How to change FM8 default setting for Anchored Frame?

Hello,

I would like to change the default settings in FrameMaker 8 for Anchored Frame.

Currently, when I import an .ai file into FrameMaker 8, I have to change the Anchored Frame default setting from "Below Current Line" to "At Insertion Point".

Is there a way to make "At Insertion Point" the default option in FrameMaker 8 (.e.g *.ini file)?

Thanks,

-J

    Hello again,

    Okay, I took the plunge (followed the instructions) and put the ShrinkWrapAsIs.dll in the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker8\fminit\Plugins

    But, it did not work on my version of FrameMaker 8 (in Structured FM8).

    Thanks again for the ideas.

    Thanks guys! I appreciate the solutions.

    Art, do you know if ShrinkWrapAsIs.dll works with FM8?

    Regards,

    As Thomas points out, Bruce Foster's ImpGraph.dll is a good option. You may also want to Google for and download ShrinkWrapAsIs.dll which works differently but may be useful to you.

    By default this is not possible, but if you use this plugin:

    you can obtain what you want.
