Hi Craig, If you leave the Add/Edit Variable window open, you just need to double-click on a variable. Then you can change its definition immediately without clicking on Edit first.
However, if the Add/Edit Variable window is not on top of its tab group, it is not shown automatically (like e.g. the Cross-Reference window). Then you must click on the Add/Edit Variable tab to bring it to front. This would be a very good enhancement! Ask for this on the Adobe Feature Request form: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform Best regards Winfried From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Craig Ede Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2013 4:08 PM To: framers Subject: variables interface I have a template with a series of built in variables that have generic content until used in a specific document. Double-clicking on a variable brings up the variables pod where I then have to click Edit to bring up the window wherein I can actually change the content of the variable. Does anybody know a way to do this in one step? (My current process is clearly a more complicated way to have to change variable content than the old interface provided.) If a one-step edit is not possible, can Adobe please add a modifier key that can be pressed when doubled clicking on a variable so that the Edit window is immediately available? Apologies if I'm doing things the hard way and an obvious solution is available. Please clue me in if that is the case. Thanks, framers! Craig
