By menu-to-ribbon, are you referring to Word? If yes, click on this link, then click "Start the guide":

We actually purchased 9.0 then down-graded (yes, you can do that) to
FM8. High volume shop, NO time for an (un)learning curve.

Are there any menu-to-ribbon road maps that one might recommend?
Eventually, a CMS upgrade will force us to go the FM9.

I was cranky about it at first, but I got used to it.

Can these behavior be changed. I
do not want dialogs to be persistent. I do
not want the "Not Applicable" element as the first in
any selectable list.

I don't know. You may need to take some time to wade
through maker.ini
and see if there's anything in there that can be changed.

IMHO, the changes made in FM9 are just eye-candy and
do not add anything to
the whole experience of working with Frame Maker. In
fact, I find it a bit
of a chore to use it.
I agree with this. Jumping into FM9 after having used FM
for roughly
12 years was a bit of a surprise. While I didn't have time
to poke
through every feature, I had difficulty wrapping my head
around the UI
for conditional text (I'm still fuzzy on the order in which
selections
need to be made in the UI in order for things to "stick").
Granted I
was in the "UI changes are not necessary" camp from the
beginning -
because the tool worked very well, as ugly as it may have
been - but I
think too much time was spent upgrading the UI and not
enough time was
spent use testing with veteran users.

Just as with the MS Office ribbon, one should not have to
completely
relearn how to use software after a UI update. The same
logic,
keyboard shortcuts, and expected behavior should be
maintained.
