Drat - What's the short cut key sequence for this on FM 7.x and Win XP? I'm sure I seen it recently. Also, where can I find a comprehensive list of short cuts? There seem to be a fair number missing from the Quick Reference Card. Any help greatly appreciated Will White One Lambda, Inc

Anyone out there in FrameLand know of plugins that allow book-wide renaming and deletion of Conditions and X-Refs? Sort of along the lines of the Silicon Prairie Character and Paragraph Tools? Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Will White One Lambda, Inc CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE. This e-mail

RE: Question about setting up master pages for an Index

Howdy - The index title should not be on the master page, but in the regular text flow of the first body page. Check out the FM Manual index topic - text:static. This will solve the vexing problem. And yes, I've learnt and forgotten this same issue several times. IMHO this topic is poorly indexed.

Cross-reference nightmare - help needed

2007-03-22 Thread White, William
Hi Sage If you have tried all the obvious things, here's one more possibility. I've encountered FM documents with cross-references that have become corrupted because the the X-Refs contain legacy filenames for the target documents. I presume this arises because an earlier user renamed the target d

As I see it, I am happier with a solid core FM program where the field is left open for 3rd party types to develop plugins.
