Fair enough. I wish they would support it though because the integration between the images and the software is excellent. It's so easy to update images without needing to search for where they are. It's sad if they are letting it go. I do have access to so many other image software tools, including...

For two years my output has been in English. Now, I need to output in French as well. Once I added the second language to the target, and pointed it to a Lingo project, the output was put into sub-folders. For example: English only project exported into \\mycompanyfiles\default.htm... Now with two l...

What is your solution for bullets in text boxes in Capture? I can't find them anywhere, so I can only assume it's not possible. Using a dash before each line doesn't give me a very good alignment (no hanging indent), and forcing a return and pressing the space key doesn't align the "hanging&quo...

Can you believe it's 2021 and we still have to do this workaround? Thanks for posting. I discovered this in Flare Help (Features > Movies > About Movies): MULTIMEDIA NOT WORKING? Due to issues with Windows Media, these files will not work in the compiled output if the link from the topic to the medi...

While we want to use the Task board in Central to manage our work, we also have managers who want reports on the progress of that work. Are we able to export reports (or even a spreadsheet) of our task status from Central? I can't see any features for doing that, but I wondered if I'm missing someth...

I've been connecting all of COVID using VPN and I've had no problems connecting to Central. Perhaps it's been resolved?

Hi there. When I asked this question to our translation team, they responded:

MultiCorpora is the original company who created the tool Multitrans – they were bought by SDL.

I have MultiTrans.

Do you publish your content directly into Sharepoint Online native pages? Does anyone view that content on a mobile device? Then I'm very interested in chatting with you! Here's my issue: When I publish my responsive Flare TopNav output to our server, it's easily viewed on a mobile phone. However, ...

Well Dave, sometimes the simplest solutions are the best solutions! Thank you. While we do link to sites, this one in particular was published to Sharepoint to enable the content to be searchable within Sharepoint. However, when I looked at my body tag, I realized I hadn't provided a background colo...

Or.... alternatively to the above, does anyone know the code we could use in our projects that would prevent someone from being able to switch the theme? I'm currently experimenting along this lines (background-color: #ffffff !important;) but am looking for all suggestions.

I'm being asked to create a translation bundle from Lingo for the MultiTrans translation tool. Has anyone had experience providing files for this tool who is willing to provide some advice?

We're investigating publishing our content to Sharepoint online to be viewed in Teams. The issue I've found is that you can change your view to a Light Theme or a Dark Theme in Teams, which is something I didn't design for. Now, some of my content is invisible. Any advice for how to design our sites...

Thank you for this. I'm just seeing it now. I'll check it out

Hello, In a similar position here at our company. Wanted to check in to see if you have an update parsonv? Have you folks made any progress? Please share. Thanks much! ed Hi Ed We learned that there's no software that does both: allows for ratings and provides a way for users to submit feedback (an...

I'm looking for advice. For the past two years, I've been implementing Flare at our organization, which has over 10,000 employees. I've been helping to set up sites within different business units, and training folks within those business units to help maintain the content. We do not have a central ...

Thanks for the reply. We have analytics. I'm looking at a way for interaction by the end user vs. just page analytics (which we also use and is quite useful in its own right). An update: For capturing user feedback to help us sustain the content, we are currently using Hotjar (as we had it in-house)...

Did you resolve this? I'm looking at the same problem.

I'm looking for a plug-in that will do the following: 1) Allow users to rate a topic. After the user rates the topic, the rating is then added to the other ratings and the topic will show the average number of stars its been rated. I don't want a list of user names and what they rated the topic. I j...

While this would be a nice thing for MadCap to add (the ability to assign one TOC with the menu bar and another with the Breadcrumbs), it's currently not possible. However, this fantastic workaround solved my problem. Thought I'd share. https://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1160...

Thanks! I found the check box for IE variable compatibility in the target settings.

Is there any way to identify a different TOC for the Menu (top nav) than the breadcrumbs is using? I want to arrange the TOC so that the breadcrumbs show the first page as Home and people click it to go back to the main page. But, I don't want Home to appear as a menu item in my Top Nav. Any ideas? ...

When I apply color formatting as variables in my CSS, the output displays perfectly in Chrome but the variables don't apply at all in IE.

Does anyone know if variables are incompatible with IE. And, if so, if there's a workaround?

Any way to make the bullets that appear under slideshows to display text when you hover over them? I saw that you can add captions to the slideshow output, but that text appears within the slideshow itself and not down by my bullets, which is where I'd rather have the text appear. This might be beca...

I'm sure I'm just missing something here, but I can't seem to find a solution for printed PDF targets and hyperlinks. The issue is that some topics have hyperlinks within the page to other topics in the help, and sometimes the hyperlink is actually to a location on our network. While the general out...

I'm playing with Concept links. What I've noticed is that the related concepts list will show all the topics associated with the concept, including the page you're currently on if it's part of the list. I was expecting the current page to be excluded as that's just an annoying loop for the end user....
