Question

formats being lost after saving

I have certain formats that are being lost after I save a file. More specifically, I have checkboxes that are one size, I save, exit, open it back up, and they're a different size. I can't get them to stay constant. It's an element imported from an EDD; should I import the EDD again to see if that works?

Hi! I don't know about checkboxes specifically, but it sounds like the behavior that would happen if the template for your structured application contains a different format for your checkbox. To fix it you'd need to find the template, open it and change the format there, save it. Then your main doc should just open with the right format.

I'm not sure what's causing that behavior, but you'll want to post this in the structured Fm forum, where you'll likely get more traction.

**Offhand, I'd say you should look at the structured application used for the file.
