I've seen FM do this when it finds the search phrase and you make a change in the document. I guess FM is just making sure! Yep, it's frustrating. Regards, Dimi Dimi Everette, Sr. Technical Writer, Video Information Design 7700 W Parmer Lane, Bldg C, Suite 100, Austin, TX 78729 | t:

This thing is driving me crazy...I'll be working in my Frame doc and suddenly the window shrinks down to about one inch by three inches! I thought it had something to do with my cursor hitting the edges of the monitor (especially the right side), but I've made sure the FM window opens on the

RE: FM 10 Tab Scrolling Arrows Disappeared

Hi Nancy, I noticed the same thing with my books. It seems that FM10 gives you only a double-arrow to the right of the last tab you see--click the arrows to see a list of open files. It's somewhat less helpful than how we used to be able to scroll back and forth, but it's the only solution

RE: I can PDF individual files in book, but NOT the whole book

I can't quite remember about previous versions of FM, but in v10, using File Save Book As and selecting a book type of PDF works perfectly. You do have to be sure you've clicked the book window rather than one of the files in the book. Regards, Dimi Dimi Everette, Sr. Technical Writer, Video
