My work group is attempting to make the change from unstructured to structured Frame, and are attempting to define our structures and corresponding elements. We are on Frame 7.0, and have learned just enough structure to be dangerous. This move is to try to get us into a single-sourcing environment. Eventually. We are using a new project for our documents, and aren't considering any legacy material for the time being.
I am looking for some pieces of information: First, text inserts: The understanding is that these will follow the same EDD as the document(s) they are imported into. By using the associated formats document, different paragraph formats will then be applied. Is this correct? Are there any quirks/differences using text inserts in structured vs. unstructured? Next, conditional text: We have found a plug-in that applies conditions to the elements, but it appears that this will still make our process very manual in the case of text inserts. Right now, the thought is with nested pieces, where some elements need to be hidden for specific information products. Is this the best (or very good) way to do this? Are there better alternatives?
