MemberHave you checked what language is set in the BASIC PARAGRAPH style?
If this is set to Bulgarian it will cause this issue.September 16, 2017 at 12:39 am in reply to: Can GREPs based on length and sums be modified to account for certain characters #98146MemberGREP does not allow for this.
The process you describe above does not sound like a good method to control text anyway, carriage returns and tab.
If you could post an example we might be able to get a you a workable solution, but not based on GREPMemberYou can always just check.
Select the two shapes, fill with the gradient and then use the gradient tool to drag the fill across the two shapes.
You can group them to keep them together if required.MemberIn Google Analytics you can look on the Behaviour tab and this will show the flow of users through the site, landing page, bounce page, exit page and the route they take between.
This might give you what you are after.Member80 Pages is too small to use a book. This is for multi chapter books of many hundreds of pages.
A template will save you time and add consistency, you will always start with clean document. As a document is worked on extra colours, fonts, styles etc and other little bits get added so a template will gets the document back to the same starting point.
September 15, 2017 at 7:40 am in reply to: Use document name without extension and a grep question #98119MemberYes a nested style can be applied to the whole variable text but not to part of it.
InDesign treats these type of items as a single character so no GREP, editing, formatting to part of the result are possible.
Dimitri can you post exactly what the variable text is and then how you want it to appear?
It looked to me as though you wanted to remove part of the file name when it is placed. Or do you just want to format the result?September 15, 2017 at 7:18 am in reply to: Use document name without extension and a grep question #98116MemberThat is a nice solution.
As to Dmitri first question about the revision name on the back of the using ‘variable text’.
InDesign treats these type of items as a single character so no GREP, editing, formatting to part of the result are possible.I don’t think it is possible to do anything unless you convert the ‘variable text’ to text.

(?=implant(s||[[:punct:]]))i
September 15, 2017 at 5:27 am in reply to: Use document name without extension and a grep question #98111MemberThat code is a bit inelegant.
This is better use POSIX to shorten it and it will pick up all punctuation without a list.(?=implant(s|[[:punct:]]))i
MemberThat will work but I think it will find every second paragraph.
As such you will need to be more careful when you use it.
The one I did specifies the first word of the line in the find so is a bit safer. Still use all with care.MemberYou could shorten the months to make it query easier to read.
FIND
(Ja.+|Fe.+|Mar.+|Ap.+|May|June|July|Au.+|Se.+|Oc.+|No.+|De.+)\r(.*?)\r
Replace
$1$2\rThen

$1MemberLove a good brain teaser.
I finally worked this one out using yours GREP as a starting point.
Now two steps and it is done.FIND
(January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December)\r(.*?)\rCHANGE TO
$1$2\rThen
FIND
((January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December).+$)\r((January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December).+$)CHANGE TO
$1MemberSorry I can’t help with GREP as it almost exclusively on 1 line with a few exceptions.
To achieve this I think you would need to write a script. That is not my area so maybe some else can help.
MemberA bit hard from that, if you would like to post some sample text I can have a shot at it.
MemberOne method would be to set all the other Paragraph Styles to NO LANGUAGE.
OK if you only have a few styles a problem if you have many or if they are BASED ON another style it will break this link.If you set up the document from scratch with two ‘Parent Style’ one for the NO LANGUAGE and one for LANGUAGE then you can toggle the language on and off by just changing this in the parent style.
