Scott,
I'm quite experienced with this issue and may be able to assist with setting
up a Windows solution that runs smoothly and for most parts compensate for
the poor TIFF implementation FrameMaker users have to deal with.

Hello Framers,
Recently was scripting a palette, using eForm and eListBox objects. While these
were handy and one can do multi-selections and run sub-routines at a click or
double-click, I came across something which I was not able to solve yet. If I
want to move an item from one list into
Interesting idea, Matt,
I set up a simple test, and the answer is no, it doesn't hold the format.
I changed one of the link formats to have no character formatting at all.
Applied the cross-reference. Term was happily in small caps. Updated the book,
and WHAM, it's back to normal case.

As Alan state:
The application of styles used is sequential, so one style is used until it
is replaced by another, until the end of the cross reference when it returns
the paragraph default. That should mean that you should be able to use the
Default setting building block, then the small caps sty

If I understand Jenny's question, the Xref is losing the formatting provided
in the variable.
If that's the case, I doubt you'll be able to get the xref formatting you're
looking for. The xref only has the option of formatting the <$paratext>, not
specific parts of the paratext.

At this point one wishes that FM had an Actions function a la Photoshop.

Thanks, Alan. I looked at that approach, but I can't apply the character format
in the cross-reference definition, because other words in the cross reference
are not set in small caps. There is another character format applied to the
x-ref...maybe they are clashing? The references are like this

You need to create a Character Style that defines Small Caps, then in the
cross reference definition apply it there. From Help it says:
"Including character formats in cross-references

small caps.

Here's the history. We've been using these same images for years with older

Using the limited version installed by frame. I know the updates are there for
frame, but will have to check the ones for acrobat and the hot fix. I will
assume no.
That will be a good place to start.
