Steve,
Using marker-based cross-references, FrameMaker cannot search for
cross-references to a particular location (although it can be done in MIF,
using FrameScript, or with an FDK client).

the cross-reference itself can
Hi Marcus,
I've enjoyed our exchange. The contrast between Micheal's and Eliot's
opinions is fascinating, and insightful. Eliot has a long-standing
reputation in the markup languages community, while Michael's reputation
is solid as a designer of DITA and much of the underlying XSLT
Ok,
I have tried searching the archives for this, but the searchable messages
don't go back far enough in time. I distinctly remember a discussion about
what the m and p represented in the Esc m p command for anchored frames.
Fred Ridder also supplied a succinct description of why this
Tammy -- this behaviour was scripted for equations created using
FrameMath.
We just get the bonus of having it work for other anchored frames. g
AFAIK, there is no way to change this default behaviour.
The workaround is to type Esc-s-a after Esc-m-p and choose the setting
you want.

Tammy,
The anchored frame moves because one of those commands sets the anchored
frame to At insertion point instead of Below insertion point, which I'm
guessing was your setting before running the command.
I don't know how to shrinkwrap without this change, but suspect someone else

If you initially set the anchored frame postion to be
Below Current Line, using ESC mp to shrink the size of
the anchored frame to the size of the contained
graphic object changes the anchored frame position to
At Insertion Point. To restore the original position
after shrinking it, you must click
The explanation I had always heard was that the m p
mnemonic stood for math, package, and that the
command was designed to do exactly what you want
to do when you're inserting a mathematical equation
constructed with some equation editing tool as an
inline object in your text. When you're

Thanks for all of the information. Here's a quick summary of what I have
learned both on and off-list:
1.) Esc m p - Escape math position. We inherited this function from its
original purpose for equations in a Framemaker document
Back in Dec. 2004, I brought this topic up. Doug B. sent me a DLL
(ShrinkWrapAsIs.dll). This allows you to use the Esc m p command, but
the anchored frame will stay as it was originally set.
I won't redistribute the DLL without permission, but I've copied Doug at
the email I had for him from
Hi All,
I'm working with a Frame 7.2 document that is conditioned to produce two
different manuals for two different (but similar) products. The last
book file contains several schematics that are conditioned for one or
the other product. Upon turning off the conditions for one product,
LOL
Someone else provided me with the DLL (I forget whom) so I don't have
a problem with anyone distributing it.
It works great...I love it.

When I taught this shortcut in one of my FrameMaker classes, someone
suggested it stood for Make Perfect.
I've always liked that and it makes the shortcut easier to remember.
