Dear Russ & Framers,<br>
<br>
I tried MIF washing, and book updating, all to no avail.<br>
I suspect it's a nasty bug, but one that only a few people will
experience.<br>

Simon,
A book structure representation is typically unreliable until after a
book update. Did you try a book update after adding files?
Also, related to the previous comment, you should avoid trying to move
documents around by moving their root elements in the book structure
tree. You should use the book window, then use a book update to
automatically refresh the structure tree.
Russ

Subject: Adding structured files into a book yields the wrong order in
the structure
Message-ID: <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:51F666CD.3040509@m-ais.com"><51F666CD.3040509@m-ais.com></a>

Dear Framers,
This is a resend of my previous message - as I suspect the FrameUsers
list doesn't allow for attachments - such as graphics - to be sent.
I've been having a problem with adding FrameMaker structured documents
into a structured book, and I wonder if any of you guys have experienced
the same or similar effect.
FWIW, I'm using FrameMaker 10, running on Windows7 - both with the
latest patches installed.
The files are organised in sub-section documents, such as ENR_3_3_en.fm
being the ENR 3.3 document, and sub-sub-section documents having
additional numbering, such as: ENR_3_3_1_en.fm
If I select a range of documents in an explorer window, and drag the
documents inside the book file, I appear to be able to get the whole
structure of the document messed up.
I dragged the files to be after the ENR_3_3_en.fm document, and before
the ENR_3_4_en.fm document. The book file appears to have the documents
in the correct order ENR_3_3_en.fm, followed by ENR_3_3_1_en.fm,
ENR_3_3_2_en.fm, ENR_3_3_3_en.fm, etc. but the structure view shows that
they are located /after/ the ENR_3_5_en.fm document!
The effect of adding these documents gets even stranger when I noticed
that the ENR_3_4_en.fm, ENR_3_5_en.fm, and ENR_3_6_en.fm - which /were/
in the correct order /before /the drag-drop function, are somehow
reversed.
If I try rearranging some of the files in the structure view window, I
have seen FrameMaker crash a few times.
I managed to add the files in the correct order by:
a. move the insertion pointer in the structure view
b. select the FrameMaker Add > Files... menu item
c. In the "Add Files to book" dialog, with the "details" being shown:
reserve the Name sort order in the Windows dialog, so it shows Z -
A ordering
d. select the second file in the reversed order [e.g. the "y" file]
e. shift-select the last file in the reversed order [e.g. the "a" file]
f. control-select the first file in the reversed order [e.g. the "z"
file]
... but even with this, I found that FrameMaker added the files into the
book 2 elements /after/ where I had moved the insertion pointer.
Has anyone else observed these behaviours before?
