  1. "Replace Existing" will replace all the Masters applied to that page, unchecked the master will be added to the existing ones. It can be quite useful.
  2. I think @MickRose means to group the Swatches and Text Frames together. I should look at the file before saying anything else.
  3. What you are seeing is the nonexistent outside the image area being blurred and leaking their nonexistence into the image. Expand the canvas and just use a large sized Clone Brush to paint the outside and then blur, it will be better.
  4. I am of the school that says we have to not just get the book/magazine/thesis out the door but make it legible and comprehensible, and part of that means sometimes the arbitrary automatic 'line breaks' will result in a poorly understood Table of Contents. You could set up the Paragraph style to give the following result,
  5. Sadly, no. This is something that has been requested numerous times.
  6. Have you tried doing the starting up with the control key held down to clear the user settings?
  7. Here on Mac I can set guides only with the Move tool (the arrow). Neither Text tool will let me drag a guide off of the rulers.
  8. I complain a lot about the recent mistakes* Apple has made yet I forget that running 'Repair' used to be an almost weekly routine for me. I guess things are better now. *my own opinions (and I stand by them).
  9. Try searching for comma and anything. The comma disappears here on Mac and the rest of the string after the comma is deleted from the search string. Anything and comma and string will result in a search for Anything only.
  10. Here is a file to check and see if it does what you want. nmubered list.afpub
  11. Apple used to make sensible decisions about the user interface, I think they got too caught up in change for change's sake several years ago. And we pay the price. [world weary sigh emoticon]
  12. I don't see this here on Mac, is it perhaps the font? I tried with two separate families and the numbers stayed as old style while typing and once changed and changed back. I tried with a couple of paragraph styles and no style but the old style set in the typography panel.
  13. The blue herring highlight is for a set of actions; Duplicate this page/spread, Delete this page/spread, Set Margins for selected Spread, and on.
  14. Easy work around: you just need your cursor in the first word and then select the bold character style/attribute for the whole word to go bold. If you select one or more characters then only those will go bold. "Mar|k" (where the red bar is the text cursor) will become "Mark" if you hit the B button or select a bold Character Style. If you want to have a Numbered List Paragraph Style it is more work in setting up a couple of styles but it will work better if you have a huge number of these lists.
  15. The same thing happens on Mac. I would think that your "Edit 2:" means this behaviour of the guides disappearing is a bug.
  16. "sort of things", A text frame, a picture frame, a cropped image, a filled path, a rectangle etc. You and I had no crashes occurring but I only tested with a couple of items and the crash could be caused by one specific item (Text Frame with overflowing text for example) which I didn't test for and wouldn't necessarily think of testing for. You have a shadow added to your objects, I didn't think to add effects. Is "Picture" an image in a frame, a placed PS file, a placed PDF, a sketch drawn with the pencil tool or a closed curve grouped with a Star Object and on and on. I always think that more (pertinent) information is better for tracking bugs. Code is complex and there may only be one combination which causes a crash.
  17. Okay I understand, I find problems without looking for them all the time in real life and in software. But if I go looking for them I find many more that way. Keep up the work.
  18. Yes. oh... Correct and common for all. I speak/read/write English only and I have come to realize it is the stupidest language ever.
