Gonna give this a bump one last time, then I'll move on.......

Wondering if anyone out there can shed any light on this.

More input to clarify.....
Using Flare 10.2.2, HTML5 output, no print requirement.
Refer to the Index screenshot below.
When I entered "Records Entry Associate" for the Phrase, I expected to see results for both the singular and plural ...

Hello.....

Using Flare 10.2.2, HTML5 output, no print requirement.
I've generated an auto-index and at first thought all was good.
I then noticed I wanted to add more than one "phrase" to a single "term".
That is, I have the term "Records Entry Associate".
I want to have all topics with the phrases ...

Well.......that was easy
Thanks much for the quick response!!

Hello.....

Using Flare 10 with HTML5 output (no printing required).
I renamed the Glossary tab to Acronyms as that is what I need for my current project.
However, I can't seem to locate where I can change "Search Glossary" to "Search Acronyms".

While this isn't a huge issue, it ...

Appreciate the quick response ChoccieMuffin....

I'm meeting with a couple of Technical Writers later this week and we'll take a look at your suggestion.

Thanks much!

Hello Nita.....I'd like ask a follow up on this if I may.
Here is one row from a table that I manually applied styles to.
<tr>
<td class="tbl_bodytext">AdverseResultsDelayBizDays</td>
<td class="tbl_bodytext">Sets the number of business days to delay delivering adverse background report results. The ...

Thanks for the reply dorcutt.
I'm not up for having to manually create this.
But it does seem curious to me that a nice feature in webhelp went away with the HTML5 output.

Got quite a few reads on this.....perhaps this is something that "went away" with an HTML5 output?

All,

Please excuse this post.....I figured it out right after posting.
Seems I entered "898989" for a color instead of "#898989".
Not sure why there was an arrow when the TOC was hidden to begin with, but it's good to go now.
Guess I should try and figure it out a bit more on my own before posting ...

Hi folks....

I'm guessing this will be an easy on for you experts out there!
Specifics: Flare 10, HTML5 Output

I'm having a small issue with setting the color for the Navigation Panel Hide Arrow.
It is showing up when the TOC is "hidden", but not when the TOC is "showing".
Please refer to the ...

Hello....

I recently changed the output on a set of Release Notes from WebHelp to HTML5 (Flare 10). I noticed the TOC "alt text" feature was no longer there. While it isn't critical to this project, I have other projects with longer TOC entries. I took a quick look, but didn't find any setting ...

Symantec Endpoint Protection seems to be in use here at work.

I certainly hope I'm not jinxing myself, but I've had two days of moderate Flare usage without a crash.
Started using the suggestion from sdcinvan to use split screens for the text and XML editor.
I keep the text editor screen very small at the bottom and I don't really notice it.
I've actually ...

Thanks much for the reply.
I'm almost glad to hear someone say that v9.x was horrible for this issue!
Was starting to wonder if I had something else going on, including operator error....
I'll most likely try the split screen approach when I get back into Flare this week.
Not sure I want to flip ...

Sorry. I mentioned that in the beginning of this thread, but should have stated it again. I'm currently using Flare 9.1.2.

It's back! I went over a month without a hiccup. Had a couple of crashes yesterday and at least a half-dozen today. As before, it typically happens when I change from the Text Editor to the XML Editor. Not always, but at least 80% of the time. Not sure if I should go back to our network group and ...

Thanks for all the input on this one.
I didn't actually do anything myself.
Our IT group said they reinstalled .NET and ran a ".NET Cleaner".
Either way, perhaps I'm over the hump and don't need to save files every 5 minutes!

I've gone a couple of days without a crash.
Haven't been slamming Flare for 8 hours a day, but I've put a few hours into a project.
Here's hoping all is now good!

I had our network group take a look and they ran .Net cleaner and then reinstalled .Net Framework with the appropriate Windows updates.
We'll see what happens!

Got a new message with today's crash......
I'm guessing this further supports reinstalling .NET?

Here are the details from the Event Viewer.
Yup, you're right.....I'm not sure what I'm looking for!
I looked at a couple of crash details and they have pretty much the same info.
Upgrading to V10 is not an option at this time.

Thanks Steve....
I can't think of anything I was doing different when the crashes started.
I have not installed any new software in quite some time.
The company I work for does push Windows updates every now and then.
Nothing I can do about that.....they've got that stuff locked down pretty tight ...

Hello....I've had Flare for just over a year now and up until a month or so ago, I've had no issues. Currently using Flare 9.1.2. Over the past month, I've experience what I would call a "crash" when using the application. The program stops responding and displays the attached message. I have no ...

Ha!!!!! I actually found out how to fix my issue by browsing through the forum.
I saw an entry about pages not displaying properly and one of the responses mentioned "compatibility view".
Not knowing that this would really have any affect on my issue, I looked at my IE settings and sure enough ...
