Esteemed colleagues,
I am running Frame10.0.1.402 on an XP SP3 machine. This problem,
however, has been plaguing through Frame 7, 8, and 9.
I have a character style called CrossReference. It has a bold Times New
Roman font and a Blue color. I have been trying for a long time to
figure out why I can’t change the font and make the change stick. I
change the font in a document and save the document. The next time I
open the document the cross references are back to looking the way they
did before I changed the definition of the style.
Hi Thomas,
It would help to clarify questions if you used FM's own terminology.
When you "change the font in a document", what exactly are you doing?
Updating a character tag? Applying a tag to text?
If you are applying a character tag (not a "style") to a cross-reference
that has already been inserted, then it's likely that the change won't
"stick" because every time FM reopens the document, the x-ref's get
updated (= overwritten). The correct way to apply tags to x-ref's is to
include the character tag in the x-ref format definition. All character
tags that you have in your catalog are listed at the bottom of the
Building Blocks list in the Edit Cross-Reference Format dialog box.
Place your cursor in the Definition box at the appropriate place and
click your CrossReference tag in the list; it will appear in <brackets>
in the Definition. Click Change, Done, and the appropriate Update
choice, and save your document.
HTH,
