Hi Becky,
If you're going to use automatic change bars, it's important to understand
what is marked as a change when this command is activated. For example,
updated cross-references are marked as a change; updated graphics that are
imported by reference are not marked as a change; updated graphics that are
imported with a different file name are marked as a change; etc.
If you're experiencing undesirable results, mark the changes manually. It
takes a little longer, but the peace of mind is worth it.
Also, the compare document feature mentioned in a previous e-mail doesn't do
a good job identifying changes in tables or graphics. It also introduces
conditional text to the document, which adds a layer of complexity to the
document. It's a useful tool, but probably not the best solution for your
situation.
Good luck,
Dave Bills

Subject: Change bars in Framemaker
My framehating coworker requested that I send this question in. We use
automatic change bars every time we work on our files. Big ones, 10 pt
thickness, on the left side of the column. When my coworker works on a
file, it will add change bars in areas he hasn't touched, such as chapter
titles. He gets very frustrated over it. And by the way, is having
automatic change bars turned on all the time a good idea?
Thanks for any answers, and have a pleasant weekend!
Becky Frasure
