Thanks Dave, you are absolutely correct, there is a position: fixed in the MadCap|breadcrumbsProxy CSS, good catch. I put it there so the breadcrumb would remain visible as the page is scrolled down. That makes more sense, and it's why I asked in my first post if there were "CSS settings that ...

Thanks Dave, you are absolutely correct, there is a position: fixed in the MadCap|breadcrumbsProxy CSS, good catch. I put it there so the breadcrumb would remain visible as the page is scrolled down. Here is the complete CSS for the breadcrumb class and the breadcrumb proxy. .breadcrumb { background...

I finally figured out that I need to take into account the width of the Side Navigation window in the total width of the window. The Side Nav window is set to a width of 20%, so my calculation for the width of the breadcrumb element needs to be: width: calc(80% - 15px); The 15px is the width of the ...

The full CSS for .breadcrumb: .breadcrumb { background-color: #D5D5D5; color: #24334D; display: block; padding: 6pt; width: calc(100% - 16px); } And here is hopefully enough relevant HTML from the associated Master Page: <MadCap:breadcrumbsProxy class="breadcrumb" /> <p style="positio...

Despite the lack of information, you got the solution exactly correct, Dave. Thanks! The only remaining problem is that the calculation appears to be applied only after the browser window is minimized to below the Tablet Breakpoint size as specified in the Target > Skin tab. I am not as familiar wit...

I want my breadcrumb box, with a gray background, to extend across the entire with of the page. I can do that (width: 100%;), but I can't get it to not cover the top of the scroll bar. How do I make sure the vertical scroll bar is on top of the breadcrumb block? Setting a specific width or percentag...

How do I keep this from happening, where a security key (sometimes) overflows the boundary of the Code Snippet box:

Thanks.

Excellent, Dave, thanks a lot, I'll give that a try.

Edit: Tried Dave's suggestion, works just as expected.

In Side Nav output, I'd like the main body text to take up less than the full width of the screen. I can do this on the topic level by putting everything inside the <body> tags in a <div> and assigning a width, e.g., style="width: 65%;" to the <div>. I'd rather not have to go through every...

rjplano

You may be right that I may be making this more complicated and I'll take your suggestions under advisement. The Track Changes capability in Flare does not come close to doing what I need. I need added text to be green and underlined and deleted text to be red with a line-through. I sometimes need t...

rjplano

Here's the situation. I have a PDF document that goes through several iterations. Additions and deletions between versions are marked as green underlined text and red line-through text, respectively, typically using spans or paragraph styles. What I would like to do for the final 'clean' version is ...

Is there a way to make a ® appear positioned correctly in a cross reference? The ® is correctly superscripted in the referenced paragraph text but in the cross reference link text it is on the text baseline. Choosing a different font is not an option.
Thanks.

Oh wait, it just occurred to me that the line height will control the space between individual lines in the same block (i.e. when the one li runs over several lines). You probably actually want to increase the margin or padding around the li - have you given that a go yet? I had tried modifying the...

Good question. To clarify, I am applying it to the li selector itself, not the ::marker selector.

rjplano

I'm using the ::marker selector to place a specific bullet in front of my unordered list items. I want the bullet to be a bit larger so I set a larger font size there. ul > li::marker { content: '\2022'; font-size: 2em; } Unfortunately, this messes up the line spacing between the list elements as co...

As noted, I tried locating the @media section at both the top and bottom of the style sheet, same results in both locations. It is a fairly complex style sheet, with four different mediums included. What's also odd is that I can control the top position of the breadcrumbs proxy just fine with the sa...

rjplano

Anyone know why the position and top parameters I set up in a @media inquiry are being ignored by browsers while things like background and border work just fine? media inquiry.png The p.returnTo_DD class appears in the style sheet in only two places; where it's first declared and then in the @media...

rjplano

Thanks Dave! I'll give that a try, see if it solves all my border issues.

rjplano

And ignore that last problem, where the border is added to the cell when cell goes across a page break. I just realized what the "Hide bottom ruling when table crosses a page break:" setting in the Table Properties does.

rjplano

Thanks, Dave, that's a pretty cool solution. I gave it a try and unfortunately it doesn't quite work in my situation. First, I have tables inside the main table and the CSS puts puts borders on the (in my case) second column of the enclosed tables as well. I can probably fix that with a bit more CSS...

rjplano

Thanks for the suggestion but the column separators are vertical, not horizontal, so they separate one column from another, not the rows in a single column.

rjplano

I have a PDF output document that contains a two-column table. I want borders between the rows in the second column, but not the first. Right now I'm applying a td style to the cells in the second column that specify the border parameters. This works OK but it would be nice if it was more automatic....

I have a multi-chapter PDF document. In one of the chapters I have a page layout break to switch to landscape orientation. I want the title of the chapter (an h1 style) appear in the header. Putting the Heading.Level1 variable in the header works fine for the pages preceding the page layout break, b...

Next update. The problem is that I want the image in a table that is inside another table. If I apply "position: relative;" to the table caption (a plain <p> tag), which is outside of the nested table, then the image position can be controlled with "position: absolute;". Not a gr...
