Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

To me that's just making extra work for myself and anyone else who ever works on the project. In the bad old days, you couldn't put a whole book in a single .fm file because you'd run out of memory or disk space. On Tue, Jan 7, 2020 at 2:55 PM wrote: > > I did mention that my numbering was for

Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

I did mention that my numbering was for books (meaning Frame books), since that is where chapnum works. Naturally, I would approach an all-chapters in one document differently than a multi-chapter/document job, but I reserve the all-in-one doc files for smaller documents. As they say, to each

Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

Winfried,     I agree with you about avoiding chapnum, etc. You are correct that using counters is more flexible because it allows multiple chapters, sections, or volumes to appear either in separate documents or grouped into one. Furthermore, I find using counters easier to maintain since

Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

I'm sure you know that an all-in-one numbering scheme can be de-mystified by documenting it on a reference page. I'm also sure you've tried it. So, have you found any drawbacks to this approach, other than the problem of getting other users to refer to the reference page? Not implying there's

Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

Just to clarify when I said "unnecessary" in Frame--I meant for MY workflow experience. I like all my numbering schemes to be labeled independent of each other--it keeps the code simpler for each style and it makes it easier to add deeper levels to each style group. I label my tables and figures

Re: [Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

I dumped the chapnum approach around 15 years ago since I found that with FrameMaker 7 was no longer any need to worry about running out of memory. In my later FM projects I put all the chapters in a single .fm file. ___ This message is from the Framers

[Framers] FM2019 Volume and Chapter Numbering

My method/two cents... You can put the chapters in a book as usual. You can put those books in a master book to control the volume numbers--or if you just have a few volumes you can set volume number manually in each book. You can include the volume number where ever you want--such as x-refs,

Re: Structured: about containers, other matter and chapter numbering

I can't give advice on structured FrameMaker, but an easy way to make the correct title appear on the running header of an unstructured book is to use numbering properties. I assume the same applies to structured books. 1. In the files' appropriate master pages, insert the $volnum variable
