Overset story

September 28, 2010, 2:51 pm
$
0
0

Hi,

 

Given an overset story I find page items that the story text wraps around. My goal is now to scale the covering page items until the story is no more overset.

 

I use Utils<Facade::ITransformFacade>()->TransformItems(...) to perform the scaling task, and Utils<ITextUtils>()->CountOversetLines(...) to get the number of overset lines.

 

My problem is that "CountOversetLines" returns the same number of overset lines after the covering page items has been scaled down?

Saving and reopening the document does the trick, so i assume I need to fire a change event on some object?

 

I really hope somebody has a solution for this issue.

 

Thanks

 

Kind regards Toke

IDCS5 - how to programatically create IAssignedStory ?

Hello all,

 

Here is my problem:

 

I need to get stories not yet assigned (not even to Unassigned InCopy Content), export them and assign them to the Unassigned InCopy Content...

 

I tried to export using ISnnipetExport and create the link via LinkManager, but they don't assign automatically to anything

 

What I need is to do something like the InCopy-Export menu in ID, but without any user interface.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Draw an Icon into a generic panel widget

Hi

 

In my GUI, I have a GenericPanelWidget with his own drawer. In this widget I get out a preview of a file, e.g. a JPG. A few files I can't get out a preview (e.g. a word document), in this case I want to draw an icon from the resource file (fr). The icon in the resource file is something like "resource PNGA(kPicIcoTopOutsidePictureRsrcID) "TopOutside.png"".

 

How can I do that?

How can I draw an icon form the fr resource into this widget?

Instead of PNG, can I use BMP (Bitmap)?

 

Thanks for any help.

Hi All,

I have been trying to get the co-ordinates of the rotated bounding box of a page item after it has been rotated.

But what I get when I use IGeometry Interface are the co-ordinates of the enclosing bounding box of the page item  and not the actualt bounding box.

 

Please see image the image below.

 

I need (X,Y) and what I get is (X1,Y1)

 

Using this code snippet:

InterfacePtr<ITransform> transform(itemrefUseDefaultIID());
PMMatrix  matrix( transform->GetInnerToParentMatrix ());
InterfacePtr<IGeometry> geometry(itemRef), UseDefaultIID());
PMRect  rect = geometry->GetStrokeBoundingBox(matrix);

Scenario:

1. Check-out image story

2. Place another image

3. Change position of graphic image inside pageitem (simply move it by hand)

4. Check-in story

5. Then I try to change LinkResourceURI node into ICML-story by ID plugin (or other software)

6. Link in links panel shows outdated link

7. When I try to sync outdated link, ID show new graphic image in old position (before step 2).

 

But when I save ID document between steps 3 and 4, new graphic image stay in valid new position.

Problem: I can't "Save document" programmatically into my customized IAMService CheckIn routine.

Hi All,

 

I build a plugin and tested it successfully in my InDesign CS 5.5 (32-bit OS).

 

But when I tested the same for InDesign CS5.5 in a 64-bit OS (the InDesign was 32-bit), it says that "the plugin is not compatible with this version. Ask your vendor to make a compatible version of the plugin".

 

What might be the issue?

BUG: IDTime.SetTime does not validate parameters on CS6 Mac

I have just discovered that IDTime does not validate parameters in SetTime (year, month, day, hour, min, sec) function. I can set 29th February, 2013 as a date and it happily returns true.

 

I checked it further, it happily accepts even zero in any of the fields.

 

It works properly on Windows CS6 SDK.

 

Now, I have to make a Mac specific code to validate the date.

How to get the UIDRef of Text frame associated with hyperlink?

Hi,

 

I have a document which contains Text hyperlinks . I am able to get the number of hyperlinks present in document using "IHyperlinkTable" and text range to which hyperlink is associated using interface "IHyperlink".

 

InterfacePtr<IHyperlink> hyperlink(tableDb, table->GetNthHyperlink(i), IID_IHYPERLINK);

if(hyperlink)

{

       hyperlink->GetName(&sHyperlinkName); //sHyperlinkName is text to which hyperlink is associated

}

 

now I need to find the UIDRef of Text frame with which hyperlink is associated.

 

I can get the UIDRef of "Image frame" using interface "IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData".

 

InterfacePtr<IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData> sourceHyperLink (tableDb, hyperlink->GetSourceUID(), UseDefaultIID());

if (sourceHyperLink)

{

        UID sourceHyperLinkUID  = sourceHyperLink->GetSourceUID();

}

 

but this interface may be not helpful in case of text in the frame (word/words) associated with hyperlink.

 

 

If anyone has done this please do let me know.

 

Thank you all in advance.

Export command do not show missing font error

April 24, 2014, 8:13 am

Our plug-in is using the SDK's PDFExportCmd to export InDesign file to PDF.

 

Every thing works fine, except we got into a serious issue when one of the Font is missing in the Indesign file.

 

When an InDesign file having missing font is exported it successfully converted to PDF without reporting any error, by replacing the missing font with default font!

 

The PDF preset used has following properties but looks like InDesign completely ignore these property.

 

/CannotEmbedFontPolicy /Warning

 

or

 

/CannotEmbedFontPolicy /Error

 

or

 

/CannotEmbedFontPolicy /Ignore

 

Please note that when same InDesign file is exported using InDesign's Export...  it reports the error message saying Font is missing!

 

Are we missing something?

Is there some properties that need to be set while exporting to PDF?

Or is it a serious bug in PDFExportCmd?

 

Alternatively is there a way to validate the InDesign file before exporting?

 

(I saw the api IExportValidationCmdData, but there is no documentation on it usage.)

Generate package report file

Hi All,

I want to generate only package report same as inDesign's package report(File->package->report).

I have tried below code snippet,

 

InterfacePtr<IS4SPPackage> iPakager((IS4SPPackage*)::CreateObject(kPackageAPIBoss, IID_IS4SPPACKAGEAPI));

if(!iPakager)

    break;

IDocument* document = Utils<ILayoutUIUtils>()->GetFrontDocument();

if(!document)

   break;

iPakager->Init(document);

iPakager->SetPackageLocation(pacakeFilePath);

iPakager->SetViewReportFlag(kFalse);

iPakager->SetCopyFontsFlag(kTrue);

InterfacePtr<IPackageReport> iPakage((IPackageReport*)::CreateObject(kS4SPPackageReportBoss, IID_IS4SPPACKAGEREPORT));

if(iPakage)

  iPakage->GenerateReport(iPakager);

 

Report file is generated(missing most of the information) but,generated report file and indesign's report file both are different.

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance.
