ParticipantPs – the technical term is ‘stem’.

ParticipantThanks Chris. It’s just past midnight where I am, and unfortunately, I’m working on similar stuff. I ended up using the “plant a graphic” as my workaround, then grouped everything to get around my problem for the sake of filming. Took me a bit, and now I’m close to midnight on the next task. I’ll review your comments and take them on board when in a slightly clearer state of mind, since I think this will be arising a little.

ParticipantYou’ve latched onto something, Chris. I have the letter as Calibri 11, and Maestro is therefore 11 (the properties window tells me that). If I change it to 9, it comes back into view, but it’s too small to be what I need it to be. It needs to stand out as a “bigger” letter because in the scheme of things, it’s not all that big to the eye. (That is proportionately right for music).

ParticipantThanks David. I think that’s it. I have a capital A in the slot before it so will probably lose that too now that I know. Pity that ID just doesn’t let us pick more of those tucked-away characters ourselves.

ParticipantI’ve got a similar problem. But not with Chinese – it’s a bullet within a font. The font is Myriad Pro, and the bullet is referring to Unicode 25CF. I know that because when I hover over the blank bullet cell in the Paragraph Style Options, it tells me the reference code. When I go to PopChar on my Mac, I can find the symbol when I ask to see all unicode characters, but not when I select “characters of current font”. It’s in the geometric shapes. But I can’t make ID use it. It doesn’t appear to be in the short list of charcters under the Add Bullet popup (at least in a quick scan, anyway).
I’m using a template obtained from ID Secrets – the IDS Template Manual created – it appears – in 2017. The Myriad Font I installed was the one came as the Resources>Required>Fonts for ID 2020.
Any thoughts? I’m trying to go with design thoughts of people better than myself, hence the template.Phillip Maas
ParticipantThanks for the reply David. I hoped, like the current version of Word, to access some nice paragraph layouts by people who have more of an eye for style than I do, and save time in the process. Looks like I’ll still have to do the yards, unless you have any other suggestions of where to look. (I used the book template – ok, I guess.
