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

Are the pdfs going to change regularly and are they maintained by you or some other business area? If they are largely static, I think I would create a separate folder and subfolders on the webserver and store them there, then link to that folder using a standard url (htttps://mysite.com/pdfs/catego...

Re: CSS in Flare shows Flex property as invalid

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

Then you can copy any plain css styles across, and note any rh specific things you'll need to recreate. Things like expanders, ...

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...

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...

Re: Error "Make sure the web address //ieframe.dll/dnserrordiagoff.htm# is correct"

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...

Re: Glossary proxy in HTML output

I think you should be able to use a menu proxy that displays only the style used for the letter headings.

Re: Topic not found in search results

Does ‘Algemene rapportagecodes’‘ appear in other topics and those topics also do not show up when you search for those words? I assume this is the case because of point #2 but figure it's worth double-checking.

Perhaps those words are in the stop words list?
