Hi Sebin, thanks to Stefan Gentz https://forums.adobe.com/people/Stefan%20Gentz%20%5BAdobe%5D and the development-team this issue will be solved in update 2. They worked on it today (Sunday!!) to solve the problem. MANY THANKS TO THEM ALL. ... View more

Hi BarbBinder, as Stefan wrote The welcome screen is located here: <$FMHOME>\Adobe FrameMaker 2017\fminit\dws\resources\welcomeScreen\ In that folder there's a file "welcome.html". You can launch this with your standard browser to see if it's correct. If not, you simply can replace your students folder with yours. The only thing IE is needed for is to launch the links in the right part (watch webinars ..... learn) ... View more

Hi Sebin, what did you want to achieve with your script? Esp. with find_defined_list_attributes? I can imagine, that there's another way doing this. Perhaps as a workaround and to avoid this crash you yould use mif instead. ... View more

Hi sebinkur, I guess that it is caused by "$.writeln". $.writeln is slowing down a script while debugging very much. Also there are known problems with it. e.g. $.writeln(anynumber) isn't written, but with some text in it : $.writeln("No. :" + anynumber) it is written I suggest that you try to test it with something like this: count += 1 ; count1000 +=1 if (count1000 == 1000)    {     $.writeln("Count: " + count);      count1000 = 0;      } ...

Hi Russ, thanks for your advice. In my case, the document already is open and on top of all other documents or it is the only open document. But the palette-dialog overlaps it. I have a (palette-)script, that inserts words by pressing a button. I want that the user can continue writing without having to "aim"  with the mouse without closing the dialog. ... View more

Hi Markus, thanks a lot for your suggestions. None of them works. The only way seems to be fcode[0] = FCodes.FOCUS_INPUT_DOC; But there is absolutely no effect. So maybe it's a bug. All other things only cause flickering. ... View more

Hi Klaus, the danger using notifications is, that you only get error messages in console somtimes. And sometimes NOT. And it mostly ignores breakpoints when you are debugging. So if a script runs into an error, it may skip the rest of the code / function without any alert. And so it could happen, that your function SetDisplay hasn't been executed and app.Displaying = 0 stayed alive. So it may depend on where you called "SetDisplay". I'm just struggling with similar problems and the only way to trace the code is to use alerts and keep the console in mind. ... View more

Hi Klaus, my first and quick guess is: there's a registered script in the background that catches the "close"-event. (reason for the slow ending) In that script there's "display = 0" (the reason for white screen) ... View more

Hi André, with the function "find" you only can only access a document, but not a book. So your way will be: - open the Book - find all textinsets -> array - open all textinsets one by one. - use "find" for every single FM-file in a loop for every regexp. Sounds easy, but the devil is in the details. ... View more

Hi Klaus, thanks a lot, pointing to that solution. I'll try to work it out and give you a feedback. oDoc.IsInFront = 0;         oDoc.IsInFront = 1;  Doing that workes only if at least 2 dokuments are open. Ergo: It doesn't work. ... View more

Hi Klaus, thanks a lot for your suggestions. The problem is, to put the focus on the document, when working with a palette-window. In my little script above, when you click "Go", the text is inserted at the insertion point. What I want to do then is, just to write in the document, without clicking with the mouse to the insertion point. Things I've already tested: - scrollToText - oDoc.IsInFront = 1 - oDoc.TextSelection = tRange I've also tested Shift - F7: no success. ... View more

Hi André, my answer is in English, because not all of the other supporter here in the forum speek German. I just summarize your answer in English: You try to read the found text. - You can replace the found text with search/replace, also Or what do you want to do with that text? When you say complete text, do you mean the whole text of the paragraph or what exactly do you mean with "complete text" Could you plese describe a little more in detail, what you are trying to achieve? ...

Hi andrée91081766, you can do this without ExtendScript. Open Search-window (ctrl-f), select "text type in your regular expression select "regular expression" select "Book". (search in) That's it. [EDIT] You need at least FM 12 for regexp ... View more

Quote from a Swiss forum : Framemaker 2017 - Adobe FrameMaker - HilfDirSelbst.ch - Forum In order to download Adobe Framemaker 2015 Windows English, click on the first link mentioned below and comeback to this email. The first link will take you to the “Download CS5 products”. Do not click on download. https://helpx.adobe.com/...oduct-downloads.html Kindly stay on that page and click the below two links one by one and save the files on your desktop. http://trials3.adobe.com/...memaker_13_LREFDJ.7z http://trials3.adobe.com/...emaker_13_LREFDJ.exe .exe is a smaller file and .7z is a larger file. Wait for both the files to download completely.  When both the files finish downloading or saved in the same location, then run the second file (.exe) which will start extracting the first file (.7z) and will start installing Adobe Framemaker 2015 on your computer.

Hi KAKADu, I don't think so. You can find all Notification in  "Scripting Guide ADOBE® FRAMEMAKER® 2015 release"  on page 741. The one, that comes nearest is :Constants.FA_Note_BackToUser (34): Meaning: Any user action, such as a command choice or text entry. But I don't think that is what you are looking for. Could you descripe what you are trying to achieve? Maybe, there's another way? ... View more

Hi Klaus, I would like to have (at the beginning of a script) a statement such as: "Clear the Situation" or "Reset Environment". Reset in ESTK is (or can be) very dangerous and destructive, because it deletes ALL of used variables, not only these from that script you are degugging at the moment. That is a task, that a programmer / scripter has to do accomplish. In some cases I do it at the start and at the end of a script. There are methods to avoid global variables. I need some time to prepare an example and then I will open a new thread. ... View more

Hi Klaus, you should create a group to add your edittext to this group. Then it works.

Hi jwermont, I could offer you a free script, that shows you all unused paragraph formats. You can (multi-)select which of them you want to delete.(PgfFmtCleaner) Additionally a script, that removes unused table formats (TableFmtCleaner) and another, that removes unused variables (VariableCleaner). But they are in German only (at the moment). You can download them here: Fairies Thats a whole bunch of free scripts (included a menu). ... View more
