Have you tried experimenting with these settings?
This example is from the p.TOC and p.MiniTOC classes.
Edit: Can any of the proxies produce the sort of thing you're after? Maybe the List-Of Proxy or Menu Proxy?
Hope this helps!

Re: [Flare 10] Remove link from HTML5 skin header in Default
Yes, I have javascript to include Back and Forward buttons because the software forces our help to display in a browser window that does not have any of the typical browser buttons or menu (so, no back and forward buttons, etc.). Note: I'm not talking about the "Next" and "Previous&qu...

@Nicola - have you looked at https://icomoon.io/#docs/local-fonts ? Sounds much like what Alex is describing, for other fonts. @Alex: when I want to use icon fonts for PDF and HTML5 output - would you conditionalize the icons and use css for HTML5 and local fonts for PDF? We opted to go with the ap...

Re: Icons created using IcoMoon not displayed in PDF output
Thanks Lydia, I had already seen this thread. It's a bit disappointing that this goes back to 2006 and these icon fonts are still not supported in the PDF output. I'm going to contact Madcap directly on this. I'm surprised more people are not using these font icons in their documentation and runnin...

[Flare 10] Remove link from HTML5 skin header in Default.htm
Hello, Clicking the header area of our HTML5 help (in both the standard tri-pane help and the responsive version) results in some weird behavior. I'm not sure how to describe it, but the help goes into sort of a loop looking for "Default.htm" and the only way you can make it stop is to clo...

Re: Page layout issue
If the only difference between page layouts is text, you could use a single page layout with variables where the text needs to be different. You can have separate targets and TOCs for each manual and specify the variables to use at the target level. You would then assign the page layout(s) in the TO...

So, FontAwesome is fine to use if you're only generating HTML5 help, but you're out of luck if you're trying to do what I was. Hopefully, this will be resolved som...

Well, it is not a wall with switches, at first it is a wall. The label will indicate that this is a switch and based on that the switch can be operated.

I don't make the decisions :) How can we demonstrate how someone would experience these features? If there are 20 dropdown fields in a help topic, would a reader tell you the name of each dropdown or just say, "drop down" because that is the default title? Imagine a wall full of unlabeled ...
