I was going to stay out of this, but it happens to me every day of the week -- whenever I try to use my mouse and the Framemaker scroll bar (instead of touchpad scroll or arrows/pg up/down).
Random crashes. Has nothing to do with graphics. Just reaching for/moving the scroll bar with a certain velocity. It happened with 7.1 and I was hoping it'd be fixed by 7.2. but no go. I searched once for a bug/solution and never saw it mentioned so I figured it was my machine. But it's been happening for at least a year now even after I switched machines...

I am running FrameMaker 7.1 on Windows XP. (And Christopher, I am not a newbie--I have been using Fm for well over 10 years.) The last time FM crashed in this way, I had just imported an image (gif), reduced the size, and was adjusting the frame with the bottom center handle.

What version of FM, & what platform? Pete Rourke Chandler, AZ -----Original Message----- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Brewster, Christopher C Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2008 5:11 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: FM abruptly closes with no save I've been learning FM in the middle of a project, and it sometimes seems a bit ornery. I'm inserting graphics linked from a Powerpoint file. First I do Special > Anchored Frame, and set "Top of column". Then I paste the graphic into the frame. Twice today, after I have done this process 5 or 10 times, I perform the first step and suddenly FM closes without saving. Since contemporary software usually includes a Newbie Detector Module to make things more exciting for the beginner, maybe someone could suggest a way to make myself less obvious to the NDM. Thanks.
