Resolve a cross-reference when a marker has been deleted

  1. Open the Cross-References panel, choose Filter > References > Unresolved Cross Reference. Ensure that you have the correct filename selected. The panel shows all unresolved cross-references.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • If you do not need the cross-reference, delete it.

    • If FrameMaker finds an unresolved paragraph cross-reference, double-click the cross-reference to display the cross-reference dialog box and specify a different source. Click Replace.

    • If FrameMaker finds an unresolved spot cross-reference, insert a new cross-reference marker in the source text. Select the new marker from the cross-reference dialog box. Click Replace.

Resolve a cross-reference when the ID and ID Reference values mismatch

For structured documents, edit the ID or the ID Reference value so the two values match.

ID attributes are often read-only, so you may have to edit the ID Reference.
