Hi Linda...

That popup only displays when you're in an element that can't have another of the same elements as the next element (following sibling). When you're testing on different computers are you testing in the exact same situation? Pressing ENTER at the end of a <p> will just give you another <p> (no popup), but pressing ENTER at the end of a <title> should give you the popup. I'm not aware of a configuration that will turn that on or off (might be one though).

Personally, I never use the popup. I always have the Element Catalog open and use that for inserting new elements.

Hope that helps!

Hi,

We are authoring DITA xml using FrameMaker 2015 XML Author mode in Author
View. To add an element, I am able to position my cursor after the
preceding element, press Enter and then I am presented with a list of
elements in a scroll list that I can choose from to be inserted. However,
several other writers in the group (who have the exact same version of FM
that I am using), are not getting the scroll list to select the element
from when they perform these steps.

I haven't changed any settings in FM. Has anyone else seen this
inconsistent behavior? What is the preferred method for inserting an
element?

Thanks,

Linda
