Re: [Framers] Import workspace?

Hi, If you are upgrading from a version prior to FM2015, the workspaces are now buried in a subdirectory: version 11 \Workspaces\Structured version 2015 and 2017 \Workspaces\Structured\WYSIWYGView Hope this helps Cheers, Caroline -Original Message- From: Framers

Re: [Framers] Can the opening banner in FM11 be hacked

You're asking too much :-). You can't configure FrameMaker to only store .book files as recently visited. Here is a suggestion: 1) Create a small text file with the list of the paths to the books you want to access. Put in somewhere easy to get to, like your Desktop. 2) Create a shortcut to your

[Framers] SOLVED RE: Import workspace?

Thanks for the great suggestion to create a workspace and see what happens, Rick. I didn't even have to look at the XML. In FrameMaker 2017, the custom workspace files have the extension .fws (not .cfws). Pat -Original Message- From: Framers

Re: [Framers] Import workspace?

Hi Pat, It could be that the file format has changed a bit between versions. Try creating a custom workspace in FrameMaker 2017 and then examine it with a text editor. You may be able to see if something has changed in the content of the XML file. Rick -Original Message- From: Framers

[Framers] Can the opening banner in FM11 be hacked

When you launch FM11, you have the block that includes Recent Items, Create New, Templates, and Resources. In Recent Items, it includes the last 8 opens, both books and files. As I never open a file without opening the book first, I'd like this banner to only show the last 8 books and not bother

Re: [Framers] Import workspace?

Hi Rick - I found some info online and you have it right (for the most part). But my custom workspaces still don't show up. I've tried restarting FrameMaker. Now I'll try restarting Windows. Thanks - Pat -Original Message- From: Framers

Re: [Framers] Import workspace?

Hi Pat, The short answer is that I don't know for sure, BUT: workspace files are XML files, so you should be able to get them from your current installation and copy them to the new installation. They are located at C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\\WorkSpa ces where is your Windows

Re: [Framers] SPAM -> Re: Can I make a setting that will launch 4 books?

Bottom left side of the Welcome Screen should have a small "Restore Last Session" when using FM 2017. Just tried it. I had 2 files open, exited FM, then relaunched. Saw the default FM Welcome Screen, but that option was there. Clicked it and reopened two files. :) Bernard -Original

Re: [Framers] Can I make a setting that will launch 4 books?

John, I believe the current versions of FrameMaker (not sure when this started) allows you to save the state of what files are open and will reopen with those files automatically opening as part of the next startup process. I remember seeing this in a demo. I'm thinking it started in FM2015
