FrameMaker 10 Autonumber Bug

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Framers,

Joy Kocar discovered a bug in FrameMaker 10 and I have confirmed it. When
your autonumber is set to End of Paragraph and the paragraph is
right-aligned, the autonumber disappears. It works correctly in FrameMaker 9
and below. Here is how to duplicate the issue so you can see it:

1) Open a new, untitled document.

2) Click in the first paragraph and bring up the Paragraph Designer.

3) Go to the Autonumber panel, add the <$chapnum> building block to the
Autonumber Format field, set the Position to End of Paragraph, and click
Apply. You will see a number 1 at the end of the paragraph.

4) Go to the Basic panel of the Paragraph Designer, choose Alignment: Right
and click Apply. The number 1 will disappear.

If you try this in earlier versions of FrameMaker, the number stays.
