Superscript by FindChangBy.JSX

[suryakant256115023evw]

Hi all,

I have a file containing 

^{2}  OR _{2}

I want matter in {.....} Superscript. 

I have added below line in FindChangeBy supporting file

Where and how to add Superscript/Subscript.

grep {findWhat:"(\\^\\{)(.+?)(\\})"} {changeTo:"$2"} ...

I would say first check your grep from the find change dialog and when you see it working then use the FindChange file. Now if your requirement is just to find text within {} and replacing if with the text without {} then the following should work

Find 

\{([^{}]+)\}

Change To

$1

If this does not work then please share the text and explain what you wanted and what you are getting

Thanks,

I tried FindChange. It is working fine.

The reason I ask is  IN same file I have make many changes, and keep 1-set ready for future use also.

So you mean that the query I gave worked with FindChange dialog and now you want that to work through the FindChangeByList file?

Sorry. What you gave is selecting everything between  {.....}

But my matter sequence is    ^{2}   OR     _{2}

(A) $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}$\\
(C) $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$\\
(B) $\mathrm{km} \mathrm{s}$\\
(D) $\mathrm{km} \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Your command is selecting {km} also.   My commend is selecting matter correctly.  Only problem is make superscript or subscript.

Mistakenly Marked as Correct Answer.   How to Undo it??

Added to above

Your command is selecting {km} also.   My commend is selecting matter correctly.  Only problem is make superscript or subscript by FindChangeByList.

Apply a character style with the superscript/subscript set. That should work I think

Not sure if it is working for you now - but if not - can you post screenshots of BEFORE and AFTER? Examples of what exactly are you trying to achieve.

Please send us a sample INDD file and the sample txt file with your query and we can test it. A statement saying it does not work with no supporting data isn't too helpfull to identify the problem
