There was a discussion quite a while back about the Paragraph Designer freezing if you adjusted the tabs on the ruler, rather than within the Paragraph Designer. Could that be a part of your problem?

It appears others have this same issue with the paragraph designer etc. ?I have had my T5500, 64 bit, Win7 for about 6 mo.

I'll return to lurkdom, for the time being, duly corrected. I sympathize with Karen: It's unfortunate that anyone with a setup as robust as hers appears to be has to struggle with the functionality problems she outlines. ?From: Fred Ridder [mailto:docudoc at hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2011 8:13 PM To: Pinkham, Jim; kmann at i-t-tech.com; framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: RE: FrameMaker 9I'm afraid it may not be worth very much as a data point, because there is a world of difference between Windows XP and any 64-bit version of Windows Vista or (more likely in Karen's case because she does refer to a "new Dell") Windows 7. When the issue is the stability (or lack thereof) of an application, the specific version of the OS is?likely to be at least as much a factor as any of the hardware details with the possible exception of the amount of RAM. And the migration from 32-bit to 64-bit addressing was a major change that seems to have caused compatibilty and/or stability issues with a lot of apps. ?Subject: RE: FrameMaker 9 Date: Thu, 19 May 2011 19:53:02 -0500 From: jim.pink...@voith.com To: kmann at i-t-tech.com; framers at lists.frameusers.comFWIW, I've been using FM 9 with these specs at work since December, and I've never run into the bug you're experiencing:?Dell Precision T3400Win XP SP 380GB HD2.67 gigahertz Intel Core2 Duo 64 kilobyte primary memory cache 4096 kilobyte secondary memory cache (3.3 GB usable installed memory) 64-bit ready Multi-core (2 total) Not hyper-threaded?I'm habitually running Office 2003, Acrobat X, and Illustrator CS 5 and half a dozen other things.
