- Is there a FrameMaker command/dialogue box/attribute that will make a text
- column "auto-size" to the text included in it (i.e., a text column that
- "shrink-wraps" to the vertical dimension of the enclosed text)? Ditto for auto-
- sizing frames.
-
- I'm trying to write a report with figure captions of variable
- lengths. Right now, I'm setting up an anchored frame containing the EPS
- figure and a text column with the figure caption. Each time I make a new
- figure (and caption) I have to "hand-craft" the vertical dimensions of the
- text column and the frame. Is there any way to have FrameMaker do this
- automatically?
