Re: Default Togglers to Expanded on Page Load
I'm very curious to know what scenarios demand these links being expanded by default. The purpose of these links is to make the topics more compact, and the body of the link content should be optional/obvious to some and only those interested should bother to expand them. Won't expanding them by def...

Re: Non-publishing markup, formatting, or highlighting?
I don't think you can do this. But maybe first, you should re-think what you really want to achieve. It's not normal to show every internal note in the final output. So maybe what you really want to achieve, is to conditionally show/hide those notes instead of showing them with different styles. For...

Hi Elizabeth,
Have you found a workaround for this? I also have this problem.

Re: Prettify not prettifying
I end up using Prism for the same purpose, so ignore my previous post unless you want to provide the answer that you already know. Prism is easier to configure IMO. Now, one more question :P : anybody has implemented a Copy Code/Select All control, so that the user can click to copy the code to the ...

Re: Prettify not prettifying
I use prettyprint, but the steps in that blog post don't match the instructions in the prettyprint documentation . Perhaps the blog is out of date - you now use a different js file, and you don't need the transparent image or the link to the CSS file. All you need to do is include the code below in...

Re: HTML5 CSH header file
Thanks Nita. Since our Flare project is bound to source control (we use TFS), in the same repository as the APP, I think we can have the APP create/maintain the header file in the Advanced folder of the Flare Project folder. The APP has access to all the directories in TFS. This is the automatic sol...

Re: Span tags in menu proxies
am I adding it to my main stylesheet or the stylesheet in the skin code? Add it in the main stylesheet. There's no separate stylesheet for the skin. The skin code only specifies a selector used to control the styling of the menu item in the side menu, and you should include that selector in your ma...

Exclude glossary from targets
Hi, If my project contains a glossary file, the glossary will be available on every new (HTML5?) target (Glossary tab) that I create. This is extremely annoying as this adds unnecessary burdens to several areas: now it's longer to build a very simple target because the build process always parses th...

Re: HTML5 CSH header file
So when the app makes a CSH call, it generates the identifier from the form's unique name/path; e.g. MyApp_FeatureArea_FormName It's then my job to add all those identifiers to my Flare alias file, and map them to appropriate topics. ... the developer could make this job easier by writing an app th...

Re: Span tags in menu proxies
@jjw, what is your added .pdf style a subclass of? Can you supply more detail about that? I get the principle behind this, just not sure where to do each of these things. @arkana, what version of Flare are you using? And what target type and skin type? I'm using the latest (Flare 2019) and there is...

Re: Span tags in menu proxies
Thanks Joe (and brigitte) for the great tip. I used your technique to achieve what I need and it's working perfectly. Two minor things: 1) in your code, the opening and ending tag doesn't match (styles vs. style). 2) I think you can just add one selector instead of three and you can apply the same s...

Re: Supporting Customer Extension of Help
Correct about copying a template HTML file (which I provide and keep up-to-date in terms of format) to a specified folder. Not about the alias. I've done that ahead, setting aside 100 ID values. Those match a set of designated file names in the target folder. You'll have to have those files when yo...

What I do is pretty basic. Won't get me invited to speak at MadWorld anytime soon. :roll: My solution allows a user to create topics that they can open with an F1 press from within our program. That works because our program is used for application development and it's easy to add a line of code to...
