I am still waiting for management to upgrade this site to FM 6.0, so don't have access to the User Guide at the moment. However, I am designing a new template that relies on FM 6 capabilities. Can someone tell me if the Running H/F 1 variable can be defined as <$paratext[PartTitle]>\r<$paratext[ChapTitle,AppTitle]>\r <$paratext[SectionHeading]> to create a three-decker running foot. I know that \r inserts a hard line break okay. But will the builder scan backwards THROUGH SEVERAL FILES to pick up the PartTitle text from the part title file? (I know that it is now possible to split chapters over several files and presumably the running heads and feet somehow extract the appropriate chapter title from the first chapter file.) I want to create this effect: A N C I E N T I M M I G R A N T S // Part title The Asian land bridge // Chapter title Influx of Tasmanian aboriginals // Section heading Any advice from current FM 6 owner very much appreciated.
