RE: Annoying FrameMaker Question
Stuart, Carla Thank you both for your suggestions (sorry if I missed anyone else!). It didn't look like Modified FrameMaker Utilities Carla suggested would work with my version of FrameMaker. At Stuart's suggestion, I tried ResourceHacker and within minutes managed to modify and test the dialog in question. Wow. What a powerful tool!

Annoying FrameMaker Question
Hi Folks, I am using FrameMaker 6.x and am very annoyed with the size of the Show/Hide Conditional Text window. It isn't wide enough to show the full names of my conditions, and doesn't appear to allow resizing. Does anyone know if: 1) There is a way to scroll the conditions in the Show and Hide columns sideways? Arrow keys don't work. 2) Or, if there's a way to resize the entire window. This is a long shot, but FrameMaker has a long history of surprising me with capabilities I assumed it did not have... Thanks in advance. -Michael PS: If you know if more recent versions of FrameMaker have this same behavior, I'd be delighted to hear. ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
RE: Annoying FrameMaker Question
This utility for FM7.x did resize many of the windows, including the conditional text window. I also liked the way it streamlined and removed some of the redundant information in the screens. http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker36.html Unfortunately, I don't think it will work on FM6.x, but you can try. -Carla - CONFIDENTIAL- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential, and may also be legally privileged.
