Instead of creating a pop-up topic, you can use an alert or alerttitle hypertext marker, and provide pop-up content in the text of the marker itself.
You designate a hotspot the same way as for other
hypertext links; see §8.9.5.1 Using openlink and gotolink markers.
Type the marker text in FrameMaker as a reference string consisting of
the base file name, followed by Alert
, followed
by a number, starting with 0001
in each file.
For example:
The pop-up text appears in the default format; you cannot specify a different format.
To insert alert and alerttitle markers, see §34.1.2 Using markers to add links and instructions.
