Hi Lea and Rick
Does it depend on how quickly
you drag the cursor across the text? I'm
using Frame 8 on Win 7 and I've had a few crashes when
resizing an anchored frame
down the page. I can't prove it, but I
feel it might be to do with how quickly I drag the frame handle.
So, if I now have
to make an anchored frame a lot bigger, and drag
the handle a long way down the page, I do it slowly. Seems to have worked so far.
Cheers
Dave

Hi Lea,
I have seen the
same behavior with FrameMaker 7.2 and 8 with Windows 7.

Subject: Framemaker 8, Windows 8.1 and
click-and-drag
Hi all,
I crossed my fingers that FM8 and Win8
would play together reasonably nicely. Its almost fine except
for the above-referenced action: click-and-drag to highlight.
It doesnt always happen, but when it does, FM freezes
irreparably. I have to force it closed, and the autosave may
or may not survive. Argh. I use click-and-drag much more often
than I realized, and its pretty much a dealbreaker.
Im posting less asking for help and more
as a warning for my fellow FM8 holdouts. I suspect that Im
going to end up using Remote Desktop to run my Win7 machine on
which FM8 worked fine. Do not go unto Win8.1 with old
Framemaker; there be monsters.
Lea
