Dear Fellow Framers, I have been having difficulties in getting text to run around the whole perimeter of an image/graphic object. Whenever I select the runaround option, even if I select 'run around contour' or 'run around bounding box', all I manage to achieve is that the text goes around one s

How do I get wildcards to work in Replace?

2006-03-01 Thread Bodvar Bjorgvinsson

Example: When I look for a string that has straight quotes around it, I search for "*". This works. Now I want to replace it by smart quotes \`*\' I get the asterisk surrounded by

I don't think that's a supported option for run-arounds. You could probably kludge it, if you had to, with a three-colum (middle column to hold the graphic) table and manual text adjustment in the left and right columns. Or possibly with a modified master page that contained four connected text co

No. The wildcard strings only work on Finds; there isn't any way to save existing text into a buffer. Someone adept at FrameScript or the FDK might be able to come up with something, but... In your particular example situation though, you can easily work around the limitation by searching and repl
