Why does anchoring break word wrap?

I have a 200+ page typical book--one big column per page (two facing pages), and about 30 images/illustrations scattered throughout the book (at most one image per page). Most of the images are, say, half the column wide, and I want the text to flow around them. So I place the image in a reasonable spot and select Word Wrap | Wrap Around Bounding Box. Looks great so far. Then I anchor it--and the first line of text flows UNDER the image frame. Release the anchor and it word wraps correctly. When it's anchored I've tried both Wrap Around Bounding Box and Wrap Around Object, and various other word wrap options--the first line of text still wraps under the image frame. But all is well once I release the anchor. I'm a newbie--what am I missing?

It seems to not-work-as-expected if I place the anchor in text that is being word wrapped--that is, anywhere horizontal to the image. If I place the anchor in text above the image, that isn't being wrapped, it appears to work as expected. Sadly, this would suggest that if I want to place an image next to the paragraph that references it, and place the anchor inside the paragraph that references the image, that word wrapping won't work.

Why does page-break-before get replaced with br class hcp10?

why does <br style="page-break-before: always;"> get replaced with <br class="hcp10">
This issue only occurs when generating an HTML Help CHM file.

An alternative method can be found in Item 23 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#content.
Are you saying the code in the source file gets changed? I suspect you mean target files but how are you identifying the change in a CHM? Is the change causing a problem?

Why does Photoshop crash Word?

Hi
I'm running Photoshop CS5 (version 12.0.4 x64) on Windows 64 bit, and I'm having a strange problem to which I've not been able to find the solution. When I start up PS, if MS Word is open, nine times out of ten Word will crash. Word doesn't tell me why, and I can't understand what the connection between the two programs might be. Does anyone have any ideas?
FYI, my machine is an i7-2600 with 12 Gb RAM, so memoryand speed shouldn't be an issue.
Thanks for any thoughts or advice.
Peter

That did not give any additional info so at am a loss for answers.
Perhaps someone else has an answer.
Crashes in PS are usually cased by drivers, or fonts.
Not a computer geek to determine what kind of a tie there would be between the two porgram. But perhaps an unusual font in Word?

Why does firefox turn word documents into firefox documents??

wen i want to print a word document attached in an email I've received firefox won't open it and when i try to save the document to print it later instead firefox wants to save the document as a firefox document. If i change the format to word document and then save it, it can't be opened at all...
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== i started using firefox instead of explorer

Hello Myrorna.
You may be having an usability problem with the email service you are using. Are you sure you are not seeing the word document in an online document viewer? Firefox doesn't read word documents, so it's not possible for Firefox to save documents as a word document.
Unless you are using an add-on for such effect, in which case you need to contact its author for support.

Automatic word wrapping in context help window?

Hello together
I don't get the way how labview does the automatic word wrapping in the context help window. Does somebody know that?
regards
Woodi

I see my problem. Everytime I do just a single carriage return, or a return, the automatic line wrapping doesn't work. But it works fine, if I do two carriage returns.
This is actually not exactly what I want, but at least the user doesn't have to scroll.

Why does setOpaque(false) on Mac interfere with functionality of JSlider?

Hello, here is an SSCCE with a slider that works normally on my PC:
import javax.swing.*;
public class Foobar extends JApplet
     public void init()
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.setOpaque(false);
          panel.add(new JSlider());
          setContentPane(panel);
}But on my sister's Mac, the slider functionality is broken: one cannot drag the thumb with the mouse. To move the thumb, she has to click on the rail. If I comment out the setOpaque(false) call, then everything works fine.
I need that setOpaque call and I want the program to work both on Mac and PC. Why does it break on the Mac and how to fix it? Thank you for your insight. Mark

So then you haven't actually ran that SSCCE on a MAC then? No, no, she ran it on her Mac, my sis. I asked her to run it several times, and she definitely cannot move the thumb. Now, if I comment out the setOpaque(false), then she can move it all right.
But, I found a workaround. I did not realize that before, that Apple actually does include the "cross-platform" look and feel, not only their own Aqua. On the Sun website, it sort of implies that Apple only has Aqua, but on Apple website, I found they also support the cross-platform look.
And voila, I changed to the cross-platform, and now, everything works. Not only the sliders in non-opaque panels, but I had also a HUGE number of other problems getting my app to work on the Mac, and now, with the cross-platform look, they all disappeared!!
Thank you.
Mark

Filedown has a nasty reputation in English-speaking countries - plenty of antivirus/antimalware apps block everything there by default, which is what Peter has done. It doesn't mean that your link is malicious, only that it's hosted somewhere that has been used to host malware in the past.
I'm pretty sure, Peter, that there aren't any nonbreaking spaces there, because I'd wager that there aren't any spaces there at all. It's justified text, and the reasons why it will or will not break are sometimes obscure when using composers that aren't the J composer. Chinese text is usually entirely free of spaces, except in certain circumstances, usually involving European language inserted into Chinese text. Sometimes, for reasons I don't understand, InDesign will simply treat Chinese as if it were English, and only break at spots permissible in Euro languages. That's not the case here - it obviously breaks between two Chinese glyphs, so something else is up here.
Which version of InDesign are you using? Are you keying the text directly into InDesign, or are you placing, or copying/pasting?
If you're using an English version of InDesign, I would suggest trying to save your Chinese text as raw text or RTF and File -> Place that. If you choose RTF, try to mark it with Chinese language in your RTF editor (Word?) if possible.
Is No Break applied anywhere in your text? You can check in the Story editor (Control/Command Y) to see what styles and formatting are applied.

Hi Judy,
Deleting the Preferences files seems to be missing from your list.
Quit AppleWorks,
In the Finder, go to:
username > Library > Preferences
In the Preferences folder:
Locate and Delete the File com.apple.appleworks.plist
Locate and Open the Folder AppleWorks
In the AppleWorks folder, delete the following files:
AppleWorks 6 Assistants Cache
AppleWorks 6 Preferences
AppleWorks 6 Translators Cache
Optional:
AppleWorks Button Bars
This file contains your Button Bar preferences. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, but hanve NO issues that can be traced to the Button Bar, it may be left in place.

Read Only TextAreas with Carriage Return, Line Breaks and Word Wrapping

Hi all,
I know there are a few posts around this subject but I cannot find the answer to the exact problem I have.
I have a page that has a 'TextArea with Character Counter' (4000 Chars) that is conditionally read only based on the users credentials (using the 'Read Only' attributes of the TextArea item).
When the field is editable (not Read Only) everything works fine but when I make the field Read Only I start to have problems:
The first problem is that the Carriage Return and Line Breaks are ignored and the text becomes one continuos block. I have managed to fix this by adding pre and post element text of pre and /pre tags. This has made the Carriage Return and Line Breaks word nicely and dispaly correctly.
However, it has introduced a second problem. Long lines, with no Carriage Returns or Line Breaks, now extend to the far right of the page with no word wrapping, making my page potentially 4000+ characters wide.
How can I get the field to be display only, with recognised Carriage Returns and Line Breaks, and Word Wrapping inside a fixed width of, say, 150 characters?
Many thanks,
Martin

Hi,
Just a cut and paste of yours with the field name changed:
htp.p('<script>');
htp.p('$x("P3_COMMENTS").readonly=true;');
htp.p('</script>');I also have the following in the page HTML Header, could they be conflicting?
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function setReleaseToProd(wpTypeCode){
//setReleaseToProd($v(this))
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=set_release_to_prod',0);
get.addParam('x01',wpTypeCode);
gReturn = get.get();
if(gReturn) {
$s('P3_RELEASE_TO_PROD',gReturn);
get = null;
</script>I am a long way from knowing much about Javascript (this page code was written by someone else) so all help is much appreciated.

Word wrap in nano does not work.

Hello, I am trying to word wrap in nano the way it does in notepad and gedit (new line once you reach the edge of the screen/window). However, when I try nano -w rick.sh it give me the help screen and I see that -w is not an option. When I use set nowrap in the ~/.nanorc it says nowrap isn't recongized, also, -r <y> fails to work as well. What should I do?
Last edited by fawx (2008-10-15 01:34:45)

The reason might be the configure-parameter "--disable-wrapping" in nano's PKGBUILD. I would try this: get the PKGBUILD, remove the parameter, run makepkg. If makepkg finishes successfully, remove the nano-packages installed from repository and replace with the new created package.

Why does running PDF Maker or Save As PDF cause MS Word 2013 to fail?

BizGuru,
Somethings to consider.
--| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
-| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
--| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
--| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
Be well...

Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

Word 2013 uses its own pdf creator engine as far as I know. The step I performed were:
1 - In the save settings I told word to embed fonts (sorry for the language, I have the Italian client)
2 - Export from Word -> Save As -> .pdf adding also the table of contents/index
N.B. I cannot use PDF/A, and in any case it doesn't embed the font
A working solution is to use Acrobat XI to convert it or print with Adobe PDF printer, results:
The problems are 2:
1 - It doesn't create any bookmark and doesn't create links from the table of images to the linked images
2 - Images, also with the preset "High Quality Printing" customized using "No compression", are really ugly and if you zoom a bit more than 100% they totally be s**t. It wasn't that way with PDF created by word.
In the end, or I find they way to open the pdf created by word and embedd the missing font, or I find a way to make Acrobat XI creating bookmarks from the word file.
Suggestion?

Why does word for mac 2011 error

When I am using the word for mac that came installed on my Mac Book Pro, it frequently errors and has to close and I loose my work. Even though I choose the option to send the report and recover my work, i have lost many things.
Why does this happen?

To my knowledge, Apple does not supply MacBook Pros with MS Word installed.
Pls specify exactly what app and what version you are talking about. If it is really MS Word, then it's possible it wasn't correctly installed. You should re-install MS Office, and then update it, if applicable.

Site does not dispay column in one line(word wrap) but correctly dispays in IE8.

When I upgraded to FF23, the display on one page will break as follows<br />
SummaryNewsChartsResearchValue AnalyzerTechnicalInsightEstimatesCompany ProfileFinancialsOptions<br />
but in IE8 it displays as<br />
SummaryNewsChartsResearchValueAnalyzerTechnicalInsightEstimatesCompanyProfileFinancialsOptions<br />
Each word is surrounded by a box, but cut and paste does not include the surrounding boxes.<br />
In addition, one page does not break a column of data, but overlays it onto the first data column. I use column to mean two separate page data elements of text. When I use the View, Page Style, No Style the page displays the data correctly spaced. I have tried different fonts, but have been unable to correct the display. I have tried disabling plugins but not change.

If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
