Hello list,
I'm struggling a bit here with conditionals, specifically text containing
cross-references. The original unstructured book is 40 chapters and 14
appendices with all the other usual front and back matter. It is in
distribution as a PDF. Naturally it has a ton of cross-references a
Best practice is to use a version control system such as Subversion.
Gives you the performance of local files, all the advantages of
network sharing, plus additional advantages.

Ever since moving to Win 7 and Frame 11, the appearance of my tabs is
really ugly. For example:

Not sure if you can tell from this, but the fonts are highlighted and
shadowed in a strange way. Does anyone know if this is a Frame or a Window
You can play around a bit with shading in the FM prefs, but it's pretty limited.

Hi Joel
I'm seeing this too (Frame 11, Windows XP), so it must be a Frame "feature".
Very ugly indeed.
I prefer the old Frame 9 tabs, without the shadow, much clearer:
@Shmuel: changing the monitor preferences doesn't help in my case.

If the Pagination option for RH9 doesn't say Pagination (Split topic at this
level), or something close to that, you'll want to update to the latest patch
for RH. That patch helps many TCS linking issues

Hi group
Is there a way to expand ALL elements in the Document view?
This topic in the FM11 Help just tells me that it is possible, but it
doesn't tell me HOW:
