Dumb, obvious question
At least I hope it is. Using Frame 7 on Windows, I want to take all text that uses a particular character tag, make it conditional, and hide it. I'm pretty sure I've done this before, but I can't remember, or figure out, how to do it again. How do I apply a condition to a character tag? Thanks. Bob Love people. Use things. Not vice-versa. -- Kelly Rothaus ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.

Sorry, Bob, you can't apply conditions to character tags. 8 You can find the character tag then manually apply the condition. Karen L. Zorn Zorn Technologies, Inc.

RE: Dumb, obvious question
Correct as far as it goes, but not the whole story. The whole story is much more useful: -Start by applying the desired condition to any text selection. -Choose EditCopy SpecialConditional Text Settings. -Choose EditFind/Change. Set up the dialog to Find the desired character tag, and to Change By Pasting. In this case what you're pasting is only the conditional test setting. My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.
