Thank you, thats great

Hi Alex,
thanks for the idea. Unfortunatelly does it work only once to the previous and once to the next topic.
My idea was to read the entire topics by using the keyboard without mouse .

Maybe something with history.back() and history.forward() event, but I don´t know how coding this

Hi all,
is it possible to put a keyboard key on my HTML5 skin buttons?
Now I have to click on next or previous button to jump in the next or previous button.

But would be nice to use left or right cursor button as well.

Hi, from my point of view I would not make line breaks. Better creating other methods such as paragraph styles.

Hi Trent,
sorry for bothering but maybe I´m to stupid to understand

If there is no change to insert any kind of code via editor because it is not working, HOW can I insert it in the standard variable view?
Shift+Space in the standard view does not work.

But in another project it does not work. In the output no space is visible, but why?

<Variable
Name="Dev1_grille_Nr"
Comment="E-Teil"
EvaluatedDefinition="[010] frontgrille">[010]&#160;frontgrille</Variable>

... good idea not to forget the EvaluatedDefinition="SH 433>SH&#160;433



Thx a lot!

Hi Trent, we have some handmade workarounds because we are using Flare without any kind of version control like git. When making a manual release we zip the entire project. Sounds crazy - right :blaze: But it makes no sense for me to zip all the entire files, all these hundrets of files. E.g, topics...

We are often use a couple of variables, such as special disassembly / assembly tools. In the example below from one variable set we want to avoid a line break between SH and 433. After making a backup from the variable set I´d often tried what you are saying, EvaluatedDefinition="SH 433>SH &...

Hi all,
how can I set different font sizes in different outputs WITHOUT crating different conditioned bubbles?
We have one font size for capture text in PDF output and one font size for capture text in HTML output...

Hi again,
maybe an old issue but HOW can I create non-breaking-spaces in the variable sets?

In the past I'd tested it with the &#160; value. Indeed, its xml but in our manual are hundrets of variables without non-breaking spaces, not good

corrections... It works fine with svg, was a adobe illustrator problem. The other thing is to level up the java script performance

unfortunatelly it does not work with svg-files, but we will see....

perfectly GREAT - Thanks. Indeed, I´d forgotten nesting my code in CDATA tags. Now it works fine, nice

Hi all, I want to figure out how it is possible to insert magnifier code on images. It needs a bit code, but in Flare it does not work. Such as this: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_js_image_magnifier_glass When inserting some error messages appear. So have you code which i...

Hi, you can also set a condition on a TOC entry by using [F4]. Then you have conditioned the TOC entry, but not the entire topic, so your colleagues can use it in other projects. I use both: On topics for "use only in PDF" or "use only in HTML" and on TOC entries for only this pr...

thats my bookmark code inside of the target: <p> a name="M-BAR_Screw_ASS"></a> <img src="../../../Images/1_Img_ASSY_TCB_M_S/PCBs/TCB_M_Mainboard.jpg" class="B175" /> </p> and that is my xref code from the start topic <p class="TabText_LB"> <MadCap:xref href=&q...

hmmm, it does not work, then I get an empty xref link which will not be published.

Which skin type do you use, classic tripane?

How can I directly set a bookmark on a image. My ideas do not work, I can only bookmark headings.

Hi all, is there a way to excludes files and folders when I ZIP my entire Flare project. We are often make flare archives when the project is finished, e.g. for a closed release. But I need not extract all the stupid stuff such as original images or anything else. Is there a nice workaround? Thx, Ma...

Thanks for your answer and you are right. Nevertheless I need the possibility to change the condition of a variable within the variable editor. Otherwise I have to change the condition state inside of all respective topics, lot of work. Ok, maybe I have some ideas of workarounds like changing it in ...

The benefit is not clear for me. - The first workaround for nesting a variable into a conditioned snippet sounds to heavy for me. In this case I have to put hundrets of variables into separate snippets. - The second workaround has no benefit for me because Its the same work: Apply a class to my vari...

Hi Rae,
many thanks for your answer.

The second idea sounds interesting, I check this. If I understand you right: Making a variable class with mc-condition attribute, right?

Hi all, how can I define a condition for ONE variable in a variable set. The whole set works fine but not a variable inside of the variable set. Its important becaue I´ve some snippets AND variables for the next release, they should not published at the moment. Example: "Tighten the screw with ...
