Hi! I have several documents that use the same paragraph styles. I have all the files in a book so if I change something I can synchronies. But in the heat of the moment I sometimes make changes in one of the documents and forgets to synchronize. So... I am looking for a script where I can compare paragraph styles from different files (same name on paragraph style) and only see the difference between them. Do you know if there is something like that existing? Kind regards Jeanette

Hi. If there is a group style, its subset style will not be displayed.

Fit Frame Using the Context Menu

This script for Adobe InDesign allows you, with the help of the mouse right button, to fit the selected frame (or several frames) to these selected objects: page margins, page borders, bleeds, or the baseline of the bottom line of the text (if a text frame is selected). It is much easier than trying to catch the desired edge of the frame with the mouse and dragging it to the desired guide, then doing the same operation with the opposite edge.

Place the script to the "startup scripts" folder and restart InDesign.

If, after copying the script to the specified folder, the program generates an error at startup, read the article "Accessing the script from a localized menu". If the problem persists, use the feedback for help.

Update to the version 1.1 from February 2017

The algorithm for adding to the menu has been redesigned so that embedding now takes place regardless of the version and localization of InDesign. More information on the topic can be found in the article "Localized menu: the adventure continues".

Align all frames of the story

If you want to fit all the frames of the selected story to the margins on all the pages they occupy, set the cursor in this story and use this script below:

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var mySel = myDoc.selection[0].parentStory.textContainers;
for (i=0;i<mySel.length;i++){
	var myPage = mySel[i].parentPage;
	var myPB = myPage.bounds;
	var myMar = myPage.marginPreferences;
	if (myPage.side == PageSideOptions.LEFT_HAND){
		var gb = [myMar.top,myMar.right,myMar.bottom,myMar.left];
		}
	else{
		var gb = [myMar.top,myMar.left,myMar.bottom,myMar.right];
		}
	mySel[i].geometricBounds = [myPB[0]+gb[0],myPB[1]+gb[1],myPB[2]-gb[2],myPB[3]-gb[3]];
	try{mySel[i].fit(FitOptions.CONTENT_TO_FRAME);}catch(e){}
	}
