Great thanks for your help Kellie. This looks great right away -- I'm getting closer.... Now another question: For my project, the final size has a limit that is pretty small, under 2 MB. When try this merging method with two projects, I've tripled my Data, Resources and Skins -- the largest folders...

Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to wrap my head around this and am confused how to create the master project's TOC comprised of the other projects' output. Is through by linking a new topic to each project's 'default' html output? (Additionally I was a bit confused from the Help topic you pointed ...

Hi all. I have a project that has been translated into 10 languages and therefore there are 10 separate Flare projects. I'm interested in outputting to a single HTML5 and somehow use the same skin to generate the output, using a single set of resources and target/skin data. Ideally you could toggle ...

Im getting confused on how to style Headings when I output a PDF. My structure is as follows: Topic A (H1, H2s, Paragraphs etc) Book (This Title becomes an H1) - Topic B (H1, H2s etc) -Topic C (h1, h2s etc) When I output to PDF, Topic A and Book Title become H2 styles. My Topic B H1 becomes an h2 be...

OK, i just tried this and it doesn't work: This new Home folder (containing my project) is still AFTER the TOC folder, which is where the Home button corresponds to. The page that corresponds to the Home button contains the search button, TOC, Index etc. Once I click "TOC" then i come to t...

Thanks for the reply. That sounds great, except that like I mentioned, I am using Webhelp Mobile and I don't believe I have the option of the accordion tab being visible side by side content. From what I understand, you have to click through home > toc > book 1 > topic 1 in order to get to topic 1. ...

I am trying to get my breadcrumbs to link to the TOC. Currently, my structure is such: Intro Topic Book 1 --Intro to Book 1 (not in TOC just linked to Book 1) --Topic 1 --Topic 2 Book 2 --Topic 3 --Topic 4 I have to go multiple levels to get to a page: home>toc>book 1>topic 1 . And yet my breadcrumb...

One hurdle i'm encountering is the number of clicks I need in order to get to an actual page. I am using mobile help output (due to file size constrictions, I think this is the only output that works). Currently, my home page is TOC + search (I really wish i could make this an ACTUAL welcome page wi...

Hi I am writing a help for a Adobe Flex-based software that runs from an embedded server on a product. The size allotment for the help file is but 1 Mb. We translate our materials into 10 langauges. Currently, my English-only output is @ roughly 475 Kb from the Mobile Help output. There are no image...

I am currently creating a Help reference file for a software interface. The Interface itself will be translated in addition to the Help file. The software developers have ID strings associated with each button on the interface. I want to tag my Help file with all of the buttons that will be translat...

Thanks whunter -- that was exactly what I was looking to do. Cheers.

By the way, i am using Flare V7

hi, I am trying to figure out how to get my bookmarks in a .pdf to mimic my TOC. I haven't defined any bookmarks beyond what is maybe coordinated with my stylesheet (i'm guessing). The following is an example of my TOC: Introduction Book 1 (many topics inside) Book 2 (many topics inside) Book 3 (man...
