Hi,

I have a small Index in my web help and I don't want to use the search field within the Index box. What's the best way to remove the search in the index area (not the search box in the search area) ?

Cheers.

Hi everybody,

I have a WebHelp project. When I open the generated online help file (the start htm-File) I see the online help leaving a 10MB footprint in my PC memory (I am using Process Explorer).

When I navigate the TOC I realize, there is no page loading going on (within the frameset).
I think ...

That makes sense

Ah, ok.
Thanx.

Hi,

somehow I allways thought a page *must be* linked to from the TOC, to be part of all published pages.
Now I discovered by accident that pages that exist, but are not linked to from the TOC still get published as MyWebHelp and *can be* accessed through Search..

Do I have to conditional tag ...

Ah, it's Skins > Basic > Caption...

First it didn't work, but now it's ok.
THx.

Hi,

I know it's somewhere out there, but I can't find it right now.
How do I change the title of the browser in which WebHelp opens?

Cheers.

>Is there some particular reason why you have to show page x of y in your document? Why not just have page x?

Hm.... good point. I will simply do "page x".
Cheers

Plz, how do I tell a Page/Topic that it shell not be counted in the PageCount ?

Hi,

how do I generate a Word output with embeded Images?
As soon as I move the Word doc to another folder, I tend to loose all the included Images.

Cheers.

Hi,

I have 2 index pages with a roman numbering style and then my main doc starts again from 1 (latin) counting upwords.
The last page says something like "Page 20 from 22" - though it's the last page. Obviously Flare is counting the roman numbered indesx pages, too.

What I need, would be ...

If you simply exchange the Flare Logo with your own but don't want it to link to anything
simply put "void 0;" into the script part of OnClick (or "return false;" - which does basically the same).

Excellent. Thx

Hi,

is there a way to mark two paragraphs or other "stuff" not to break on page breaks?
Let's say I have paragraph A and following paragraph B. In a print layout I want them to be ALWAYS on the same page.

Thx.
Jan

AH, ok. Thanks

Hi,

what's the easiest was to insert an image and give it a caption/legend?

thx.

Propeller Heads? - I like that :-)

yea, I agree with what you say. That's how I think it should work... I just don't know how to do it.

When I try to do a link, I can link to:
- Place in Document
- Doc currentyl open
- File in current folder
- Recent file
- Topic in project
- External topic ...

Friends ,

what's the best way to link to a local PDF?
I know, I can link to a website and I can link to topics, but I want to have a relative link to a PDF file. Lying somewhere in the Flare output file structure.

Cheers,
Jan

Wow - can't believe I found it
=> it's the MadCap / miniTocProxy poperty.

Hi,

do I understand it right, there is *no way* to modify styles concerning div.MCMiniTocBox inside FLare (4.1) ? (???)
Do I really have to go into MadCap.css and work in there?

(What I wanna do: I want to remove padding-left:20px from div.MCMiniTocBox)

Cheers,
Jan

thx

Hi everyone,

how do I access the style of the AccordionTitle? I know where it is in Skins (but there I can only access font and color).
I want to get it left-aligned and other stuff... ? If I write it in my own css file it doesn't seem to work.

Thanx a lot.

Thanx a lot Lisa
Great info.

Jan

Ah, ok Thx a lot.
Is there a way to search for css classes or IDs by name?

Can't find no search....

Thanx.

What's the best way to work with Styles in Flare?
When I open /Stylesheets/Styles.css with an external CSS editor, there seem to be many styles missing in that file (can't find classes like TocEntry_TocEntry for example).

But working with the internal Stylesheet editor seems very, very cumbersome ...
