Hi Doug, I am not sure which object properties you want to show.
When your object properties pod is open, you see the properties of inserted graphics. When you click Insert | Anchored Frame, this opens the Anchored Frame pod. When you now click on any anchored frame, the pod shows immediately the dimensions and the anchoring. However, you will not get the properties of text frames or of FrameMaker graphics objects (lines, rectangles, etc.). Create a new request in the Adobe Tracker: https://tracker.adobe.com/ Post the issue number, and I will vote for it.

Part of the problem is that both text frames and graphic frames use modal Properties dialogs. This means I'm not able to save a workspace while they are on-screen. This is unlike the images themselves, and anchored frames, which use modeless dialogs; I can leave those on-screen all the time. I guess what I need is a way to display a modal dialog in a modeless manner. It seems to be such an arbitrary distinction, text/graphic frames vs. image/anchored frames. In this respect Framemaker seems to be quite behind the standard set by other Adobe apps, like InDesign, Illustrator, etc. On Wed, Dec 11, 2019 at 10:54 AM Lin Sims <ljsims...@gmail.com> wrote: > You can configure a personal workspace that will have the Object > Properties pod viewable at all times, if that's what you mean. > > Click Graphics > Object Properties, make sure it's open on the screen, > then save as a workspace. > > On Wed, Dec 11, 2019 at 9:58 AM Doug <dbailey4...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I want the Properties to display whenever I select a frame.
