Hello all, I'm looking for someone to join my team. I work on documentation related to remote patient monitoring software (online help, release notes, and guides). If you have experience with Flare, please apply or pass on the link to anyone looking. We are a growing company and looking to hire some...

I'd like to set up the top navigation menu to expand within the same menu rather than off to the left or right side. Can this be done with some custom java, and does anyone have experience making this work? I found a way to do this with the menu proxy by adding java to the master page (from code pos...

As a workaround, I added a previously compiled Movies folder into my source Content folder. I linked up the files as hyperlinks to the compiled movies .html file. This allowed me to have all my movies back and keep them in flash. I wish I didn't have to do all this work to fix something that worked ...

I recently upgraded to the new version of mimic and now my flash movies won't compile. I tried to delete the new version and go back to 6, and the issue continues. I have compiled using flash for many years with these same movies, and I have never seen this error before. Does anyone have any ideas a...

I am fixing some broken links in my project using Project Analysis, but I can't fix the links that are associated to an old stylesheet. I've tried to change the stylesheet in the properties, but the option is grayed out. I've also tried changing my Primary target in order to make the stylesheet list...

I sent in new help files to our developers recently. They are complaining about errors in the background processing due to missing image files for the skin. The webhelp appears perfectly on the servers, but there are errors in the background. When I checked these images files, I saw that none of the...

I am having the same type of problem with SharePoint Integration. When I try to open the files in the SharePoint Explorer, it tells me to convert them to XML. This is strange because they were Flare files when I uploaded them to SharePoint, but now Flare doesn't recognize them? When I try to check o...

My webhelp files will not load correctly in the FireFox 4 browser. The developer that I am working with thinks this is due to the utf-8 encoding. Here is an example of the extra characters that are appearing: ÄÂ»Å¼ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www....

So, here's the issue... Any of the screens that don't have a continue button to automatically force the movie to advance will pause. In the Frame Properties menu, I have the Pause movie at end of frame box unchecked. It works correctly when I preview it in the application, and as soon as I compile i...

I downloaded Lingo today to use the trial and see if it works for me. I have a help system that is translated into six languages already, and I want to compare to the English version. I opened Lingo, and then I used the Align project wizard to browse to my English version as source and my Spanish ve...

I upgraded to 4.0, but when I send files to the developers to upload to GUIs (webhelp), they say that the XML is different, and they need the old version of the help. So, I have to compile each time using Flare 3.1. This leads me to believe that everytime I update my version of Flare that it will no...

My bubbles have a strange highlighting effect that looks horrible. I chose the gradient color and it looks fine in the bubbles, but the text in the bubble is highlighted in whatever color I choose. Is there a way to turn this off, or is this a bug in the software?

When I compile the webhelp, the index and search will not load! I click the Index tab once, and it appears to be loading. Then there is a yellow caution sign at the bottom of the web broswer. If I click the Index tab again, an index entry called "null" appears. But doesn't do anything when...

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a284/Alicialele/files.jpg The mimov file is the old file that I worked on yesterday morning. I renamed to the same thing, but it appears that the only file that has my changes is the mimovf file. Look at the times. I guess I will have to redo my project. Just is a ...

I have the trial version of Mimic, and I am presenting the tutorial that I made to several groups in my company to try to buy the full version. However, I cannot present to anyone else without a correction to the Javascript output problems. Can I get on the beta without have the full version? If not...

Yes, that worked...Thanks!
