Looks good. Have you used this with Flare output? Is there a process that I can refer to for implementation with Flare?

Thanks Dave for the hint. If anyone else is looking for a solution to this, here is the script. Mind you, I have strung together bits and pieces of code from the web and other optimum solutions may exist :lol: Every table in a particular topic would need a unique ID, and a header row, for this code ...

This is not working. Is there a way to find out where I am going wrong?

Hi, Is it possible to associate multiple stylesheets with a PDF output? As I have a complex stylesheet, I want to break it down into two stylesheets. The online output seems to work fine but the PDF output does not pick up the second stylesheet. The stylesheets have been associated at the topic leve...

Hi All, I am facing an issue with this one. Did anyone use the above code and have multiple tables with different header names in the same topic? The headers from the first table are displayed for all the other tables too in the mobile output. See screenshots below. Desktop Desktop.PNG Mobile Mobile...

Thanks a lot Dave. That piece of code and css modified as below worked. TableStyle-GblAltBlue is the table class name. table.TableStyle-GblAltBlue { border: 0; } table.TableStyle-GblAltBlue thead { display: none; } table.TableStyle-GblAltBlue tr { margin-bottom: 10px; display: block; border-bottom: ...

Thanks a lot for posting this code.

Also, do you know how to limit this script to work on tables associated with a particular style class?

Thanks,
Deepti

Thanks a lot Dave!! That code works like beauty :D Is there a way to add error handling to the script and display a customised text instead of the red page not found error. I mean, I don’t want users to get lost when the topic is not available and at least stay in the same version. If above is not p...

Thanks a lot Ramon for taking out so much time to respond to my query. I really appreciate your help. Unfortunately, the application does not support CSH at the moment. It might in future versions of the product. The help links are the same except for the version number. I mean, I am reusing most of...

Hi, I have two versions of the help to cater to audiences using different versions of the software. I currently have two different targets and I am producing separate online help for each version. The user has to select the version of help on the Home page. Is it possible to add a button on each top...

I came across this solution posted here, viewtopic.php?f=68&t=27652&p=121848&hil ... rd#p121848. But I do not want to re-register and fill all the information again. Is there a shortcut to delete just the Subversion credentials.

Hi All, Here is my problem. I use Subversion for sourcecontrol and I select the Save password option when working with Flare projects. I have to change my LAN password every couple of months. 9 out of 10 times the password change process is smooth. I change my LAN password and when I open Flare the ...

Hi, I have a project where the primary output is a web-based output. Portions of the online output have been chunked into small PDFs. I have a single glossary file (created for the online output) which has been included in the PDF outputs. Is there a way to restrict the glossary generated in the ind...

Hi, I have two versions of Help. Some product functionalities are available within the older version of the application and others in the newer version. Users choose the appropriate version of help based on the functions they commonly use. Some content is common across applications. I want to insert...

Hi,

If anyone else is facing the same issue, the issue can be overcome by using generic style classes. Set the condition within the style class and the select part of the drop-down heading and apply the generic style class.

Thanks,
Deepti

That's right. Is there a style guide that I can refer to for mobile terminology. I thought I could do with the word "select" to suit all screens, but the action, "select" on a desktop would refer to selecting text for copy/paste. Also, right-click is supported on desktops but not...

Hi, I am working on the responsive topnav output and trying to publish desktop, mobile and tablet outputs. Other than using span classes for text such as Click vs Tap in my content is there any other way for example by using variables or other css approach so that the text changes based on the scree...

Thanks Daniel. You are right There were many links as I had created some template topics and had many links. I have removed the links and the compile time is much better now.

Hi Dave, Using the JQuery code is it possible to achieve the following? 1. Open hyperlinks, xrefs in new window only when the hyperlink or xref is not within the same topic 2. Open external references in a new window always We mostly have procedures and the user would want the current topic open whe...

Hi Daniel,

I have set that option. I can see all those other topics not included in the target in the Compile Status field of the build window. I wonder why Flare compiles those topics when they are not included in the TOC and when the exclude topics option is set.

Thanks,
Deepti

Hi, Could someone please throw some light on this? I have a Flare project with about 400 topics. I have both print and online targets. One of the online targets publishes about 300 topics, and the other about 30 topics. I use the second one (the one with fewer topics) mainly for testing before I cha...

Hi, Is it possible to achieve the same result for hyperlinks instead of image maps? When the user clicks a hyperlink within topic A, I want topic B to be displayed in a pop-up window instead of a new window. Also, I don't want to change the HTML tag of topic B to html.popup as when topic B is access...

Hi,

Can you please share the code for this? I do not have Flare 10 anymore and I cannot copy the pop-up link.

Thanks,
Deepti

Yes. That is the problem :) This the code in the Text editor. There is no empty tag. <MadCap:dropDownHead> <MadCap:dropDownHotspot>(This is the </MadCap:dropDownHotspot> <MadCap:conditionalText MadCap:conditions="GuideType.Gen4"> <MadCap:dropDownHotspot>Drop-down</MadCap:dropDownHotspot> <...

Hi, Is it possible to conditionalise part of the drop-down heading? I need to prepare two targets with different condition headings. For example, in Output A, the drop-down heading would be ABC Tabs and in Output B, the drop-down heading would be ABC Sections . Is there a way I can conditionalise Ta...
