FrameMaker's irritating habit of jumping pages

[DeFlorio, Dominick]

The problem still exists in 7.2...and is extremely annoying when working
with large documents containing many graphics.  It occurs when your
cursor is at some point earlier in the book and you scroll through the
document past a large graphic.  When the graphic finally loads, Frame
back-scrolls to the original cursor point.  I assume this has something
to do with loading the graphic into memory because the behavior does not
occur at the same point twice.  To get around it, you must continually
click at the currently displayed point.  Clicking as you scroll
sometimes doesn't work if the you happen to click while paging through a
graphic.

The symptom sounds like the old "runaround graphics" bug from FrameMaker
5.5.6. But I thought that they fixed that in FM6.

My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

Framers... FrameMaker 6 has recently developed an irritating habit. When
a page that contains an imported graphic is displayed, FrameMaker jumps
backwards for several pages immediately after the imported graphic is
first displayed.

Does anyone know why this should happen, and how I can prevent it? I am
not sure whether it happens with all documents, but it certainly happens
with all documents in a specific book.
