OK. Can anyone confirm if the other commands are lost too? Such as the meta key commands? I can't install this new version onto my old computer.

That would mean buying the scripts, buying FrameScript to run them when this functionality should be a core part of the application. Just being an independent means I don't a lot of money to chuck at filling holes the developers have exposed simply because they wanted to add more 'features'. Gotta say, I am starting to look at other applications. Building a class file in LaTeX would be as time consuming, and in the end possible productive.

If you type "t2" and press enter, the first style starting with a "t" will highlight, and then it switches to the first heading style that starts with the number 2, and enter will select the "2" style. > Sorry, but I have never had any faith in Adobe's desire to listen. > In general our requests for changes have gone unheard/ignored. We tried to tell them this during beta. According to the developers, FM9 is built on a whole new platform, and they were unable to duplicate exactly some of the features we've used for years. They finally listened when we told them that the para sort order was a big issue, and they provided the option to change it in the last beta build. Several of us said that the default setting for SymbolSortingBeforeAlphaNumeric in the maker.ini file should be ON, not OFF, but at least we CAN change it. > I think that may well be a deal breaker for me - all the other good stuff aside. Please, file your comments with Adobe. Let them know that YOU find this a deal-breaker, and why. Now, all that said, a couple of the beta testers who write FrameScripts said they could probably come up with a script to solve this issue. I'd certainly pay for the script if they do. -Carla - CONFIDENTIAL- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential, and may also be legally privileged.

Maybe they will fix it in FM10, thus giving us a good reason to buy that release. . . ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.

So what you're saying is that it only responds to the first letter you press and if you press the second it then jumps to the style that starts with that, if there is one? Sorry, but I have never had any faith in Adobe's desire to listen. In general our requests for changes have gone unheard/ignored. I think that may well be a deal breaker for me - all the other good stuff aside. I use FM purely as a production tool. I use it because it is not a DTP app. and I need to get through large amounts of text without fussing with the program. This changes renders FM about as useful for me as InDesign.
