Disable or enable the clear history stack warning (FrameMaker 7.2)

Disable or enable the clear history stack warning (FrameMaker 7.2)

Adobe FrameMaker 7.2 has multiple undo functionality, however, you can clear the undo history stack with in certain actions. FrameMaker displays a warning message “Cannot be undone. Undo history will be lost. OK to continue?” if the action you are about to take will result in the loss of undo actions. See page 46 of the FrameMaker 7.2 supplement in Program Files/Adobe/FrameMaker 7.2 for a list of commands that will clear the undo history stack.

Important: Saving a document clears the undo stack, but does not display a warning message.

Note: In previous versions of FrameMaker, the warning message “Warning: this action cannot be undone.” only affected the ability to undo the action you were about to perform. In FrameMaker 7.2, this warning indicates that you will lose all of the actions in the undo stack.

To Enable or Disable the Show Warnings While Clearing History feature:

1. Choose File > Preferences > General.

2. Check (to enable) or Uncheck (to disable) the Show Warnings While Clearing History checkbox.

3. Click Set.

You can also enable or disable the following options:

— Once For Every History Clearing Command: Displays the warning discussed in the FrameMaker 7.2 supplement once for ever scenario and then will not display it again.

— Always: Displays the warning dialogue for every scenario that clears the history every time that scenario happens.

Once you set either of these options, a pop-up window displays the message “Cannot be undone. Undo history will be lost. OK to continue?”.
