Zoom Level Settings in FM 11

[Maxwell Hoffmann]

Robert,

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I will ensure that this is sent to the appropriate internal parties.

Regarding my intent in "it's impossible to please everyone," what I was referring to is that various feature requests and UI enhancements requested in this formats sometimes cancel each other out. Obviously, we can't please everyone.

It's impossible to displease anyone by fixing bugs, or by improving your QA.

There are a lot of serious UI bugs that were introduced in FM9 that from what I've heard still haven't been fixed in FM11. You may remember you asked me to send you a list of those bugs last year.
Here's another copy.

1. Document window size and position are not saved.

11. If I Alt-Tab to FrameMaker from another application, pressing Alt-Tab again takes me to another FrameMaker document window (if more than one document is open) instead of back to the other application.

I eventually gave up on rearranging FM10's windows and pods, which means I don't encounter most of those any more, but I'm probably 10-15% slower as a result.
