    @Keith Gilbert,

    This script makes no sense. Its using code which doesnt even exist. First its app.actoveDocument.swatches
    Than when you get each color component value, you need to know what component this is. It seems like this is a copy/paste from a complete different language, this is not ExtendScript

    Sorry almost forgot about it. Is this perhaps more handy?
    Ive altered it a bit and now you get a dialog window and you can pick the object style from the dropdownlist. It will then go over all items and clear the overrides.

    I got another idea by making it more functional by letting the user choose between object-, character- or paragraph-style. That way we got 3 different versions of a script in one :)

    Would be nice if this forum had a bit more advanced messaging system and also allowed for image uplaod

    Perhaps if I got time this weekend I can alter the script and make the user ask for style to select from a drop-down. That way you won’t need to alter the script each time. Would be way more convenient wouldn’t it?

    What actually happens if you place say 2 columns as text blocks. When you still want both to show in horizontal and portrait mode, that should work rigth?

    DId you found a solution for cross-document links and combining them later? I see this same issue with url link and linked in pages. In the main document the links do show as shared hyperlinks. Yet on export nothing is exported.

    PS for those which say it doesnt work, you need to clean it a bit. Copy Pasting it from this forum give the wrong ” replace those and it works just fine

    The table doesn’t get changed its the text where the table is placed in. Yet I’ve even added aobject from to these. Also the issue doesn’t happen consistently. When I noticed that selecting nothing didn’t do anything. I then reverted the docdocument and tried again with selecting the frame and than updating it this time it also worked perfect. I than restarted InDesign and redid both steps. This time both if of them worked properly.

    But the issue has happened before today. Luckily I’ve applied styles to everything I can think off, so using a clear over override scripts fixes it quickly but still I wonder why certain times it works and other times it doesnt

    I notice when i select it and then update it, it gets a different paragraph style. Yet when i dont select it, than it works properly. This is bugging me a lot, it looks like some bug to me.No where is that style it gets set to that frame.

    Than once i did the update without selecting any table in a frame. Than it does update all other without issues or assigning a new paragraph style to the frame. Its really weird.

    Okay here goes.

    Ive made a catalogue wich uses excel sheets with set set range values for header info and spec info. All is set with style as for the tables and rows. The problem which is happening is that on each save all links need to be updated.

    Somehow since yesterday when i do update all my frame which contain the a table with a certain paragraph style get a new paragraph style. Ive even added object frame styles to try to suppress this and this was working prior.

    I get the feeling that when you have nothing selected and go the the paragraph styles in the top menu and pick something it somehow applies this. Prior i used the preselect the proper paragraph style in the styles list and this worked. But now it keeps jumpig to a different one.

    Before i update links

    The warning that i loose local edits. Not sure what is wrong with this, because sometimes it doesnt give that warning yet other times it gives it for each and every linked file. There doesnt seem to be standard, even when i havent done any edits i still get this.

    After i update, see the header called “Banner 510”, in the op right you can see the frame some how gets a different paragraph style. While all is set to paragraph style in the table style options and also in the object frame options.

    Im having this issue with tables. I use linked xlxs files with the sheets linked to text frames with tables inside. When i update the link file it some sets the paragraph style to a different one. It seems like some bug. Prior use the select the correct one before doing the update and than it worked. But know it simple switches to a different one.

    I can use Clear All Overrides script, but that destroy my table row styles ive added.

    Does someone know a trick to solve this?
