The user of FrameMaker start question

I have almost zero experience with Framemaker.  During my days of thesis, I used framemaker for a short time and returned to the latex!  Finally, 10 years, I've been using Microsoft Word.

Now, after I've finished about 30% of the book, my Publisher is pushing me to move to Framemaker.  (I have concluded that this thing of Framemaker is the BEST software EVER WRITTEN or my Publisher really really hate Microsoft Word!)  :-):-))

As everyone here has more experience with Framemaker, I ask for advice on the following:

I have about 10 chapters in a book of engineering graduate with a large number of visio diagrams, tables and a large NUMBER of equations.  Equations were created using Microsoft Word 2007 Equation Editor.

I first have to import the given in a book in framemaker and then continue to write in Framemaker.  I do not have the luxury to learn first of all the software for several hours and then start using it.  I'm looking for so for pointers on a quick way to get productive with it.

Here are my specific questions:

1. What is the best way to reliably import the current word document in a framemaker book?  (Currently, it's a single word file and is one of the reasons to move to Framemaker to be able to deal with the separate files for each chapter.  I don't mind create a separate for each chapter in Word file - if it comes to that.)

2. What is the best place to learn more about how to perform the task described in the previous question?

3. What is a good reference - either electronic or the dead - trees version I need once I start using Framemaker?  The software I have is Framemaker 9.0, and it seems to be still too recent for books.  But it is pretty close to Framemaker 8 can I go out with one more book for my current needs?

4. how import Visio diagrams works with Framemaker, moving forward?

If you have any other useful suggestions, I welcome them also.

Thanks for your time.

See you soon; "best,

He long ago, in a universe of FrameMaker far away, square1.nl used to
advertise a product or service or both who converted various
graphics to editable FM chart. Give them a try.

In addition, there used to be a conversion utility that converted from latex
to the mif or vice versa all or maybe both. I don't know if he
would help you to find a way to convert, create new or recreate your
Word equations to latex, then to the FM band; I don't know if the utility works
for equations. I'm not sure if this is a FM-unix utility only, or if
There is a version of Windows. Just a wild stab here.

FM9 interface offers radically different appearances than any
FM sooner, you may know, but many frequently used features and
the controls are always accessible through the menus of the FM, even if some call it
the new interface elements, and some call it the 'old'. Adobe has a
Webcast of the FM 9 interface in use free online; Maybe a list any
Member can give the link. It is not only educational about the user interface,
but also as to its use in a certain number of common situations.

IMO, anyone who is comfortable in latex should be able to manage in FM,
especially with some experience recovered memory and resources of
This and other lists of FM.

Good luck! Stay in touch with assistance list. It is always
educational for me (and probably many others, too) all what
interesting and creative, corners that you can paint yourself in what
convert to or from FM.

Kind regards

  • How to make a slide to wait until the user has answered a question correctly, even after activation of a smartshape?

    Background:

    I created a questionnaire in which the user must answer each question correctly before to proceed to the next slide. That's what I did:


    • Set preferences Settings > required > respond to everything - the user must answer each question to continue
    • Set the number of attempts at the level of the question to infinity
    • Made the Next invisible button and disabled the PlayBar

    In this way, the user can proceed to the next slide in the issue with the submission process - and, since attempts are endless, this means that after having answered the question correctly.

    Current objective:

    I want the user to be able to click on a prompt for a hint. To configure this, I did the following:

    • Created a smartshape titled 'click_for_hint' to display the text that says: "click here for a tip.
    • Created a smartshape labelled 'hint' text display
    • Show "hint" success value "click_for_hint".

    Now, when the user clicks on the text that says: "Click here for a hint," the suspicion appears. So it works - great! However, once the indicator is activated, I would like to for the user to continue endless attempts until respondent correctly to the question... and then only after answering correctly, proceed to the next slide.

    The problem:

    If the user has submitted one or more wrong answers, and then activates the indicator, the slide just waiting until the user has answered the question correctly. Instead, it will be set in playing, proceeding to the next slide. I tried the smartshape 'hint' to take a break on the success of adjustment, but it does not work.

    Is there a way to make the slide to wait until the answer to the question correctly before moving on to the next slide, even after the indicator has been activated?

    Are you aware that your required parameter can cause problems, the blocking of the user? It is also completely useless because you have unlimited attempts at the level of the issue and hid the next button (hope, you don't need review, otherwise, I would recommend not to hide this button but slide it under the Clear key: the Question slides in Captivate - Captivate blog)

    The index problem is related to the fact that a simple gesture going out of reading. I would like to see the timeline of the slide, to compare the points of suspension form and the question slide button. And maybe this blog can also clarify difference between simple/advanced: Why choose Standard Simple action?-Captivate blog

    Regarding the buttons on question slides form: buttons on slides of Question/Score of Captivate 6?-Captivate blog

  • Satellite 5100 503: change the HARD drive and start questions

    My hard drive in my Satellite 5100 broke down and I want to change it.

    According to various posts in the forum, it is not possible to start the 5100 from a CD when there is a (new) hard drive in the machine. And the only way to change the boot sequence is via Windows - what does more - there is no other way to change the settings of the BIOS within Windows.

    I looked in the manual - I find no mention after pressing F12 C or any other combination to change the boot sequence (of course I tried yet without result). The only thing I found possible is to press ESC + F1 for BIOS settings default _restore_. And turning the power on by pressing on the left of the space bar gives me the opportunity to Flash a new BIOS.

    Is this really so? Because that would mean I'm stuck. And in this case I will just save the money for the new hard drive and throw my laptop... (and probably by another brand next time - but I sincerely hope that is not so much...)

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards
    Thomas

    Nice. ;)
    To my knowledge, it was always possible to boot from the CD. Also, after replacing the HARD drive

  • Prompts the user to some responses in a dialog box

    Hi all

    I want to create a dialog box containing a few questions requiring a response from the user. I tried to use the app.response () method, but it can show a question and an entry field (for the user to answer the question) at a time.

    Using this method, if I have 10 questions requiring a response from the user, I have to use this method of app.response () ten times respectively.

    I could create a dialog box that can show several questions and inside input fields?

    If the user could answered all questions to the dialog window only one.

    My second question, the input field in the dialog box that showed using the method app.response () is just a regular text box field. I could create a dialog box to get user input that can use the drop-down list field as entry field, instead of textbox field?

    Any help is appreciated

    Thank you.

    Kind regards

    Rocky

    The 'app.alert ()' method can recover a 'yes', 'No', 'OK' or 'cancel the answer.

    The "app.response ()" method can retrieve a text string.

    The "app.popupMenu ()" and "app.popupMenuEx ()" may return a selected item.

    The "app.execDialog ()" method can collect any number of data items in the text fields, check boxes, drop-down list, or buttons.

  • The user cannot start PS CC

    PC Info:

    Win7

    joints to a domain

    UAC = off

    This particular user tries to start PSCC, the graph appears showing its loading. The startup script that runs through the graph allows you to "initialize", stops, and then a pop up says that you cannot start the program.

    This is where it gets strange; I or anyone else in the it Department can the PC remotely via RDP and start PSCC perfectly.

    the user has no PSerrorlog.txt file for me to look under the path "C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Adobe Photoshop CC Settings\"

    cut out the "Adobe Photoshop CC Settings" folder and restart PSCC to generate a new, it does not solve the problem, nor the fact give me a PSerrorlog.txt file to analyze.

    Any help is appreciated, this is a strange question.

    My apologies if this is in the wrong community (MODS feel free to go to the community concerned, if necessary)

    Sniffer.exe triggers warnings or sometimes prevent the Ps for opening, to avoid crushing GPU (in case of corrupted driver)

    Move this file to the folder program files is just ignore these warnings.

    Thus, it is considered as a workaround.
