Question

FM 10: images aligned to the left revert to center position after save,close,reopen

I'm using structured FM10 in TCS3 on Windows XP.

We upgraded from TCS1 FM8 to the current version and are having a problem with our images.  All of our window images are constructed within a table. So we have table > tgroup and then the image within the table. The image is center aligned. I select the anchored frame that contains the image and select left alignment on the Anchored Frame pod. After saving, closing, and reopening, the image reverts to its center alignment.

This worked just fine in FM8.  What could have changed?

Thanks in advance.

Is this with standard unstructured FM files or with DITA? I believe that you were working with DITA files, no?

Yes, we're working with DITA (how nice of you to remember).

Hmm .. I tried putting an image in a table, and changing the alignment .. it seems to stick for me when reopened.

When you set the alignment in the Anchored Frame dialog is it in turn setting the @align attribute on the image element? What happens if you set the @align attribute to "left" manually (by editing the attribute).

I assume that you've inserted an image element within the entry element (table cell) .. yes?

Tell me more about the structure of this table .. as far as I can tell, this should be working.
