Space Before/After Not Refreshing in Paragraph Palette

Hi, I'm using Illustrator CS4 and am frustrated that in the paragraph palette, when I select text with specific settings for space before or space after, these values do not refresh to what is applied to the text. The values just remain at the last setting that I input or something. So I have no way of determining what the space before or space after is on different chunks of type. And if I try to adjust the settings up or down (using the arrows), it will jump to whatever setting is displayed (which is not what is actually applied to the type.
- Has anyone else ever experienced this behavior?
- Any workarounds?
- Any other ways to detect the actual values applied to the text?
THANKS! Very frustrating bug.

are you selecting the text Frame? if the palette shows the last used settings it means the whole textFrame has no custom spacing applied. If you see nothing, it means mixed settings.
you need to place the cursor inside a paragraph in order to be picked up by the palette.

  • Space before/after tables

    Is there any way to eliminate the space before/after consecutive tables? I don't want to combine the tables, but would like them to appear as if my multiple tables are one. The problem now is that when you place two tables next to each other (inline) there is a 1/8" gap between the tables.
    I have tried adjusting font preferences, but the only thing that changes is the text inside the table.

    I'm afraid you have only the two choices. I imagine the reason for the spacing is to preserve the separateness of multiple tables and prevent accidental "collisions" and overlapping. You can always ungroup, rearrange, and regroup. When we want to do unusual things it's often with the penalty of extra work.

  • How to remove line space before/after paragraph in Photoshop Elements?

    I am using Elements 12 and want to remove the extra spacing that is automatically inserted between paragraphs after a hard return.  Is there some way to adjust the extra spacing before/after a paragraph in Elements?

    Try resetting the tool (the little arrow next to four lines in the Text Options panel). Setting the leading manually works fine for me in PSE12 with hard carriage returns,

  • Increase / decrease the space before / after a table -

    Hi all,
    I have not found any shortcuts which, after you select a table, modify the space before or after.
    Does anyone have an idea? Otherwise, an early idea for a [JS]?
    Thank you in advance! 

    According to the instruction, I closed InDesign and re opened it then immediately hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift, but there is no dialog window pop up. I did this a few times.
    Then I tried to do it manually by deleting InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData. But in the folder (Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\<Version #>\<language>\ ) I can see InDesign Defaults but no InDesign SavedData. I deleted InDesign Defaults anyway, re opened InDesign, nothing changed.

  • White spaces before and after Images

    I have several images in my FM document,
    They are either gif or jpg.
    All set in Anchored frames, left-aligned.
    I have made most of them conditional for Online help, so they
    dont show up in my Online help.
    My issue is I am not sure how to remove all the space that
    appears before and after the images (they are not displayed because
    I have set it to conditional)
    I remember somewhere that the spaces for such images can be
    removed.
    Please let me know if there is.

    Hi,
    Thanks for replying.
    I have removed the spaces before and after the images in
    Frame.
    Set the images to be conditional (only for print). If there
    are any images they are in anchored frame--left aligned.
    So my problem is that the space before - after and the place
    where the image originally was (now not displayed as it is
    conditional) have these huge white spaces displayed.
    I am not sure how to map them or how to delete them.
    I am familiar in FM, and Robohelp (although i have worked
    with Word only and it was easy). For some reason this seems too
    hard.
    Hope I have gotten across to you with my question.

  • 5.2 Pages, how to create white space before and after paragraphs?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having a very frustrating time with the new 5.2 version of pages after upgrading from a prior version. In the previous version, you could easily adjust the exact amount of white space before and after each paragraph. You were able to do this from within the inspector, but for the life of me, I cannot find it ANYWHERE in the new version and I'm ripping my hair out trying to find it.
    Surely you must be able to control the amount of space before and after each paragraph? It's totally useless to me if I can't; I want to be able to format my documents how I want; ie. plenty of white space between paragraphs and list points, not all bunched up together.
    Someone please help me! Thank you so much!

    Try telling Apple that. Start by rating/reviewing Pages in the App Store.
    I have been told repeatedly by Apple staff that the new User Interface makes it "Much simpler".
    When I ask how? …and point out how many (more) hidden steps there are, they don't want to talk anymore.
    Apple's standard response to just about everything lately, unfortunately.
    btw If you have the choice, use Pages '09 instead. Less buggy and way more features, better laid out.

  • "Space Before" Paragraph after Page Break

    Hello,
    Here is what I am observing : the "Space Before" setting for paragraph styles is ignored if the paragraph is placed after a page break or on a disconnected page. How do I force InDesign to honour my "Space Before" setting ?
    I give you an example : I've created a paragraph style called "Big Title". I've applied this style to section titles and to the index title. I want to lower "Big Title" a few centimeters from the page top, but my "Space Before" setting is ignored. What to do ?

    You can force space above a paragraph by creating a non-printing character in the first line of the paragraph, or above it. Two possibilities:
    * Add a reference-page frame above paragraph to the paragraph format, using the Advanced panel of the paragraph designer.
    * Add autonumbering to the paragraph. Set the autonumber format character to a thin space. Create a character format for the autonumber; set its point size tall enough to create the space above. This has the gotcha of indenting the first line by the width of the thin space.
    For either of these solutions, check that the space above setting for the format doesn't upset your workaround; if necessary, change the space above to let the workaround manage it.

    The Abacus (which appeared in the sixteenth century) was the
    first calculator. In the middle of the seventeenth century
    Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, built and sold gear-
    driven mechanical machines which performed whole number
    addition and subtraction. (Yes, the language Pascal is named
    for him.)
    Later in the seventeenth century a German mathematician
    Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz built the first mechanical
    device designed to do all four whole number operations:
    addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The
    state of mechanical gears and levers at that time was such
    that the Leibniz machine was not very reliable.
    It wasn't until the nineteenth century that the next major
    step was taken, this time by a British mathematician.
    Charles Babbage designed what he called his analytical
    engine. His design was too complex for him to build with the
    technology of his day, so his design was never implemented.
    His vision, however, included the important components of
    today's computers. His design was the first to include a
    memory so that intermediate values did not have to be re-
    entered. His design also included the input of both numbers
    and mechanical steps on a type of punched card developed in
    the late eighteenth century by Joseph Jacquard to be used
    with a mechanical loom.
    Ada Agusta, Countess of Lovelace, was a most romantic figure
    in the history of computing. Ada, the daughter of Lord Byron
    (the English poet), was herself quite a mathematician. She
    became interested in Babbage's work on the analytical engine
    and extended his ideas (and corrected some of his errors).
    Ada is credited with being the first programmer. The concept
    of the loop--a series of instructions that repeat--is
    attributed to her. Ada, the language used by the Department
    of Defense, is named for her.
    During the later part of the nineteenth century and the
    beginning of the twentieth century advances were made
    rapidly. William Seward Burroughs produced and sold a
    mechanical adding machine (that worked!). Dr. Herman
    Hollerith developed the first electro-mechanical tabulator
    which used a punched card. Data was represented by holes
    punched on the card in certain positions. Descendants of
    this card are still in use today. Dr. Hollerith formed a
    company that is known today as IBM.
    In 1936 a theoretical development took place that had nothing
    to do with hardware per se but profoundly influenced the
    field of Computer Science. Alan M. Turing, another British
    mathematician, invented an abstract mathematical model called
    a Turing machine, laying the foundation for a major area of
    computing theory.. The most prestigious award given in
    Computer Science (equivalent to the Fielding Medal in
    Mathematics or a Nobel Prize in other sciences) is the Turing
    Award, named for Alan Turing. A current Broadway play deals
    with his life. Analysis of the capabilities of Turing
    machines is a part of the theoretical studies of all Computer
    Science students.
    By the outbreak of World War II, several computers were under
    design and construction. The Harvard Mark I and the ENIAC
    are two of the more famous machines of the era. John von
    Neumann (an American mathematician this time) who had been a
    consultant on the ENIAC project started work on another
    machine known as EDVAC which was completed in 1950. In 1951
    the first commercial computer, UNIVAC I, was delivered to the
    Bureau of the Census.
    Von Neumann is credited with the development of two very
    important concepts. The first is that the instructions that
    operate the machine should be stored in the machine along
    with the data to be operated on. The second is that data
    (and instructions) should be represented in the binary number
    system rather than the decimal number system.
    The general organization of a computer has remained constant
    over the last 40 years. This organization or architecture is based
    on the ideas of von Neumann and bears his name. The
    essence of this architecture is sequentiality. That is,
    instructions (a program) are stored in sequential memory
    locations in binary form and are executed in sequence, one
    after the other.

    Each paragraph is terminated in your text file by a newline character. So effectively what scanner.readLine() is doing is reading a paragraph of text.
    1. Read paragraph into String (readLine())
    2. Print or prefix 5 spaces to String.
    3. Print 5x newline character

  • Layout Break Space Before Paragraph

    I am using a layout break in pages. I have a heading style with a background fill on my paragraph. I have a before paragraph space of 14. If I place the heading style right after a layout break (at the top of the new layout section) it eats my before paragraph space. Seems like a bug but I thought I would ask if anyone has a solution or workaround.
    Thanks
    Chris

    It may not be completely intuitive, but that is how it is supposed to work. Space before and space after apply between paragraphs in a layout section but not at the beginning or end of a layout section or at the beginning or end of a page. It is sort of like the way the last character in a word can be right against the margin and yet the next line does not have to start with a space; the area outside the margins can "count" for this kind of white space. A layout break works like a margin here, even if it is in the middle of a page (and not necessarily preceded by white space).
    If you are producing a multipage document, you normally want the tops of the text blocks of each page to line up at the margin, not jump up and down if one page happens to start with a new paragraph that has a space before set.
    To deal with your situation with needing the white space at the beginning of a new layout section, with the cursor in that section, use the Layout pane of the Inspector to set the "Before" margin of that section to, for example, 14 pts.

  • Master-Detail Detail does not refresh after it's been empty

    I have a master detail page (both are tables) that works just fine, until I click a master record that has no details.
    After that the panelHeader of teh detail is refreshed with the PPT but the table underneath it is not, I keep seeing "no rows yet", no matter which master record I click.
    When I go to a different page and return it's fine again.
    Only one of my pages has this behavior, I tested this on another and it was fine. Has anyone seen this behavior before?
    My console has this message:
    May 11, 2007 10:52:38 AM oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.model.binding.FacesCtrlRangeBinding$FacesModel getSelectedRow

    Wendy Tromp

    Ok I found it,
    My details iterator had the following properties:
    <iterator id="AfdelingMedewerkersIterator" RangeSize="-1"
    Binds="AfdelingMedewerkers"
    DataControl="PRBAppModuleDataControl"
    Refresh="IfNeeded" RefreshCondition="#{!adfFacesContext.postback}" />
    I have no idea why I set it like that, but removing the Refresh properties fixed my problem.
    I am still clueless as of why this led to the behavior as described above. I could have understood it if my iterator was not refreshed at all, but I have no idea why it stopped working only after the details were empty and not a second before...
    Anyway, problem solved!

    If you restrict the selection, a record value outside of that selection is not acceptable and will give you this error. This is how BPS works.
    You need to restrict on some other char so BASIC1 doesn't come in, but this value should be part of any selection on ZSEGMENT field for it to be accepted back.

  • Manual rebate condition exclusion not refreshed after redetermination of it

    Hi Experts.
    I am working with CRM 4.0.
    Lately, we realized there is an error occurring in the price deternination:
    The condition exclusion for manual rebate condition is not refreshed after redetermination of the product. There is missing a price validation before saving the document with the new product.
    Step-to-step description of the error:
    1)     I am creating an order in trx. CIC0 or CRMD_BUS2000115 and determine the product (sector A).
    2)     Now I assign a manual rebate (condition Z...) of 20 % on item level.
    3)     On header level I replace the product to one of another sector (B).
    4)     I check the pricing conditions of the new product on item level. The same rebate of 20 % is maintained.
    This is an error, because the condition exclusion for products of sector B allows rebates only until 5 %.
    Can anybody help me, please.
