Text columns become grouped

I am working on a magazine with 2 text columns on each page.
Until now, it worked like this:
When I place a word file, the text flows first down the left column, then down the right column and so on - and I can move, enlarge or diminish one of the columns - independent of the other column(s).
But now, suddenly, the left and right columns are mated so that I cannot manipulate them independently.
What did I do wrong?

Hard to say... sounds like autoflow that I don't use. But tell me, do they have the dotted line around them that indicates that they're actually Grouped? If not, select the frame and whack control-B (that's for Frame Properties, I'm sure it's available by right click or from the menus, but I have no idea where it is). Check the column count in there; any ID text frame can have multiple columns in it. I'm guessing that autoflow is creating two-column frames, not that you have two separate frames grouped together.

  • How to display different subtotal text for each group in alv report

    Hi,
    i need to display subtotal text as "totals of  Mat1"  for material numbers 1 to 10 as group1 and again i need to display subtotal text as " totals of Mat2" for material number 11 to 20.
    group 2.
    Please help me asap.

    You can create subtotals by columns.
    You would need extra column to group the materials( 1 to 10 GROUP1 20 to 30 GROUP2 by example)  and use this column for subtotals

  • Text Tool becomes Move Tool

    I started learning Photoshop CS4 about a month ago.  One of the first things I learned was to add text.  Simple, fun.  I am now trying to learn about layer masks.  One of the exercises in one of my books is to open an image and then add text to it.  (The idea is to then add a mask and 'hide' portions of the text behind portions of the image.)  A really strange thing is happening when I try to add text.  I highlight the image in the layers column.  (Prior to adding any mask layers.)  I then click the text tool.  But when I click on the image (in the area where I want the text), the text tool 'becomes' a move tool.  A text layer pops up and the words I'm trying to type on the image come out in the title area for the layer (in the layers column).  I've tried everything I can think of to 'get' the text on the image but can't solve it.  (And this has been a SIMPLE activity for a month!)  Can anyone exlain what's going on?  Thanks!

    david h armitage wrote:
    I tried 'committing' the text but it didn't seem to make any difference.  (I checked the 'tick' symbol and still couldn't see anything on the image.  The text layer, however, was 'titled' with the text I typed into the image.)  Here's one thought . . . yesterday when I was having trouble I wondered if the font size was the problem.  The font size was 48 when I clicked the text tool.  I thought that was a reasonable size.  In the course of trying to solve my problem (including resetting the text tool in the drop down menu) I resized the font to 300.  Then I could just see it.  I ended up with a font size of 400!  I wonder if the text has always been there but it was so small in relationship to the size of my image, it couldn't be displayed.  Is that possible?
    It sounds as if your image resolution is so extreme that the text is not visible.
    Look in Image > Image size and tell us the resolution

  • Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member?

    Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member?  I have a group formed in my contacts, but I still have to select each member in that group to send a text or email from my phone.

    There are apps that allow you to address sms messages to groups (such as Speed Names: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speed-names-contacts-groups/id285124918?mt=8), but not iMessages.  Perhaps this will change with a future iOS update.
    The only point of having them at the moment is to allow you to limit the view to only contacts belonging to a group, so that you can more easily add the individual members of the group.  But at the present time, you still have to add them individually.

  • Anchored graphics in margin intruding into text column

    I am creating what is basically a textbook chapter, two columns of text and a wide margin away from the spine. I am positioning some notes in the margin, but also some graphics. Some of the graphics need to be big enough that they intrude into the text column and the text needs to wrap around them. Have done this manually and happy with the results, but would like to have at least some of these graphics anchored to the text. Learning to do this was a long and painful process, and I thought I should document my findings, and ask for any suggestions for improvement.
    I found the two following posts of particular use:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/wrapping-text-around-an-anchored-object.php
    http://blogs.adobe.com/indesignchannel/2007/11/anchored_frames_productivity_s.html
    However, the free tool mentioned in the last post is no longer available.
    Here is what I did.
    First, I set up a couple of keyboard shortcuts.
    Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Text and Tables > Insert Anchored Object/Go to Anchor Marker > Alt+Shift+I
    Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Object Menu > Fitting: Fit Frame to Content > Alt+Shift+F
    Next, I set up defaults for inserting anchored objects. Note that these preferences are saved in the file, and not in the Preferences.
    (make sure nothing is selected) Object > Anchored Object > Insert (Defaults) > Leave defaults except:
    - Object Style: SAR Topics Anchored Graphic (or whatever Object Style you wish; mine includes a word-wrap)
    - Position: Custom
       - Relative to Spine
       - Anchored Object  Reference point: top-left and top-right
       - Anchored Position  Reference Point: mid-left and mid-right
       - X Relative To: Page Edge X Offset -3p0
       - Y Relative to: Line (baseline) Offset 2p0 (needed as anchored position ignores the wordwrap when you enlarge the frame to fit objects that intrude into the text frame)
       - Check “Keep Within Top/Bottom Column Boundaries”
    I suggest as you are trying this, doing the following until at least you're sure that things are working correctly:
    - To view the anchor markers in the text, choose Type > Show Hidden Characters.
    - To view a dashed line from an anchor marker to its associated custom-positioned object, select the object and choose View > Extras > Show Text Threads. The thread extends from the anchor marker to the current proxy point for the anchored object.
    Place your text cursor where you want your anchored graphic to anchor.
    Press Alt+Shift+I.
    A default 6p0 x 6p0 frame should appear in the margin.
    Click on the graphic you wish to put into the anchored frame. Right-click and copy.
    Select the frame in the margin.  Right-click and "paste into."
    Press Alt-Shift-F and this will fit the frame to the graphic.
    This seems to be a reasonably fast and effective workflow.
    If anyone has any suggestions for improvement, please let me know.
    I do have one problem: when I was playing around with this, InDesign crashed, and the file I was trying to do this on is now corrupted and my Alt+Shift+F won't work; the frame won't resize to fit the graphic. I tried trashing my preferences, but then found out the Insert Anchored Object defaults are stored in the file on which I was working, not the actual two InDesign preferences files. 

    Luckily I had a recent backup of my file so restored it and got rid of the corruption I mentioned above.
    Ran into another apparently unsurmountable problem, as described below, and have abandoned anchored graphics for this project.
    If you have two columns on a left page, where the margin is on the far left, anchored objects with wordrap don't work if your anchor is in the second column. That's because ALL of the text in the left column is "before" the anchor, and ignores the anchored object's wordwrap.
    Until this is fixed, I'm abandoning anchored graphics and will place them all manually.

  • GROUP BY: determinstic function column of group by expression 10g vs 11g

    The following works in 10g but now fails in 11g.
    Simple description: If I create a view of a number and subtract 2 from that number
    and I group by the first column and include the 2nd column, it works in 10g and gives "not a group by column" in 11g.
    It seems that 10g knew the 2nd column was derived by the first column so grouping by the 1st column gave an automatic pass to the 2nd column.
    11g seems to be more strict (though I don't know why, if the 2nd column's function is purely deterministic as you would expect subtracting by 2 would be. Same is true for UPPER())
    Is there a reason for this change in behaviour in 11g?
    Is there some explicit reason for the change in functionality?

    Hi,
    Just 4 hours ago, someone else had a very similar question:
    Group by fails on ORA-00979
    Personally, I consider that a bug in Oracle 10. When you do a GROUP BY on a view, you can't expect the SQL engine to look at the view definition, and determine if one of the columns can be derived from another.
    In practice, it's easy enough to add c1u to the GROUP BY clause, or to use MAX (c1u) instead of c1u, to make your query work.

  • How to make text columns with adobe muse

    You can create columns by drawing a text rectangle for each column with the text tool, before you start typing obviously.
    [EDIT: You can use guides to later use the text tools to draw the rectangles according to the layout of your choice.]

  • IWeb sites are slow to upload. text columns turn to heavy png files

    Hi!
    Yes I've noticed that iweb sites for some odd reason are slower to load on any browser. No matter what the hosting is. I use Me.com for a few years and iWeb as I don't have the time or patience to bother with Dreamweaver. I use Me.com for hosting as well as another web hosting server. If there is graphic material on the page, it takes so long to open. Apple must do something about it for sure.
    The program iWeb itself doesn't open up fast enough if you have more than 3 pages on it (which any normal site would have). I'm glad Apple made good changes in iWeb09, but it needs to do something about the speed of the program, the sites it makes and how it processes simple matter on it.
    Even though, I have come across some good examples of iWeb made sites that are easy and relatively faster to open or they open at a normal speed. The authors also have used flash material on their iWeb sites. I have a non-registered program (web site Maestro) that claims to ease up and streamline the graphic and other heavy content on a iWeb site to make it lighter with loading.
    But the unregistered version works on 70 percent files only. And I don't really notice any difference with it either. So I'm doubtful of buying the full version.
    Any thoughts? Solutions? Would really appreciate.
    ANOTHER ISSUE that I have discovered while making iWeb site is that a text column put on a shape after publishing turns into a heavy PNG picture file that can weight almost upto 1 whole megabyte!!!
    And you keep wondering why the darn page is so slow to open!!! Cuz a simple text could've been just about 50kb. But it turns into a 900kb picture in png!!! Is there a way to change this?? I guess, taking out the picture from the published site folder and reediting it in - say - Photoshop reducing its size may help. But its so cumbersome and arduous to go into every darn folder and open all the text now converted into pics and re-edit them!! And then their reduced quality will make the text look feeble and bad quality too.
    This is a problem that APPLE iWEB experts Must work on. iWeb gives a certain flexibility as its like a free flowing canvas. But then its also a known fact that iWeb sites are exceptionally heavier to open, unless you know many other tweaks here and there to make it work right. But again, this is contrary to the purpose of iWeb, cuz its made for amateur site makers.
    I wish there is a work around this thing really.
    ANY SUGGESTIONS FRIENDS?? WOULD LOVE TO HEAR. PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS AND SOLUTIONS.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Shapes by their very nature are graphic elements that end up a png file whether there's text in them or not. You should try adding the text in a text box above the shape and see if there's any difference. Just be sure to use a Web Safe Font and not add any enhancements that will turn it into a image file:

    You may not notice a difference with loading with WSM but those with Internet Explorer should. Have you tested your site with and without WSM on a PC?
    In WSM you can set the amount of optimizing for graphics. I've set it at about 60% (moderate) and haven't tested other settings for image quality. I'm sure a lower quality level, i.e. more compression, will have a impact on file loading. I just don't have a feel for the greatest amount of compression that will still have acceptable image quality. You'll just have to experiment.
    If your site is a commercial site then using a commercial hosting server is the best option. Also, it's reported that using a Text Based Navbar instead of iWeb's java based one will help dark side compatibility.
    Be sure to put in feature requests for the improvements that you see necessary to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html.
