Re: How can I change where Flare stores graphics?

Yeah, I could try and conform the way I'd like to work with the way Flare decides I should have to work, but it makes more sense that Flare would allow users to define their folder structure according to the way it works best for them. So I would log an enhancement request for this, but... (see belo...

Re: How can I change where Flare stores graphics?

OK, thanks for the info.

Making graphics with tooltips more helpful for the user

I am working on a Web Help project in which I am adding screen shots to Help topics. I have begun to use Flare's Image Map feature to define areas within a screenshot where I want to point out and provide a tooltip on what this or that does or how to use it. In the editor screen where you define the...
