Hello Framers,
I have a script in development that streamlines the process of inserting
cross-references. It works with a two-pass process. The first pass collects
potential cross-reference targets and stores them in a database file. The
second pass is where you can quickly insert cross-references to those
sources. A floating palette lists all of the cross-reference sources and the
cross-reference formats in the document. You click in the document where you
want the cross-reference, select the cross-reference format and source on
the palette and click Insert. It offers two main advantages over
FrameMaker's Cross-Reference dialog box:
1) The palette is modeless so it can stay open while you work in the
document.
2) You can insert external cross-references without having to open the
source document.
The script can work with element, spot, and paragraph cross-references. If
you are interested in this kind of script, please contact me offlist, and I
will send you some screenshots. Thank you very much.
