Dear all, On 24 Jul 2009 I reported about the following effect:
> After working on toolbars, the utilities Character Palette and Hex Input > are not executing any more. Clicking on the menu item does nothing. By chance I have found the reason for this behaviour when I noticed that everything worked correctly when starting FM-9 from a shortcut and the problem occurs when starting FM-9 from my launch bar RipBar. It turns out that the effect appears only, if FM-9 is invoked with DOS- names like H:\Adobe\FRAMEM~1.9EN\FRAMEM~1.EXE. Everything works fine when using long Windows names (H:\Adobe\framemaker.9en\FrameMaker.exe). It seems that the utilities are called from the main program with a special mechanism where this difference counts. Don't ask me how I got the DOS names, but I have noticed that even standard Windows shortcuts may get these.
