Page layout in Structured Frame 7.2

Hi,
I'm developing a manual using Structured Frame 7.2. Due to the (very) short timeframe to do this I'm using the structured book template that comes with FrameMaker. My only changes to the layout however have been to the master pages: the text frame for the left page I've pushed over to the left so that, when viewed and printed, the white space will be in the center of the book, making room for the binding (see att graphic).
My problem is how can I get tables to run across pages and balance themselves out from left to right? Obviously they're in a single <table> element and I don't want to break the table up because then I can't use the table continuation variable. There must be a solution but I just can't think of it. Advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Carl

Have you tried creating room for side heads in your layout, something like this?
The paragraphs in this example are all formatted as In Column (the normal position of paragraphs) in the Pagination properties of the Paragraph Designer. The side head area Closer/Farther from Binding property positions the text area.

  • Custom Master Page changes wont apply to few page layouts

    Dear All
    I'm having issue applying custom branding to SharePoint 2010 sites.. Branding works overall fine but it doesn't apply to few pages.
    For example if I click on Enterprise and Metadata Keyword Settings in Document library the changes are not applied. I notice it's a page called metadatacolsettings.aspx in layouts and I see it references application.master.. Similarly I see couple
    of other pages out of sync and all of them have application.master as Master Page..
    Any ideas why this could be happening.. Please let me know
    Thanks

    Hi,
    pls check below links
    There are a few things to consider.
    Have all page layouts / master pages been checked in and published / approved?
    Have you created a new page using the custom page layout?
    Are you creating or modifying this content?
    Keep in mind, the progression of rendering goes as follows:
    masterpages determine the ASP.NET structural layout.
    Page Layouts determine the SharePoint structural layout based on the masterpage ASP.NET structural layout.
    Your .aspx pages determine what content to display based on the Page Layout SharePoint structural layout.

  • When I click on purchase book, i get message "Incomplete Book. Your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos." I have checked the page layouts several times and no missing seem to be missing.

    when I click on purchase book, i get message "Incomplete Book. Your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos." I have checked the page layouts several times and no missing seem to be missing. Any suggestion? page layouts and number of photos are consistent. several pages are identified as custom, as a result of captions added to several photos. I'm using a macpro and iphoto11.

    There is one or more missing photo - typically a page background requiring a photo that is hidden behind a layout with photos in it - look through every page for that - any page tha thas a grey background rather than color is a problem - and it ccan be behind a full page photo so you have to check the page background rather than just look at the page

  • Default Frame Page layout

    Hi Experts,
    We have created a new page layout from standard components com.sap.portal.layouts.framework.par
    In this new layout has been defined a fixed size for the width of the page (width = 1024px) and alignment (align=center).
    Applying this layout, all the elements contained in the Default FrameWork Page are in accordance with the size and alignment defined except the Top Level Navigation which is always adjusted to the left of the browser window.

  • How can I change get a 2xportrait page layout in iPhoto 11?

    I am laying out a new wedding photo album in iPhoto 11 (version 9.2.3) using the Formal hardcover theme. A new album appears with a number of pre-set layouts: one of which has two portrait photos side by side.
    There are two pre-set pages with this layout but I want more like this as I have a lot of full length photos from the shoot. However, this layout does not appear in the 2-photo layouts that are offered when I try to change the layout of a particular page. The closest is two landscape photos.
    If I drag a portrait photo into one of these, it gets cropped.
    Is there a way that I get a two-portrait side by side layout? If not, then can somebody recommend an alternaive to iPhoto for producing high quality printed photo albums?
    Gareth

    That theme will only offer landscape for 2 photos per page layouts.
    1 - click on the Layout button at the bottom while viewing the page you want to change:
    In the Layout tray at the right you can select any number of photos per page and layouts for those photos:
    If I drag a portrait photo into one of these, it gets cropped.
    Some themes allow you to Control-click on the photo and select "Fit Photo to Frame Size":
    but the Formal theme is not one of them.
    The Modern Lines theme gives you two portrait per page with a variety of frames under Options and Fit to Frame Size:
    With a gray backgroud you get this:
    HOWEVER, if you have an image editor that supports layers or Pages (part of the iWork suite of apps) you can create a custom page for the Formal theme with the two portraits side by side.  This tutorial describes how: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book

  • File/Import and Page Layout not working anymore

    I have a question about old software: FrameMaker 6.0 on a Mac. (While Adobe encouraged me to purchase this in 2001 for the chemistry textbook I am writing, I had invested to much to abandon it when Adobe abandoned the Mac version a few years later.)
    I have imported dozens of images files into the 750 page book and FrameMaker has accepted both tif and jpg formats. The way I did it was to create an anchored frame in the textbook, click on it, and then File>Import and select the image file and then choose whether I wanted it to be referenced or actually in the text.  All of this worked fine... until a couple of days ago.
    Problems
    1. I no longer get Import as an option under File and
    2. FrameMaker no longer recognizes tif and jpg files under "All Readable Documents"  when I do File>Open.  I have to click on Show All Files to see them.
    As a result I am unable to import any tif or jpg files into the FrameMaker textbook.
    What's curious is that I have 6.0 installed on both a G4 and a PowerBook and this problem has occurred on both at  the same time.
    3. And I just discovered that when I do Format/Page Layout the half a dozen or so custom formats that I had are no longer listed.
    So what has caused this loss of memory for Framemaker that it can no longer do what it has done for me for years.  (I am somewhat sympathetic to it's memory loss myself as a 78 year old user.)
    The G4 has been unplugged recently but in the past it has been unplugged for a week or so and there were no problems.

    I don't know if read-only files are recognized by FrameMaker to the point where it will dim commands that need to write to the files.
    It's always a good idea on Mac to repair permissions with Disk Utility - make sure you have good backups, just in case.
    Have you tried saving a file that can't import as MIF, then opening the MIF version to restore the file, and perhaps lose any corruption in it? This is called the "MIF Wash."
    I think the latest Mac OS that FrameMaker can work with is system 9, or the Classic simulator that runs on the OS X release called Tiger. I'm sure you'd know if you changed operating systems in this period. Classic won't run on Intel Macs.
    I have no other clues about what might cause this, except the general thought that something has changed on your systems or in the files you're working with. Does the problem persist in a brand-new file you create on your local drive? If you're working with FM files on a network, have you tried the process with files on your local computer drive? Have you quit FrameMaker and restarted your Macs? Any change? If you have a cloned bootable backup of your stuff from before the problem arose, you might want to try cloning your problematic drive to a new bootable backup, then restoring the known good clone, to see if it works.

  • Importing framework page layouts

    Hello,
    I am trying to configure a portal frame work page myself. I have created the necessery iViews such as MastHead, toplevel navigation etc and pages. <i><b>Now i need to assign tghe portal framework layouts such as "Light Navigation Panel & Content Area Layout" or "Frame work page layouts for light portals" etc.</b></i>
    I searched for the same in Layout templates folder. But i could find only the default layouts such as 1 Column(full Width), 2 Columns (Equal width)etc
    When i tried to create a new layouts from PAR, i coud only find the default layouts par file. <b>Where could i get these PAR files?</b>
    <b>How can import these portal layouts</b>
    Kindly help,
    Regards,
    Sudheesh

    Hi Sudheesh,
    You can create your own Page layout file using this <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sapportals.km.docs/documents/a1-8-4/How%20to%20Create%20a%20New%20Portal%20Desktop.zip">zip file</a>.
    To create a new framework page import the par file into your Netweaver Developer studio. You will find the foll: jsp's dynNavArea.jsp,framework.jsp and WAandNavPanel.jsp. You can change the jsp's and deploy it again which will overwrite the default one. Or you can rename the package and the par file to create a new one and create a new framework page without changing the default one.
    This <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/1324">weblog</a> will also help you.
    Hope this helps.

  • Change of page layout settings in bsp

    HI Gurus,
    i am working on customizing a weblayout for objective settings&appraisals(ecc6.0).

    I need to customize the page layout and split the frame work of the layout into header and details part.

    Awaiitng on ur replies.
    Thanks&Regards

    Harry,
    Short answer: No - either a shape or some other media - when placed using the Document Setup options, the color shape is placed in the background of all other objects (it becomes the page color) anything placed on the page in the normal Edit Mode will be on top of the background and not hidden.
    See attached images - I placed a shape on part of the document to show the original and added color - if you stretch the shape to cover the page, the entire page will take on the color of the shape:
    Try it.

  • Inline objects in page layout mode

    Before I drive myself any more insane than I already am can someone please confirm, or otherwise, that it isn't possible to use inline objects in page layout mode or, indeed, inside text boxes in word processing mode? Assuming this is the case can anyone suggest a work around?

    Please don't become insane, there already too many such human beeings
    Here is the way I work (mainly because I don't store my photos in iPhoto).
    drag and drop the picture file onto the doc's page.
    select the picture frame with its square handles
    Cut it so it will no longer appear but is stored in the clipboard.
    Put the cursor where you want to insert the picture then paste.

  • Page Layout component

    Hi,
    I'd like to implement a simple page layout component in my application. Users should be able to put text and image elements on a page, scale the image within a frame etc.
    I can start developing such a component but I wondered if there are any free or commercial components on the web somewhere?
    I did a search but found nothing.
    Anyone an idea?

  • Word Processing to Page Layout???

    I've just a whole 100 page document in word processing (with lots of pictures). Is there any way that I could change the formating of the document from 'word-document' to 'page-layout' after the fact? Like with ONE click maybe?
    Or am I dreaming?

    What benefit do you expect to get from this?
    I think I can see a potential benefit. If you could easily put your text in full page text frames throughout the entire document, you could then go back and adjust the frame size on certain pages, where the layout requires it.
    We may do all these tasks in the WP mode.
    Linked text blocks are our friends.
    We can do it, yes, but not easily. If you have a hundred pages, you need to connect one hundred text boxes by hand. In InDesign, you basically just shift-click once, and all the one hundred pages are created with linked text boxes in just a few seconds.
    It would also be a way to easily create blank pages in the middle of the document.
    Insert two page breaks do the trick.
    It works, if you do not care where the blank page is. But if you want page 14 to be empty, two page breaks will not do it, as you do not know how the text will float around. In word processing mode, my spontaneous solution would be to insert a white floating picture that covers page 14, and make sure the text wraps around it.
    InDesign has simpler solutions for this, but then it costs almost ten times as much as Pages.
    In France it costs quite 13 times the price of the complete iWork package !
    Indeed.
    Adobe's pricing policy is btw a mystery to me. InDesign's French version costs 1030 euro, but the English version is only 910 euro, even if you buy it in France. Do they really have to charge you 120 euro for speaking French?
    Put another way, for the same price as one French copy, you can buy the English copy + iWork (in both French and English and a bunch of other languages) + dinner for two.

  • Query about structured Frame templates

    In Frame 12 all the templates have been updated.
    I built my book using unstructured templates because I wanted to get a feel for the changes from my last version of Frame (8).
    I now think I will need to redo the book entirely using the templates from structured Frame.
    The unstructured Frame template for a book has all master pages in every file in the book. The structured template for Chapter has only master pages: left, right, first. Is there a reason for this? (Should not every file in the book have the same master and reference pages?)
    Thanks.

    AFAIK, you have to supply your own IDE & compiler.

  • Different display page layout in Display Layout mode and in Preview mode

    Hi everyone,
    can anybody help me to understand why it is different display page layout in
    Display Layout mode:
    I have 2 collumns
    and in Preview mode:
    I have only one column
    is there some option that I didn"t check in layout page properties?

    The only thing you can try, is to have a defined number of lines, where the last line only consists of a few words. That may(!) give enough room for different browser rendering. But there is definitely no guarantee.
    You may as well force the text frame to be converted to an image (Place one single character – point, space – out of a system font. This will force Muse to convert the text into an image – thus preventing txt reflow)

  • Multi-page layout

    Friends please help me with this.
    The information I need for a single record runs to 2 pages, which means I have a multi-page layout. I have pulled the repeating frame to the second page and created some fields with-in the frame in the second page. When I run the report it gives me 'Object body is not fully enclosed by its enclosing object' error. Can someone help me set the property palette for the frame to print multiple pages.
    Thanks
    Joe.

    Hi Joe,
    It is quite difficult to help you set the properties without looking at the report layout, because this is a very generic error and can be caused by several types of mistakes in the report design. What I would suggest is - do not pull the repeating frame to the second page. If you want a page break after the previous frame / repeating frame, set the property "Page Break After" to yes.

  • Fireworks or Indesign for web page layout?

    Hi, I've currently ordered CS3 Web Premium and it won't ship
    until tomarrow, and I don't know whether I should cancel it and get
    the Design Premium instead.
    It all depends on whether Fireworks is a must have for web
    page design. Does it offer anything invaluable that I need that
    Photoshop Cs3 won't already fill? I saw the tour for InDesign and
    was impressed how you can create amazing page layouts and how you
    can export them to XHTML.
    I probably won't be using Adobe Contribute as I prefer making
    my own WYSIWYG editor in asp.net for my webpages, because I don't
    want to buy a new license of Contribute for every web page I make
    for a different client, so the choice of whether I should leave Web
    Premium and get Design Premium rest on whether Fireworks is more
    useful for webpage design and whether creating web page layouts
    with InDesign is worth paying the extra money for (I don't mind
    using it to create computer software manuals as well).
    I appreciate any input on this matter. :)

    Excellent clarifications, DWD.
