Splitting up text at line breaks into separate text objects

creating a map with many text objects each containing one village name etc. or sth similar it would be nice if we could
- type all names with enter/linebreaks
- and then choose something like 'create separate text objects for each text line'
I know I could convert the start text into outlines and then individually placing/moving them, but I still want to be able to edit all texts in one go (e.g. changing font size, colour, etc.)

Beate,
Since you mentioned a map, you can also do it this way:
1. Count the paragraphs in your text.
2. Select the text object containing the lines of text. Copy or Cut it to the Clipboard.
3. LineTool: Draw a horizontal line.
4. AltShiftDrag a copy of the line downward. Transform Again (Ctrl D) until you have as many lines as you had paragraphs.
5. Text tool: Hover over the topmost line. Click when you see the Type On A Path cursor. Paste.
6. Drag a selection marquee across all the lines. Type>ThreadedText>Create.
7. Type>ThreadedText>RemoveThreading.
Now you have a bunch of indiviudal text objects, but they are already Type On A Path objects; so you can drag them into position on your map, and then directselect their paths to edit their shapes (assuming you want pathType objects to bend along roads, etc.)

  • How to protect a text from line break in smartforms

    Hi Gurus,
    How to protect line break in a text element of smartforms. Text in that line is printing exactly 70 characters. I want the text to be printed fully till the size of the window.  How to stop this automatic line break.
    Regards,
    Rithika.

    What I have done may be helpful, so here are the details:
    I had a table of text values, so I converted this to a string with concatenate, then string to a long character field, then used RKD_WORD_WRAP to put into table of 132 characters.  Then I constructed a table of type tline by looping at my RKD_WORD_WRAP output,  and utilized SAVE_TEXT to temporarily store a TEXT entry, like you would save with SO10, saving my desired paragraph format into TDFORMAT field and inserting any necessary character format commands into the text. 
    In my SmartForm, I then have dynamic text processing pointing to the internal table fieldnames containing tdname, tdid, tdobject, tdspras of what I saved.  This allows SmartForms to utilize the full width of the window and optimize text output, based on window width, font, scale, paragraph format, character format, etc.  These text identifier values are passed as part of my internal table via the SmartForms interface.
    At the end of SmartForms processing, I loop at my internal table and utilize DELETE_TEXT to remove the temporary texts that I created for this set of output.
    To avoid page breaks in my text, I put my output for a "block" of data into a folder (see the SmartForms folder feature).  I have page protection on the folder...that way, SmartForms examines the length of the folder content and decides whether a page break should occur before any output for my block of data begins.  My block of data contains a few data elements over 5 rows of output followed by two separate dynamic texts of various lengths.  If the entire block won't fit on the remaining part of a page, page-break occurs first.

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.

  • How to put line break in the text

    Hi guys,
    This is a simple problem.i don't know how to concat a line break while creating a text.
    I am looping through the results of a query and want to form the text using the results.
    For each row of the resultset,I want to create a new line in the text i create.
    I was wondering how to put a new line in the text.
    I thought I can concat '\n' ,but it does not work.
    the code snippet in the procedure is :
    for c1_rec in c1 loop
    vMsg := ' There are ' || c1_rec.total ||
         ' documents of type ' || c1_rec.doc_type || '\n' ;
    end loop;
    Please give the solution.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you Mark.
    I tried your suggestion.But line break is not working in email.
    Here is how my code is
    in procedure 1 ,i create the message String as :
    for c1_rec in c1 loop
    vMsg := vMsg || ' ' || today_str || ' - ' || c1_rec.total ||
         ' Total inbound documents from : ' || c1_rec.target_value || CHR(13)||CHR10) ;
    dbms_output.put_line(' ' || vMsg);
    end loop;
    --here sending mail calling another procedure
    sendmail( '[email protected]' ,'[email protected]' , 'Test Subject ' , vMsg );
    In Procedure 2( i.e sendmail procedure )
    i am preparing email server connection from and to adresses .Then i am preparing and sending message as
    crlf VARCHAR2( 2 ):= CHR( 13 ) || CHR( 10 );
    conn:= utl_smtp.open_connection( EmailServer, Port );
         utl_smtp.helo( conn, EmailServer );
         utl_smtp.mail( conn, SENDER);
         utl_smtp.rcpt( conn, RECEIVER )
    mesg:= 'Subject: ' || SUBJECT || crlf ||
                   'Date: '||TO_CHAR( SYSDATE, 'Dy, dd Mon yyyy hh24:mi:ss' )||
                   crlf ||
                   'From:'||SENDER|| crlf ||
                   'To: '||RECEIVER || crlf ||
                   'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' || crlf ||
                   '' || crlf || MESSAGE ;
         utl_smtp.data( conn, mesg );
         utl_smtp.quit( conn );
    even now the mail we are getting is not having the line break.I am having line break in dbms output,but not in the mail.
    Is there any mistake how I am sending the mail.Or is there any other way we can put line break in the text
    Thank you.

  • Ignore Line break in find text using grep

    Hi everyone!
    I need to find the text in document using grep.
    find text for :
    Xereptatiuria que alique volo eium qui dolupid ut
    voluptatiam earum saestorepel iuscit im quas et modisimodit.
    The above sentence cannot having line breaks. But document having multiple line breaks.
    so, please to give a tip to find the text using grep.
    I am not excepting this type of result by following.
    Xereptatiuriaque\n alique volo\neium qui dolupid ut\r voluptatiam earum\n saestorepel iuscit im quas et\n modisimodit.  ------------this is not.
    Any another way to find (i.e)., ignore the line break
    simply like this, 
    (?s:Xereptatiuria que alique volo eium qui dolupid ut
    voluptatiam earum saestorepel iuscit im quas et modisimodit.)      --------- the line break wherever it is found,ignore line break in single command.
    Thanks by,
    John Peter.

    johnp45247251,
    what do you really want to do?
    Like pkahrel in your other thread Find Grep And Ignore the line break said:
    pkahrel schrieb:
    You're a moving target: you change your question in each post. Do yourself a favour and go and read up on GREP.
    johnp45247251, one question:
    Could it be possible, that you doesn't understand correctly, how Grep really works?
    <edit by pixxxel schubser>
    Furthermore your example text is different to your screenshot. Your text is:
    »Xereptatiuriaque\n alique volo\neium qui dolupid ut\r voluptatiam earum\n saestorepel iuscit im quas et\n modisimodit.«
    And your screenshot shows:
    »Xereptatiuriaque\n alique volo\n eium qui dolupid ut \rvoluptatiam earum\n saestorepel iuscit im quas et\n modisimodit.«
    Normally the text should look like this:
    »Xereptatiuriaque\nalique volo\neium qui dolupid ut\rvoluptatiam earum\nsaestorepel iuscit im quas et\nmodisimodit.«
    Please explain what do you really want to do and exactly if additional spaces are exists or not!
    Could it be:
    you have a text with paragraphs and with many line breaks in that paragraph and there are no spaces exists before or after your line breaks. And is your destination to remove all the line breaks from your text?
    </edit by pixxxel schubser>
    Then the way is not to find the text completly and to ignore the line breaks – the way is to find the line breaks and replace with a space, e.g. like that:
    find:
    \n
    replace with:
    \s
    (change all)

  • Convert multiple layers into separate smart objects

    I have multiple layers in a document that I want to make into separate smart objects.
    If I select them and choose "convert to smart object" in the Layers Panel fly out, it flattens the layers into 1 smart object.
    Can it be done, or do I need to make each layer a smart object one at a time.
    OR... let me back up
    I have several files in Bridge, I want to "load into Photoshop layers" using the TOOLS > Batch Command BUT have each file load as a smart object.
    Either way would be great!

    While these don't use the batch command, take a look at
    from within photoshop, File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack.
    For bridge try Dr. Browns Services:
    http://www.russellbrown.com/scripts.html
    If you have cs5, you can drag files from mini bridge into an existing
    photoshop document, for smart object layers, provided you have
    your preferences under general to place or drag raster images as smart objects.

  • Insert line break into .txt file

    Alright, so I am writing out to a simple .txt file, and I
    need to force a line break in it. My immediate thought is to use
    "\n" as that is a line break. So, I write it out to the text file,
    and instead of a line break, I see the "complex character" symbol
    (you know, that square that shows up with unknown characters). I
    have tried the various ASCII values to no avail, tried \r, even
    tried copy-pasting a line break in from notepad. Nothing seems to
    be working for me. How do I do this?
    _logFile = "\n";
    stream = new FileStream();
    stream.open(file,FileMode.WRITE);
    stream.writeUTFBytes(_logFile);
    stream.close();

    in windows use "\r\n"
    i.e. _logFile = "\r\n";

  • Overset text will not go into the text box that is part of the master for the next page

    I am trying to (first time user) set up a simple trade-paperback sized book with some photos.  Have set up several masters for chapter title pages, chapter inner pages, etc.  When I copy text out of Word into InDesign, (copy/paste) the text overset box appears.  I load it, then go to the next page, which I have already formatted using one of the masters.  But when I select the desired text box ((Ctrl/shft) and click, the overset text forms a new text box, What am I doing wrong? thanks

    I have done, this did work right for at least the left side of the spread, but never for the right side -
    Make sure the left and right page master page text frames are threaded View>Extras>Show Text Threads. Here I have left and right page text boxes threaded on my A-master spread:
    Checking Smart Text Reflow can make adding long text to master frames easier:
    With Smart Text Reflow enabled I've released the  master page text box on page 1, note the released frame has a solid border, while the unreleased master page frames on subsequent pages are dotted indicating they are still master page items and not page items.
    The result of the paste:

  • Text is not copying into Header Text Type from Contract to Order & Invoice

    Salute Masters!!
    I have done related configuration in VOTXN for Sales Document & Billing.
    After creation of Contract, given Text in New Header Text Type, itu2019s not copying into Sales Order or Invoice.
    Although, which was configured earlier one, for that Header Text Type, text is copying into Order & Invoice both properly.
    Firstly; I have given the same Access Sequence for the New Header Text Type, It was copying the same matter which was given into Old Header Text Type, then I have created new Access Sequence & assigned changed Access Sequence for the New Header Text Type, even then it is not copying.
    I have checked other Configuration those are OK!
    Assignment of Sales Document Type to Text Determination Procedure, it is OK!
    Please provide the solution.
    Thanks in advance.
    Warm Regards,
    Sanjai Srivastav

    Hi
    Hope the issue is resolved , if not please check these settings - VOTXN
    1. Create Text Type for your Sales order -S001 and Billing Invoice - B001
    2. Create Access Sequence - Z001.
    3. Include your Both Text Type in respective Procedures.
    Now
    WHen you will assign the Text into your Text Procedure - Assign same Access Sequence in both the case.
    In your Sales Order text procedure - Assign
    1. Assign Text Type S001  and Access Seq Z001
    2. Select the Access Seq on the left side in the VOTXN T-Code , a POP up will come and then input Your Access Seq into that
    3. You will get another screen, Here give the Seq No-1 and VBBK Header Text and Again Assign TEXT type S001.
    Now go to Invoice Text Procedure
    1. Assign Text Type B001 and Access Seq Z001 and SAVE.
    Once you will do that the step 2 and 3 will automatically get copy in the backend.
    To Check
    2. Select Access Seq on left side and in the Pop Up input access Seq. Now there you will see the system has copied the
    fields from the Order.
    Now try running the scenario. same you can do for Contract and Order.
    Hopefully this will Help you.
    please let me know if any concerns
    Thanks

  • Splitting Data Already In A Column Into Separate Columns

    Hi and I have a column of First Name & Last Name. I want to split them and put them into two columns. How do I do that without re-typing?

    As I studied the menu of the 18 versions, I discovered "funny" things.
    In localized versions we may have three wordings for the same item, one in Keynote, one in Numbers, one in Pages;
    With the revisions of iWork '09, they introduced a menu item "Export" in the File menu.
    Alas they failed to install it in Numbers localized versions.
    The surprizing differences are numerous.
    Some text attributes are available in Pages and Keynote, not in Numbers. Why, we may have text boxes in Numbers too. Just an exemple, Strikethrough is missing in the Format menu.
    But the tracking menu offers 4 items in Numbers and only 3 in Pages ????
    In the document Inspector, in Pages, we have check box + text field to rule footer or header. We have only text field in Numbers so we can't rule the documents the same.
    I may understand that external cell references are unavailable in Pages but not why popup, stepper, slider and checkbox aren't.
    They fixed a limit to the number of columns in a Pages's table.
    I reported that it was annoying to import AW WP documents.
    The limit no longer apply when we import but it continue to strike when we build a table by ourself.
    As you see, I know that we are far from a perfect world.
    Two days ago, I dropped a kind of bomb in the AppleScript forum when, after writing that AppleScript treats correctly the users speaking English and using mm/dd/yyyy dates but that others are 2nd class users, I concluded saying that, from my point of view it's a kind of apartheid.

  • Splitting or Dividing an MP4 file into Separate Files

    I have been importing several VHS tapes with Elgato Video Capture to an external hard drive. I have several MP4 files. Some of the movie files have video from different subjects that I would like to split up. When I open them into Quicktime and copy and paste the section I want to a new Quicktime file why can I not just save the file in the format it was copied from?
    I don't want to have to import these into iMovie and re-export the video. I already have it in the format and size I want. Is there a way to just grab sections from these files and save them as is?
    I'm doing this on my MacBook not my G5 listed in my sig.

    When I open them into Quicktime and copy and paste the section I want to a new Quicktime file why can I not just save the file in the format it was copied from?
    If you are using QT 7 Pro, you can/are already doing so. However, QT Pro saves the segments in their original compression formats to an MOV file container. If your files are MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC you can perform the same segmentation actions using MPEG Streamclip (free) and save the files to either MOV or MP4 file containers. If you are using QT X for segmentation, then it works essentially the same as QT 7 Pro but by default writes the original data to an MOV file container without the .mov designation.
    Also when I export as it take way too long.
    The "Export" option normally re-compresses the video which is what takes so long.
    Why can't I just save and put in a name? It's already encoded and rendered.
    You can. Simply select the icon after it has been saved, click on the name to open the name editing box, and change it to whatever you want as long as the name is valid within file naming restrictions. (e.g., regarding length, characters, etc.)
    Why does it have to act like it's a brand new file?
    It is a "brand new file." Apple may have done this as part of a "do no harm" approach to prevent novice users from overwriting the original file and, thus, losing their original data for which the user may or may not have further use. As to why it doesn't offer you the opportunity to change the name, maybe you should request this option and a future enhancement. Since the name is easily changed in any case, it is not a "biggie" for me.
