Thank you Nita! We are using Flare 8 now but this would be a reason to start thinking about Flare 9.

Does anybody know if there is a way to use search for the Index pane in HTML5 output? We have just switched from CHM and there was an option to perform search on the Index pane. Is there a way to do it with HTML5? My index list is really long and I can't see a way to search through it or perform let...

Hello! I am trying to make glossary terms look like hyperlinks in my project. I am applying MadCap.glossaryTerm.Hyperlink style to them but they are displayed in the footers in the generated PDF output. No hyperlinks. Flare help says that I can apply different glossary terms styles for online target...

Thank you so much, lacastle! This is the main part of the puzzle I was missing! Now I am sure I'll be able to make it!

Thank you everybody for help!

Just tried out! The page breaks are fine. But now both pages that go after the chapter page have First page layout assigned. Here is how everything is set now. Chapter 1 - First page type, First.flpgl applied --page 1 - no settings. This page has two H2 heading to tell where to make a page break In ...

Thanks a lot ChoccieMuffin! I will try this out! I think it might solve the problem with page breaks. But then how do I apply left and right paglayouts to this pages?

So I have the following page layouts: Chapter -type first Right- type right Left - type left And the following TOC st...

Thanks a lot, Nita! I tried this out and it is working! You right! This approach is more correct I would say.

I think I found a solution. I used Title variable in the system variable set and provided the same title in the topic properties to all the topics in the same chapter. Thanks for the hint, Nita! I didn't know where to search.

Thanks for a quick reply, Nita! I had no idea about what heading variable set is for! I looked at it closer but seems iy doesn't solve my problem. The thing is that I have a first chapter page and it has the chapter name on it all the following pages must have the same chapter name in the heading. R...

Hi! I am looking for a way to place chapter names to the headers for PDF outputs. I use different page layouts for odd and even pages in my document. I want the Odd pages to have chapter name in the right-head corner. I found an example in Flare help saying that you can do so by using Page layouts. ...
