Overrides - FM10

[Doris Pavlichek]

Hi all -

We're having some issues with overrides in FrameMaker 10. We've been 
using the new "Remove Overrides" option, and we thought we were having 
some success. But one of my writers removed all overrides in a document 
last night and left the document open on his desktop overnight (no 
reboots, locally-stored file). This morning he found that the elves had 
restored all the overrides for procSpaceAfter (a paragraph format that 
creates some white space after a procedure) and many other pgf formats.

In addition, if he tries to remove the override for procStepResult 
(which is an arrow in Zapfdingbats), it removes the UTF transform 
between dingbats and Helvetica (our default font). The only way to keep 
the arrow is to leave the override in place. We never had these issues 
with FM 7.x, which we just converted from a couple of months ago.

Anyone else having problems with overrides messing up UTF mapping or 
magically reappearing in a file? Seems this is not a very stable feature.
