Section markers and pages

Hi, I have a document which I've divided into sections (mainly for the purpose of putting different headers into each section). The problem is that whenever I add content to a page that overflows onto a new page, the section marker for the next section (the little down arrow above the page on the pages panel) doesn't move as well, forcing me to remove that section marker and make a new section marker on the next page where the beginning of that section was bumped to. Is there a way to get around this? Maybe I haven't set up my document/sections right?

Sounds like you want running heads that change according to the content on the page, instead of static section markers attached to the pages themselves. I didn't see a version number anywhere in this thread.
With ID CS3, Adobe added variables. The Running Header Variable will let you pick up the content of a paragraph or character style from text and display it in a running header. So, for instance, if you want your chapter title to display at the top of all left pages, you make a running header variable that references the chapter title paragraph style and put it on the left master page. Now at the beginning of each new chapter (or whenever you've used the chapter title paragraph style) the left running head will change.
Is that what you want?

Multiple section markers to pages for renumbering footnotes

I can able to add one section markers to any page. But if i try to add another section marker it is throwing the following error:
The error is: Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.

Sorry, I misunderstood.
You are correct -- it does not work as expected in CS3 either. This one-line javascript
app.activeDocument.sections.add(app.activeWindow.activePage);
works, but only if you start at the end of a document and go backwards. For some reason, I cannot insert a new section after an existing one (not counting the very first).

TOC and section markers

Can section markers that are added to a master page and updated with in a document be added to a TOC. I have created a paragraph style for section markers and added it to my TOC style but it will not show up when I create my TOC.

Thanks for your help Peter.
Maybe you can help me with my next question. Again my document is broken up in to sections and in each section I have photos that I would like to add figures to. I have figured out how to create the figures and have them cross referenced, but I would like to have my figure reference the section number like so (Fig. 1 – 1.0) and (Fig. 1 – 2.0). Is there a way to do this

Need help understandin section breaks or page breaks

Hi there, was hoping I can gain a better undersrtanding of how to use section breaks and page breaks.
I have typed several reports while using apple pages. I click on the VIEW button on upper left corner and all the pages appear to run continously. I do not want that to continue to happen. How can I make each and every page its own page. I have done it once years ago and have observed a this fine line below each page under the view option so that I may move or rearragne pages. Can someone please help?

Pages 5.1 only lets you delete Sections, you can't drag them into place.
You can Menu > Insert > Section Break on the bottom of every page or
Setup > Document > uncheck Document Body which will delete all yout content in teh Document Body
or Better still use Pages '09 which should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

How to change the header and footer in the Section Breaks Next Page using OpenXML?

I have a word document file in which I added a Section Break of Next Page, now I want to change the header and footer of that page.
Scenario of example, I have a doc file which has four pages with headers and footers and added fifth page in the section break next page, I want to change the header and footer of the fifth page only. This is achievable manually by deselecting the Link to Previous
button in the Word Application but I don't know how to change it using XML?
My code that adds the new page in the section breaks is:
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
string path = @"C:\Riyaz\sample.docx";
string strtxt = "Hello This is done by programmatically";
OpenAndAddTextToWordDocument(path,strtxt);
public static void OpenAndAddTextToWordDocument(string filepath, string txt)
using (DocX document = DocX.Load(@"C:\Riyaz\sample.docx"))
document.InsertSectionPageBreak();
Paragraph p1 = document.InsertParagraph();
p1.Append("This is new section");
document.Save();

Question already asked and answered several times.
It's a bug striking in long documents.
Select a word somewhere higher in the page then use the arrows to reach the wanted insertion point.

To be the AW6 successor, iWork MUST integrate a TRUE DB, not a list organizer !

Using iWork 09 Pages I need the first six pages of a document to not be counted as page numbers. I need the seventh page to be numbered as page one. I already know to have a section break between pages 6 and 7 and to use inspector "start at." Not working

In the book I'm formatting, the first page is the title page, the second page is the copyright page, the third through fifth pages are the table of contents, the sixth page is blank, then the text (which I want to number as page one) is the introduction. I have section breaks between the title page, the copyright page, the table of contents, and the introduction. Using the Inspector, Layout, Section, and selecting "Start at" 7 doesn't do anything!

Is is a bit tricky, but it works. On your 6th page (the blank one) go to Insert > Section Break. This will give you a 7th page. Then go to Inspector (blue circle with a white letter i in it) and go to Layout Inspector (2nd tab). Once in thee, go to Section. Check "Start at" and enter the number 1. Then ensure all other toons I there are unchecked.
Then go to Insert, and select Auto Page Numbers. You will find that your 7th page is numbered 1 as you want, but the first six pages will be numbered 1 to 6, which you don't want. But you can then delete the page numbering in that 1st section, leaving your 2nd section, beginning at page 7, numbered as page 1. You'll need to play around a bit as I did, and I would suggest using a test document to play with so you can undo any unwanted actions etc, but with tweaking around, it's doable. This took me ages to sort, so if it works for you, please give me the points :-)

TOC and Sections in a Page Layout document?

Is it possible to have a TOC and Sections in a Page Layout document?

Create a new, preceding document section, apart from your other document sections. Click in this empty document section, and then Insert > Table of Content > Document.

Generate TOC with Section Markers?

It's been a while since I've had to setup and create a TOC for a single file long document, but I'm pretty sure that I've created TOCs this way in the past. So, why won't the text in Section Markers show up in the TOC? Is it even possible to generate a TOC that has Section Marker text?
I'm using InDesign CS5 in Windows. I've got a single file document that I'm trying to generate a TOC for. I've designed a 16 page handbook in one inDesign file which includes a Cover page, TOC page, and seven "chapters".
I created separate sections for each "chapter" and used Section Markers at the top of the Master page for the chapter names. This is something I've done in the past for single file long documents with multiple chapters.
I've set the first page of each "chapter" as a new Section on the Pages panel. In the Numbering and Section Options for each page, I've checked Start Section, Automatic Page Numbering, Page Numbering Style: 1,2,3,4... and in Section Marker: I've put the "chapter" name in the text box.
I set up Paragraph and and Character Styles and used them throughout my document. When I set up the TOC I set up everything correctly, including my Section Marker style for the chapter names and a heading style that I used for all the sub headings in my file.
When I insert the TOC, the sub headings with their page numbers generate but the chapter headings which are Section Markers do not generate. Am I missing something or is it even possible to include the text for Section Markers in a TOC? I'm sure that it's worked in the past. Can anyone offer a solution for this?
thanks,
Kat

awesome! ...worked like a charm. I knew I was forgetting something.

How do I get my sections using two-page spreads to start on the right side of the spread?

(I use Indesign CC 2014, on Windows 7)
My book has multiple sections.
Each section is a separate file.
All pages use 2up master pages.
If all sections had an even number of pages, there would be no issue. But some end on a left page (left side page of spread).
Therefore, some sections needs to start their first page on the right side of spread.
I need to output PDFs for production, and due to content fluctuation the quantity of pages in each spread is random.
Do I have to manage whether each section starts on the left or right of the spread manually?
Here's an example:
Once the PDF is output, I need the first page of Section 2 to automatically be where the pink rectangle is.
Instead, the last page of Section 1 and the first page of Section 2 both use the left facing page of my 2up master pages.

FYI, in western left-to-right-reading languages, books are expected to be numbered with odds on the right and evens on the left. If you want to start a new section on a left page after a section that ends on a left page, what most people would do is add a blank right page. You will often see such a page labeled something like "This page has been intentionally left blank." or maybe just an ornament to show that it wasn't a misprint. That is preferred to numbering a left page with an odd number.

TS4213 Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?

Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?
Examples of what is going on:
1. In Pages, Numbers & Keynote, when I go to the media browser the Audio section reads "Open iTunes to populate this list" even after iTunes has been opened, .xml file has been replaced/repaired, etc AND Photo section reads "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list" even after iPhoto Library has been replaced and new default library created.
2. In iMovie, similar thing ... when I go to add photos or music to a movie the iTunes files aren't present and the iPhoto photos are missing with similar messages as in #1.
3. In iPhoto, similar thing ... when I go to add music to a slideshow it says to "Open iTunes to populate this list".
It is shocking to me that Apple would let something as simple as a pathway link to associated library files get this messed up on an upgrade, but what's even more surprising is that with the number of people who seem to be having this particular issue (and I can tell from all the research that I've done for weeks online that there are a lot of them) that there doesn't seem to be a single clear answer to fixing it anywhere on these community support forums. Most of what I've seen is rehashed advice from outdated issues. What I need is a simple answer to how do we get these programs to look for the correct location of the photo and music files because I sure can't seem to find any logical place to do that through the programs' preferences files or the system preferences window?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Here's the details on the software/hardware:
MacBook Pro
Mac OS X
Version 10.7.5
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
iTunes 11.0.4 (4)
iPhoto '11 9.4.3 (720.91)
iMovie '11 9.0.9 (1795)
Keynote '09 5.3 (1170)
Pages '09 4.3 (1048)
Numbers '09 2.3 (554)

I have the same problem on a new MacBook Pro. I have not been able to access the iTunes library from iPhoto since I got this computer. I looked in the Preferences file and deleted the com.apple.iApps.plist but there was no com.apple.iApps.lockfile so I just deleted the iAPPs.plist and rebooted the computer. Still no iTunes available in iPhoto.
All my music is in iTunes and plays. After reading the above I brought up Pages and I was able to access music and insert a track into a document.
Do you have any suggestions.

What are the parameters "page-forward" and "page-backward" used for?

In the LIMITS section of the Netscape Calendar Server configuration
documentation, there are two parameters called "page-forward" and
"page-backward." The default setting for these parameters is FALSE. However,
it is unclear what these parameters are used for.
<P>
With previous versions of Calendar Server, you could scroll one page forward
or one page backward through the user search screens. However, with the
implementation of LDAP in later versions, the options have been disabled in
the client.
<P>
Although the page-forward and page-backward parameters are documented in the
Administrator guides for Calendar Server versions 3.5 and 4.0, the guides
state that the default value of FALSE for both parameters cannot be
changed. In actuality, the parameters can be changed. However, the reason
that users should not change these parameters is that versions 3.5 and 4.0
do not support the page-forward and page-backward capabilities. So to avoid
errors, please do not change these parameters from the default value of FALSE.

if AdobeRGB is the more professional working space, then why not use that profile?
on the web (and in unmanaged and broken work flows) sRGB is the safest profile (source space)
just open your tagged Adobe RGB and tagged ProPhoto RGB document (use the embedded profile in each document)
and go to View> Proof Setup: Monitor RGB (notice the loss in saturation? that's how most of the people on the Internet will be viewing your color, assuming you have a standard-gamut monitor like most people)
always CONVERT to sRGB for the World Wide Web
i didn't read your link
anyone who recommends "disable color management in Photoshop" -- set Working RGB to "Monitor RGB" -- AND MOST UNBELIEVABLY -- "Don't color manage this document" (ignore embedded profiles) ------ is pretty mixed up (in my opinion)
i will recommend reading JEFF SCHEWE and BRUCE FRASER for professional color management information

EXTREMELY S-L-O-W text entry in some sections of a Pages 5.2 document

Hello -
I have recently bumped into a problem with Pages 5.2 (the most recent version) whereby at certain points in the document text entry becomes extraordinarily slow. In these sections, It takes 1/4 to 1/2 second per character for text to appear. I can type an entire paragraph and watch it appear on screen in slow motion, which obviously makes it close to impossible to work in these sections.
The odd thing about this behavior is that it does not occur at all points in the document. It is not, repeat not, document-wide. Furthermore, I believe it to be related to cut-and-paste issues from either Safari or Preview, but there are some sections where I have cut and pasted that do exhibit this behavior.
This document exhibits the same issues whether I open it on my Mac Mini or on my MBA via Pages using iCloud. Pages for iCloud (beta) does not exhibt these issues, but it is too limited for me to use as my main document creation tool. The document also exhibits the same issues when saved locally and opened via the hard drive of either machine.
I have done the following, to no avail:
Deleted the style of text applied to the slow sections and applied "default" formatting;
Turned off "check spelling while typing" and "check spelling automatically;"
Turned on invisible characters to see if any code was inserted into these sections;
Deleted ALL formatting in the document, turning it into one giant stream-of-consciousness text;
Cut and paste text into a new Pages document;
Exported to Word 2011 and re-importing.
Only (6) allowed me to type normally when in Word. But when I re-opened the document in Pages, the molasses-slow sections were still there.
I'd be happy to hear any suggestions the community has. This is a draft article I am working on and it's tough to focus on my ideas when I'm dogged by these formatting issues.
Thanks!

An interesting note from "iWork"
Hello there,
We have heard about your issue from the discussion thread below:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6305248?tstart=0
We would like to know if you would be able to provide the following:
- OSX and Pages versions
- is iCloud file sync On for Pages
- copy of a document that shows the slow issue with Pages
- detals about workflow before the slow issue happened with Pages
- is the file stored on the local hard drive or on a network serfer
- are any apps, downlaods or backups in progress when Pages is open
Thank you,

I'd be more inclined to trust this if there weren't spelling and grammar errors in the reply. I'm surprised they didn't ask for a credit card and/or SSN!

Precompile and page-check-seconds elements not working in 9.2

Hi,
          I am coming across a very wierd error, and was wondering if anyone could help. We have a plain struts webapp deployed on weblogic 9.2.2, and i am trying to improve performance by adding the <precompile> and <page-check-seconds> tags to the weblogic.xml. Here is the relevant section:

          <precompile>true</precompile>
          <page-check-seconds>-1</page-check-seconds>
          </jsp-descriptor>
          However, when the server starts up, I get the following error saying the precompile and page-check-seconds are not allowed:
