Text frame only shows a single line / always overset

I have an InDesign CS 4 file that I'm trying to open in CS 5.5. When I try to edit the text in any text frame (e.g., in Story Editor), it tells me the text is overset and only displays a single line even though the field is clearly tall enough. Basically, it won't wrap the text onto the next line. In fact, trying to create a new text frame is always overset. It works correctly if I create a new document though.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

This means the frame is too narrow to hold the line, which can happen for a variety of reasons. IF text shows on the first line as you start to type, then disappears after a number of characters, you've got a setting that is preventing the text from breaking at the end of a line, possibly No Break applied to all text, or you have hyphenation turned off and are using non-breaking spaces (I see that a lot in imported Word files). If you never see any text, then it's probably an indent problem, either a frame attribute, or more likely the paragraph indent settings for the style or applied to the text as local formatting (saw that one the other day, also in an imported Word file).

  • SAPScript:  why the window only show the LAST line

    Dears,
    In my form, one of the window only show the LAST line of the it.
    I have set the window enough space,  also when  debuging the program , open_form, write_form,
    all of those sy-subrc = 0.
    both static texts and dynamic texts are set  in the window,   but only the last line shown.
    Anyone could help me?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    There are several possibilities to resolve your problem.
    You can work with 2 main windows on in1 page.
    With NEW-WINDOW you switch to the next main-window
    How to use it.
    make an item in main window with that /: NEW-WINDOW command
    if you are ready with first loop call a WRITE_FORM with that NEW-WINDOW statement.
    to cojntinue in the other main.
    Other possibility is. (in case there are not ot many lines)
    Use for every line other variable names.
    Fill these in the loop. And after loop WRITE FORM
    eg. (if maximum is 3 lines)
    &VAR1_1& &VAR1_2& &VAR1_3& &VAR1_4&
    &VAR2_1& &VAR2_2& &VAR2_3& &VAR2_4&
    &VAR3_1& &VAR3_2& &VAR3_3& &VAR3_4&
    Hope this helps.
    Gr., Frank

  • Why is my text frame edge showing when I print?

    My text frame edge shows up sometimes when it overlaps another frame.    It doesn't show up in the document when I am creating it, but it shows up when I print.  It is not a solid line all around the frame, instead, it just shows up in small lines once in awhile.  I have attached a picture showing the black dashed lines through the words "pow" and "baby.  Please let me know what I should be doing differently!

    Could be the printer (do the lines stay in the same place on every print? How about if you rotate the page 180?) or they could be transparency flattening artifacts, in which case exporting to PDF with live transparency and printing that might work better than printing direct from ID.

  • I receive daily emails from the NY Times, which I read from my Ipad. Some of the emails will show all of the stories available, and some will only show a few lines in the body and the rest of the email is blank. Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • HT1349 my phone keeps freezing on settings, I cannot make or receive a call but everything else is working including internet and mail. where it should be showing the reception bars it is only showing a broken line. How do I resolve this?

    my phone keeps freezing on settings, I cannot make or receive a call but everything else is working including internet and mail. where it should be showing the reception bars it is only showing a broken line. How do I resolve this?

    If you are not showing reception bars, then I don't know how the data is working? Have you tried doing a reset? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, check to see if it works. If that doesn't help, then try removing the SIM card, then reinserting it. If that doesn't help, then contact your carrier for assistance in calling.

    Click once on the sleep/wake button to ignore the caller and the call will eventually
    go to voicemail. Click twice to send the caller directly to email.

  • ICal only displays a single line for entries in month view.

    This means I can't see what my diary entries refer to.  Can I change it to show two lines or the full entry, as iCal did in Snow Leopard?

    Hi Guys, thanks for getting back to me.
    the problem is purely about design view display and not about coding.
    Below is how CS4 displays borders with two lines which I find difficult to decipher:
    Then below is Macromedia DM 8 and this how I want the borders to look, with single lines to display the tables.
    This may just be the way Abobe have decided to display tables in design view and there may not be any option to change it but if you know any way to change it I would be most greatful.
    Thanks again.

  • IMovie text library only shows 1 font, previously it would access all the fonts on my MacBook Pro - how do I get them back into the iMovie library?

    Hello there ATCLTD,
    I was think these troubleshooting steps will be the best for the issue you describe.
    First I would perform a safeboot with this article named Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564.
    To perform a Safe Boot, press and hold the Shift key immediately after your Mac starts up. Continue holding down the Shift key until a gray Apple logo appears on the screen.
    And perhaps this article to troubleshoot duplicate fonts, which can cause all kinds of wonky activity.
    Font Book 198: Resolve duplicate fonts

    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Itunes has doubled up the songs on my iPhone but only shows them singly within iTunes. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    My iPhone lists every song (songs that I have imported from cd's, but not purchased through iTunes) twice. iTunes only shows 1 instance of each song. If I delete a doubled up entry from the phone, it deletes the whole song. Has anyone else run into this problem?

    Hey!  You are a gem!  At the moment it seems to be working but I am leaving it connected to iTunes until I updaet to the next version and hopefully that will fix whatever it was that caused the problem.  Thank you a milion times over!  It is 11.14pm over here and all the call centres are closed!
    THANKYOU!

  • Only showing the first line.

    When I compile and run this program, it only prints out the first line of text. Any idea's why it might be doing this?
    public class app {
         public static void main(String[] args)
              int years;
                   years = 1000;
                        System.out.println("Millenium = " +years);
              int days;
                   days = 365;
                        System.out.println("Year = " +days);
              int hours;
                   hours = 24;
                        System.out.println("Hours = " +hours);
    }

    What are you expecting it to do? Do you want an applet instead?
    public class Test extends JApplet
       String message;
       public void init()
          message = "Hello World!";
       public void paint(Graphics g)
          g.drawString(message, 5, 5);
    }

  • Why Rich Text (HTML Only) format email introduces line breaks (paragraph marks) in the email body in html?

    A sentence in rich text (change in Options, Delivery format) appears as a single sentence in browser. But when I check the page source I see that sentence has been broken in to multiple lines. Why is this done? Isn't this a bug?
    When viewed in a browser or application that supports rich text this does not create any problem since the line breaks are not taken into account . But I am trying to extract the text from this html and display in a nonHTML application like notepad.
    Is this done on purpose?
    For eg.
    In browser - Honesty is the best policy
    In View HTML Source -
    Honesty
    Is the
    best
    policy.

    lets start at the beginning.
    There is no such thing as rich text email, unless it in internal corporate stuff like MS Exchange, Lotus notes etc. EMail on the internet is HTML or Plain Text.
    I have no options > delivery format in my settings. Is this something to do with Outlook perhaps?
    Then there is your image. All those MSO objects. They stand for Microsoft Office Objects and indicate the source of the HTML as being Outlook or at least Microsoft Office. All in all I think your asking about Microsoft actions on a Mozilla forum.

    On only one of my computers (and only in Firefox 16) adsense text ads show up on my sites and most other sites with adsense now with only large headlines of the ads (the text of the ads only appear after you hover over the headline.).
    I see this only happening on one of my computers with Firefox 16. In all other browsers and computers, adsense appears normally, and also normal in IE and Chrome.
    I cannot find anything in my firefox settings or add-ons that would be different or causing this.

  • How to update PO Price only for a single line item and not other Line Item

    Hi
    My requirement is not to update Price of PO from PIR if the Final Invoice Indiactor is not set and it is not a return PO. I am trying to do this using
    BAPI_PO_CHANGE to update price automatically from Pricing record using
    POITEM-PO_ITEM = '00001'
    POITEM-CALCTYPE = 'B'.
    POITEMX-PO_ITEM = '00001'
    POITEMX-CALCTYPE = 'X'.
    The price gets updated for the line item 1 as well as other line item which I do not want. Please can you tell how to restrict that.
    Is it possible to restrict through configuration if this indicator is set there should be no price update. I tried to check in ME22n and if I update the condition item by pressing the update button the other item price also gets updated.
    Thanks

    Timestamp is date and time together in one field..
    Search for data element TIMESTAMP.
    If you are getting this in your table.
    If you are getting time and date in different fields then you can use the function module
    given below....
    CALL FUNCTION 'DELTA_TIME_DAY_HOUR'
      EXPORTING
        t1            =
        t2            =
        d1            =
        d2            =
    IMPORTING
       MINUTES       =
    Then you can convert minutes into seconds..
    Function module credit to BrightSide it works....but only it will give difference in minutes
