Unresolved xrefs when table is sorted

Hi Framers, FrameMaker (6, 7.x, 8.0) has the following bug: If you've got a cross-reference to a paragraph in a table, and you sort the table, the cross-reference markers in the table are removed, so you get unresolved cross-references. Any workarounds, patches or solutions here? -- Yves

Drag and drop by reference

Hi Framers, is there a way to take a graphic in Windows Explorer, drop it onto a page in FrameMaker and get this graphic imported by reference (not copied into document, as it is now)? Kind regards -- Yves ___ You are currently subscribed to

problem install framemaker 8 trial version

I'm attempting to download and install the free trial version of Framemaker 8 from the Adobe website. It downloads fine but during the install process I am asked for a serial number. I don't have one since this is a trial version. The Adobe support person I contacted first suggested

Re: problem install framemaker 8 trial version

I ran into the same problem (on two different computers) with the GoLive 9 trial. I have also noted the same problem recently with a couple other Adobe applications. I suspect (yet cannot prove) the problem happens with Adobe's new serial number dialog box where you select to add a serial

Re: problem install framemaker 8 trial version

You definitely don't need to uninstall FM7 to install the FM8 trial. In the dialog that asks for the serial number *should* be an option to choose the 30 Day Trial which doesn't need a serial number. It's right below the serial number fields .. run it again and see if you missed it. ...scott

RE: Keyboard shortcuts stop working

Hi Rick, I have had the same thing happen, but also in other apps. The keyboard gets remapped to another language, usually Spanish. I turned off the language settings in the control panel and have not had it happen since. The keyboard shortcut to switch languages was set to Left Alt Shift

Re: problem install framemaker 8 trial version

I can't speak definitively to the problem with running in trial mode. Regarding what's compatible - you can keep multiple _different_ releases of FM installed without conflicts. For example, FM 4, 5, 5.56, 6.x, and 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, and 8.0, are sufficiently different to work independently. Each

Fixed my Problem

I finally fixed my problem. I can build help files again! (whew! I was starting to sweat bullets) Here is what I did: 1. Reinstalled ePub (don't know if that helped but what the hell) 2. Fixed the corrupt graphics (ePub cannot manage images grouped together with Frame callouts. I created the

Using FrameScript to change footer text

I'm running FrameMaker 7.0 and FrameScript. I need to change the footer text from: BrandX Reference Guide - Volume VII - Functions to BrandX Reference Guide - Functions. Most books contain many, many files. Editing the Master Pages by hand is a bear. Is there a scriptable method?...thanks.

RE: Using FrameScript to change footer text

One aspect of well-designed templates is that the headers and footers should be identical (or I should say identically constructed, meaning built from the same system variables even if those variables will have different values in different chapters) across all or most of the files in a book. If
