Fdk Clients - Adobe FrameMaker 7.0 User Manual

• The values for MakerWin specify normal, minimized, and maximized positions. The first value determines which
position to use; its value is 1 for normal, 2 for minimized, or 3 for maximized. The next six values are pairs of x
and y offsets that specify the different window positions; the first pair specify the minimized position, the second
pair specify the maximized position, and the third pair specify the normal position. The last two values are the
normal window width and height.
• The settings for the Paragraph Catalog and Character Catalog (PCatalog and CCatalog) specify first an x and y
value for the location of the catalog. The x value specifies the offset in pixels from the left side of the screen. The y
value specifies the offset in pixels from the top of the screen. Optionally, the width and height of the catalog, in
pixels, appear after the x and y values.
ECatalog positions the Element Catalog. This is only available when running FrameMaker in Structure mode.
•
The rest of the settings specify only an x and y value for the left and top offset of the window or dialog box.
•
If you open and move one of these windows or dialog boxes, the location is modified in the [DialogLayout] setting
when you exit. This becomes the default location the next time you start FrameMaker.

FDK clients
