Unable to set columns under Layout Margins and Columns
On certain pages in my 40 page document, I am unable to set the number of columns by using Layout>Margins and Columns. The columns option is dimmed out. I have tried to set them on a blank page and pages where columns were previously set (I can see the guides). I am using a single Master for page numbering and it is applied to every page in the document. There are pages where I can set the columns. I've done some page comparison and can't find the setting that might control this. Using InDesign CS6 on Windows. Thank you.
Why are you not using multiple column text frames instead of 2 text frames with columns on the master page? This would give more flexiblity.

Service Desk Unable to set status to Customer Action and Proposed Solution
Hi Everyone,
We are unable to set a service desk issue to the status Customer Action or Proposed solution.
I have someone create a new issue in the bakend system and when I receive the issue I assign it to myself as the processor. When I try to set teh status to Customer action it is grayed out.
I have checked the following:
1. As a test I assigned My user with sap_all profile so does not appear to be authroisation related
2. The status profile has all six standard values (New, customer action, In Process, Sent to SAP, Proposed Solution, Confirmed).
3. The transaction types have been defined using the standard profiles for Text Det. Procedure, Partnet Determination Procedure, Status Profile. The Partner Function ORG is set to Sold-To-Party , The date profile is a SRV_SLA_ITEM and the Action profile is set to SLFN0001_ADVANCED. The Org Data Prof is set to a customer defined one: ZSSC000000001.
4. I have checked transaction ppoma_crm and the org structure and my user is assigned to a team lead position.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
MichaelHi Michael,
please check your status profile for the "lowest status no." and "highest status no." values of the status values as Alex mentioned!
You can find this in SPRO under "SAP Solution Manager> Scenario-Specific Settings>Service Desk>Service Desk>Status Profile".
If the "high" value of the status "New" is lower than the status number of status "Customer Action" than you can not set the message from "New" to "Customer Action"!
Hope this helps,

JTable about selection mode, setting a Color to rows and column.
I need an application with a table containing Double and String data. When the table is shown the Double data must be shown as selected. I need a special kind of selection mode similar to MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION but it must be a mode as if CONTROL was pressed when the user left clicks the table so he or she can select and deselect columns without deselecting those wich have been selected previously... Besides I need to paint columns and rows only if they have certain conditions. This is an example of what I have done so far... The selection mode is what is really important.

}Interesting concept! This is what I have tried and it works, but in the application I need the user to deselect the columns he wants only by left clicking on them... This is the main idea: there will be lots of columns (String and Double data). The user must deselect the Double columns he or she does not want to be processed... Maybe with a boolean array that changes it state if a user left clicks a column... but I suppose this method is called only once to initialize the table, isn't it? Thanks.

table = new JTable( new MyOwnTableModel() ) {
public boolean isCellSelected(int row, int column) {

I am not sure whats going wrong, but I am unable to save variants.
Please help.
Thanks,
Vishal.The F4 will display you the existing layouts only. So you need to save the layout first & then execute the report again & check if you are getting F4 values for that field.
The Layout needs to get stored with variant.

When I used Internet Explorer and used the pull-down menu, the categories I set up displayed and the bookmarks under each category displayed as well. I've now set up folders in Firefox under "uncategorized bookmarks," but when I pull down Bookmarks, neither the categories nor the bookmarks appear. Have I set up the categories properly? If so, how can I make the sorted bookmarks appear?

Unable to set wireless connection with imac and Canon MX860 printer ...
I recently converted to a Mac and bought a Mac Book, iMac, Airport Extreme, and a Canon MX860 printer. i have installed the canon software numerous times on my iMac to set up the wireless connection. yes, the airport extreme recognizes the printer and i am able to connect to my private and guest networks. the signal strength is good. It's the next part that I'm always stuck at. The Printer settings does not display when i choose More Printers and select Canon IJ Network. I called Apple support and we tried changing my network settings to an unsecured network and it still has the same issue. It was recommended this may be Canon driver issue and advised me to contact Canon. I reset the Airport, changed my network name and password .. i think i tried everything and it still does not work. What was I thinking when i said i wanted to convert to Mac? I can't move forward and connect my macbook or pc yet until I successfully connect the imac. Yes, i installed the latest canon IJ Network tool. of course the USB connection is fine but that defeats the whole purpose if why i bought this printer. please advise how to fix. this is getting very frustrating.
Some help at http://store.apple.com/us/product/TV352LL/A perhaps in the comments.
And maybe at http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PIXMA-MX860-Wireless-Printer/product-reviews/B001R4C 5BK in the comments.
"I ran into the same network installation issue that I've seen in other Canon printers. Canon's network setup forces you to connect by USB cable first. Only after you tell the program that you want to use the computer over the network can you remove the USB cable, move the printer if needed, and if you're using a wired connection, reconnect a network cable. The process isn't particularly difficult, but it's more cumbersome than what other printers let you do, which is simply put the printer where you want it, plug in an Ethernet cable, and install the software." source = http://shop.pcmag.com/shop/product/pcmag/84634068.aspx?SB=6&OB=1
"MAC wireless network printer setup requires turning off firewall, and works fine if you leave firewall off (not recommended). If you set firewall at "essential connections only," wireless networked MX860 won't work. You must add MP navigator and solution apps to your firewall enabled list. Then it worked fine on the admin account, but still won't work on users account which required additional permission settings and selections. After 2 hours it worked fine, but I would've expected better instruction manual for MAC." source = http://cnet.nytimes.com/multifunction-devices/canon-pixma-mx860/4852-3181_7-3352 9769.html
"The only trouble that I have had with this machine is setting up the wireless network. The manual instructions are impossible for me to understand and I ended up having to call for assistance. Which easily solved the problem. And again when I had to reconfigure my network settings it was impossible to follow the logarithm of instructions in the manual. Again I needed to call for assistance. If I need help after the year manufacture's warranty I will be charged for these calls." source = http://www.zimbio.com/InkjetPrinter+Reviews/articles/1932/Canon+PIXMA+MX860+Wireless+One+PhotoPrinter
Even Windows people have trouble:
"I NEED INTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CONNECT MY HP LAPTOP TO THE CANON MX860 PRINTER."
"I'm with you. I have my mx860 connected usb to my pc with the printer being shared but my wireless laptop can't find it no matter what I try."
And, unhappy Vista person:
"I had high hopes for this printer - it seemed to have it all. But the wireless feature never worked, it only worked on my gigabit network for about two weeks (only THREE print jobs including the test print), and never observed it to work via USB - Vista (x64 Ultimate) would throw an error saying it could not attach the device." -

How to set tabs and how to set them outside the margins of my main body of text
I type lots of docs where I have a body of text, indented, and then there is an action letter, A,B,C etc, out to the right. Can't see how to set the body of text plus separate tab outside the margin in Pages. Could do it in MS Word. Pages looks great, but I'm stuck on a few things I used to do. Can anyone help?
ThanksHi Peter
Thanks for the reply.
Here is a sample of the text:
you'll see that the D, C, B etc are squashed up to the text, I can't move their tab outside the margin. On Word (dare I say it?) I could set my right hand margin and still have a tab further out. Don't know that your anchoring idea is the thing. Is there another way to limit my text? I wonder about columns, although then all the ABCs will be in the second won't they?
Any ideas?
Thanks again

Setting number of rows and columns
How do I set the number of rows and columns of a table, say 2348 rows by 3 columns?
Then how do I quickly select the last row?
Also, if I enter a formula in row 1 column 2, how do I quickly copy that formula down to row 1435, or to the end of the column? Dragging seems slow and awkward.I wish to add a few words to Jerrold responce.

The process that you describe is inefficient.
The efficient one is :
create a table
enter the formulas in a single row
delete the rows below.
Now, each newly inserted row will contain the formulas.
From my point of view, it's when this is done that it will be interesting to apply a script adding rows.
Here is a script inserting rows.
--[SCRIPT insertRows]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : insertRows.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Sélectionner une cellule au-dessous de laquelle vous voulez insérer des lignes.
menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
Le script vous demande le nombre de lignes désiré puit insère celles-ci.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
--=====
Save the script as a Script: insertRows.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Select a cell below which you want to insert rows.
menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
The script ask you the number of rows to insert then it does the required insertion.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.
Save this script as a … Script in the "Folder Actions Scripts" folder

New User Question: How do I find ALL of my setting for my layout once I'm working on it?
I'd like to get screen captures of my settings for each project I do so that I have them for refference.
Thank you!!!OK, I think you're basically on the right track, but I think converting your files to templates might be more useful than printouts. Templates contain the master pages (which is where margins and columns are typically changed from the defaults set during initial Document Setup (or they may not be changed from those defaults at all), all the styles defined for the project, and all the color swatches that have been defined, so you don't need to reinvent the wheel, only choose from among the available selections. They can also have page elements (headers and footers, page numbers, placeholder frames for standard layouts, etc.) predefined or in place.
You can make any file into a template just by saving as one (File > Save As... and choose Template from the file type dropdown), or by changing the file extension to .indt. The only functional difference between a document file and a template file is that when opened "normally" documents open as original, so you are editing the actual document, and templates open as an untitled copy, so you are editing the copy and won't accidentally change the template. You can delete essentially all the content (other than objects on a master page) from any file and save as a template and have everything you need to make a new file using the same parameters.
There are scripts available to tell you what styles are defined in a document (you can google for InDesign Style Reporter script, I think), and there may be others that will give you other parameters. There may be something like that in the Blatner Tools plugin, too. If you want one comprehensive script you may need to pay someone to custom write it for you, but it would be worth a trip to the scripting forum (InDesign Scripting) to see what is already written that might help you if you want reports. -
Layout Margins | Second page of section marked 'first page is different'
I have some custom formatting for the first page of a section, marked in Inspector with 'First page is different': with a 3cm upper margin to set text to start below a banner image embedded in the section master.
However the second page of that section is not settable with a separate layout margin, and since the the banner on the second page is different, I need it to be.
Any ideas?j,
You would have to put the Page Break and Section Break into your Template, so you would begin with two pages and two layouts already there.
You are getting into Page Layout territory here. At some point it's just easier to pre-define the whole document in a Page Layout format. It all depends on where you are going with this.

Hi,
I´m trying to reduce scale on a group of objects;a map, some lines with arrows and shade and also text blocks. When I´m trying to reduce the size of the group the message "unable to set bounding box" pops up and its impossible to continue scaling. It has happened with different files and objects, always the same message.
I´m using Indesign CS3 5.03 on Xp professionalOkay....stupid fix worked. I was having this problem with a dieline for a package. Came out of the blue as I have done this countless time before with out any problem. Today, however, CS4 is feeling stubborn.
Well, I ungrouped it. Grouped it again. Now it works fine.
Go figure.
Hope this works for someone else as well! -

If the word "Off" is sort of cloudy and the settings are greyed out - that means you do not have restrictions enabled - but just in case - do you use a passcode to lock the iPad?
Exactly what message are you getting and where are you getting the message - what does the "email icon" mean? -
How to create a document with sections that differ in margin and layout
I'm trying to add a pages document 'B' into my new pages document 'A'.
A and B have two entirely different layouts and different document margins. So whenever i copy B into A, B's margins become A's margins and thus B's layout turns into a mess.
I tried adding a section break, column break, layout break.. None resolves the issues.
All ideas on this are appreciated.
Thank you.A document has the same size, orientation and margins throughout.
You can however set the minimum margins and use Layout breaks to position text and images within that.
In practice it is best to keep the two separate and combine the finished sets as .pdfs.
