Re: Left & right padding not taking effect in HTML5 mobile v

Did you ever get this sorted out? I'm having a completely different issue that I think might be caused by whatever was causing your issue.

Re: Home Page Dropdowns Different Color in Side Navigation

Update to this problem: I have been working to get my HTML5 output working on mobile (specifically, Android S9), and I have mostly been having success. But this issue with the dropdowns on the home page has come back...but only on my test device and Flare's Smartphone emulator, not on my computer. W...

Re: Topic pop-ups and the TopNav skin

I figured it out.

I had put that script in the header because the only other script I'd ever used went in the header. I decided to move it to after the body proxy to see what would happen, and that resolved the issue. Just a note for the next person who stumbles into this issue.

Re: Topic pop-ups and the TopNav skin

Thanks for this. It's working for to provide me the popups, but I'm still seeing the frame. I don't suppose you've tried this again since the latest update to see if it still works as expected or if I'm just doing something wrong?

I don't understand why MadCap wouldn't support popups in those skins.

Re: Home Page Dropdowns Different Color in Side Navigation

Nope. That was one of the first things I checked. I actually got this fixed a few minutes ago, but I'm not sure why. I was reviewing my build-log, and I noticed that I was getting a message that it was outside of the project. That seemed weird to me, so I checked, and my output was getting generated...

Home Page Dropdowns Different Color in Side Navigation

Having a bit of a weird issue here. In my HTML output, in the Home Page and only the Home Page, the Colors of my Dropdowns have changed to look like H1 headings. I have the same dropdowns (literally the same; they are snippets) in a different part of the project, and they look fine. The only place w...

Re: TOC depth level issue

I know I'm waking up a very old thread, but this is a problem. What if I want to use the same topic on different outputs, and in one topic I want to have my TOC show four levels and on the other I want it to show two levels. I could create a new medium I guess, but do I really want to create a whole...

Re: No bullets

My solution is a terrible one. I put each bulleted item into it's own text box, use the insert image feature to put in bullet next to it, and align the individual boxes. I have to admit that I am very frustrating with MadCap about their capture software because it has SO MUCH potential (for instanc...

Re: building PDF fails

You can usually fix this by opening task manager and killing acrobat. If that doesn't work, the nuclear option is to restart your machine.

Re: Multiple references to single footnote

Sometimes it blows my mind when I come here looking for a solution, only to find that it has been a known issue for over a decade and hasn't been fixed yet.

Re: List Of proxy not generating tables and images

Nine years later, I'd be thrilled if someone would answer this question. I have set up my entire project with <figure> and <figcaption> tags, and imagine my chagrin when I go to make a Table of Figures, and neither of these tags are available in the dropdown. I have hundreds of figures. I don't reli...

Re: Borders around Objects in Capture Images

Hi Eric,

Thanks for getting back with me. What I'm trying to do is a little bit more complex. I want to have a border around individual objects within the file and no border around the file itself. I haven't been able to figure out how to do this other than by faking it with a separate rectangle.

Borders around Objects in Capture Images

I am building a slide deck in flare, based on material in my user manual, and I have taken to placing multiple images from the manual into one larger image as objects using Capture. This has allowed for some pretty nice results, especially considering that you can apply conditions to objects within ...
