hi,

I only ever translate part of a project. I dynamically filter the Lingo project (in project properties) by Targets and include the Targets pointing to the TOCs I want translated. Once you do this only the topics included in the selected targets are included.

Is that what you mean?

On point 1 we haven't upgraded but I've been having the same issue. Turning the fuzzy match % right down seems to fix it for some reason even if the matches were already above the threshold. Might be worth a try?

hi, I've got a couple of Word files in Lingo that are 2/3 translated by TM. But because there's no way to only export the untranslated segments from each file it doesn't cost any less to translate because the translation software used by our agency still counts all of those words as needing translat...

hi, I'm having an issue with some images not displaying intermittently. I'm publishing PDF output from a translated Flare project (exported from Lingo). A topic contains a table with four images and sometimes these are not displayed in the output at all, sometimes one or two of them are displayed, a...

hi, I've got a Word file which was been previously translated and I have the TMX file from this translation. I've since done some updates and want to manage the translation of these through Lingo. But when I import the Word document and apply the translation memory about 5% of the segments don't fin...

Thanks guys. One bundle not merging was due to a folder missing the file structure. The other one did merge after I sent the issue onto Madcap Support which was strange but solved the issue.

hi, I've got a set of word files in Lingo with a TMX applied to them which translates 676 segments/4273 words. They show as confirmed in Lingo but are still included in the XLF and word count for translation when we send the XLF bundle to the translation agency. So we don't see any reduction in the ...

I've got two bundles that have been returned by our translation agency and one merges and the other one doesn't. They both have the same file structure but with one I get the following log messages: <LogEntry File="../Target/Content/TechDocs/Current Projects/11700650_Mogyi/AST/Operation/Operato...

hi, Any developers of training material here? I've recently moved our docs over to Madcap and Capture. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do when we develop training. Currently it's Powerpoint for classroom based training which involves a whole lot of copying and pasting and we can't leverage any ...

I've already had a support case open for two days - I'm getting desperate because I've got work to do and it's pretty much impossible currently. I've just had support repair my Flare installation per Madcap supports request so we'll see if that helps.

I've turned the Autosuggest options off on advice somewhere else. My project is 289MB, 2500 files so not big. Nita - thank you. Your suggestion works but only for a little while and then I have to repeat the steps (three times so far today and I've been here for two hours). So something must be corr...

hi, My Flare has started running so slowly it's basically unusable - lags on typing and using the mouse. I'm running 2017r2 on Windows 10 and it's always been fine up until now. The CPU usage of Flare sits between 7 and 15% even when it's not being used. I've deleted the output folder, moved my proj...

hi, I'm after some clarification on how variables are translated when using Lingo. In Lingo what I see to be translated is the flvar file which has the default setting for the variable not what's been set on the targets I'm translating. I contacted support and they indicated I need to include any de...

Solved it with some help - I had the mc-heading-level set on the madcap-tocProxy style. It needed to be clear.

That works thank you but when I select the 'Use TOC depth for heading level' option on the target, the generated TOC doesn't display in the print output at all? I don't understand why these are related.

hi, I've been going round in circles for a couple of hours. Basically, I have topic containing the TOC proxy for the PDF output: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <html xmlns:MadCap="http://www.madcapsoftware.com/Schemas/MadCap.xsd" MadCap:lastBlockDepth="2&qu...

Thanks - support solved it for me - it was easy after all. Changed the repeat from 98 rows to 1 row - the separator was only repeated every 98 rows. I thought it would repeat after each row not the entire pattern.

Thanks. We're only producing print output at this stage so that's what our default medium is set to. I did try changing it to print to see if that changed anything but still have the same problem. My table is printing as shown in the attached file so most of the borders are displaying but not the ro...

hi, I've created a table style and have the separators set on all the columns and rows but they are only displaying on the header rows and columns (ie, not between the body rows). As far as I can tell the header row style and body row style are the same in regards to have the separators set so I'm c...

hi, I'm new to Flare and trying to sort out my print TOC. I want to use the 'Use TOC Depth for Heading Levels' setting so we can move content around without having to worry about changing the heading style in topics. But when I select that for the target, the print TOC displays no entries. It displa...

hi, Currently in Word we manually insert section headings in the word TOC after the TOC has been generated. For example: Notices----------------------------------------1 Copyright etc Notices appears in the print TOC but doesn't correspond to a topic or appear in the document itself (Copyright is th...

I'm very new to Flare but I understood it was the heading level applied that controlled it's display in the Print TOC - not whether it is it's own topic or level of indentation in the Flare TOC. That is, a heading 3 displays as a heading 3 in the Print TOC regardless of whether it's the start of a n...

Thanks Nita. I'm going to get your brochure from the Slack channel and have a play this week (public holiday here yesterday )

I've had this same question too. I notice it mostly when I want to insert paragraph text under a list. I've been doing it via the text editor as well. Likewise for inserting lists. Nice to know it's not just me

Thanks. I'm going to start with that option and see how we go over time. It'll just be me initially so it won't be too much overhead to change processes if needed down the track.
