Thanks for your response. I've tracked it down to the styles.css file, after swapping master pages and the stylesheet between two projects. With the stylesheet of another project the contained text shows up, both in the other project and in the "broken" project. However, I'm still not able...

Hi, I'm currently editing Page Layouts in a project, and I cannot get the content of footer frames (or header frames for that matter) to show up on the respective page. I've done the same thing in other projects where everything works as expected, i.e. I'm able to use the "Select Frame Text…&qu...

Also, in the skin take a look at the Global section, expand Size and make sure you don't have a setting in there that you're not happy with. That's what I've used on my Sidenav output, but it may depend on which flavour of HTML5 your output is. Thanks for the additional hint, yes, there's another &...

To answer my own question here:

It was hidden in the styles.css, as a property (max.width) of the "body" element. The creator of the file I've been working on had defined an absolute width in cm. Which doesn't make sense for HTML output…

Hi all, I'm doing my first steps with HTML5 output (until now only PDF/Print), and have a question regarding the skin templates downloadable from the MadCap website: https://www.madcapsoftware.com/downloads/flare-html5-skins.aspx If, when looking at the finished HTML file in a browser, the main cont...

Thanks, but I'm not that kind of expert, at least I haven't found anything in the registry yet where changing it fixed the problem. I've already restored the setting to always use the latest version of FM (2015) for opening *.fm files (which was also changed to use FM11), but this didn't solve the p...

Hi all, I've been using Flare (2017) together with FrameMaker 2015 on a PC without problems so far. Recently I've also installed an earlier version of FrameMaker (11) on the same PC (required for a customer), and now I only get an error message from Flare when trying to set up a new FrameMaker impor...

OK, I will learn more about XHTML :) The basic idea of structured content (and even XML as used with FrameMaker) is somewhat clear, however, I simply didn't know that a "li" item may contain other items. I will check the (inherited) stylesheets for settings related to the numbering of UL l...

What you are showing is two separate numbered lists with other content between them. This looks like a case where the second list has had its start number set to 3, which is typical of material imported from Word or the like where there was no concept of having anything more than a single paragraph...

Hi all, I'm just facing a strange problem: I've got a numbered list, interrupted by a short bullet list (UL). However, when I set the numbered list entry below the bullet list to "continue", it counts the bullet list paragraphs (currently 2) and continues with "3" instead of &quo...

Hi, bumping this old question, because this still happens with the latest version of Flare 2017 on import of a FrameMaker file. Trying to move FrameMaker documents in 30 languages over to Flare, so manually re-linking all these images to a single instance is not an option. How to solve it? And while...
