I don't know what topics they are supposed to be to know whether or not they were imported.

When I search in my WebHelp output, I found an instance where I get several results that have blank titles. When I open any of these topics, I get XML, but it doesn't appear to be an actual topic. It's the weirdest thing!! Has anybody seen this? Any ideas what the problem may be?

Thanks!

It's a Windows box. I'll check with our IT. Thanks!

Do I need to get to the actual server where the drive resides to correct the issue?

That's it!!! That's what changed. Our files used to be in source control so we worked on local copies. We are out of source control now, and we work off of a network drive.

The F5 refresh did not work for me.

Does anyone know why files listed in the Content Explorer would not be in alphabetical order? I did not used to be this way. I cannot say when it started occurring though. I thought it might have been newly created topics going to the bottom of the list but that does not account for everything. I sa...

Thanks, Graham. Your instructions and help has been great. I am getting inconsistent results as I try to test the plug-ins. I will keep working at it. Thanks again!

Thanks Graham! I used Flare v5.01 and PushOk SVN SCC plug-in version 1.6.3.1. I went through all the steps, and it appeared that the bind went fine. However, when I look in the TortoiseSVN Repo-browser afterward my project folder is empty. In Flare, all my files show as "Pending Add." Shou...

I am having hte same problem. I'm interested to find out if you were able to resolve your issue and if so, how?

Thanks!
Jeff

Thanks for the info! I may test it. If I do, I will post that result.

Thanks, Dave. Our projects are imported into Flare from TFS. Does that mean we can't rename the .flprj? If we can what all do we have to do to make sure everything stays in line?

We sometimes have two ro three projects going at the same time in Flare. They are for different versions of the same software. It is hard to tell them apart if more than one instance of Flare is open with a different project in each, because the .flprj file has the same name which is what you see in...

I am trying to generate a PDF. Towards the end of the process, I get a "Stack empty" compiler error that ends the process. Does anybody have any idea what this means? This is the first time I have tried to generate a PDF usinf the PDF target output.

Thanks!

The closest thing I found in Analyzer was a list of topics with images. I found a few things that worked. One was using dir *.htm /s /b > list.txt from the command prompt. The other was using a free program called Dirlister.

What is the best way to generate a report or list of all Flare topics?

Thanks!
Jeff

For your own sanity, I would change the names of the images - for example, instead of calling it Add.png everywhere I would change it to Add_Mod1.png, Add_Mod2.png or something like that. That way if someone copies / moves files to the wrong place by mistake, you don't end up over-writing one versi...

My main problem is that I seldom make sense to myself. Anyway, I need to setup your first scenario. The folder structure by module is now in place under Resources/Images. The difficult task before me now is getting the images moved or inserted into the correct Images folder and making sure the links...

I wish it would, but with a complication in there I don't think that would work. Here's my complication. I now need to have a more structured Images area based on modules within our application. So for one image, for instance Add.png, I need it to reside in multiple places. UI changes are being made...

Hi! Is there a way or a script that can be written to easily change the source location of an image file in multiple topics?

Thanks!

getting PushOK's product working for me was a challenge. I don't remember exactly how I did it, but I know that when I've created a new project, it is easier than trying to bind to an existing project. In any case, I've gotten it working and it works pretty good for me. Yes, the PushOK product has ...

I started a month or so ago exploring using the PushOK plugin. Our company is moving to Subversion for source control. I cannot seem to get the plugin configured properly. Has anyone been able to do an Import from Source Control using the PushOK SVN SCC plug in successfully? If so, any help that you...

Thanks for the replies! When you did an Import from Source Control, clicking Browse for the Project File takes me to a Select SVNURL, module an local path dialog. After I click OK, I go back to the Import from Source Control wizard but nothing is in the Browse Project File field. I can't click Next ...

We have been using Flare with TFS for a couple years now without a problem. The delays that some people have mentioned as a result of the integration with TFS were never an issue. Our company is getting ready to switch to Subversion, specifically Tortoise SVN. I have downloaded and installed the Pus...
