FM 10 structapps file in user folder not synchronized?

[Yves Barbion]

I think it's just you, Wim. ;-)

I've just done the following:

1. StructureTools > Edit Application Defintions.
2. Change the file name of the DITA-FMx topic template.
3. Save but not read the structapp.fm (in my user folder), quit and restart
frameMaker.
4. Open a DITA topic: template not found, which means that the
structapps.fmin my user folder has been read when I restarted Fm.

But I don't like the idea of having multiple structapps.fm. It makes it more
difficult to manage all your struct apps. It would have been nicer if Fm
would have had this option as a preference.

Cheers
