FrameMaker 11 "Add ons" - also for earlier versions!

[rebecca officer]

Echoing Scott's enthusiasm, I was delighted to see there's a version for
FM10 too. Great!
 
Cheers

Klaus...

These are some wonderful resources that you've provided to the FM
community! I'm particularly interested in the maker.ini and
customization documentation. I'm pretty sure that Adobe is looking to
improve their docs .. they should just pay you for this information and
include it as theirs. I'm also very impressed with the work you've done
on the UI enhancements .. wonderful toolbar and pallete work!

Framers ..

Take a few minutes and look over this information that Klaus has
provided. Even if you're not on FM11, you'll find a wealth of
information on his website for your FM version.

Cheers!

Framers,


I'm not involded with the acclaimed new featues in the XML and DITA
area - I'm still on the unstructured route (and my customers just as
well). That gave me time to ride other "hobby horses" during the
beta-test:
 
1 Enhanced Tool Bar ( http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker66.html ) for
FM-11 : Items 2, 3, 5, 6 are also included here. 
2 Modified Equation Palette ( http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker65.html )
: 25% larger, clearer display by use of fonts
3 Enhanced Vertical Toolbar ( http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker67.html )
: two rather than four levels; new functions in the upper part.
  The vertical toolbar fits nicely into the margin area of facing pages
thus reducing mouse
  miles on a large screen.
4 Entries in maker.ini ( http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker68.html ) : a
list of all the items since FM-3 with explanations. Of course some
  mysteries could not be resolved...
5 Customising FrameMaker (
http://www.daube.ch/docu/files/etb-customising-fm.pdf ) : Based on the
document provided lastly for FM-7 I've documented the
  procedures for  FM-11. Also includes maker.ini entries relevant for
FM-11. 
6 FrameMaker Commands (
http://www.daube.ch/docu/files/etb-fm11-commands.pdf ) : A list of all
commandi in FM-11 created with itl script.


If Adobe does not improve some pathetic dialogues (e.g. Insert Table),
I'll probably throw myself into even more work. Well, time for such
things to do may have only retired and passionate people like me.
