MemberHi Andy
changing the Ruler units in your preferences should allow you to work with points. I’m surprised you say units are still in millimeters…
Also note that you keep mm as default unit and directly type 24pt as indents values in your paragraph style, Indesign will automatically calculate and change to mm.Vinny –
MemberHere’s my 2 cents:
So you have created Master A with a primary text frame. Good!
Then you have created Master B… My guess is that you created B based on Master-A. (you can check it by opening “master-B page options”)
Now, instead of resizing the primary text frame, maybe you have created a new one. (possibly with a [paper] background, which would explain why your master-B looks fine).
Now, when you apply Master-B to a normal page, what does happen? Your text frame is locked and the primary isn’t, and is on top.
If I’m guessing correctly, just go back to Master B, delete the created text frame and resize the primary text frame.
Tell us if this solves your issue.

MemberHi Clark.
First of all… I deeply sympathize :-/Now, you’re asking two different things:
1- “so that the chapter titles all start in the same place”: that’s easy if you add a tab between page number and entry.
2- “how do I right-justify the page numbers”: all I can think of (except a script), is to use GREP to add a tab before the page number and then to set up a right-tab marker. Unfortunately this isn’t a fully automated method and you’ll have to do it every time you update your TOC.
Maybe someone will come with a automatic solution…April 10, 2018 at 8:34 am in reply to: Making text color change automatically between linked text boxes #103019Vinny –

MemberHi there.
Since nobody replied, I’ll bring up your question.If I understand correctly, you can achieve what you want by creating a character style with discretionary ligatures ON (Opentype features).
Then, in your paragraph style options, use a GREP style in order to apply the previously created character style to some letters.
Grep querysp|ctwill add ligatures to “sp” and “ct” (but not st or any other existing ligature).Of course, the chosen font must have these disc. ligatures.
You can check if they exist through the glyph panel and choosing display > discretionary ligatures.See example below (ligatures in magenta for better viewing):
Hope I understood correctly your question…

MemberI believe you can add this action to the button in Indesign itself ^^
Place your button on your master page (assuming you want it to appear to all of your pages).
Then select it, open the Button and form panel, add an action and choose “Go to previous view”.
If you check your button properties in Acrobat, you should see it executes a Menu command > View > Navigation > Previous view.
Of course, as usual with interactive PDF, do not expect buttons to work properly outside Acrobat pro or reader…Vinny –
MemberHere’s another trick:
instead of using a “non-breaking” character style, you can use a “no-language” instead.
This should prevent compound word from hyphenation while keeping the ability to break after the dash.
I made a quick test using \w+(?=-)|(?<=-)\w+ regex and it seems OK, but should probably be tested on a real project.Vinny –
MemberHi Michael
Maybe you could just anchor your image in your text flow like this:
<<text>> <<your image>> <<text2>>Or, just like you suggested, use a 3rd part script to create your font. IndyFont would probably be what you need here. Obviously if you have multicolors icon, that won’t work.

MemberHi Eric.
Dynamic captions right?Maybe have a look at Loic’s script:

MemberIn my honest opinion, nested styles are much likely to be your friends here than Grep styles.
A simple nested style “to ^y” (right-align tab) will nicely format your food title.
About food description, why not simply create a new paragraph instead of using forced-line break?
In case you must/want to keep your forced-line break, use another nested style “to Forced-line break” to format your price.By the way, why should the characters of Food title be either \u, or space? What about Hot-dogs? ^^

MemberHi
maybe something like this?(,??\<and\>|\<to\>|,)\K.*?risk
Basically (\<and\>|\<to\>|,)\K.*?risk should be enough, but I added the ,?? part in case you add a comma before the word “and” just like you did in your example.

Okay but… why?Vinny –
MemberWhat about using 2 nested styles?
Apply [none] up to 2 commas
Apply Bold through 1 commaJanuary 17, 2018 at 6:52 am in reply to: Add paragraph style only to a paragraph with 2 lines or more. #101043Vinny –
MemberI meant that this forum transforms quotation marks like these:”” into curved one (not sure what the right English word is). This causes errors while it comes to JavaScript.
This is probably why you can’t get Obi-Wan script to work properly. Edit the code and replace them. -
