Styles (nested?) in Long Document with Color Coded Sections

Hi, I am looking for a solid style set-up for a document with seven color coded sections. The character, paragraph, table styles, etc. will be used throughout the book, but several of them (chapter headers, bold color, table strokes) will shift colors from section to section. What is the best way to set this up so I can still make other changes to the styles without having to edit each colored section separately.
Thanks in advance,
Marshall

In practice, I'm having rouble making this work.
I have one swatched, named "Section Color" and if I change the definition or CMYK recipie of that color it will ripple instantly through the styles( as you said,) I have swatches unchecked from the Syncronize Options, but upon syncing it still rewrites that CMYK recipie back to the style source's and all colors ripple back.
It's not hard to reset one color for each section, but id like to know why it's changing swatches with swatches unchecked. Is it writing that color from the paragraph or other styles which ARE set to sync?

  • Long document with table keeps corrupting

    I have a file that is around 300 pages containg a continous table - text only, roughly 13,000 rows that keeps corrupting.
    The first file corrupted, so we rebuilt it and when the second one was just about complete, InDesign crashed and now the file will not open... it opens a blank screen but gets a never ending spinny beach ball.
    The file also contains nested master pages (total of 2 masters) moved from a book that this file will eventually become a part of.
    My question, is the table simply too large for Indesign to handle - (this I find unlikely since I've done similar work many times before) or are the master pages causing an issue or should this file be part of the book before starting it rather than adding it after its finished?
    Any thoughts would be appreciated, before we rebuild for the 3rd time. I just want to be cautious to not do anything that might corrupt the book...
    Thanks

    Are you patched all the way to 7.0.4?
    13000 rows of pasted text. Wow.
    Not that it helps at this point, but I'd start doing save as more often, and to a new name so you have some backup versions if it goes south again. An export to .idml (see Remove minor corruption by exporting) if you can get anythign to open certainly won't hurt, either.

  • Label Printer -  to do color coding

    I am looking for a printer, which could print labels with color coding.
    Let me explain, what I am trying to acheive..
    1.  I should be able to print labels, - labels of size 4  X 6 IN, or 3 X 2 IN or any sizes of label -- >  the label is not colored, just like any normal label, with white background, and data being printed in black color..(this is what all intermec and zebra printers do.. )
    2. Label has barcodes --> linear bar codes as well as 2D Matrix barcodes... : This could be acheived by any of the Intermec printers (PM4i or 3400E ) or Zebra Printers.
    3. The label should contain a colored strip based on the content of the packing box . for eg, if it is rubber part, the label should contain a Red color strip, if plastic then yellow color, if assembly then blue and so on...  A colored bar of  rectangular shape, (1 cm width and 3 cm long ).
    Does anyone know any Printers out in the market, which could do this 3 rd step ?  (obviously along with first step and second step ).
    I called Intermec and Zebra - they both dont have it...
    Also, Please keep in mind that, these printer should be capable of printing these labels from SAP ---> ie, we will be calling a standard text (SO10), using the write_form, and these printer should be able to print it...
    Any input, even a clue, will be of much help for me.
    Thank you

    From the top of my head, something like this.
    IIF([Priority]="High", "<RED>" + [Description] + "</RED>", IIF([Priority]="Medium", <YELLOW>" + [Description] + "</YELLOW>", <GREEN>" + [Description] + "</GREEN>"))
    But I vaguely remember you could assign colors to fields in the Calendar, so I think I did something else.
    I think I created calculated fields where only one would have text depending on the Priority.
    So let's say I created 3 calculated fields and added them all three to the calendar.
    Only fields that contain text will show up.
    Calculated Field Description Red: IIF([Priority]="High", [Description], "")
    Calculated Field Description Yellow: IIF([Priority]="Medium", [Description], "")
    Calculated Field Description Green: IIF([Priority]="Low", [Description], "")
    But I never worked with On Demand Calendar, so you have to check what works best for you.
    You can also check: How to Configure Standard Applet "Activity HI Calendar Applet" so it Displays Icons or Different Colors to Reflect the Status of the Activities? [ID 1373880.1]
    And it looks like you have more control in Siebel 8 (again, I never worked with On Demand, so you have to check yourself).

  • Color coding attribute ( IEEE 1394 )

    Hello,
    What is teh correspondance between the value out after a get attributes with attribute input set to "color coding" and the image type? I have only a monochrome camera so I can see that color coding=1 is for 8 bits images but what stands for RGB, HSL,16 bits images etc etc ?
    Thank you for your answer !

    Hello,
    from niimaq1394.h:
    IMG1394_COLORID_DEFAULT,

    In C language, you need to compare the return value to this constances.
    In LabVIEW, use Imaq1394Attribute.vi with "color coding" attribut.

    Hi,
    You can use function module "XXL_SIMPLE_API"
    or alternatively use "XXL_FULL_API".
    On the import, parameter name "N_KEY_COLS" is used to colour fields. The headings are automatically coloured. 1 is the default value.

  • HELP!? Remove 1 page from long document and shift all the rest pages

    Hello,
    I am facing to following problem:
    I have a long document with facing pages. Now I need to remove one left page in the middle of the document and shift all the rest pages one step forward. It means from all right pages do a left and vice versa (started from the page that was removed). There is a continous text int the whole document and left/right strip made from different photos.
    To clarify the situation I am attaching the preview. I have deleted page no.12 and I need to shift page 13 to left, 14 to right after 13, 15 to left, 16 to right after 15 and so on....
    Is there any simple way how to do it?
    Thank you very much for any tips.

    It looks to me as if you may something else going on here. Are you using right-to-left text here so the document binding would be onthe right when the book is closed? If not, your problem is not with page 13 so much as it is with the earlier pages.
    Unless you force it to do otherwise by disabling page shuffling someplace, in left-to-right documents using facing pages ID will always put odd numbered pages to the right of the spine and even to the left, the opposite for right-to-left documents. In either case, it seems like you have page shuffling disabled either for the whole file or for a selected spread. You can re-enable it from the menu in the Pages panel. When ID asks if you want to maintain the current number of pages on a spread you should probably say no. Either pages 1-12 will swtch sides, or 13 and following will, and your spreads will rearrange to put two pages together as they should be.
    If you  have overridden master page objects, a side effect of switching sides on the spread will be that the overridden objects will remain and the new master objects from the other side of the spread will appear behind them.

  • Making an ID document one color

    In a document with colored and B&W graphics and text is it possible to make all the graphics and text one color, for example PMS 280, to print on a Xerox Docucolor printer? Heretofore we've been coloring all the text one box at a time and doing the graphics in Photoshop or Illustrator, which is very time-consuming. Or can the document be exported as a PDF and colorized in Acrobat? Thanks!

    If you have CS3, I believe you can use GREP to replace colors. Also, look for a script that will do it. I'm pretty sure there is one.

  • Opening SASS files (.scss) in Dreamweaver (CS6) but no color coding or hinting

    Hi there, wanted to ask if anyone has a solution for getting Dreamweaver (CS6) on a Mac (10.9.5) to be able to open a .sccs file with color coding and hinting. At the moment opens files but no autocomplete, color coding or hinting.

    Thanks for the help. I didn't think the retina did, I just wanted to help clarify what I was working with. I tried changing the external editor also and that got the split design view working again, but still no code coloring gosh darnit.

  • [AS] CS3- Find any text with style, then replace that text with a new applied fill color.

    I am trying to find the simplest way in cs3 to find any text with style, then replace that text with a new fill color. I can find text and change text. I can find a style and change it to a new style. I can't seem to find a style and change the applied fill color. I do not want to change the properties of the style, just the applied color. Yes, I want the + sign, for now. I know, why not update the style, I am not allowed to. Any help would be great. Since the search is not available, I need a new response.
    Thanks.

    You can work around the bug by just doing a find, then looping through the<br />results, changing the color one at a time. It'll be a fraction slower, but<br />should do the trick:<br /><br />tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"<br />    set find text preferences to nothing<br />    set properties of find text preferences to {applied paragraph style:"The<br />name"}<br />    set theFinds to find text document 1<br />    repeat with i from 1 to count of theFinds<br />        set properties of item i of theFinds to {fill color:"Replace color"}<br />    end repeat<br />end tell<br /><br />The bug is fixed in CS4, BTW.<br /><br />-- <br />Shane Stanley <[email protected]><br />AppleScript Pro Florida, April 2009 <a href=http://scriptingmatters.com/aspro>

  • Wish: annotate workflow with separator, comment or color-coding

    I've been developing a Finder workflow that has grown to 23 steps, and more are coming.
    The workflow is broken up into segments to 2-4 actions each. I've customized the action names and collapsed each segment in order to better see the overall sequence.
    The problem is the segments visually run together. If this were a programming language, I'd visually set off the first action of each segment with a blank line or a comment. I'd like to do the same with my workflows.
    The thoughts that come to mind are a visual separator, a workflow comment, colored action names, and color-coding (a la Finder labels). I like coloring best because it doesn't take vertical space (a critical Automator resource).
    [I submitted this as formal Feedback - Design/Ease of Use.]

    Thanks, lc55, for contributing to this thread.
    You could structure the workflow like a regular
    program with a main workflow calling subsidiary
    workflows ....
    That might add clarity to my long scripts, but at the expense of numerous small files, which seems like trading one problem for another.
    Here again, conventional programming provide an excellent model to follow, with a main routine and a collection of subroutines in a SINGLE file.

  • After updating to 5.1, pages no longer lets me convert long, single page (up to 8 1/2 x 50) document to an 8 1/2 x 11 document with many pages.

    I have been using pages to create a document that I always export in two ways.  1st, I export a single page document that contains all of the data (sometimes this can go as long as 8 1/2 x 50).  I have to do this for web purposes.  Next, I duplicate the document, and change the page setup to 8 1/2 x 11, turning it into a document with many pages. This is for printing purposes.
    Before upgrading to Pages 5.1, this worked flawlessly.  After the upgrade, when I change the document to 8 1/2 x 11, Pages just deletes all of the data after the 11'' mark. 
    I am trying to make it behave like it did before the upgrade: when I convert the document to 8 1/2 x 11, it just made as many new pages as necessary and didn't delete any of the data.
    How can I do this?

    Pages 5 is buggy and has had over 100 fetaures removed.
    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder, use that.

  • How to scan both sides of document in color to pdf with the dr-m160?

    how to scan both sides of document in color to pdf with the dr-m160?

    Hi healthynhappy1.
    To scan a 2-sided document, you will need to change the scanner settings in the software. 
    If you are using Capture On Touch:
    You will need to turn off the "Scan in Full Auto" option. 
    Next, you will open [Scanner Settings] and change the "Scanning Side" to Duplex. 
    Verify that the [Color Mode] shows "24-bit Color" and when you get the option to save the file, verify the [File Type] shows as "PDF".
    If you are using CapturePerfect:
    Click [Scan].
    Click [Scanner Settings].
    Change the [Scan Side] to "Duplex".
    Verify that [Color Mode] is set for "Color" and then save the file as "PDF".
    I hope that this information is helpful to you.  Should you need further assistance, please contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).  Have a great day!

    Thanks very much for your help, but I'm still overlooking something. I double checked to make sure that I did not have a hidden .txt file extention. I then decided to abandon the lock on preferences idea until I get it working. I converted my mozilla.cfg file back to plain text. I made sure I do not have an extra blank line at the end of each file. The syntax looks good, as far as I can tell. I'll copy and paste what I have so far. Did I have the file locations correct posted above? Also, if you feel i can delete some lines of text in my mozilla.cfg file I'll be happy to do so.

    I don't have this behavior when I work with a CMYK.
