For security reasons, you can't send attachments (or HTML mail) to the list -- 
only plain text messages. So no one else saw the screen shot you provided in 
the PDF. 

I decided to live dangerously and take a look. :-) You had said:

Now I see what you meant -- not override rule, but _overflow_ rule. The picture 
you sent shows a small text frame filled to overflowing with text, indicated by 
the solid border along the bottom. I assume this is just an illustrative 
example. The main text frame on a page should have Autoconnect turned on so 
that new pages are created as needed. Autoconnect is generally only turned off 
for small disconnected text frames used for callouts, pull quotes, etc. The 
person creating these and their contents is responsible for ensuring that they 
are sized right and the contents don't overflow. 

Do you just want to change the appearance of the solid border so that the 
overflow problem is more visually apparent? There is no way within FrameMaker 
to do that. Maybe someone who has experience with Resource Hacker 
(http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/) knows whether that ruling line is a 
"resource" that could be modified -- I doubt it. 

I think the solution -- if, indeed, this happens often enough to be a 
time-consuming problem -- lies in changing the document design, the workflow, 
or maybe the attentiveness of those creating the problem. :-)
