RE: running h/f in FrameMaker

["Kay Ethier" <kethier -at- travelthepath -dot- com>]

Hi Karen:

Define your running H/F as:

<$paratext[Heading1_top, Heading1]>

Spacing and case counts, so make sure that your paragraph tags are listed
exactly as they appear.

It stops when it finds one of either, and looks in the order they are
listed. That is why I suggest putting the "top" type first...it will either
be there or not, and if it is there, will be first.

Let me know if this is helpful,

Kay

Subject: running h/f in frame



Hello Everyone,

I have a Frame template with two heading 1 tags: one that flows anywhere
within the text (Heading1) and one that flows always at the top of a page
(Heading1_top).

I want to create a footer that inserts the text from heading 1. This would
be simple if we only used one heading 1 tag...unfortunately our team wants
to have the choice of where the heading appears in the file, hence the need
for two heading 1 tags. That being said, is there any way in Frame to create
a footer that looks to see if a Heading1 or Heading1_top appears on the
page, and only displays the first one that appears on the page?

I look forward to your feedback. My preference would be to lose one of the
tags.

Thanks,
Karen
