To sort a whole table, place the cursor somewhere in it. To sort a selection of rows, select those rows. You can also indicate the number of header and footer rows which the sorter will then exclude from the sort. Any header and footer rows defined in the table are displayed in the script&#8217;s dialog.<\/p>\n<p>Also, where is the Arrange button in <strong>InDesign<\/strong>? You can use Arrange commands to bring content on top of or behind other content. To bring the green frame on top of the other frames, click the Arrange button at the bottom of the Properties panel and choose Bring to Front from the menu. You&#8217;ll see a series of commands in here you can use.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, how do you sort paragraph styles in <strong>InDesign<\/strong>? <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Move an existing group into another group by dragging one group on top of another.<\/li>\n<li>Select an existing group then Option\/Alt-click on New Style Group to create a sub group.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p> Best answer for this question, how do you arrange images in InDesign? Choose Window > Object &#038; Layout > Align to display the Align panel. Note: To show or hide additional panel options, choose Show Options or Hide Options from the panel menu. From the menu at the bottom of the panel, specify whether you want to align or distribute objects based on the selection, margins, page, or spread.For starters, you won&#8217;t even see this feature unless you have expanded the Align panel (choose Show Options in the panel menu). To set the exact space betwen objects, click Use Spacing, and set the value you want. Then click the button for either Distribute Horizontal Space or Distribute Vertical Space.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Pathfinder in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Pathfinders help you build basic shapes into stylized icons or combine fonts for unique logos. Additionally, Pathfinders exist in both InDesign and Illustrator so it is worth learning and experimenting with both. Pathfinders live in the properties panel.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I turn on Smart Guides in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Just as Smart Guides can align to margins and objects, they also give you feedback that can help you create an object that is the same size as another object on the page. To show or hide Smart Guides: Choose Window > Grids &#038; Guides > Smart Guides. This turns the Smart Guides on or off.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I alphabetize a list in word?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select the list you want to sort.<\/li>\n<li>Go to Home > Sort.<\/li>\n<li>Set Sort by to Paragraphs and Text.<\/li>\n<li>Choose Ascending (A to Z) or Descending (Z to A).<\/li>\n<li>Select OK.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where is paragraph rules in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select text.<\/li>\n<li>Choose Paragraph Rules from the Paragraph panel menu or Control panel menu.<\/li>\n<li>At the top of the Paragraph Rule dialog box, select Rule Above or Rule Below.<\/li>\n<li>Select Rule On.  <\/li>\n<li>Select Preview to see what the rule will look like.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What are bleeds in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>A Bleed is the area just extending past the edge of the page, past the trim edge. So here in this diagram you can see the edge of the bleed marked out skirting around the outer edge of the page. A Bleed acts as a margin of error when the document is trimmed, after it&#8217;s been printed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you group things in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Select multiple objects to be grouped or ungrouped. If your selection includes part of an object (for example, an anchor point), the group or ungroup operation will group or ungroup the entire object. To group the selected objects, choose Object > Group. To ungroup the selected objects, Object > Ungroup.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you align text in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select text.<\/li>\n<li>Click one of the Alignment buttons (Align Left, Align Center, Align Right, Left Justify, Center Justify, Right Justify and Full Justify) in the Paragraph panel or Control panel.<\/li>\n<li>(Optional) Click Align Towards Spine or Align Away From Spine.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you Gridify in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Gridify is a hidden feature of InDesign. I say hidden because it doesn&#8217;t have a tool or even a menu item. To invoke Gridify, use the arrow keys while dragging out shapes or frames.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you object equally space?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you want to evenly space objects between two existing points, measure the space you have to fill and the size of the objects you want to place in that space. Add the two together and divide by one more than the number of things you want to place between them.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is my InDesign not snapping?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>In the Guides and Pasteboaed section of the InDesign preferences make sure that all the boxes under Smart Guides are checked. Then also make sure Samrt Guides is checked under View > Guides and Grids. A word of warning about snapping to the document grid&#8230; you may find it interferes with easy snapping to objects.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I align text horizontally in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select the text frame with the &#8220;Type&#8221; tool or &#8220;Selection&#8221; tool from the toolbar.<\/li>\n<li>Click the button for the preferred alignment from the options in the \u201cControl\u201d or \u201cParagraph\u201d panels.  <\/li>\n<li>Click \u201cOK\u201d to save your changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you use the pathfinder tool?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To access the Pathfinder Tool, you can head to the Window dropdown menu and find the Pathfinder tool. Alternatively, you can also press Shift + Ctrl + F9 to access the tool. We can make use of the top row of buttons to make paths using the tool. You can either make both paths and compound paths using the tool.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I make a compound path in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Draw a Text box and type a letter.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the letter with the Selection tool.<\/li>\n<li>Go to Type > Create Outlines.<\/li>\n<li>Drag the letter on top of the circle with the Selection tool.<\/li>\n<li>Select the circle and the letter with the Selection tool.<\/li>\n<li>Choose Object > Paths > Make Compound Path.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you make a compound path?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Draw two shapes. Make one smaller than the other.  <\/li>\n<li>Select both shapes and choose Object>Compound Paths>Make. Where the two shapes overlap, the compound path is transparent.  <\/li>\n<li>Edit the individual shapes in the compound path with the direct selection tool.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is smart guides in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Use smart guides. The Smart Guides feature makes it easy to snap objects to items in your layout. As you drag or create an object, temporary guides appear, indicating that the object is aligned with an edge or center of the page or with another page item.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why can&#8217;t I see smart guides InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>It seems, your InDesign Preferences are different. Go to Guides &#038; Pasteboard tab >> under the \u201cSmart Guide Options\u201d, check all the boxes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I use guides in InDesign?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Scroll to the top toolbar and select Layout, then &#8220;Create Guides&#8221; from the dropdown. 2. In your Create Guide prompt window, specify how many rows and columns you&#8217;d like to work with. As a rule of thumb, I like using an even number and usually start at 6 rows and 6 columns.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you put things in alphabetical order?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WpjHcKaQPSo\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you alphabetize?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Rule 1. \u2013 Alphabetic Order alphabetize names by comparing the first unit letter by letter.
