  Finally, does anyone with FM use two screens? I am unhappy with all
  these boxes and pods in FM9 and would like them all on a second screen

I've got FM 9 running with three monitors. Multiple monitors are great!
I tend to keep a file manager and web browser up on the left and my main
work in the center. The righthand monitor is a high-end color correction
monitor.
I usually only fire it up when I'm also working on graphics, but it also
comes in so handy for those times that I really need a lot of windows
open.
With FM, you can put the various panels/pods on one (or more) of the
peripheral monitors, and keep your central screen free to display only
the document you are working on. You can even have multiple FM documents
open on multiple monitors.

Can we change the track text edit marker colours in FM8?

[Heidi Bailey]

Hi,

Having just discovered the useful track edit tool, I wonder if it is
possible to change the colour/underline that the edited text is given?

For example, I'd like to change the marker for inserted text from forest
green to a brighter colour.

I can't find anything in the FM8 user guide, nor on the internet. If
anyone knows of a backdoor way to do this, please let me know!

Thanks,

RE: Can we change the track text edit marker colours in FM8?

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Heidi,

The colour and format for deleted/inserted text is actually determined by a
couple of hidden condition formats. You can see this if you click in the
text and look in the status area at the lower left corner of the document
window. You can use FrameScript to change these properties for the current
session, but the properties don't stick after you close and reopen the
document. A solution would be a FrameScript event script that would make the
changes automatically whenever you open a document. If you are interested in
a solution like this, please contact me off list. Thank you very much.

RE: [Free Framers] Search produces five identical listings

[Reid Gray]

Hi Nancy,
 
Sorry this is a week off. 
 
You have identified one of the common problems of not classic problems with 
searching --duplicates.  Often times duplicates are a side effect to the 
automatic indexing process where the same source text already has hyperlinks 
from multiple places in the help project, website, or body of content you are 
feeding. 
 
So if the anchor tag looks like this: 
a href=ports.htmlreserved TCP port range/a
 
...and this complete anchor tag appears 2 or more times with the same anchor 
text (in blue for this explanation), and the end-user executes a keyword search 
on TCP port, port range, or something relevant, the example duplicate 
results you provided is analog to the results the user gets!  
 
Google and the rest do a 'link cardinality' trick where they check if the same 
achor text actually points to the same place on the same page so they can pick 
one of the results to be listed in the top ten or so hits you get back.  It is 
not a tough thing to script this if somebody at your site is handy with python, 
java, or javascript, or whatever web application language is handy or makes 
sense. It is simple string comparison operations. The sequence is this:
 
Query results come back and are fed to your dedup script --  Dedup script 
searches for links that are the same.  If link is the same and anchor text is 
the same, delete the result record, repeat.  -- de-duplicated query results 
are passed to the user.
 
Just ensure that whoever writes the script gives you a switch to turn it on or 
off so you can check the query results in both cases to see if it is working to 
your satisfaction.
 
Cheers,

Re: Can we change the track text edit marker colours in FM8?

[Les Smalley]

I am still at FM 7.2, but I will guess that FM 8 (and 9) use the same mechanism 
for Track Changes.   These are FM's Conditional Text tags, and you can edit the 
color and/or lining style via the Special  Conditional Text dialog.

Click to highlight a tag name, and then the Edit Condition Tag button.  
Change the properties as desired.  You can even open the basic template(s) and 
make these changes so that future files will include your preferences.

Superscript Frame to PDF issue

[theboggette]

Greetings.
 
I have a set of documents that have superscript characters in the Heading1 
levels.  When I convert to PDF, any Heading that has a superscript is not a 
link in the TOC of the PDF.  The Heading shows up in the TOC, but you can't 
click on it to go to that page.
 
I'm not sure if my settings are wrong in Frame, PDF, or what.  I'm using Frame 
8 and Acrobat Professional 8 on Windows.
 
Thoughts?

The hypertext marker inserted at the beginning of the TOC paragraphs 
creates a link, but the link area is limited by the change in character 
properties in the TOC entries (whether superscript, subscript or font 
changes) limits the active area. [see some examples at 
http://www.microtype.com/Hmmms.html#0305 ]

If character formats in the TOC cannot be avoided (either retrieved from 
source paragraphs or required by design), I recommend using FrameScript to 
duplicate the hypertext marker present at the beginning of each TOC entry 
for each distinct character format area within that entry (independently of 
whether this property change comes from the TOC specification on the 
Reference page or from the source TOC item).
Such a script can also be extended to deal with other TOC problems.

Re: Superscript Frame to PDF issue

[William Abernathy]

As Shlomo points out, this is a known characteristic of FrameMaker, and you 
can't change it without using a Framescript-based solution. If you need a quick 
kludge to get you out of this production cycle, and you're going to PDF output 
only, you can work around this by selecting the Link tool in Acrobat and 
manually stretching the affected links across the TOC entry. Obviously, this is 
not something to adopt as a long-term fix, but it can get you out of the lurch 
if they need it this week.

[Free Framers] Search produces five identical listings

Sorry this is a week off. 

You have identified one of the common problems of not classic problems with 
searching --duplicates.  Often times duplicates are a side effect to the 
automatic indexing process where the same source text already has hyperlinks 
from multiple places in the help project, website, or body of content you are 
feeding. 

So if the anchor tag looks like this: 
reserved TCP port range

...and this complete anchor tag appears 2 or more times with the same anchor 
text (in blue for this explanation), and the end-user executes a keyword search 
on "TCP port," "port range," or something relevant, the example duplicate 
results you provided is analog to the results the user gets!  

Google and the rest do a 'link cardinality' trick where they check if the same 
achor text actually points to the same place on the same page so they can pick 
one of the results to be listed in the top ten or so hits you get back.  It is 
not a tough thing to script this if somebody at your site is handy with python, 
java, or javascript, or whatever web application language is handy or makes 
sense. It is simple string comparison operations. The sequence is this:

Query results come back and are fed to your dedup script -->  Dedup script
