You don't understand my question? It sounded pretty straightforward, and it sounds like you did understand it, since you responded.

None of those options worked. I'll have to open a ticket. Thanks!

Hello. Hi. I have a question, but first, allow me to present the scenario. We are finalizing a software help file. All of the topics are completed. The welcome page contains a logo in the upper left corner. Clicking on the link should send the reader to our company website, but it goes to a broken p...

I'm getting the same error, and there are no solutions. Opening a ticket with Flare.

This Kb article will fix it.

In Flare 2022, you can click the "windows" tab and then click "Reset Layout." No need to call support

So if it's "breaking the build", are you getting a build error? Just I wouldn't expect an undefined condition to stop a build completing. If you've definitely removed the undefined conditions from your project, then it's probably just a corrupt Analyzer database. Close the project and del...

Hello I know this has been addressed before in the forums, but I'm not finding a solution. There are undefined condition tags that refused to go away. I've run the analysis, and the conditions are still appearing in several targets. Not a single target is including the conditions. I've analyzed the ...

I have analyzed the TOC, but only to the extent of reviewing the properties of what are potentially the topics preceding and following the "ghost." The "ghost" should not be there. All other topics should. Nothing appears to be out of the ordinary. I'll continue to research. EDIT...

I'm not sure which are the "ghost" entries, or whether those entries are actual topics in your project, or if perhaps they are headings within a topic. If they are actual topics, is it possible you're being affected by the setting in your PDF target > Advanced tab > "Inject headings ...

Hello! After architecting a project TOC and creating an Output Target, there are a few "Ghost" entries that are haunting the project TOC after I build the project to a PDF output. I know that there's a rational, reasonable explanation for this (namely, User Error), but what causes this, an...

Never mind. We are having problems with our version of Flare. Please disregard this message.

Now it's not working. I reset as above, and now it's not working.

Every. Single. Time. It's a something different with this problem, and it's a different problem again and again and again. I don't know why we need to be programmers to be able to these idiotic issues.

Have any topics between Ch1 and Ch 2 (Ch3 in the printed output) mistakenly acquired a chapter break with increment? It's easily done with a unwitting multiple selection in the flare TOC when changing properties - done it myself a few times. Try expanding all in the TOC, selecting all the entries b...

Hi Nita

They are both set to "Increment."

Hello I cannot figure this one out. I have a TOC with three chapters. All of the properties of the chapters are exactly the same in printed output: Break Type: Chapter Break Page Layout: (our style...every chapter has the exact same style) Page type: First The printed output (PDF) skips Chapter 2, s...

How do I adjust a column width in a table using the XML editor? I've tried clicking the column and changing the px or % values, but nothing happens. No cells are merged. I am not touching the text editor, because I don't want to break the table. Also, I don't want to change the table style. Just one...

Question in the subject. How Do I Save an Existing Table Style as a New Table?

Hi there, You could try adding the code for a non-breaking hyphen into the variable manually and see if that fixes your issue. To do this: Right click on the variable set and select Open With Internal Text Editor . Replace the existing hyphens with ‑ Save your changes. Build your output and test. E...

More specifically, we want non-breaking hyphens in variables. Posting here in case I can't find something in the forums (so far, no luck).

Hello I realize this is a topic that has already been discussed, but I can't seem to find an answer that works. I'm trying to remove hyphenation properties from styles, as they are appearing in PDF outputs. I tried using the inline method (selecting the paragraph, clicking the paragraph group and se...

I'm trying to modify the content in each cell of a column so it vertically aligns with the the content of the cell above and below it. So far, no luck.

Hello I assume this is a topic that has been posted numerous times, but the answers don't quite seem to apply to my situation, or I'm just really bad at finding the answer. I created a table with several rows and several columns (hence, a table). How do I align the row content so that aligns by colu...

Thank you. That fixed it.

1) Right click properties
2) Auto Numbers tab, reset Chapter Number to A and set the format as ALPHA.
3) Save

Thanks again!

Hello Our documentation has typical appendix chapters that begin with "Appendix A," Appendix B" and Appendix C." How to I change the properties of the page so that those appendices appear with those chapter title types in the PDF output? Here's what I've tried so far, and it does...
