Jahrod
MemberFor those who may be interested, the GREP code for what I needed is:
\([^“\)]*\K“[^“]+”

MemberLooks like you need to set your ‘Stroke Drawing Order’ to ‘Column Strokes in front’. You can do this under the ‘Table Setup’ options. The option for the ‘Stroke Drawing Order’ is located at the bottom of that window.
As for selecting a table to access its options. There are a few ways:
One way is to mouse over the left edge or top edge of your table until you see the table arrow indicator, then click, now you should have a row or column selected, then simply press SHIFT+ALT+CMD+B (on a Mac) to bring up the table options (or right click on the selected area and choose ‘Table Setup > Table Options’.
Another way is to select just a cell by clicking in a cell so that you can see the flashing cursor, then press ESC, then press SHIFT+ALT+CMD+B to bring up the table options.
TIP: If you want to apply certain formatting to the whole table without using the Table Options dialog window, you can select the entire table by mousing over the top left corner of your table and when you see a -45º arrow you can select the entire table. You can also select the entire table by using the shortcut ALT+CMD+A, but you must have at least one cell selected first.

MemberSounds like you might want to use a master page. Simply create your type frame/s on a master page and apply that master to your 80 page document.

MemberYou could try adding the InDesign logos to a CC library and then placing in Illustrator from the CC library. Then embed the logos in Illustrator to work with them.

MemberJustin and Eugene, thank you so much for your help and explanations. Such a huge help!
Jahrod
MemberIs it also possible to find only the last word of a paragraph and move it to a new paragraph?
For instance:
‘Today I want to be in the sun’.
Should change to:
‘Today I want to be in the
sun’.Jahrod
MemberThank you, Justin, that works a treat! How exactly is that code working? I especially don’t get what the ’20’ is doing!?
Jahrod
MemberMasood Ahmad, amazing – thank you so much for the thorough breakdown! Saving me so much time already :)
Jahrod
Member@Wosven, this is absolutely PERFECT – thank you! I actually need a code for 60+, so thanks for dropping that one in too :)
Out of curiosity, how exactly does that last code work? Possible for you to break it down on what each part does?
Many thanks
Jahrod
MemberThanks for all the input everyone! Much appreciated.
Jahrod
MemberThanks for all the help folks! So it seems there is just no way to make this fully automated. I really thought there might be a way to use a GREP style which adds a centre align tab at the beginning of the page number?
Jahrod
MemberThank you, Colleen. This is exactly what I am looking for but I need something that doesn’t involve having to do this manually each and everytime I update the ToC. I was wondering if I could build it into my ToC style or build it into my character/paragraph styles using GREP? Any ideas!?

MemberAnne! You are absolutely right!!! I have the APID ToolAssistant installed and the Place and Scale Prefs were enabled and set to 300%. As soon as I switched this off the auto resizing stops!
Thank YOU so much!!! This has been making me crazy for months and months!

MemberI’m on a Mac. I guess you’re right though, I should try to reinstall and see if that fixes it. Thanks!

MemberI still have this issue and it’s so frustrating and time consuming. I was wondering if anyone had experienced it and has any fix?
I just opened up InDesign CC and it works as expected. It’s only InDesign CC (2014) that causes me trouble. It’s so, so odd.
