Can you set a default browser for Flare that overrides the user's computer settings?

Figured it out. I disabled the OL, LI, and UL styles, and then imported the factory style sheet. I haven't checked every Flare topic, but I think it worked. Lesson learned: AutoNumber is not as easy as it looks.

How do I reset the counter for each ordered list?

I tried to be slick and apply styles to my ol, li, and ul lists, but it turned into a disaster. I then tried to reset all styles to Default (not set), but when I do that, I can't get back any of the list actions. For example, I can't set the ...

I would like to set up text size for my online help. Right now, I've set all p. fonts to "small" instead of locking them in to 1 em, or 12 pts, etc. In addition, I would like to have a control that allows a user to increase the text size (i.e., plus/minus buttons). See attached file.

I'm trying to change the background from the default blue to a gray (same color as tab). I was able to change the tab, but I cannot find where to change the border. I've been going through each Style, but I can't seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction?
