Object statements
The following table lists the changes in graphic object statements (see
“Graphic objects and graphic frames” on
page 104
).
Text lines, text frames, imported graphics, table cells, and equations that are rotated at an angle of 90, 180, or 270
degrees retain rotation in earlier versions. If these objects are rotated at any other angle, they are rotated back to 0
degrees in the earlier version. All other objects are rotated back to 0 degrees.
FrameMaker writes both
BRect
and
ShapeRect
values for backward compatibility. For text lines, text frames,
imported graphics, table cells, and equations that are rotated at an angle of 90, 180, or 270 degrees, the
BRect
value
is the position and size of the object
after
rotation. For any object rotated at any other angle, the
BRect
value is the
position and size of the object
before
rotation, which is the same as the
ShapeRect
value.
Device-independent pathnames
The following codes for pathname components in a device-independent pathname are obsolete and are ignored by
the MIF interpreter.
For information about valid codes, see
“Device-independent pathnames” on page 7
.
Document statements
The following changes have been made to
Document
statements.
In addition, the
Document
statement has a number of new property statements that set options for View Only
documents (see page 89), set options for structured documents, and define custom math operators (see page 179).
Page statement
The following change has been made to the
Page
statement.
A page’s size and orientation (landscape or portrait) is determined by the
PageAngle
statement and the
Document
substatement
DPageSize
. FrameMaker writes the
PageOrientation
statement for backward compatibility. MIF
generators should use the
PageAngle
statement instead of
PageOrientation
.
