Hi Richard,
Thanks for the info. As for draft/final setting I see that
fixme.module contains the lines:
AddToPreamble
\usepackage[status=draft]{fixme}
EndPreamble
Apparently if I change this to:
\usepackage{fixme}
then fixme gets the status from the \documentclass options.
However, I find that if I set the \documentclass options to include
"draft" then the fixme notes are printed in the margins (as expected),
however now my figures are not displayed (only the filenames are
printed in boxes, not expected). When the option is empty (and
therefore defaulting to "final") the fixme notes are not displayed and
the figures are (as expected). (PS I am using the article class)
In case this is of any use to others it may be best/easiest to change
the status in the fixme.module file (and to close the document and
re-open it in order for the change to occur next time the pdf is
generated).
Also, thanks for the info on LFUN and shortcuts... I'll have a play with this.
Ken
It appears that this seems to set the status of fixme to draft.
