Hi

{FM 7.2 on WinXP, "designing" an XML application}

My DTD/EDD has three graphic elements: <screenshot/>, <img/> and <icon/>. Content rules for higher-level containers impose the constraint that <icon> is the only graphic element that can be inserted within text, while the other graphic elements may be inserted virtually anywhere else.

<screenshot> and elements should be positioned "below" the insertion point, while <icon> elements should be positioned "inline", but with a negative baseline offset. My "rules" file is set up so that when I open an XML source file the graphics appear how and where I want.

Unforunately when I am inserting a new graphic into a document (via File > Import; I can't find any other way to do it) the controls in the rules file are not used. Framemaker uses the context to determine what sort of graphic I must be inserting: thus if I am within a text unit it forces the creation of an <icon> element, while if I am positioned between <paragraph>s it offers me a choice of <image> or <screenshot>. But the <icon> is positioned "below" the insertion point with a zero baseline offset, exactly the same as the other two element types.

How can I default those graphic/frame properties correctly? There doesn't seem to be any way of specifying them in the EDD.

Thanks
Trevor
