Question
consitently crash pasting text frame into graphic frame
Since upgrading to FrameMaker 2015, FrameMaker crashes when we paste a text frame into a graphic frame. I work with a team of more than 20 FrameMaker 13.0.2.433 users, and we're all getting this behavior. I have tested with a new FrameMaker document to confirm that the issue isn't our templates, styles, graphics, and so on. These are the steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Select File > New > Document. The New window appears.
- Select Portrait or Landscape. (I haven't tested Custom.) A new FrameMaker document appears.
- Select File > Import > File. The Import window appears.
- Choose a graphic and click Import. The Import Graphic Scaling window appears.
- Select an option and click Set. The graphic appears on the page.
- Type a return to move the cursor to the next line.
- Repeat steps 3–5 to import a second graphic.
- Save the document.
- Click the Place a Text Frame button on the Graphics Toolbar.
- Drag out a graphic frame on top of the first graphic. The Create New Text Frame window appears.
- Click Set.
- Double-click in the newly added text frame and then type "123."
- Click the Select Object button on the Graphics Toolbar.
- Select the graphic frame that's on top of the first graphic.
- Press CTRL+C to copy the text frame.
- Click the second graphic.
- Press CTRL+V to paste the text frame.
CRASH!
We work in an unstructured environment. We're all running Windows 7, but one colleague has tested on Windows 8 and gotten the same results. I have personally tested this behavior on multiple computers.
