Re: [Framers] Anyone using OneDrive as a repository?

2016-03-10 Thread Peter Gold

I think DropBox has a "professional" or "business" option. Not sure if it
would work for check-in/out type of use.

That works only with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files.

For smooth collaboration, you really want a lock option on the server
side, like you get with Subversion and every other revision control
system I've used except Git.

Ah - that was it. That's the first time that's happened to me in the 
 years that I've been using Frame. Many thanks to both Rick and 
Penelope who made the suggestion.

Thanks much,

Hi

Frame 8.0p277
Windows 8.1 (dang its eyes anyway...)

I tried a Find and Replace thing, and now I have a problem.

I did a Find  and Replace . It was successful.

Now if I try to use that dialog again, even for a simple Find Text, I get an
error: "Select the text in which you want to find and change, and try again."

If I Select All and attempt the Find, then it works. I so don't want to do all 
that every time I need to find something in the document.

Even more sadly, the autobackup copy was saved after this broke. And dang 
Windows 8.1 because if I still had Win7, a shadow copy likely would have 
existed to fix it.

Help!

Re: [Framers] Anyone using OneDrive as a repository?

2016-03-10 Thread Robert Lauriston

StarTeam is a revision control system. Microsoft's counterpart is Team
Foundation Server, which is fine if you're already paying for it
through a MSDN subscription or whatever. Subversion (SVN) is probably
the most popular alternative.

OneDrive is MS's answer to Google Drive and Dropbox. I don't think any
of those is a good choice as a repository for shared files when you
want to make sure only one person edits them at a time. Even as a
single user I've run into file locking conflicts that were a pain to
resolve.

[Framers] Anyone using OneDrive as a repository?

2016-03-10 Thread Michael Norton

Anyone using Microsoft OneDrive as a repository for Frame, RoboHelp, Word, 
graphics, and PDF documentation files?

Looks like I've been given the task of moving from our current repository 
(StarTeam) to something else, preferably OneDrive. I'm mainly using StarTeam as 
a backup location, so no content management capabilities are needed. Simple 
check in/check out for one to two writers should suffice. I'm not familiar with 
OneDrive and maybe some of you are, any suggestions or critiques would be 
welcome.

Thanks

Do the magic: Regular Expressions in FrameMaker 2015, by Marek 
Pawelec



Everybody stand back … I know regular expressions! And Marek 
Pawelec definitively does!



Check out our latest guest blog post about how to use 
‪#‎RegularExpressions in FrameMaker (2015 release) and leverage the power of 
‪‎"RegEx" to do find & replace magic that goes far beyond what you could do 
with wildcards.



In many practical examples, Marek guides you through the magic 
of Regular Expressions in FrameMaker (2015 release) and several reference 
tables come in handy.

Thumbs up, Marek. This is a post everyone should bookmark!
