FLPRJ file dates

When I create a new Flare file (project), the FLPRJ file date is the day i create it. But, if I go back a month later and change it and save it, the file date stays the same as when it was first created. Is there a way to indicate the actual date every time you save it? I use this both for saving th...

Re: Publish does not recognize destination

Thank you wclass. This is exactly what I needed. "In the target, look on the Publishing Tab, and select one of your destinations." And yes, it was different in previous version and I think that's why I missed it. Submit requests to MAdCap here: https://www.madcapsoftware.com/feedback/featu...

Re: Publish does not recognize destination

It actually looks like it published the html files. At least I see them in the "Output > Content" folders. But still not sure if it actually published correctly to the Destination I saved.

Publish does not recognize destination

I recently updated to Flare v11. And now when I have a project and go to Publish (html), it says "there is no destination". But when I go into Destinations and select one and save it, it doesn't seem to recognize that. So it never publishes because it doesn't have a destination. I used Fla...

Flare changes PNG to JPG in html output.

I use Flare to convert FrameMaker files to Webhelp html. All of the graphics in FrameMaker are PNG, and are in frames. Most of them have a text callout with them. But when Flare converts them, it changes many of them to JPG. It flattens the graphic and text callout like it should, but it changes the...

Re: How to Hide Markers?

I had tried turning off markers and nothing happened. I don't even know what a <Span> is, but i guess if it's there and empty and should be deleted, I can do that.
Thanks!
