Word 2008 line spacing.. is single space and double space all messed up?

Very basic here: in print layout view (only one I am using) the single spacing and double spacing seem so far apart. Single spacing is way too far apart. Is anyone else seeing this?

That is the issue. I am hitting enter and getting a big space. I see a similar thing in Pages. All I know is tht in 2004 version, I start all my papers with 4 lines in top corner (name-enter/date-enter/assignment/class#-enter) I do these with single space just by default on Word.
THen I go to format-paragraph-double space, and do my writing--double spaced.
This is weird to me. I like word 2008, looks nice, notebook is cool. But I don't like having to re-learn that stuff. Is this how everybody does this? Everyone out of the box can not just type and choose single/double space? We have to edit some paragraph spacing? HUH?

  • The Property Inspector is missing the V Space and H Space fields in DW6 - where did they go?

    I just downloaded DW6.  The Property Inspector is missing the V Space and H Space fields, therefore I am unable to add space around my images.  Suggestions?

    It is no longer available because the problem with that was that it applied spaces around the image rather than where the user actually wanted them.  You now need to use CSS and apply margins and paddings and target exactly where you want them by using something like this:
    img {
        margin-bottom: 0;
        margin-right: 0;
        margin-left: 0;
        margin-top: 0;
        padding-top: 0;
        padding-right: 0;
        padding-bottom: 0;
        padding-left: 0;
    img {
         border: 0;
         padding: 0;
    The second style is generic to set margin and padding for all four sides.
    Good luck.

  • How can I change or reduce the line spacing to single in a "multiple lines of text" column in a list?

    We keep many logs in a simple list format. One of the columns requires a description using the "multiple lines of text" default column. Sometimes the person making the entry needs to complete about 20-30 lines of text. Users are requesting we reduce
    the amount of space advanced between lines to save space and be more concise. Is there a way to reduce the line spacing for the column entries to single spacing without code?
    Maree N Percival

    We determined that the site column settings were incorrect for allowing single spacing, we changed the site column setting from "Enhanced rich text (Rich text with pictures, tables, and hyperlinks)" to  "Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)"
    and it is now keeping the text in single spaced lines.
    <label for="onetidRichText">Specify the type of text to allow:</label> 
    <input id="onetidRichTextPlain" name="RichText" title="Plain text" type="radio" value="PLAIN" />
    <label for="onetidRichTextPlain">Plain text   </label>
    <input id="onetidRichTextCompatible" name="RichText" title="Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)" type="radio" value="COMPATIBLE" />

  • Problems with Word Doc line spacing

    I have multiple word docs to bring in and each time, all though the word doc is formatted like I need (italic headers, diff font sizes etc…) Indesign brings it in double spaced although it is not that way in the word doc. At this point I am having to go to the end of each line, delete to bring the next line to the end of that one, then shift+enter to drop it down 1 line. I have 11 documents that are 5-10 pages each…. Is there a way to avoid having to do all of that??? I have tried tweaking the leading via the justification panel as I saw on another site, but it has no effect. Brought in a different document, formatted exactly the same as above. This time it kept the space right, but when I narrowed the text box to fit where I needed it, instead of lines just dropping down as they should, they are actually laying on top of each other. I am at a complete loss.... ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

    Don't use Word styles in InDesign. Set up InDesign styles which will replace word styles when text is imported into InDesign. Word styles have different parameters as InDesign styles have. You can't compare them, every imported Word style will make a mess in InDesign. You can set up once the style in InDesign and create a template upon file import how Word Styles are translated into the InDesign styles.

  • How to handle both single click and double click from mouse

    hey,
    I looked in past threads and didn't get a proper answer for capturing both single and double click from the mouse.
    in most applications the single click action does not interfere with the double click action, for example in a text editor, single click sets the cursor in between the text, double click marks a word, triple click marks a sentence, they do not bother each other, they all can happen first the single then the double and then the triple, but what if i have a very distinct action for each of the actions, the e.getClickCount() returns every time the number of clicks and if i use
    if(e.getClickCount()==1)
        doSingleClick();
    if(e.getClickCount()==2)
        doDoubleClick();it will always do first the single click and then the double click, which works fine with the example i gave, but not with what i want to do, so i was thinking to over come this that i will use another thread to run my tasks if dt has past since the last click and by the last click counts to perform the correct action and go to sleep until the next mouse click notify it, what do you think?
    run this to get what i mean...
    package blah;
    import java.awt.*;

  • Track Pad single tap and double tap not working

    Dear All,
    I have a MBP A1226 model with intel 2.2 GHz Core 2 uo processor. With Mac OSX ver 10.8.4.
    My system had developed a snag, was not booting up. I booted up thru the rcovery disk and after the disk repair did not help, did a drive erese and a fresh install.
    All seems to work well except that the trackpad does not respond to single aswell as double tap. Scrolling is working fine.
    Help to resolve this issue will be appreciated.
    BTW trackpad was functinal before the snag.
    Regards

    I suspect the trackpad settings were reset when you did your fresh install of Mac OSX.
    to fix this, open up Settings>Trackpad>"Point & Click" tab.
    Here you will find tons of settings that wil let you customize how your trackpad works. More specifically, you will want to enable "Tap to Click".
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I calculate disk space/DB space and storage spaces.

    Hi all,
    How can I calculate space clauses and memory related parameters for tables and table spaces? Updation is not allowed in these tables.
    I have to create a database also.
    I expect a reply with examples.
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    Thanks for all replies .

    Boby,
    The formula to estimate the storage parameters for tables and indexes are the following:
    Table size = db block size * (# of Estimated rows in 12 months * average row length)/(db block size-90) *(1-PCTFREE/100)
    Let assume that you want to create a table called Jose_tab,
    db block size = 4092
    Estimated row length in 12 months = 1000
    Average row len = 100
    PCTFREE(Updation is not allowed) = 0
    Then, your INITIAL storage parameter will be estimated as follows:
    4092*1000*100
    (4092-90)*(1-0/100)
    = About 10M
    Your create table command will look like this,
    CREATE TABLE jose_tab
    (col1 VARCHAR2(10), col2 NUMBER(2),
    ....coln VARCHAR2(100))
    STORAGE(INITIAL 10M NEXT 10M
    PCTINCREASE 0)
    PCTFREE 0 PCTUSED 80
    TABLESPACE tablespace_name;
    Storage parameters for tablespace depends on the amount of disk space available. You can ignore tablespace storage parameters since the size of the tablespace is determined by the size(s) of the data files. Refer to the DBA manual for details.

  • What is the actual status of my Silver iPhone 6 Plus 128GB preorder that was confirmed completed by 3:35AM EST?  Reps and websites and emails are ALL messed up.

    So, I placed my order by 3:35 AM EST for my Silver 6 plus 128GB.  All the way through the process, from selecting the phone to the submission confirmation screen on the web it stated delivery by 9/19.  I received my email confirmation and that showed the order date as 9/12 and the delivery date as 9/12.  Well I knew that would not be right.
    So then I go online to check the order status and it states the order has been received and the expected SHIP date is 10/14.  WHAT?!?
    So I called Vz and spoke with a rep who stated that he wasn't sure why it showed that but my ship date would be 9/19.  Call #1
    Well that's fine, I knew he probably mixed those words up.
    So then I check on 9/13 to see if it was updated online, still showed 10/14.  So I call again and this time the Vz rep places me on hold then comes back and says I am sorry to say that your expected ship date is 10/14.  Flustered and irritated I ask how that can happen and change from all the other notices stating the 19th (or sooner according to the email which she laughed about).  Call #2
    So today, I decide to check again after Noon EST and now all day it has said that the expected ship date is NOT AVAILABLE?
    Checking this community, looking at tweets and posts I see all conflicting information, some people getting getting ship notices but most of those are just the 6 and not the plus.
    Where can I find a straight answer.  I have seen another poster state that anyone who completed their order the first couple hours of ordering on the 12th will definitely receive on the 19th according to what they have been told by a Vz rep but honestly with the mixed messages I have seen personally I am not putting a lot of faith in what was told to him.
    OH, also I can only check my order by my preorder confirmation and not my order number.  When trying to check with my order number it gives an error message saying that is not a valid number.
    I have been a customer for almost 20 years, and this is making me think about switching. 

    We know everyone is super exited about these great phones. As your order moves through the process, you can check the status at http://bit.ly/RjmCUB. You may not be able to see a change from Processing until it officially ships, then you'll see the tracking number. If you've received a confirmation email that your order was submitted, any additional information throughout the fulfillment process will be sent to that same email address.

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 Replication - not applying snapshot and not updating all repliacted columns

    We are using transactional replicating on SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1) using a remote distributor. We are replicating from BaanLN, which is an ERP application to up to 5 subscribers, all using push publications. 
    Tables can range from a couple million rows to 12 million rows and 100's of GBs in size. 
    And it's due to the size of the tables that it was designed with a one publisher to one table architecture.  
    Until recently it has been working very smooth (last four years)) but we have come across two issues I have never encountered.
    While this has happen a half dozen times before, it last occurred a couple weeks ago when I was adding three new publications, again a one table per publication architecture.
    We use standard SS repl proc calls to create the publications, which have been successful for years. 
    On this occasion replication created the three publications, assigned the subscribers and even generated the new snapshot for all three new publications. 
    However,  while it appeared that replication had created all the publications correctly from end to end, it actually only applied one of the three snapshot and created the new table on both of the new subscribers (two on each of the
    publications).  It only applied the snapshot to one of the two subscribers for the second publications, and did not apply to any on the third.  
    I let it run for three hours to see if it was a back log issue. 
    Replication was showing commands coming across when looking at the sync verification at the publisher and 
    it would even successfully pass a tracer token through each of the three new publications, despite there not being tables on either subscriber on one of the publishers and missing on one of the subscribers on another.  
    I ended up attempting to reinitialize roughly a dozen times, spanning a day, and one of the two remaining publications was correctly reinitialized and the snapshot applied, but the second of the two (failed) again had the same mysterious result, and
    again looked like it was successful based on all the monitoring. 
    So I kept reinitializing the last and after multiple attempts spanning a day, it too finally was built correctly.  
    Now the story only get a little stranger.  We just found out yesterday that on Friday the 17th 
    at 7:45, the approximate time started the aforementioned deployment of the three new publications, 
    we also had three transaction from a stable and vetted publication send over all changes except for a single status column. 
    This publication has 12 million rows and is very active, with thousands of changes daily. 
    , The three rows did not replicate a status change from a 5 to a 6. 
    We verified that the status was in fact 6 on the publisher, and 
    5 on both subscribers, yet no messages or errors.  All the other rows successfully updated.  
    We fixed it by updating the publication from 6 back to 5 then back to 6 again on those specific rows and it worked.
    The CPU is low and overall latency is minimal on the distributor. 
    From all accounts the replication is stable and smooth, but very busy. 
    The issues above have only recently started.  I am not sure where to look for a problem, and to that end, a solution.

    I suspect the problem with the new publication/subscriptions not initializing may have been a result of timeouts but it is hard to say for sure.  The fact that it eventually succeeded after multiple attempts leads me to believe this.  If this happens
    again, enable verbose agent logging for the Distribution Agent to see if you are getting query timeouts.  Add the parameters
    -OutputVerboseLevel 2 -Output C:\TEMP\DistributionAgent.log to the Distribution Agent Run Agent job step, rerun the agent, and collect the log.
    If you are getting query timeouts, try increasing the Distribution Agent -QueryTimeOut parameter.  The default is 1800 seconds.  Try bumping this up to 3600 seconds.
    Regarding the three transactions not replicating, inspect MSrepl_errors in the distribution database for the time these transactions occurred and see if any errors occurred.

    Dileep .C

    Hi Dilip.
    from you both the code I have found that you are selecting 2 diffrent fields.
    In Code 1.
    you are selecting SAKNR and then for these SAKNR you are selecting TXT50 from the same table.
    and in Code 2 you are selecting all the fields from SAKT table for all the values of SAKNR.
    I don't know whats your requirement.
    Better you declare a select option on screen and then fetch required fields from SAKT table for the values entered on screen for SAKNR.
    you only need TXT50 and SAKNR fields.
    so declare two types one for SAKNR and another for TXT50.
    Points to be remember.
    1. while using for all entries always check the for all entries table should not be blank.
    2. you will have to fetch all the key fields in table while applying for all entries,
        you can compare key fields with a constant which is greater than initial value.
    3. while reading the table sort the table by the field on which you are going to read it.
    try this:
    TYPES : BEGIN OF ty_account,
    saknr TYPE skat-saknr,
    END OF ty_account.
    TYPES : begin of T_txt50,
          saknr type saknr,
          txt50 type txt50,
    end of t_txt50.
    DATA: i_account type table of t_account,
          w_account type t_account,
          i_txt50 type table t_txt50,
          w_txt50 type t_txt50.
    select SAKNR from SKAT into table i_account.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    sort i_account by saknr.
    select saknr txt50 from SKAT into table i_txt50
    for all entries in i_account
    where SAKNR = i_account-SAKNR
    here mention al the primary keys and compare them with their constants.
    endif.     
    Note; here you need to take care that, you will have to fetch all the key fields in table i_txt50.
    and compare those fields with there constants which should be greater than initial values.
    they should be in proper sequence.
    now for writing.
    loop at i_account into w_account.
    clear w_txt50.
    sort i_txt50 by saknr.
    read table i_txt50 into w_txt50 with key SAKNR = w_account-saknr
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    write: w_txt50-saknr, w-txt50-txt50.
    clear w_txt50, w_account.
    endif.
    endloop.
    Hope it wil clear your doubts.
