Re: Folder sort order in folder select dialogs
In Windows File Explorer, there's a button for sorting by file name, date modified, etc. Perhaps that is affecting it? It's on the View tab in File Explorer.

Re: Tablet/Mobile Medium Displayed in Web Browser
The tablet view generally kicks in at a specific pixel width. Have you tried making your browser window larger? If your browser window is already full screen, then it could be because of the Window Scale and Layout setting. If it is set to more than 100% then the browser window will have "fewer...

Re: Controlling background image size
Yeah some CSS isn't supported by PDF generators, and this seems like this is one of them. The generators seem to be black boxes for supported properties though, so it's a bit trial and error. One thing you could try is also specifying the width, in case it's just the 'auto' height value that isn't u...

Re: Edit top nav off canvas wrapper inner style
I had a poke around in the customer showcase examples and I think it might be a style in the foundation css called ".js-off-canvas-exit". I think it'd just be the box-shadow setting you'd need to specify yourself. Whether you can specify it in your skin or topic css I'm not sure. It might ...

Re: Can't Adjust Column Width in Table
That's the way html tables work, rather than being something Flare is doing. The width and height adjust to fit the content if there are no wrapping opportunities e.g. a long string with no spaces or hyphens. You could try adding wordbreak: break-all; to the table or td definition (I'm unsure if the...

Re: HTML5 with PDF library

display: contents has very poor support across browsers, so I personally would probably avoid using it. https://caniuse.com/css-display-contents

Re: Can Flare include graphics in the TOC?
I don't think the toc includes icons as I believe the text is taken from the title tag, not the h1 in the topic. However, you could look at whether you can achieve something similar using tocentry classes and the mark as new feature. https://help.madcapsoftware.com/flare2023r2/Content/Flare/TOCs/Pro...

Hmm although reading your post again, maybe you have to create to different versions of output, but just aren't allowed to use conditions?

Or, if the objection is that conditions are proprietary, they are, but they are just text, so you could find/replace them to your own "data- " attribute if you move to a different system. Or implement your own data- attributes now, athoug applying them is likely to be a bit of a pain. http...

Re: Using topics in multiple projects
I think you can still use conditions, but instead of excluding them from specific builds you leave them in, then use css to show/hide based on screen breakpoints. So in the output (and I'm going from memory here, so the examples are are for illustration only) you'd get something like this: <p mc-con...

I'd check that the csh is correctly linked to a file in the project. For example, maybe the path is slightly wrong and the file doesn't exist in the destination location (this happens easily when using relative paths and getting the number of ../ wrong). Or maybe the file was deleted or moved but th...
