Re: [Framers] Default Character Tags
The other thing is to make sure that apply to selection is not selected in the dialog Box when you're naming the character tag only create new format should be selected you get that message when you don't have anything selected to apply the new character tag to that might be the problem Sent from Samsung Galaxy smartphone.Pardon the typos!

Re: [Framers] FrameMaker 14 horrific resource hog?
Make sure that your FM2017 install is fully patched up - many people fall into the trap of thinking that just because they downloaded it yesterday it must have the newest build included - that's a fallacy - the download is the original build at time of release & never changes. Patches must be applied to it right away to get up to the current version. From: Framers on behalf of Harding, Dan Sent: March 20, 2018 4:28 PM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. Subject: [Framers] FrameMaker 14 horrific resource hog? [This message was identified as a phishing scam. Learn about phishing at http://aka.ms/LearnAboutPhishing] I just upgraded from FM12 to FM 14 as I have 4K monitors and FM12 is simply unusable on high res displays. I like to work with many pods open, but find that I simply cannot with FM14, as the lag when moving the cursor with pods open is unbearable. As I close pods, the performance improves, but to get to the point where there is no lag means having at most 1 pod visible at any time. None of my other applications scale so poorly with respect to resource usage. It appears that every time you move the cursor, Frame tries to poll/update every visible pod. Is there any way to make things more usable other than not displaying pods? My workstation is a Dell Precision 5810 with dual Xeon processors and 64GB of RAM running Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit. The only weak point in my system is the video card, which is an AMD FirePro 4100, but it's pushing three 4K monitors and one 3K monitor simultaneously. Even set to 30Hz rather than 60Hz refresh rate, that's a lot of pixels to be pushing around. Would upgrading the video card help in this regard, or are there other issues at play with how Frame updates the display?
