Applying Segementation Rules?
I just created a simple segmentation rule to break at a colon. I have it set up: Break segment after ":\s" (which I believe is after a colon followed by a space). However, its not splitting at the colon. Either a) my segmentation rules is incorrect or b) I cannot figure out how to populate...

Re: Alternative Output Names for Translated Docs
Yes, I understand that the compilation is done in Flare after the export. I'm trying to avoid having to change the target file in Flare every time I do an export of the project from Lingo. The problem is that Lingo exports the Target file from the source project, including its file name. So, every t...

Alternative Output Names for Translated Docs
Just getting started with Lingo over here. My question is about output file names. Is there a way to set it up so that each language has its own suffix specifying the language? So, if I'm creating HTML Help output, it'd be something like: Output-en.chm Output-fr.chm Output-ja.chm Output-cz.chm etc. ...

PDF keyword meta-data showing up in quotation marks
Hi all -- have an issue that I can't seem to find any documentation on. I am creating a PDF white paper, and one of the requirements is to add meta-data (title, author, subject, keywords, etc). Using the PDF Options section of the PDF target, I see the section to add these, and so I do. In the keywo...

Re: Can't get rid of left margin in HTML5 output
Yeah, I tried that setting. Even changing it to 100%, that left white space remains. Instead, it moved all of text flush with the left edge of the gray bar in the header. Any other ideas?

Can't get rid of left margin in HTML5 output
Hoping someone can help out here. I just got done moving our HTML5 Tripane help system over to a Top Navigation style. I still have some quirks to figure out (i.e. we have way too many top-level books in our TOC!) The one issue I can't figure out is the left margin. When I compile the output, there ...

Re: Using Macros to assign keyboard shortcuts to styles
I've recorded and saved a macro in Flare 11.1.0. But when I go to the Keyboard Shortcuts tab, the macro doesn't show up anywhere to assign a shortcut. I've verified that the command is set to XML Editor and I'm looking for Playback: <name of macro>. Anyone have any ideas on what's going on?

Flare 10 and CHM Font issues
I just upgraded to Flare 10 from 9.2, then compiled our projects to make sure it all still works. What I noticed is that the fonts look different. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? In Flare 10, * Paragraph spacing is decreased * Font size has changed * Bullet points are smaller The font we are...

Re: Footer not showing up in PDF output
Thanks for the replies. My page layout is very simply -- all it has is a body block and a footer. The footer has only the page number in it. Today, I got in and tried removing the page layout completely and adding one of the templates that comes with Flare -- even then, the footer doesn't show up. W...

Script error occurs when navigating between CHM files
Hello all! We're _almost_ done with converting our files to MadCap, but have come across a little hiccup that I hope someone can help us with. We have merged multiple Flare projects into a single parent CHM file. In some cases, there are links in the child CHM files that point to a page in the paren...

HTML5 Output: Adding alt text to logo
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to add alt text to the logo image on HTML5 output without modifying default.htm post-build. Basically, when you hover over the logo, we'd like it to say something like "Help System Introduction" in a little bubble. (The same as if you hover o...

Re: <![CDATA] ]]> replaces new line in source files
hm, interesting...our original source files already have <pre> tags. A little bit about our setup: Our code is automatically generated by a secondary application (Sandcastle), and then we import the resulting HTML files into MadCap. Is there any reason why MadCap would ignore the <pre> tags? As you'...

Re: Flickering scroll bars
Try adding this line inside the <head> element (again, will need to do a post-build fix or modify default files): <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" /> This should force IE to use standards mode when rendering that document.. I had the same issue, and this reso...

<![CDATA] ]]> replaces new line in source files
When converting HTML files over to XML with Flare, MadCap is replacing some of my new lines with <![CDATA] ]]> tags. In most cases, I don't mind, but many of these occurrences are code samples where new lines are required. Is there any way to work around this issue? Original HTML: <span class="...
