Length of text flow names reduced

Dear all, FM 11 has another quite disturbing new feature: The length of the name of a textflow is reduced to the size of the window (18 characters with numbers; 12 characters when inserting big M). In Version 9 I could insert any amount of characters in this field. The old names are still visible

The Problem with Long Titles in Generated Lists

I'm sure you've all had the problem with TOCs, LOTs, LOFs, and even indexes. When the title reaches the end of the line (or too many index entries), the tab character that should position the page number at right aligned tab doesn't work, and the page number appears left justified on the second

Re: Automate resolution of broken x-refs after renaming target files?

Yes, that works for me. Select the document you want to rename in the list in the book file, then use FrameMaker's command to rename it. On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 8:42 PM, Mike Wickham i...@mikewickham.com wrote: If I remember right, renaming the files from inside the book window takes care of all

I doubt it. I've currently got FM9 and 11 installed on the same system, FM9 is readable while FM11 shows these awful drop shadows. Harro de Jong From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] on behalf of Craig Ede

FM and Distiller distort Visio drawing

Hi everybody,   I have a simple Visio drawing containing basic Visio shapes (e.g., a rectangle with a green background). I inserted a PNG (an icon with a transparent background) via Insert--Picture--From File and put it on top of the rectangle. So far, everything looked perfect. However, when I

Re: The Problem with Long Titles in Generated Lists

Chris Despoupolis's (sp?) TocBreaker might be of use. You'd have to insert your soft returns once and run TocBreaker to save the information. After that, you run TocBreaker after regenerating. (http://cudspan.net/) It works with all generated lists. You can use Google to search the archives by

Another way I've done this is to insert at least 3 tab characters (not tab stops) before the page number. Maybe that will give you a bit of automation for those long entries. On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 11:02 AM, Jay Mahler j...@mahler.com wrote: I’m sure you’ve all had the problem with TOCs, LOTs,

straightforward approach for adding icons to paragraph tag? (no tables, macros, or multiple tags, please)

Somebody wants Note and Caution icons to the left of paragraphs. For single-source motives I don't want multiple paragraph tags or a table. I want to define the Caution and Note paragraph tags so the icon appears at the left in PDF output. If it doesn't appear in FrameMaker that's fine. Is there

Hmmm ... I could do it with Autonumber Format if I could find a dingbat font with the right icons. On Mon, Jun 3, 2013 at 11:35 AM, Robert Lauriston wrote: > Somebody wants Note and Caution icons to the left of paragraphs. > > For single-source motives I don't want multiple paragraph tags or a

OK, Autonumber Format works. Deja Vu Sans has the dingbat, if I set the character tag to 24 pt and Subscript, it looks about right. I used the Frame Above Pgf and Frame Below Pgf to add horizontal rules. On Mon, Jun 3, 2013 at 11:50 AM, Robert Lauriston wrote: > Hmmm ... I could do it with
