Question

Some Change bars cannot be removed (Frame Maker 11)

I am using Frame Maker 11 in authoring mode and have activated automatic change bars. When finalizing the document, I would like to remove the change bars one by one, manually. Unfotunately, some change bars are impossible to remove. When marking the word(s), there seems to be no change bar, but when the text symbol is included, the check box for change bar in "Character designer" is marked. Not with a check mark, but just a colour. By unchecking the box and clicking "Apply", I would expect the change bar to be removed, and it normally is, but in some cases, the change bar remains.

Any solution to this problem?

Best regards,

Lars Sundvall

Change bars can be turned on at both the Character and Paragraph level (see the MIF Reference for specifics). A paragraph level change bar cannot be removed by a character format. Change bars can also be specified in a format change list in a structured document's EDD.

I see. I did turn on automatic change bars, but when removing them manually, most of the change bars were removed (turned off), on character level, but only in some cases they remained visible (turned on).

The solution I got from a co-worker, was that after turning off automatic change bars, I pushed enter to get a new line. Now, the change bars were turned off.
