Conditionalizing screens shots in FrameMaker 9.0/ePublisherPro

[Art Campbell]

It's pretty easy, but I'd use an Anchor paragraph tag that doesn't contain
text. Its only purpose is to provide a spot outside text paragraphs to hang
an anchored frame or table.
Once these are in place, you can easily conditionalize the para tag and the
only effect is to hide the anchored frame (or table).
I usually set mine to a font size of 2 pt so they don't take up much room,
and I also usually make them red and use a special margin so they stand out
on screen.
