Hi Bernard
Thanks for ultra-rapid and comprehensive response, and Yves Barbion, Paul
Wilbraham and John Posada too. Structure doesn't seem quite so scary with you
guys around ;-)
I think the big issue is to know what the structure of this is. For example,
do you have something like:
Fig
2:39 PM
Subject: Figure titles in structured FrameMaker
I am currently placing figure titles in a text frame within the figure's
anchored frame to lock the two in the required relative positions. I cannot
see that it is possible, however, to specify this in an EDD. Is there any
way of doing

If the frame anchor paragraph is made tiny, it looks
as if you've selected only the anchored frame.

Hello Steve,
you could also encapsulate the graphic in a dedicated table, for example
a table which consists of 2 rows (and which has no ruling): a
heading row for the graphic itself and a body row for the figure title.
This will give you more control over the "relative positions", but also

Hi, Fred...never said it didn't. After all, it is a paragraph tag, so
it must be a paragraph. However, in my case, my achored from is
designated as "at insertion point" and I shrinkwrap all my graphics
(esc m p). To me, it doesn't matter that it is a paragraph attribute
as the graphic is the only
