How to get to $(document) in the onReady method ?
I've tried with smoothState.cache[smoothState.href] but couldn't make it works.
(fantastic plugin)
Thanks
I'm assuming you want to get at the document for the new page that's being loaded. Technically, $(document) exists in onReady, and it's the first document you visited on the site. After that, smoothState just dynamically updates it by swapping out content. So whatever existed on the previous page you were viewing is there as normal. Once the line $container.html( $newContent ); runs in your onReady method (assuming your code follows all the smoothState examples), you new content should be available.
However, if you want to get at the actual, full document for the new page that got loaded up, not just what's contained in your wrapper div that gets swapped out, it's contained in smoothState.cache[smoothState.href].doc. It's got the header, the body, everything.
A little reading of the smoothState source code shows that you can pull it into a useful format this way:
var $newDoc = $("<html></html>").append( $(smoothState.cache[smoothState.href].doc) );
At this point, you can run find queries or whatever you need to go look through things.

I am working on generating a report in episerver in the form of a scheduled job.This report is basically used to get all the contents(page types,blocks,media) within Episerver.
There are some good nuget packages for content usages but for some reason& to have more control & plans for tweeking & extending it further,i am creating a custom one rather than using the available 3rd party packages.
The scheduled job is kind of similar to
https://www.codeart.dk/blog/2018/12/content-report-generator/ .
The article helped me a lot to get my report working with some modifications as per my requirement.
The one thing that I am struggling here is to get the URL of where the block is. Now this is a point of debate here.
I am aware that the blocks being shared in nature can be used anywhere in a site but the point is they are still used in pages or as a matter of fact in other blocks which is turn is used on a page.What i am trying to say here is,they directly or indirectly are part of a page.So is there a way to get the page url of a block irrespective of how many pages they are in.
Every forum I have looked at ,there's always page url of Pagedata or mediadata & nothing on blockdata.Even 3rd party nuget packages that i have looked for does not have page url for block types.
I do understand that there is nothing out of the box here.Is there a way to achieve this ie get the page url of a specific block type which can be a list of page urls if the block is used in multiple pages.
Recursive function to reach the page:
private string GetPublicUrl(IContentRepository contentRepository, IContentSoftLinkRepository contentSoftLinkRepository, ContentReference contentReference)
{
var publicUrl = string.Empty;
var content = contentRepository.Get<IContent>(contentReference);
var referencingContentLinks = contentSoftLinkRepository.Load(content.ContentLink, true)
.Where(link => link.SoftLinkType == ReferenceType.PageLinkReference && !ContentReference.IsNullOrEmpty(link.OwnerContentLink))
.Select(link => link.OwnerContentLink);
foreach (var referencingContentLink in referencingContentLinks)
{
publicUrl = UrlResolver.Current.GetUrl(referencingContentLink.GetPublicUrl()) ?? GetPublicUrl(contentRepository, contentSoftLinkRepository, referencingContentLink);
}
return publicUrl;
}
I have written this recursive function to reach the page ,but this works only when there is a single level. For instance A 2Col block on a page.
If I have a block say Download Block which is on a 2Col block which in turn is on a page ,then in this case the url is empty.
Any input is appreciated.
With IContentSoftLinkRepository you can find where the blocks are used. You can check whether the SoftLink points to a page with SoftLink.SoftLinkType == PageLinkReference and then use IUrlResolver to get the page's URL.
How can I make InDesign render a region of a page, as it would be rendered when exporting the whole file?
I know I can render a PageItem using the exportFile function, but this will ignore any other PageItems sharing the same region.
My current solution is to make a new document the size of the region of interest, with a copy of each PageItem whose coordinates fall into that region. It’s very inelegant, and it seems it cannot be done without the user seeing windows meaningless to them come and go.
Another approach I can think of is to export the whole spread containing the region, then crop the resulting file using something like ImageMagick. But I’d still prefer to be able to render only the region I need, if possible.
You can open the InDesing document without showing its UI as well.
app.open(filepath, false);
and while closing the doc, simple use
doc.close(SaveOptions.NO);
You anyways don't need to save that doc on disk.
This will let you have the document open without showing its UI at all.
I did something like this recently. Here are my steps:
duplicate all spread items and group them
make a frame with a proper size/position
cut and paste the group into this frame
export the frame as PNG
If you need another region on this spread you don't need to repeat all the steps, you can change size and position of the frame and to export it again.
There is a limitation: master page items will be omitted.
I'm trying to create an NG app where parts can be enabled/disabled dynamically. The idea is to have an "admin" page, where parts of the app can be enabled or disabled, and then see new functionality appear, in the form of an adjusted menu at the top of the page, and matching routes, controllers, etc loaded into the app (I'm using SocketStream w/ NG).
The first step was to add / remove routes dynamically, for which I found a solution at https://stackoverflow.com/a/13173667 - working well, as far as I can tell.
Next, adding items to the menu bar - easy with ng-repeat on ul/li items.
So the app adjusts its menu and recognizes the corresponding route. So far so good.
The problem comes with registering a controller. I'm calling myApp.controller('SandboxCtrl',[...]) with proper args (same as what worked when initialising statically on startup), but the controller does not appear to get loaded or inited properly. Navigating to the newly added route generates errors such as:
Error: Argument 'SandboxCtrl' is not a function, got undefined

I'm currently at a loss on how to proceed. I've not been able to find a solution on the web. The app is too large to put in a jsFiddle, but I can commit the last changes on GitHub if needed.
Questions: is this feasible? what can I do to debug this? any examples I could look at?
EDIT: The code is now at https://github.com/jcw/housemon (needs node/npm/redis). It's easy to reproduce the problem: launch with "npm start", browse to localhost:3333, go to admin tab, click on "jcw-sandbox" and then "Install". Top menu will update with new a "Sandbox" entry. Clicking on that entry generates the error shown above.
Oh, almost forgot: relevant code is in client/code/app/main.coffee and client/code/modules/routes.coffee ...
The answer turns out to be two-fold:
the NG calls were made from SocketStream RPC callbacks, and had to be wrapped in $scope.$apply calls - my bad, didn't know about this SS/NG interaction
the rest of the solution was outlined by #matys84pl - pick up $controllerProvider (and $filterProvider) early on, so they can be called at a later time instead of the normal "app.controller" and "app.filter" members, which don't seem to work anymore later on
Example code in GitHub, I'll link to a specific commit so this answer stays valid:

I've got a FlowDocumentPageViewer with dynamic content. The flow document is made of paragraphs, each run in the paragraph contains a word. I'm trying to navigate to a given run, so I got the method which will return me the run I want.
But once I got this Run how can I navigate to it, with automatic page change?
For example I select the last run in a page, the next run is in the next page. How do I navigate to the next page from there?
I had a look at the TextPointer but I'm not sure this will help here.
Thanks for your help,
Boris
I just found the solution, once you get a pointer to your FrameworkElement, you will have to call FrmkElement.BringIntoView(), it will automatically change page in the PageFlowDocumentViewer.
I am trying to figure out how to make a hyperlink in a Livecycle Form which points to a URL which will change on different days that the form is rendered. For example on one day I might want the hyperlink to point to:
mywebsite/mypage?option=XXX
and on another day I want it to point to:
mywebsite/mypage?option=YYY
The XXX and YYY can be passed into the form's data pretty easily as XML, but I just don't know how to make it so that the hyperlink is changed to correspond to this.
Any suggestions?
This can be accomplished with JavaScript in LiveCycle Designer. The following script, placed on the Form's docReady event will let you dynamically change the URL of a text object.
form1::docReady - (JavaScript, client)
// If this code is running on the server, you don't want it to run any code
// that might force a relayout, or you could get stuck in an infinite loop
if (xfa.host.name != "XFAPresentationAgent") {
// You would load the URL that you want into this variable, based on
// whatever XML data is being passed into your form
var sURL = "www.stackoverflow.com"; // mywebsite/mypage?option=xxx
// URLs are encoded in XHTML. In order to change the URL, you need
// to create the right XHTML string and push it into the Text object's
// <value> node. This is a super simple XHTML shell for this purpose.
// You could add all sorts of markup to make your hyperlink look pretty
var sRichText = "<body><p>Foo</p></body>";
// Assuming you have a text object called "Text1" on the form, this
// call will push the rich text into the node. Note that this call
// will force a re-layout of the form
this.resolveNode("Text1").value.exData.loadXML(sRichText, false, true);
}
There are a couple of caveats: URLs in Acrobat are only supported in Acrobat 9.0 and later. So if someone using an older version of Acrobat opens your form, the URLs won't work.
Also, as you can see from the "if (xfa.host.name !=...)" line, this code won't run properly if the form is being generated on the server, because forcing a re-layout of a form during docReady can cause problems on certain older versions of the LiveCycle server. If you do need to run this script on the server, you should probably pick a different event then form::docReady.
I a number of complaints from users in WorkSpace that clicking links opened them in the same tab so they lost their WorkSpace form, and there's no option to change that in Designer 11. I think the solution I came up with for that would work for you too.
I made buttons with no border and no background, and in their click event have this line (in Javascript, run at client)
app.launchURL("http:/stackoverflow.com/", true);
It would be easy to add some logic to choose the right URL based on the day and it doesn't cause any form re-rendering.
In some spots where the hyperlink is in line with other text, I leave the text of the link blue and underlined but with no hyperlink, and just place the button (no background, no border, no caption) over it. Does require positioned and not flowed subforms for that to work, so depending on your layout it could get a little clunky.
Wow, just realized I am super late to the party. Well, for anyone using ES4 facing a similar problem . . .
Ended up using a 3rd party component to manipulate the PDF's hyperlinks...wish there was a better solution as this one costs about $1000.
