I struggling to figure out how I can work with a selection of text in Quark
Xpress. There are loads of examples of doing global changes on documents, text
boxes, stories. What I want is a means of working with a just highlighted
selection of text. E.G. HIghlight an area of text have the script do something
to the highlighted text. For instance:
Apply a style tag to the text then add a Webding character and a tab to the
front of each highlighted line.
Have an intelligent title maker that looks at each word in the highlighted text
and capitalizes the initial character in the word ?if it is not a the first and
is a conjunction (a, and, the)
I can't get over the first hurdle naming working with a selection of text.
