Hi,
I have an issue that occurs when a specific cross-reference style/format is
used together with conditional text. What happens is that when conditional
text is applied to a paragraph that contains this particular cross-reference
format and when the cond text is shown/hidden, somehow the cross-reference
style "breaks". This results in half of the x-ref becoming unconditional
(and shown when not desired) and half remains conditionalized.
The x-ref format is defined as:
<Blue>\<<$paratext>\></> field in the <$paratext [TableTitleRegister]>
<Blue>(Table\ <$paranumonly[TableTitleRegister] > p.\ <$pagenum>)</>
where TableTitleRegister is the paragraph format numbering register tables
and Blue is the character format. Here's an example of the resulting
cross-reference:
<AAAAA> field in the BBBBB Register (Table 121 p. 400)
When the x-ref is split into two separate x-refs (one referencing the table
and one referencing the field), conditional text operates normally and as
expected; however, this then means twice as many x-refs.
I'd appreciate any suggestions as to modifications that could resolve this
issue or a different format that could be used (with same basic desired
result).
Any help would be appreciated. I've also cross-posted this question to the
Framers listserv.
