MstrPg-Use question using RefPg-Table in Structured FrameMaker - 7.2
Framers, Dell - 490 WorkStation , Mem-4G (3.2 useable), Dual Monitors, Dual 80G hard Drives w/one 1T Western Digital (for backup) DSL for data communications (sure beats USPS, FedEx 'n UPS) Win OpSys XP Pro - Serv Pk 3 Fully patched FrameMaker 7.2 - Fully Patched My tables have a Table "columns" attribute that (with a Reference-Page table) will control a table-specified MasterPage based on column quantity. My tables have column-quantities from 3-6 and a 2nd group from 10-14. The 3-6 col. group needs to be on 2-col pages and the 10-14 group on a 1-col (full) page I do have 4-different Masters . . . named . . . 2cRT, 2cLft, 1cRt and 1cLft which do quite well when applied manually, a one or a few pages at a time. The Section pg count varies from 30pp - 250pp with 0-2 images on full-width pages and 1-6 images on 2-col pages. The Section usually begins in full width (mode) and will alternate 1-col to 2-col three to twelve times per Section. You can see . . . they can get quite busy and . . . what I want is . . . for the Table-Columns attribute to control pagination MasterPgs upon the input of the SGML-data file. Two questions . . . 1. Is this RefPg "Element-Attribute" Table>MasterPg a real, working, solution? 2. Where can I find written instruct's that offers a "great" instructional view of How it works and How to make it work? 3. In the "columns" attribute value is the column-count(TEXTnumber) . . . In the RefPg Table - in the attribute value column . . . Can I enter <8 and cause the 2-col. Master to be used and . . . enter >8 to cause the full/p-1-col Master to be used??? 4. or do I need to spec each col. quantity separately??? Thanks for reading this and double Thanks for answering! best to all, dick doll 317.539.4857 sgmlindy at tds.net
