Ways to Add Lines?

The New York Times website uses lots of fine gray lines to separate content. What's the best way to put these into a site? Do they use CSS? Any tips or tricks to doing this?
Thanks.

Lots of carefully planned CSS borders.

Is there a way to add line numbers in the margin?

Is there a way to automatically add line numbers in the margin of a document?

Hi Brian,
If you go with Peter's suggestion, there are some details that since I've got a minute here, I'll mention...
Set your Line Spacing for the document text to "Exactly" before you begin adjusting your table, otherwise you will have registration problems.
Your Table will have to be a Floating object. Otherwise you won't be able to slide it into the margin. And, speaking of the margin, stay out of the gray area with the numbers if you want to print them. The gray border around your document is the area that the printer driver says is non-printable.
In the Table Inspector, set Columns to 1 and Rows to 20 or whatever you prefer for your document. Set the number of Header Rows to 0.
To apply the numbering, use the Fill feature: Type 1 in the first cell, type 2 in the second cell. Select both cells. Grab the Fill Handle in the lower right corner of the selection and drag it down to add a series of numbers to the rest of the column. (Easier than typing.)
Decide how you want to justify the numbering. The Text Inspector has both vertical and horizontal justification controls for this. Just select the entire table and make the settings.
Set the cell height to match the text line spacing. You can get close with the table row height, and maybe closer with a minor line spacing adjustment. Don't expect perfection, but you can get pretty close.
You probably don't want the cell borders to show, so with the entire table selected, go to the Graphic Inspector and set Stroke to None.
Lastly, cause the table to appear on every page by doing: Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.

Is there any way to add PO no and corresponding line item of PO in VL32N?

Hello,
The scenario is, we have created the IBD and deleted one of the line item and saved it.
We went to VL32N and added the missing line item to IBD but PO number and corresponding item number of PO field of newly added line items are grayed out. We are not able to add PO number in VL32N screen.
Is there any way to add PO number and corresponding line item of PO in VL32N screen of IBD? Our client does not want to create new IBD for same PO. He wants to add the line item in same IBD.
Thanks,

Acrobat v9 JavaScript Alert Box - any way to add space or line break after each array item?

I have a Document level Javascript used to identify blank required fields and is triggered on document actions, Print and Save. The script identifies the blank required fields, counts them, and outputs to an Alert box indicating the number of required fields blank and lists the fields by tooltip name. The script identifies the required fields by an asterisk at the end of each tool tip.
My question is there any way to add a space or a line break after the comma for each listed item?
Here is an image of the output where the listed items are all run together.
Here is the code:
function validateFields()
//a counter for the number of empty fields
var flg = 0
// count all the form fields
var n = this.numFields
//create an array to contain the names of required fields
//if they are determined to be empty
var fArr = new Array();
//loop through all fields and check for those that are required
// all fields that have a '*' in their tool tip are required
for(var i = 0;i<n;i++){
var fn = this.getNthFieldName(i);
var f = this.getField(fn);
//tool tip is the fields\'s 'userName' property;
var tt = f.userName
//test for the '*';
if(tt.indexOf('*')!=-1 && f.value == f.defaultValue){
//increment the counter of empty fields;
flg++;
//add the fields userName (tool tip) to the list of empty field names;
fArr[fArr.length] = tt;
//now display a message if there are empty fields
if(flg>0){
app.alert('There are '+flg+' fields that require a value\n\n'+ fArr,3)
else{
this.print();

Thank you! The alert box array items now have a line break, image below. You know you have made my day and possibly several weeks as now I have more understanding about how to apply everything I have been reading in the Acrobat JavaScript guide and of course as soon as you pointed out using a "join", that triggered some old-days of working with Access and SQL queries.
I will work on the required attribute to see how I might reference it. I am laughing at myself now - good luck to me in figuring it out as I was very stick-in-the-mud regarding the line break issue.
Thanks again and here is the result of the updated code:

Is there an easy way to add a sketch to Apple Email?

I struggled with a new-to-me sketch program that I found on an Internet website, but I was finally able to copy and paste it to an Email message. It was supposed to have been easier than that, but that was the best I could do.I then realized that I had to add a few lines and notes. That got me to thinking. By now, you'd think that there would be an easy way to add graphic material to Apple Email. Is there?
I have an iMac.

Is there a way to add an existing distribution list to a document?

i created a distribution list with CVI1 and i am trying to add it to a document, NOT via the distribution list but from the document itself.
via the "environment" menu, I can create a new list or change a list in which the document is already written in: but i cannot add an existing list from the document.
any idea?

i am aware of that: that i why i asked this question. i need to upload distribution lists to be added to documents and i did not find a way to add the documents to the list (cvi2) in a recording: the amount of document i can add is limited to the amount of lines i see on the screen;
my final goal is to add existing lists to documents or documents to lists, via upload (excel sheet or txt file) LSMW or other methods!
any idea is welcome: i have searched and not found solutions

Hello again
The bottom line here is that it IS possible to add a button for this to the CHM toolbar. This is described at the link below:
Click here to view
The possibly bad news here is that RoboHelp doesn't lend itself to easily allowing you to do it. I tried a few times yesterday with no success.
If you are willing to make edits in RoboHelp, then step outside of RoboHelp and use the Microsoft HTML Help Workshop to compile your CHM, you might be able to achieve it.
I would also heartily encourage you (and others) to file this as an enhancement request with Adobe.

Add line to address book?

I know it's possible to add a line to a contact's street address but how can I add a line for a town or a suburb?
I've looked in abaddressformats.plist and there seems to be a possibility but everything I've tried seems to be ignored by address book.
Any ideas?

I'm not sure if there is a way to add an Address2 field, but if you are typing the in Address field and press enter, you will start a new line just below the Address filed. It is still technically one field, but will appear as two lines, hopefully giving you the desired result.

Fastest way to add multiple images, one after the other, in DW5.5

There has to be a faster way to add multiple images, one after the other, in a web page rather than just dragging each from the Files tab w/in DW 5.5
I was a little surprized I couldn't select multiple images and just drag a block and have DW just insert an img tag with empty alts and the source path but maybe there is some options I just haven't found?
I tried using Bridge to generate a quick html slideshow/gallery but it creates skads of divs and such... I just have to update an older site and was looking for an efficient way to add a bunch of images (random names ugh so just copying-pasting one and changing names is still more manual) that lie next to each other, no breaks inbetween....seems an ideal automated situation.
I'd settle for an external script or app or something because they come in blocks of 25 approx and I have all my actions in PS set up to size appropriately which is nice so I just wondered if there was something good for this low-level production task.
Thanks

Thanks. Yes, I started writing a script but I just wondered if there were hidden gems in DW....so many programs do more than they are intended to do nowadays, I had to ask people who use it more!
Actually, the fastest was to just dupe one line of code, paste x amount and then just use the pick-wip to point and drag. That at least cut the menu out of the equation.
I thought I remembered doing a batch insert years ago..maybe in GoLive or before Adobe had DW? DW and GoLive are the only GUI html editors I've ever used..but, may it was just something out of an ealier photoshop...they've taken good stuff out and put good stuff in so many times that I can only remember so much!

Looking for a way to add more signatures

I'm creating a form that has a standard orginator and approver signature blocks. Is there a button or another way to add additional approver signature blocks if needed? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Catherine -
Depends on the type of signature block you are looking to add. If a secured digital signature, then those do not allow you to add in dynamically from what I see. If the signature block is just a holding spot for an ink signature then you could put in code to duplicate a subform that contains the signature block.
A work around for a digital signature is to create several signature blocks and make them hidden until a check box is selected, or something along those lines.
If ink signature blocks then put your signature block objects in a subform, call it "SigBlock" for example. Make sure the form is setup as dynamic, and set the subforms as flowed to avoid overwirting any info underneath. You could place a button that states something like "Click to add signature" and put this code under the CLICK event:
Page._SigBlock.addInstance(1);
xfa.form.recalculate(1);
If digital signatures then you'll want to embed Positioned subforms inside flowed subforms so that all materials flow, but the actual digital signature is in a fixed location. Be sure to set your FILE - FORM PROPERTIES - DEFAULTS to "Manually" on scripting and check the box titled "Enforce Strict Scoping". Then setup all your digital signature blocks, and when all formatted properly you could add in some hidden checkboxes that are set to CALCULATED, and have code under those that check status of a user checkbox to add signatures. If != 1, then the calculated field could tell the form to hide the signature block. If == 1 then the block unhides. Inside that block can be another user selected checkbox to add another signature, another hidden calculate field, etc. I would do this instead of setting up hidden properties in the form INITIALIZE setting since you may not want to hid those blocks everytime the form is loaded.
A tad complicated, but it works!

The correct way to add a second CSS file

Running Creator 2U1 on Windows XP
What is the correct way to add a second CSS file to the project?
here is a section of the Page1.JSP file:
<ui:head binding="#{Page1.head1}" id="head1">
<ui:link binding="#{Page1.link1}" id="link1" media="all" url="/resources/stylesheet.css"/>
</ui:head>
simply duplicating the line as such crashes the application:
<ui:head binding="#{Page1.head1}" id="head1">
<ui:link binding="#{Page1.link2}" id="link2" media="print" url="/resources/print.css"/>
</ui:head>
How to do it??
Thanks

The method provided does bring the css file into the current environment
However, I need to actually have the pages use the information within the stylesheet
I guess I need to know how to get the css entry into the JSP page
As noted earlier, simply including the (second not counting the master) css file into project and duplicating the "stylesheet.css entry (changing the link1 to link2) causes the application to fail on the "link2" entry
can anyone help me here..
Thanks

You can make all hidden menu entries visible with this code in userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

Quick way to add multiple transitions?

Hi
I producing a slideshow of about 100 still images and want to put a cross disolve between each picture. Is there a way to add all the transitions in one go?
Many thanks.
Adrian

P.S You may wish to change the duration of each clip to about 5 seconds ,the default I think is 10 which may be a bit too long.
If you know how to do this then please ignore the following. In the browser next to each clip you will see the duration tag - click in the duration and enter 5 instead of 10.
Then drop all the clips in the canvas with the insert with transition option.
To change the length -style of the transition applied to all the clips you then simply select all the clips on the time line (click on timeline and command click + a) then drag them to the viewer. You can now edit the effects parameters.
Also, if you wish to change to the effect applied to all the clips you can by changing the effect from the effects menu at this point. This will then replace the effect displayed in the viewer, to the top right of the viewer you will see a icon with a hand over it, drag and drop this to the canvas and the effect will change on all the clips.
If you know all the above, which you probably do, then sorry for going over old ground.
Im probably doing it wrong anyway.
Thanks

I create a birthday calendar in iCal and then click on it in iphoto at the begining of the calendar project each year. Some how the birthday did not populate the photo calendar. Is there a way to add the birthday iCal calendar into the calendar project?

I created a birthday calendar to use in iphoto for calendar. When a new calendar project is started each year, I click on it in. Some how the birthday did not populate the photo calendar this year. The photo calendar is almost complete. Is there a way to add the birthday iCal calendar into the calendar project? I would prefer not to start over.

Hi,
If you first select the calendar on the left, so that its background is highlighted blue/grey, when you make a new events they should be added to that calendar.
Best wishes
