TOC scrambled with headings from anchored objects

I have a book design with first-level headings in the main text flow and second-level headings inside of anchored objects in the left margin of the pages. When I generate a TOC the headings used to be in the correct order, precisely as intended. After installing the 5.0.2 update however the TOC gets scrambled when I update it. The second-level headings from the anchored objects are printed before the first-level heading (in the TOC) when they are both on the same page. Second-level headings on pages after the first-level heading are printed after the first-level heading (in the TOC) where they should be.
The source of this problem may be the altered search-order for headings that should be included in the TOC. Although it seems only logical that the main text flow defines the order from top to bottom and anchored objects should be included from the anchor in the main text flow. Now it seems that the search order is from left to right on the pages.
Adobe says to have made major fixes in the areas of both anchored objects and table of content generation, but whatever they did the only difference I find is for the worse.
Is there a fix for this fix?

Long shot, but go to the application preferences and uncheck the box in the General section that says Prevent Selection of Locked Objects.

That app is made for the iPhone - the app will work on the iPad but is not specifically designed to take advantage of the larger screen.
When searching for an app, look at the top of the screen for a button that says iPhone Apps. Tap on it to switch to apps meant for iPhone and Scramble with Friends should show up.

Count total number of record of table with deletion from archiving object

Does anyone know is there any SAP standard program to count the total number of record of the table with deletion from Archiving Object and display in repprt?

Not sure of the question. Are you looking to get the sql "select count(*) from table" from using the TopLink expression framework or are you getting that SQL already and want something else?
If you are looking just to get the count from a table/class, you can use a ReportQuery:
ReportQuery rquery = new ReportQuery(ClassToQueryOn.class);
rquery.addCount(); //equivalent to count(*);
session.executeQuery(rquery);
You can use a report query to return data instead of objects, and use selection criteria just like a normal read query.

Report with fields from multiple objects

I have a query regarding reports:
For a certain role I gave "Has Access" to only SRs and not the other objects and added a certain book containing SRs. I have a report with fields pulled from SRs, Accounts and Contacts. Is it necessary that the role should have "Has Access" to Accounts and Contacts also for this report to show any data?
Please suggest.

Udaya

Parallax with easing from anchor and mouse wheel

Can anyone please point me into a tutorial on how to add mouse wheel easing with a parallax effect? An effect similar to www.boy-coy.com where easing is everywhere - in anchor links, in scrubbing the scrollbar, and even when using the mouse wheel.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I uninstalled the 1.6.06 on my Windows xp Windows Virtual Machine because I believe it was doing this.Granted, you will have the latest JRE installed, but the Forms app is still configured to use JRE 1.6.0_06. If you open your Java Console, you will see the Java version listed at the top and a message that basically states the JRE is stepping down to the specified version.
IE7.The minimum JRE version required for IE7 is Oracle Jinitiator 1.3.1.28 or Sun JRE 1.5.0_06 (Forms version 10.1.2.2) or 1.6.0_04 (Forms version 10.1.2.3).
Then I also tried on Windows 7. IE8.Windows 7/IE8 required Forms 10.1.2.3 and Sun JRe 1.6.0_16 or higher.
You can find each of these requirements in the Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) Certification Matrix.
In order to test your client with the new JRE version, I suggest you contact your Apps Server admin (SA) and ask them to create a new config in the formsweb.cfg. This is easy to add if they use the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g - Application Server Control. Once your SA has created a config that uses the 1.6.0_23 version of the JRE, you just need to pass this as a parameter in your application URL. For example, if your URL is: "http://your.server.com:8889/forms/frmservlet" you would add "?config=your_config". All together it will look like: http://your.server.com:8889/forms/frmservlet?config=your_config

[CS3] GREP-Problem with Anchored Objects

Hi,
I've the following problem:
Lines beginning with a, b, c etc. should be formatted equally, so I use the following GREP:
Search:
^([a-z])(\.??)([ \t])
Replace:
$1.\t
Now there are some abc lines, which begin with an anchored object, so I tried:
Search:
^(~a*?[a-z])(\.??)([ \t])
Replace:
$1.\t
But with this, the anchored object is deleted. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Tobias

That's a known bug -- Dave Saunders discovered it, to his surprise, I might add. There seems to be no reason for it.

Consecutive footnotes within anchored objects

I am working on a long indesign document with footnotes and anchored objects. The anchored objects have both text and graphics within them and some of them have footnotes as well. I’m having trouble figuring out how to make the footnotes within the anchored objects number consecutively with the rest of the footnotes within the text. Can anyone help?

This is a good reason to add voices to request that footnote numbers be accessible to cross-references, so that cross-references to the hidden footnotes update without manual effort.
For those who don't know, the feature request and bug report is here: Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form

It's not possible. Footnotes are counted per continuous story; an anchored text frame is not considered part of it.
When I NEED this, I place the footnote ... somewhere else on the page with the anchored object! You can hide the footnote marker by setting its color to [None], and type a regular superscript number inside the box. Pretty lame, and a Little Hell if your text reflows.

Problem with anchored objects in file from CS4

I opened, in CS5, a file which was done in CS4 and discovered all my anchored objects were gone!
Analising the document, I understood they were there, but in a kind of mask ("Illustrator style") but in a text frame, which is odd, I think.
I show here:
1. one picture of the CS4 file
2. one picture of the same file, but opened in CS5
3. one picture of this file, in CS5, showing the "ghost" when I put the cursor over the "missing" anchored object
If I cut and paste the objects they appear, but if I put them back like anchored objects, they disapear again.
I had to fix every thing in a document I was working (it's a 124 pages document...) without anchored objects, just grouped them, because it was urgent (as always...) but I am reporting this because maybe people hadn't notice this and maybe there's a way to fix this.

It's very hard to tell what might be causing this without seeing the actual file. I looked around and found a CS4 file on my suystem with hundreds of anchored photos, and they show fine when I open in CS5.
My first impression is that this is ither a layer problem of some sort, or perhaps the objects have been set not to print and you have a preview mode enabled, but eh screen captures don't seem to support the latter.
What happens if you export the file to .idml in CS4 and open that in CS5?

Creating TOC: order of anchored objects

Hey scripting experts,
i have a question creating an automated table of contents.
The problem is, that I am using anchored objects (text) in a text frame/story. Let's assume there is a text frame, starting with the anchor of an anchored object that contains the "headline # 1" and is placed e.g. on the top of the page. The anchor is followed by "headline #2" and "headline #3" (both simple text, no anchored object).
When generating toc, the order of the headlines will not be read as desired. The anchored object unfortunately is not added at first, but at the end. So the generated order is: #2, #3, #1. I would prefer #1, #2, #3.
Do you think, there might be a suitable (and scriptable) way to teach InDesign, to count an anchored object according to the position of the corresponding anchor in the text? Yes? I would be glad for any advice!
Thank you!
Jan

Hi Peter,
thank you very much for your quick and technically versatile reply! Unfortunately my answer reaches you slightly late – due to Easter/holidays (hopefully you spend them relaxed ...).
Nevertheless i am really glad having received your hint. At the moment i am still a bloody beginner in scripting/xml-rules, but trying hard to forge ahead. Maybe aming for a specific target causes progress ... You signalized me there probably is a solution, so with your hint at the back of my mind, i will start practicing now.
Many thanks and best regards
Jan

TOC and anchored objects

Hi!
I'm experiencing some problems generating the TOC.
I design the chapter titles to stay into an anchored object before the first paragraph title but generating the TOC the chapter title is putted after the first paragraph title!
There's a way to make indd to read the title into the anchored object first?
Thank you!

Thanks to everyone for the help and sorry if I can answer just now.
I'm probably doing something wrong in anchoring the object, I don't use this method often. I need to put the chapter title in a frame that everything is within a fluid text, so that if I remove or add some text the title box moves accordingly.
The method I used to anchor the text frame with the title chapter is to hold down the shift key and drag (I'm using windows7) on the black square. And it works great, if not for this issue of the TOC!
I accept any kind of suggestion!
@ Uwe: using this method to anchor I can't move the frame to right or left... So nothing change...

Anchored Objects with text wrap, need vertical space

Hi. I'm a fairly new InDesign user and have just this past week learned about anchored objects, threading text frames, numbered lists, and some other fun options. So far InDesign has done most everything I need fairly elegantly. However, I have not been able solve one issue.
In my book I have numerous pages that have this issue; I'll just describe one case. On this page there are 4 graphics running down the right side of the page. These are not anchored graphics. They do have text wrap defined on the left side and bottom. There is text that wraps lovely on the left.
Each of these four graphics has a specific paragraph it needs to top align with. However, the text it aligns with may not take up as much vertical space as the graphic does. When I anchor each graphic with the paragraph it needs to align with, the four graphics overlap each other.
At the moment, to make it look right, I have placed each graphic individually and added a blank paragraph above each paragraph of text that should align with a graphic and use the Space Above of each blank paragraph to have it align with the graphic.
I'm not even sure what to search to try and solve this. I looked briefly into compound paths, but that didn't look like it would help.
I hope this is clear and thank you for any assistance at all.
Andrea

No problem. Click your cursor somewhere in the paragraph that ought to be aligned with the next image down, then run this Javascript.
It's not entirely accurate, as it uses the font size to do a minimal adjustment where it actually should use the font's cap height -- but you cannot get to that through scripting. This final adjustment is necessary because ID does know the baseline, and your first line ought to dip just below this to have the top of the first line aligned to the top of the image.
//DESCRIPTION:Align paragraph with image.

     ypos = app.selection[0].paragraphs[0].lines[0].baseline;
     pg = app.selection[0].parentTextFrames[0];
     while (1)
          if (pg instanceof Character)
               pg = pg.parentTextFrames[0];

     dist = 999999;
     nearest = null;
     for (i=0; i<img.length; i++)
          if (img[i].geometricBounds[0] > ypos && Math.abs(img[i].geometricBounds[0] - ypos) < dist)
               dist = Math.abs(img[i].geometricBounds[0] - ypos);
               nearest = img[i];
     if (nearest == null)
          alert ("no image found nearby!");
     else

          app.activeDocument.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.POINTS;

This image shows three paragraphs aligned with their respective images (it won't work on the first paragraph, but that ought not to be necessary anyhoo).

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't work Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

How to remove an anchored object from paragraph

Hi All,
I have a paragraph which have inline anchored object.
Is it possible to skip anchored object from the paragraph tagging it.?
Need Some method using which I can remove the anchored object from paragraph.
Regards,

Hi,
To skip and to remove can differ, so you have to decide what is a goal.
Removing this can as easy as calling find...replace method (app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "^a")

Table of Content Help - Anchored Objects/Listing Order

For the love of god this is extremely frustrating. I have been searching for literally hours trying to find the solution.
I have a large document, linked frames from page 1 through page 44 for example.
On many pages I have figures, and using an incrementing paragraph style, these figure captions are numbered sequentially.
When generating a table of contents, any figures that are in the main linked frames are created in the proper order.
My issue is that on a few pages, I have figures inside anchored objects - basically an anchored text frame with a picture and the figure label text using my paragraph style.
These anchored objects are not being put in the table of contents in the proper order - they are being added to the end of the toc! Indesign should be smart enough to add items on the page in the proper order - be it the main frame or an anchored one!
For example
Figure 1 - page 1
Figure 2 - page 1
Figure 3 - page 2
Figure 5 - Page 3
Figure 4 - Page 2 <<< huh?
Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

After looking at this a bit more, this may or may not work so we might need to get dirty on this one .....................
Some clues can be found here : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/bip-bookbinding-176639.pdf
Looking at Page 7, it should be obvious that we can add additional deatils to the reports, including cover pages.
Though, after looking at Page 8, I think I may have you slightly in the wrong direction. toc-template appears to simply cover the commands for the table of contents and there is another template to control everything. But is that file visible to edit?
If you run FRConfig.cmd, you can find more clues.
Go to the MBeans tab, expand com.hyperion, then expand Financial Reporting, and Attributes.
The two attributes that immeidately jump out are TextPrintTemplate and BookTOCPrintTemplate
- TextPrintTemplate is the FR_TextTemplate.doc file in <<EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE>>/products/FinancialReporting/bin/ folder
- BookTOCPrintTemplate is the toc-template.rtf file previously discussed.
Once again, though, the other template exposed to us is most likely just driving the content and is not at a high enough definition level for this to work how you want it to.
I would say to use the example in the PDF and try adding that to the table of contents page before it does all of the loops. Perhaps it will work from there, perhaps not.
If that doesn't work, Thursday we can attempt to drill into this more.

New technique to place multiple anchored objects in InDesign story

Hello,
For a while I have been trying to figure out how to insert multiple anchored objects into an Indesign story. As far as I can tell, you cannot copy multiple objects that have already been placed in a document (such as a multi-page pdf) into an InDesign story, but must copy and paste them one-by-one into the story. This is a problem for a project I am working on where I want to have a large number of 340x52 pt pdfs to flow throughout a document in a master text frame interspersed with text.
I have now found a solution for this issue that I thought I would share in case it would be helpful for anyone. It utilizes Automator actions for Mac OS X and Microsoft Word 2011 [2008 may work also, but I don't have a copy of that to test]; I am not good with scripting but perhaps similar solutions could be found for other systems and programs.
1. If you want to place a multipage pdf within a text frame, first it into individual files for each page (with Acrobat Pro or pdftk or something similiar).
2. Create an Automator service or program with the action "Create New Word Document". You can also use another automator action to save the document, or save it manually (to change the filename). In the finder, select the items you want, then run the service or drag them into the Automator program you have created.
3. Place the word document into your InDesign story. Your items will now be anchored objects ordered in your text frame as they were in the finder.
Please let me know if this is helpful or if anyone has suggestions for doing this process is a more efficient way. I am not sure, but it may be the case that this approach would only work on Macs, as I gather from this thread.

I might note that I am using InDesign CS 5, and importing from a document stored in docx format.
