A simple numbering question

[Joel]

I want to produce the following paragraph tag results:

A. Sentence A with the letter A and a period.
B. The following sentence with the letter B and a period, but using the same
paragraph tag.

Currently, I have two tags to accomplish this, with the following numbering:

B:A=1.\t
B:A+1.\t

I would like one tag instead of two. I'm sure there is a better way, can you
suggest it? Thanks,

Joel

You can define the autonumber format of the preceding paragraph format to reset 
the numbering. In your case, like this: 

B: =0

You could define your standard body text format to reset the numbering, or 
maybe some/all heading formats. It depends on your template design, how this 
numbering series is used, and whether you have other numbering series. In the 
online help or manual, look up autonumbering, and in particular using counters, 
for more information. 

With a bit of careful thought, you can have multiple numbered lists that are 
all automatically restarted when appropriate without needing special paragraph 
formats to restart the numbering.

accepting all changes sometimes doesn't work

[Fred Wersan]

I am using Frame 8 with the change tracking feature. There are a few 
spots in my doc where when I say Accept All changes, the text marked for 
removal does not get removed. The color gets changed to black, but 
that's all. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, did you find a cure?

RE: accepting all changes sometimes doesn't work

[Alison Craig]

I use FM9 and I sometimes have Track Changes text that doesn't disappear when I 
accept the changes. It doesn't turn black though, it stays in the original 
red/green so at least it stick out.

Also, if I create a table with Track Changes on, when I accept the text, the 
End of Flow symbol in each cell may remain green (I haven't found a pattern to 
what is properly accepted and what isn't).

RE: A simple numbering question

[Jay Mahler]

I agree. Zeroing lists with Body tags and some lists on each chapter or header 
tag is something I highly recommend. My Numbering format for Body tags often 
look something like this: N: =0 =0 =0

Then, I can have simple formats for Numbered, Numbered-A, Numbered-a, etc. 
There is nothing I hate more than a template required by a client that has a 
bunch of Numbered-1, Numbered; Numbered-A-1, Numbered-A, etc. formats. It just 
makes the document harder to maintain.

Looking for a FMKR tutor

[smcurtzwiler]

Hi all, 



 Please, I need a Super Hot Shot FrameMaker tutor.  I have no idea of the 
rates, all I can say is that I have been out of work for over a year. 



Anyone have any ideas.  I am probably loosing the job I just started, so I need 
to get up to speed so that I can survive the next job. 



I know the theory of keeping graphics and files in the same folder, but when I 
move them to another folder and rename to preserve the original files, the 
world falls apart on me.  

I also need help so that I can consistently update and troubleshoot TOC and 
Index. 



Reading the FMKR books doesn't seem to be enough, I could really use someone to 
talk me through this to get up to speed. 



Pretty basic, I know, but I get lost on this stuff. 



Thanks, 

Sue 

smcurtzwi...@comcast.net
