Hi Helping Hands,
Ok. now I have to ask.
I have a huge FM7.0 (Windows XP) manual with 5 guides. Every guide has Thumtabs for each chapter out of which only one guide's thumbtabs are working properly. I have tried to figure out the mess, for so long. After a long long search I could unfold the treasure-secret of markers Header/Footer $1 and Header/Footer $2. Ok.
Now the problem is this. Each thumbtab is an image of a globe in which appear the chapter number. The marker contains only the chapter number but I am not at all able to figure out how the globe is moving up and down as the chapter number progresses.
Some points that I could figure out:
* Each chapter start has $header_footer1 set to the chapter no. (hard coded)
* the thumbtab image in the master pages remain in the same position for every chapter
(Still the tabs move when seen in body pages )
* the thumbtab image also holds a place (text frame?) for Runnung H/F4.
Do I have to provide any more details?
Please help.
Thanks
Radha
