Hi All,
I have inherited a template that needs to be greatly simplified. In the Master pages of this template, there is a page called "First," and on this page, there is a Header Text frame. In this frame, I have placed the system Variable Running H/F 1, and I have defined this variable as Chapter:<$chapnum>. The Numbering Properties for the first chapter in the book is set to Chapter 1, Numeric Format, and the Numbering properties for all subsequent chapters in the book are set to Continue Numbering from Previous Chapter, Numeric Format. Sounds simple, right? Well, no matter what I do, after saving and updating all files in this book, what is showing on the Body page is Chapter: <$chapnum Yep, just like that - the partial variable definition of $chapnum instead of the actual chapter number. I am at a complete loss for this - I have never seen this before. The variable is fully contained in the header text frame and when I click on it on the Master Page to edit it, I see the variable completely and properly defined, so why it is displaying like this, I can't explain. I have never seen this before. FM 12, Win 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.
