Re: Change background colour on top nav sub-menu

I can answer my own question! I discovered the relevant setting in the 'HTML5-Top Nav' skin: Styles tab > Top Navigation > Top Navigation Menu > 1st Level > Background.

I swear I had already checked there previously but obviously not. Doh!

Change background colour on top nav sub-menu

Hi all,
I'm experimenting with the HTML5 Top Nav skin after not having used it on a project for a few years. I've followed the steps in MadCap's 2018 'Top Navigation' user guide. All is fine.

What I can't work out (and I've searched this forum a lot) is how to change the background colour on the ...

Side navigation TOC behaviour inconsistent

Hi everyone,

I'm running Flare 2018 and am currently experimenting with the new HTML5 side navigation skin. My problem relates to differences I'm seeing in the side navigation TOC in the HTML5 output:

-- For the Web medium, the TOC entries all display as expected. And clicking a bold Level 1 'book ...

Re: Control the width of the navigation pane for tablet outp

Thanks, Dave. I missed that post when searching for a solution. I've followed your steps and the navigation panel width is now under control. Fantastic solution, much appreciated!

Control the width of the navigation pane for tablet output

Hi all,
I'm editing a HTML5 tripane skin in Flare 2017 r3. I know how to control the width of the navigation panel for Web output (i.e. on the skin's Setup tab) but I can't find a similar setting for Tablet view.

When I view my output in a browser, resize the screen so the output behaves ...

Re: Excluded files appearing in target

I know this is an old topic but I'm just posting this in case it helps anyone.

I've just had a similar problem this week (and I managed to fix it): One of my HTML5 outputs that should only have had about 20 'Academic' topics now had hundreds of supposedly excluded 'Admin' topics in the output ...

Re: Too much space above dropdowns - image space issue

Thanks both Dave and Paul. Excellent advice.

I've inherited this Flare project and that's how the <img> style had been set up. I've been busy working on phasing out the values assigned to it (and phasing out a load of other img classes that aren't needed) and then applying a new/better set of image ...

Too much space above dropdowns - image space issue

I'm hoping someone can help with a space issue with dropdowns. (I'm running Flare 12, BTW).
My dropdowns use two small arrow images - for open and close. The CSS for the drop down is:

MadCap|dropDown
{
margin-bottom: 6px;
margin-top: 0px;
mc-closed-image: url('../Images/_icons-general ...

This information may help you perhaps:
Over the last few weeks I've been trying to develop a page layout that works with my Word output. However, no matter what I tried, First Right, Title and Empty Left just did not seem to work. After logging a support call last week I was informed by Madcap ...
