So I am making a ms word template and was creating a custom style that would have a pre-determined text. Example is, after clicking the custom style, it would generate an auto text:
Fig.1. Insert text here
Would that be possible?
Best regards.
No, this is not possible. Static text cannot be part of a Word style. If you're numbering something, then you can include static text as part of the numbering definition, for example Figure + number. Link the numbering definition to a style and you'll get that text when applying the style. But everytime you apply the style the number will increment.
Otherwise, use BuildingBlocks/AutoText, formatted with the style, and insert that - which will automatically apply the style.

Is there a way to automatically update the content of a word field based on a text I type?
i.e. I have a table with two cells. The left cell contains a QR Code generated by
{ Displaybarcode "Just a Text " QR \s 40 \t }
The rigtht cell contains "Just a text"
Is there a way to update the QR code (actually a word field) based on what I type in the right cell?
So, if I change the text to "I just changed that text!"
I would get this:
I do not mind pressing Ctrl-F9, but I would not want to edit the field itself.
Is that possible?

I would put the area for the text in a mapped Content Control and use a copy of that control in the DisplayBarCode field as the text portion. The field would need to be updated.

Is there a way to change the text in a dashboard based on a value?
At its most basic, I want to be able to plug in the word 'increased' or 'decreased' based on a change from year to year for a report.
If you mean the free-floating Text object from the same menu as vertical / horizonal containers, Blanks, etc. then you can only use parameters and a few "special" values like Workbook Name.
However, you can use a worksheet as a textbox instead. Just make sure you clear the default formatting (borders, etc.) and put your calculated field that resolves into "increased" / "decreased" on the Text mark. In the same way you can add up or down arrows using CHR() function and set custom colours (by creating two calculated fields that resolve into "increased" and "" and "decreased" and "")
is there any way I can display formula symbols in a static text on a gui?
Or is the only option to add a jpg?
Static text boxes don't support TeX/LateX formatting. You will need to use either the text or annotation functions (example here).
I have MS Word document which i used manually defined style named S11 "based on characters". Now i want to make table of content using text with S11 style.
I had created table of content using "paragraph based" style using predefined and also manual styles before.
But now when i want to create table of content in the "table of content option" dialogue box, I only see the paragraph based styles to choose from.
I don't want to use paragraph based style for my text because it applied to whole paragraph and i want some text within normal paragraph to be in S11 text.
for example you can think of some proverb that I used in content of a thesis and at the end of thesis i want to have list of all proverb used in the thesis and the page that I used them (I styled the proverbs in S11 style to bold them from normal text inside the content).
Is ther any way?
Simply stated -
I want to have a scrollable text field with a paragraph of text. Some of the sentences should be bold and blue while others are red and normal, while the remainder is simple black/normal text.
Any way to alter the text attributes 'within / amongst' the text?
Thanks!
A lie for your sanity: no, you cannot
do this.
The truth (use with caution): You can
create attributed strings... using
core text (but just don't even bother
lol - its not worth it).
The compromise: Use a UIWebView and
HTML. :) Can't say fairer than that.
