Yeah, I keep multiple tabs open all the time. I was just hoping you can open a bunch at once the same way you can with Word docs (as you mentioned). Alas.

Thanks for your prompt responses.

For the same reason as having multiple tabs in a browser open. It's nice to be able to quickly swap between multiple topics while you're editing one of them, so you can cross reference things.

Also, there are times when you have to make edits or add new content to many files. Why not open the 5-10 ...

Painfully dumb question ... is there a way from within the Content Explorer to open multiple topics at once, rather than clicking to open one at a time? I feel like I'm missing something incredibly obvious.

So far I've tried selecting multiple files using Shift + Click, and then double-clicking to ...

Thanks for your prompt reply! So, there's not an automated way to do it. I was afraid you were going to say that. I did think of the solution you suggested, but I agree, it's better in this case to disable the option and use the p styles you mentioned. Thanks!

Hi everyone,
Do you know if it's possible to select "Use TOC depth for heading levels" but ONLY have it reflected in the TOC, and NOT reflected in the main body as well? From the documentation, it doesn't seem like this is possible (*le sigh*), but wanted to know if there's a workaround anyone has ...

Cool, thanks for the tips. I'll try them out tomorrow and let you know if I meet with success.

Thanks for the input. In the version of Flare I'm using (V8), I don't think I need to manually add any pseudo classes, since they already show up for the parent MadCap:xref style and its classes.

See the attached screenshots that show what my stylesheet editor looks like. I *thought* it was set up ...

Okay, I changed the CSS settings in the default medium as well, but unfortunately this didn't solve the problem. My web output still shows the entire xref in blue. What's more, when hovering the mouse pointer over an xref, an underline shows up for the whole line (even though I set the text ...

Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out and let you know how it goes.

For my online output, I updated the non-print "mc-format" property of the "MadCap:xref" style to have the following format:

See {color #0088ce}{paratext}{/color}.

In addition, I have set the font color to be #000000. This means that both the word "See" and the period (".") in the cross reference ...

Okay, I tried this out, and works just fine. I set my Output destination to one directory, and set my Publish destination to a different one. As you said, the publish function simply copies the output files to another directory, and does not carry over the "Output" folder or the output file folder ...

Thanks. Will try that out and let you know how it goes.

Hi, everyone. For the Webhelp 2.0 (HTML 5) output, is it possible to lowercase the "Output" folder that gets generated? So for example, instead of

Output\(output file name)\Default.html

I would like to see

output\(output file name)\Default.html

The reason I am asking is that we're trying to ...
