I had the same issue, and got this response. Hopefully they can get it updated by v2024: Hello John, Open SSH generates a SHA-2 key and support for SHA-2 and SHA-3 keys is an existing feature request on our end. I have created a Feature Request and submitted it to our Product Management team for rev...

OMFG. I've been trying to figure out how to fix that for weeks. Thanks, @naine_tw!

... The new stylesheet is basically a clone of our main one with a few extra items added to hide the unwanted elements: nav.tab-bar { display: none !important; } .MCBreadcrumbsBox_0 { display: none !important; } .sideContent { display: none !important; } @jsandora: Thank you for this! It fixed my i...

Likely you have selected the option in the PDF target to inject a TOC into the document if one doesn't exist. If you don't like where Flare inserts the TOC into the output (the beginning), then you need to create a new topic and insert a "TOC Proxy" into that topic. Save that topic, and i...

Oh! So y'all manually create a contents page, not use the TOC Proxy to create one automatically? I've never done that before, but found out how to do it. That was very helpful! I can now control my Glossary and TOC! I'll see if that allows me to control my bookmarks. PS... @doloremipsum, thank you f...

Thank you!! That worked!

So the stylesheet shows this: ..but I'm not sure where to set the chapter break?

I'm trying to get the glossary proxy to print in the PDF using an upper-alpha numbering format, but settting MadCap|glossaryProxy mc-page-number-format does nothing. My target is set to generate a glossary proxy.

@jbkalla, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Essentially you're just hiding the heading wherever it appears in the print table of contents. Could you post a description of what you're trying to achieve and your CSS code so the brains trust can have a look? Shoot. I was afraid of that. What's happeni...

Does this still work? It doesn't seem to for me.

Absolutely you can. See https://help.madcapsoftware.com/flare2021r2/Content/Flare/Glossaries/Other-Activities/Editing-Look-Glossary.htm for some information. The div.GlossaryPageTerm style changes the glossary term and div.GlossaryPageDefinition the definition for the term. Make sure you make chang...

Is there a way to change the formatting for the glossary proxy when publishing to PDF? Currently, the terms are a bit large and I'd like to change the font-size and maybe the layout. Thanks!
I should mention that our glossaries are auto-generated.

The Flare 2019 Quick Access Toolbar doesn't save all my items. For example, "Build Primary" doesn't save, but "Publish Primary" does. "Insert Image" saves, but "Insert Multimedia" doesn't. As an aside, it would be nice if we could move items around by holding ...

I'm having the same issue with Flare 2019. Some of my settings save, but some don't. For example, "Build Primary" doesn't save, but "Publish Primary" does. "Insert Image" saves, but "Insert Multimedia" doesn't.

Like the previous poster mentioned, it doesn't work in TriPane. This is effing annoying! I can uncheck the box, but nothing happens.

You're correct! That's exactly what was wrong! Thank you so much!

I'm linking to a local fontawesome stylesheet in one of my pages, but flare seems to be removing the link upon publishing. I can re-add it after the build, but before publishing and it works fine. FontAwesome calls characters using classes, without actually calling the font in the page so maybe that...

I've used Mimic 7 for the past few years. Tried moving to Mimic 8 when it came out, but couldn't get the videos to convert from flash to mp4/webm correctly. This past week, I tried moving to Mimic 8 again, but can't seem to insert cursors correctly. I can get them added and moving, but I'm trying to...

I don't know if it's because I'm using the favicon skin or if it's simply a 2017r2 bug, but the index page of my project now has a <title> tag of " Attribution: ". I had to edit the output page to fix it, as I'm not sure where this info is at in the project. I didn't see it in the properti...

From MadCap Support: Hello John, Thank you for Contacting MadCap Support. 1. Does one of the icon settings show up as an app icon in macOS? Yes, the icon will show up as an app icon in macOS. 2. I assume it's fine to use PNGs for the "Icons" in the Browser section, correct? Not ICO files?...

I love the new Favicon Skin options in Flare 2017r2, but I'm a bit unclear as to what sizes are optimal for all the settings. Here's what Flare tells me: Browser Section: Icon 16px square Icon 32px square Icon 96px square Shortcut icon ???px (I've been using a 256px square image, but I don't know wh...

Ah, thanks. That explains it. I'll have to adjust my way of thinking!

I just upgraded to Mimic 8, but there's no interactivity. The two videos in the "Interactive" folder just show a blank screen. Am I missing something? Do I need to use Mimic 7 with Flash for interactive videos?

Ah. It's an active bug: #65816

I'm pretty sure I submitted this, either as a bug or as a forum topic, a few years ago, but it's still an issue and I can't find an answer. I'm trying to find a way to link to a web page from a Mimic movie (Flash output). The action to do so hasn't worked for years. Does anybody know how the user ca...
