Free lightning brain sendtomaster indesign plug software for mac

The SendToMaster Plug-In moves items on a page to the master page.

Before you can use the SendToMaster Plug-In you also have to install our free Active Page Item Runtime Plug-In, which is available as a separate download.

Mac users can instead also download a combined disk image that contains both the SendToMaster Plug-In and the Active Page Item Runtime Plug-In.

Lightning Brain StoryParker for InDesign 1.0.7 is created as a useful plug-in which aims at helping you cope with cluttered pages. It adds a number of context menus to various page items
Every page item can be temporarily 'parked' - meaning: you can put it aside, somewhere on the pasteboard, and quickly move it back to exactly where it came from some time later.
Stories spread over linked text boxes can also be parked all together.

The idea is to help you get one or more page items out of the way quickly, for example because you want to reach something that's underneath. Later on, you can move the page items back to their exact original position with a single click.

The neat thing is that parked page items 'remember' where they came from - you can 'unpark' them, which causes them to fly back to the exact location they had before you parked them.
Parked items are put on the pasteboard, and can be moved around freely from there - any movement while they are parked is ignored and forgotten the instant you unpark them.

There is a neat extra trick for text boxes: the context menu you get by right-clicking or control-clicking a text box will also allow you to park the whole story.

All text boxes that contain parts of the same 'text flow' or story are parked together.

Requirements:

• InDesign CS, CS2 or CS3
  

Lightning Brain LayerLifter for InDesign 1.0.1 gives you a useful method to use the layers palette for moving objects between layers. It also has an optional feature to nudge all items on the layer throughout the whole document or across the current spread. First select one or more objects on a spread, and then right-click (Win) or control-click (Mac), and pick a destination layer from the LayerLifter context menu.

Lightning Brain Color2Gray for InDesign allows you to convert placed color photos to grayscale without modifying the original color image.
Sometimes you want a particular picture to be output as a grayscale image, yet the original image is in color. You could open it in Photoshop and convert it to grayscale, but you can instead also use this plug-in. The original image is not changed and remains in color, yet it is output as a grayscale image. The gray image will only render on the black (K) plate.
This is a hybrid plug-in collection: part is written in C++, part is written in ExtendScript/JavaScript. As a result, it has three plug-in components.
The three plug-ins that need to be present for this to work are:
- an up-to-date Active Page Item Runtime or equivalent
- a Color2Gray.spln scripted plug-in (with .spln file name extension). All platforms share the same scripted plug-in file. On Windows this file carries a generic icon.
- a platform-specific Color2Gray plug-in (with .pln file name extension; the name will differ for CS/CS2/Mac/Win - its Color2Gray.pln)
Yes, youll need two plug-ins that have Color2Gray in their file name: one is a scripted plug-in, the other is a regular plug-in.
Make sure you install the correct plug-ins for your version of InDesign. InDesign CS Plug-Ins and InDesign CS2 Plug-Ins are mutually incompatible, and Windows Plug-Ins dont work so well on Mac.
To make it easier, weve prepared ready-to-copy sets of plug-ins - you may dig into the appropriate disk image or folder and copy the three items from there to your plug-ins folder.
Please read the Remarks below - our software evolves over time, and you might need to separately update some of the individual plug-ins.

Lightning Brain StoryParker adds a number of context menus to various page items (i.e. select page item, and do control-click (Mac) or right-click (Mac, Windows). Look for the Active Page Item Runtime menu).

Lightning Brain StoryParker will also add a number of menu items in a submenu of the API menu on the menu bar. These menu items can be assigned a keyboard shortcut if so desired.

Every page item can be temporarily parked. Meaning: you can put it aside, somewhere on the pasteboard, and later quickly move it back to where it came from.

Lightning Brain LikeFindsLike helps you quickly select a bunch of similar items that are scattered all over a page or a spread. Instead of having to shift-click-click-click to select a number of scattered frames of the same type, you can now select a single frame, and then use the Select All Similar function to select all the other similar frames in one go.

A typical example usage is to manage pages that have multiple copies of a few intermingled frame types: there are image frames for some pictures, and each of those image frames is accompanied by a caption frame right underneath.
