Has anyone else noticed a delay when using F8/F9 for apply formats in FM11?
We set up the shortcuts for styles years ago so we only had to 1-3 keys for
applying them. It seems to me in FM11 with the format list popping up, there's
a 1/2 second or longer delay when trying to apply styles.

Hi Carla,
Yes, I have seen this, particularly with long lists of formats. It is very
frustrating. I have been thinking of writing a script that will mimic the
old behavior, but I am not sure what is possible.

Hi Carla
Yes, I see this too, also in Structured mode, when I'm using CTRL+1, 2 or 3
to insert, wrap or change elements. Very annoying indeed. The shortcut
menu with the list of formats or elements isn't really a shortcut menu
anymore. I want the good old (but fast!) Fm8 behavior back.
Cheers

Hi, Kapil.
Okay, I just got off the phone with somebody in the FrameMaker team. Her
statement to me was that the Update Plan for FrameMaker is indeed either dead,
or essentially not available anymore to anybody who has less than 10,000 points
in the Adobe systems.

Thanks for bringing this to Adobe’s attention. I’m sorry you’ve had this
problem for a couple of days now.
I’ve escalated this issue, and have been told that Adobe IT is looking into the
problem. A further update when I have more information on this.

Hi Carla,Yes, there's a delay the first time you use Smart Insert in a doc, and if you type too rapidly, there's usually an error in which tag is selected. I've also seen where the correct tag is visible (perhaps at the bottom of the list of available tags, but a different tag is actually

Why do you feel a need to stop using FrameMaker just because you don't
want to send Adobe any more money?
I own a number of old Adobe apps that still work fine. I use Photoshop
5 and Acrobat 8 all the time. I still have FrameMaker 6 and
Illustrator 7, though haven't had reason to install them on

Odd that performance has degraded over time. You might try
defragmenting the hard drive, though with modern hardware that really
shouldn't cause much trouble.
Has anyone else noticed a delay when using F8/F9 for apply formats in FM11?
We set up the shortcuts for styles years ago so we only had to 1-3 keys for
applying them. It seems to me in FM11 with the format list popping up, there's
a 1/2 second or longer delay when trying to apply styles.
