Conditional links in same output?

One of the things that appealed to me about Flare was the fact that I could do conditional links - I'm using it to build an implementation methodology, and want to have people able to drill down from a common, high-level view to the details for their own roles, without having to wade through what ...

Split A Project?

I have a hunch this should be simple, but I haven't been able to find the answer, so...

Re: How does Flare support DITA?

Re: Graphic-Based Navigation?

Thanks, guys - I am certainly more interested in managing the links in Flare, rather than using ImageReady or something to do that. If the conditional links are possible from within the hotspots, that puts me quite a ways ahead. Creating duplicate images would be a bit of a nightmare - I'd rather ...

Graphic-Based Navigation?

Hi all - I'm investigating potential tools to use to build/reinforce my company's best practices and methodologies, and have focused my search primarily on Flare (seems like they've put a lot of thought into workflow enhancement) Robohelp (because I'm familiar with other Adobe products) and Eclipse ...
