Find/Change by Configuration
Find/Change is a plug-in for FrameMaker which is supplied and installed with the FINALYSER. The formatting of <TEXT> following a <p> is not supported. Wrap the <TEXT> that follows in a <p>.
The Find/Change plug-in allows you to automatically change random strings in a document.The information about the strings to be replaced and further parameters are located in a configuration file. You can use Find/Change on books as well as on individual documents.
After correct installation, the system loads Find/Change automatically when you start FrameMaker and displays it as a new itemFind/Change by configuration in the FINALYSER menu in FrameMaker's menu bar.
You use the Find/Change plug-in as follows:
1. Open the document that you want to edit (a book file or an individual document). You do not need to open book chapters first.
2. Click on Find/Change by Configuration>Edit Configuration to create or edit the configuration file.If a configuration file does not yet exist for the active document name[.Ext], the system opens template FrameMaker_Home\fminit\Plugins\FINALYSER\docs\TemplRTX.fm as DokName.rtx. Read the information, fill out the configuration table and save the file. After each saving of the configuration file Name.gix, you are prompted whether or not the binary data should be updated or not (File DocName.btx in the same directory).
3. Click on Find/Change by Configuration>Find/Change. If no file DocName.btx exists in the directory of the active document, a standard dialog opens and you can choose any appropriate binary file *.btx.This gives you the opportunity to create configuration files that are shared by several documents.
Hinweis: The system saves changed files in the book without prompting you ! You can prevent automatic saving by opening the book files (Shift + File>Open All Files in Book )before executing the function Shift + File > Open all Files in Book).
