FrameMaker 9.0.1 Update Now Available ... Come and Get It!

[Yves Barbion]

Hi Michael

See my comments below (>>>>>>>>>).

Sigh! I had hoped that "never change a working feature" had been the motto,
but apparently, it wasn't. I miss the good old FM 7 UI already. Some people
may find it ugly, outdated and not Adobe-like at all, but at least it
worked.

Looking forward to 9.0.2 soon. ;-)

Cheers

Yves

sorted correctly again (as in FM 7.2). Great!

>>>>>>>>>  Yep, more or less the same behavior in the English UI:

   - Commands popup works in the Table Designer
   - Commands popup in the Paragraph Designer only works after I had
   switched between one of the "tabs" (now buttons with some strange icons, I
   wished Adobe had kept the tabs with text on it)
   - Commands popup does not work in the Character Designer
