in the score.
    In Flash, is there something similar? I mean is there a way
    to find out if a
    library member is used in a timeline? I'm trying to clear out
    unused
    resources and don't want to delete something that is being
    used.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Flash can do itself but only if you are using symbols on
    stage.
    To find unused library items:
    Do one of the following:
    Select Unused Items from the Library options menu.
    Sort library items by the Use Count column.
    NOTE: It is not necessary to delete unused library items to
    reduce a Flash document's file size because unused library items
    are not included in the SWF file. However, items linked for export
    are included in the SWF file.

  • One Apple ID that the whole family uses it, is ther a better way to use family sharing?

    My wife and I share the same apple ID on all of our apple devices (Mac-running Yosemite, Iphone 4s, Ipad), and my sons no have their own ipods and I want them to use the ID as well, but I am having trouble because I am getting txts and other messages when my sons send message to their friends.
    My sons are 9 & 6 so getting them and Apple Id is not appropriate at this time (or allowed).  Is there a way that I can set up a child account under our Apple ID?

    Hi Mdbarnharts, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your family members are using the same Apple ID to share purchases, and now you're receiving messages sent and received by your kids. 
    You can set up and manage Apple IDs for your children through the Family Sharing feature. 
    You can find more information about Family Sharing and setting up an Apple ID for your kids at these resources:
    Start or join a family group using Family Sharing - Apple Support
