Hello every one,I am currently facing a table issue. I shall keep my table in portrait but increase the number of columns (x4...), but doing so my table is too width. If I change the first title column to display text in landscape, I can keep the current layout. I only found the attribute to change the whole page in landscape and when I applied it on a p element inside the table it does not correctly work: the table width take all the page even for small table.Do you have any tip or clue to help me? You can find below exemples of the table I am trying to achieve and what I am actually achieving...Thank you in advance,

I need some kind of menu a user can select page formats. We have a lot of different formats and I do not want the users to have to keep typing in the ones they want to use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Just to add a little more info...I am new to ISM. I am looking for a selection type GUI. Other graphic editing tools I have used allow me to use HTML with radios, combo/list boxes, ... to query the user for a selection. I am guessing this is not possible for IsoDraw Macros. So far the only thing I see to query the user is a Get box.Thanks in Advance,Jim

Hi,we use the Arbortext Editor Version 6.1. If we delete a character after an inline element, arbortext deletes also the space:You can see this in this example:As you can see, the cursor is placed after the emphasis - element.If we would like to delete the point character with backspace, Arbortext deletes also the space character:That is absolutely not desired. Is there maybe a setting/option to change this behaviour?Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi we have 6 'Arbortext Editor - Locked License' V7.0, 1 'Arbortext Styler'-floating license V7.0 (currently installed 6.1), and 3 'Arbortext Print Composer'  V7.0 (currently installed 6.1). We currently have 8 editors, leaving 2 unable to edit. We were wondering what are our options are to get a license of Arbortext onto a terminal server so that our editors can essentially "take-turns" utilizing the licenses for the workflows? I understand that we would need to apply a floating license to the terminal server versus a node-locked license, but does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade a license to a flexnet floating license?On an aside, is there any trouble with a floating arbortext installed to a terminal server talking to a flexnet server for use of the publishing engine?Reference:https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS23456&art_lang=en&posno=1&q=terminal%20server&source=search

hi,We're recently converting documents from output of a customized version of Arbortext Editor to standard one, and one of the major challenges is we no longer have some customized features and markups, one of which is endnote. I'm wondering if there's any way to simply use footnote and change some attribute to remove number(s) so that it look like endnote?  BTW I don't think I could change stylesheet, as it's already defined.Thanks.best regards,Amy

I can't seem to get Arbortext to Work with the The workspace of Windchill.  Are there any adapters required or settting with Arbor Text.  Currently I have a bursting rule and it seems to upload everything to Windchill but in workspaces it does not work properly.  Settings in arbortext maybe required.  Bill Haraden 704-883-3781
