Two Assignments in InCopy's Assign Panel

Now I'll install the workflow with InDesign CS5 and InCopyCS5 at medium Newspaper.
The problem is: I want that InCopy users (editors) to be able put a INCX file to other assingment in InCopy's panel assignments
Is it Possible? Have two assignments in InCopy Panel?
Or a workaround: When the Editor finish your work in some text frame, he can indicate that frame is free to review, without talk with InDesign user. Who have the rights to change this INCX from a assignment to another.
Thanks a lot to any help.

That's a potential problem right there but I doubt it's the cause of this issue.
Does everyone have full permission on the server? Are you absolutely sure that nothing was closed without checking it out? Are the checked out stories consistent between users?

Problems packaging assignments for incopy

After the recent updates I can't seem able to package the assignments for inCopy anymore.
Any clue?
If I right click on the assignment all I get is "open package" or "add to assignment" but the option "package for inCopy" has disappeared

No. It doesn’t work that way.
Everyone in this workflow needs to have the same fonts installed.

FM account assignments need to be assigned for each grantee year

Hi experts!!
I have a problem when i execute GM_REVAL (Revaluation of Currency for Grants Management). System gets an errror: FM account assignments need to be assigned for each grantee year (Message no. GRANTMGMT363).
I've customized FMDERIVE in order to derive Fund center, commitment item, grant and fund. And GMDERIVE to derive Sponsor Program and Sponsor class. In a FI postings (FB01 or FBCJ), these derivations works ok.
Anyone knows how can i solve this error?
Thank you.

Hello Dolors,
for the revaluation you need to maintain default FM settings in the
customizing. See IMG - GM - master data - revaluation. Note that these
FM master data objects must be valid throughout the budget validity
period.
I hope this helps..
Best regards,
Mar.

How to run Assignment in Series - Workflow can not connect two Assignments

Here is my scenario:
I have a custom repository with no Taxanomy table.
I want to run series of Assignments.
I defined 5 assignments.
Thought that I can use MDM Workflow to call them in series. However MDM Workflow does not let me connect one Assignmen Task to next Assignment Task.
How to run Assignments in Series, either using Workflow or by using someother mechanism.
Idealy it could have been nice to Group the Assignments like Validation.
Or even Much better powerful Assignment and Validation Script. Add "Script Documentation" to that please.
Thanks,
Abhay

I tested with 2 assignments.
I created 2 assignments.
My workflow definition has a Start, Assign1, Assign2, Stop.
Start -> Assign1
Assign1 -> Assign2
Assign2-> Assign3
They are connected in Series.
Make sure all the steps are connected properly.
I executed the workflow and the two fields in the table got the assigned values as the result of the workflow.
Check the version of your Data Manager. The DataManager I used to test this is of version 5.5.34.26.
A single workflow should suffice for your requirements.
However, there is a workaround for this.
You create 5 workflows each with a single assingment step.
For the <b>Stop Step</b> in the Workflow you have <b>Launch</b> Property.
In this case, for workflow1 you set the launch property to Workflow2.
For workflow2 set the launch property as workflow3.
This way you are calling separate workflows sequentially.

Problems locating assignments using InCopy/InDesign CS5

We have recently introduced an InDesign/InCopy CS5 workflow into our studio. We've come up against a big problem we are hoping someone can shed some light on.
1. We make an Assignment and package for InCopy.
2. The InCopy user edits, checks back in.
3. When opened back to InDesign, we get these two messages:
We are currently just in trial stage and are running between two different Mac OS (10.6.4 and 10.5.8) and sharing files off a PC server running Windows 2003. We changed from AFP to SMB to support longer character names. None of our file names have been moved, renamed or deleted in any way. When we 'Browse to locate the correct document', we go into a never-ending loop of finding and linking but not actually getting anywhere. If we just open the InDesign file, we get the red hexagon and question mark symbol. We click on it, select Update All Assignments, which it does and clears the hexagon symbol however, it duplicates the .imca file in our Assignments folder. Also once we save and reopen, we get the hexagon symbol again.
What could it be?

Bob,
We've discovered the problem, I wanted to let you know for future reference. It was to do with a third-party software plug-in we have called Blacklining. We originally used Blacklining in CS3 when all files we worked on needed the plug-in or even a dummy plug-in for anyone else in our studio or print houses to access. This was written out of CS4, however we migrated straight onto CS5 so therefore every previous document made in CS3 still had the Blacklining plug-in attached. We only ever put the plug-in into our Applications folder when packaging for print. So when the plug-in was not in the Applications folder, we got the problems described. When the plug-in was placed back in the folder, it worked seemlessly.

Can't Open Assignments in InCopy

Version of ID? IC? O/S?

Assignments for InCopy don't include fonts?

I am uncertain how InDesign and InCopy are handling fonts. After reading on Adobe.com about InCopy, I thought that using InDesign to send an assignment (an icap-file) via email, it would include all needed files (including fonts), because according to Adobe, the receiver has to worry about nothing, he opens the assignment in InCopy, fonts load automaticaly, all done. But after downloading the demo, some testing and searching on the internet for more information, it seems I was wrong and the receiver must have all needed fonts already installed on his computer or keep them in a "document fonts" folder right next to the icap-file. Is it not possible to include the needed fonts in the icap-file or am I doing it wrong? Is there a box somewhere that needs to be checked for the fonts to be included in the icap-file?
Thanks for any help.

No. It doesn’t work that way.
Everyone in this workflow needs to have the same fonts installed.

Cannot uninstall Mozilla Firefox 4.0.1, downloaded two days back using the control panel or the Revo Uninstaller.

I had downloaded Mozilla Firefox 2 days back, overriding the existing version 3.6.13.
But I find the new version rather unusable. I am very familiar with the FF 3.6 version, which I have been using over 2 years. Hence I would like to revert back to the earlier version 3.6.13.
Mozilla Help informed that I should first uninstall version 4.x and then reinstall the earlier version.''But I am unable to find the version 4.x, either through the Control Panel or through the program Revo Unistaller'''. '''How can I proceed to restore back the earlier version 3.6?'''

'''@jef001 :'''
Thanks for your helpful answer. However, now after a few trials and errors in using FF 4.0.1, I have got the hang of using the same fairly well and I shall continue with the same .
'''@Editor:'''
Thanks for your comments . I think that my wording in the question has caused some ambiguity. Actually, I updated using the Mozilla FF Help menu only. I was trying to '''uninstall''' the new version using the Revo Uninstaller, as I did not find the FF 4.0.1 in the Windows Uninstall List, and not '''installing''' it through Revo Uninstaller. However, my above reply to jef001, should clear up the issue of my continuing with FF 4.0.1 .

Terminated employees, uncertain end dating

I dont have much knowledge in HRMS. Could you please help me on my issue.
In our test instance for one employee, we have two assignments one is 'Active Assignment' and other one is 'Terminate assignment'.
Assignment effective start date effective end date Primary assignment type
Terminate assignment 13-FEB-12 30-APR-12 N E
Active Assignment 13-FEB-12 31-DEC-12 Y E
But in production some modifications happened 'Terminate Assignment' primary flag updated to 'Y' . In our test instance this 'Terminate Assignment' form is greyed out. Not able to change the primary flag in miscellaneous tab But how it is happened in production not sure. If you know please let us know how and/or where we can change the 'Terminate Assignment' primary flag.
for termination assignment
Actual termination Final Process Last Standard process
27-JAN-12 30-APR-12 27-JAN-12
after 30th April can we see this terminate assignment in the assignment form.
your help would be appreciated.

Hi Prashanth,
Once the Person is terminated, you cannot navigate to the Assignment form beyond the Final process date.
Thre dates on the termination form are important -
ATD - Actual term date
LSPD - Last std process date
FC - Final close
If all the three are the same, then you cannot navigate to the assignment form after the termination date.
If the LSPD or FC are different(always greater) to ATD, then you can navigate to the assignment form only till the FC date, but cannot amend any data, as you've already terminated the employee. All you can do is make some element entries and process payroll till FC date.
For your case, why can't you reverse terminate the employee, make all the changes as you need and then terminate the employee as of the correct date ?
Cheers,
VB

Data merged text into boxes assigned for InCopy doesn't display merged text, only the placeholder

I think I found a bug.
I created an InDesign document for use in InCopy for a client. The end goal is to data merge a whole array of documents for the client, who can open them in InCopy and update the text.
I designed the layout
I created the assignments for InCopy (which stories and images the InCopy user could edit)
I then set up a data merge to pre-populate content like contact details, portrait photos etc
When I merged the final document, two things happened.
The images didn't respond to the Content Placement Options (fill proportionally), they all just got placed at 100% size ratio (they did centre though)
The data merge fields didn't populate the placeholders with the relevant text. All of the fields just came up as their placeholders <<Phone>> <<Fax>> etc
As soon as I deleted the assignments and re-merged, the image settings were being applied and the fields were populating the documents.
I'm using the latest version on CC, 10.0.0.70.
Anyone else had this issue? It's very specific but it is a bug.

A couple of other users have reported similar problems, and it appears to be a bug when you go from preview to merge. If you undo out of preview, or skip it entirely, before hitting themerge button, does it work?

Two sliding panels/w tabs widgets on the same page?

I would like to use two of the same widget (Sliding Panels/w
tabs) on the same page.
How can I get two instances to function independently and not
break each other....?
I edited the sp_withTabs.js file by duplicating the first
section below copying it, modifying it, and then pasting it below
as the second section:
// Turn the slidingPanel region into a real sliding panel
widget.
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel").addClassName("SlidingPanels");
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel >
div").addClassName("SlidingPanelsContentGroup");
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel .SlidingPanelsContentGroup >
div").addClassName("SlidingPanelsContent");
sp2 = new Spry.Widget.SlidingPanels('slidingPanel');
// Turn the slidingPanel2 region into a real sliding panel
widget.
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel2").addClassName("SlidingPanels");
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel2 >
div").addClassName("SlidingPanelsContentGroup");
Spry.$$("#slidingPanel2 .SlidingPanelsContentGroup >
div").addClassName("SlidingPanelsContent");
sp2 = new Spry.Widget.SlidingPanels('slidingPanel2');
This actually gets the second instance to function properly,
but now the first instance is "frozen".

Chapman, i know its been a while
but where on the JS file is the part you changed?
I cant find that in mine
check out my page:
http://www.pupr.edu/department/industrial/students.asp
Im trying to do that same thing, but a sliding panel inside another one.
The one inside isnt being recognized as a slliding panel, im thinking its the same problem you were having.
If you need me to copy the .js file let me know!
This is working with the Spry Sliding Panels Widget

Two more options in the paragraph styles panel

I would like two options in the paragraph styles panel.
1.
The posibility to set the 'Sort by name' option as a default or persistent
2.
The ability to label the styles with colors

Let me second the motion for a persistent "Sort by name" option for the Paragraph Styles panel.
In addition, somebody at Abobe "improved" the Paragraph style "Basic Character Formats" menu for CS6 by sabotaging the natural progression of tabbing directly from setting the *Font Size* to setting the *Leading* amount. Why would anyone at Adobe think that going from *font size* to *kerning* is an improvement for design professionals?
