By the way, you've been very helpful! I've learned great shortcuts by watching your videos! Thank you so much!

You can use a combo with a class and a negative class. To find what is not something, put a ^ in the beginning of a class. To find everything that is NOT a digit: [^0-9]. You’ll have to customize from there. Good luck and check out Treasures of GREP on FB. They are super helpful!!

@@EricaGamet thank you!

I'm glad you found it helpful!

If you only want the 0 to change when it’s by itself, put \b before and after the zero. \b0\b

Glad you like them! I have some more GREP videos on the CreativePro channel (KZbin.com/CreativePro).

Glad it was helpful!

GREP really doesn’t see lines. It works across each paragraph. And if you fixed one line, the paragraph composer would adjust to fit. The best you could do is keep short parts of hyphenated words at the end.

Oh very cool to know! 😀

You’ll have to be able to find a pattern. If they’re like an acronym then you can find multiples in a row. If people set them in caps with the cap lock on though, they might not change. Lastly, you can write an expression, then do Find… then hit Change/Find Next to manually step through each found text. You can then change it from the f/c dialog box or click skip.

Thanks for that! What a lovely comment. Recharging is so important... and I was all go, go, go back then... lot more recharging these days. As you can see, I don't do much with my channel. I keep saying I will soon. I do a lot of content on other people's channels... but I'm trying to get back to my own. I loved those views there... Truth or Consequences, NM (from when I lived in El Paso). Be safe out there!

Glad it was helpful!

Sorry for the delay.... that's strange. I help run the InDesign Secrets FB group... we have nearly 30K members and they are always ready to jump in and help (and you can post screenshots which is super helpful).

So glad they are helpful! 😀

I'm so glad!

Glad it was helpful! I have a lot more videos on the @CreativePro channel these days.

I have a lot of videos on the CretivePro KZbin channel. KZbin.com/CreativePro I haven’t had much time to post here, but there is a lot of ID content over there! Thanks for watching!

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to find and then what you want done with it? The second part will determine if you're going to need to do a find/change or if you can build it into the style. Are you trying to find either of those expressions? And assuming the amount could be anything. If the saying doesn't appear ever outside of the parentheses (which I assume is what you're calling brackets... I'm using the American English of course) then you won't most likely need them in your expression. When you say brackets, you mean ( ). Anyway, let me know a little more and we can write this up for you.

Glad it helped!

Thanks so much for watching!

Basically $ is a non-character. In other words it’s just a location indicating where characters might be. is a return character and can be selected, deleted, etc. Hope that helps!

The slide duration is set by the transition speed. So on slide 1, build a transition to 2 and set it with a delay. That delay amount will come after the last build is done and then it will transition to slide 2. When exporting to a movie for iMovie use, export as Apple ProRes4444 and set the timings to zero. That’ll keep all your timings you’ve already set. -EG

@@EricaGamet thanks, very clear and helpful

It’s a great group for sure. Celebrating 10 years this month!

Playing around and figured it out if any on needs it \w+\s\w+[.]$ will apply it to the last two words the space between them and the period seems needed since its looking for the string.

@@KIngaiune Yep... that catches the last character of the penultimate word, the space, the last full word and a period (which can also be written "\." (without the quotes). If you wanted to include other punctuation, you could put that inside the character class (brackets) or use the catch-all of: [[:punct:]]. You could also use \h to instead of \s to catch all horizontal space (in case someone snuck in an en space). \w\h\w+[[:punct:]]$ Alternatively, you could break this into subexpressions and replace that final space with a non-breaking space (as opposed to assigning the character style that doesn't break). (\w)\h(\w+[[:punct:]]$) and change to $1~S$2

THE best book on GREP is by the wonderful Mr. Peter Kahrel. It's available from InDesignSecrets/CreativePro here: creativepro.com/product/grep-in-indesign/ You won't regret buying it... I use it all the time!

So glad it was helpful! -EG

I believe there is a new script that does this (it can’t be done natively). Try this: bit.ly/3JbnFap
