Re: formatting miniTOC entries as a list?

Problem found: I was using a class called “Level1” for the miniTocProxy. The code works after removing the class from the Mini-TOC.

I was not able to change the code so that it would support the class. Does anybody has a suggestion?

Thanks in advance, Christine

Positioning of bookmarked content when clicking an Xref link

Dear all,

I am wondering whether there is a property for the position of the target bookmark in a CHM output.

I use an Xref to link to a bookmark in a paragraph below an image. When I click the Xref, the window jumps to the bookmark, but the bookmark is shown on top of the window. Thus, the image ...

Re: formatting miniTOC entries as a list?

Dear Scott,

the MiniTOC proxy shows up, but not the marker.

Does anybody have a sample stylesheet how the code must look like?

Thanks in advance, Christine

Re: formatting miniTOC entries as a list?

Does anybody know whether this method should still work with Flare V6? I tried out several things and it does not work for me, though I am not sure I did the right things.

Also, I would like to do the following:

* Remove the Autonumber format from the Minitoc inherited from the Heading styles ...

TFS 2005, Edit/Lock

Dear all,

when checking out a file in Flare V5, I am pretty sure there has been a dialog popping up and asking the user whether he wants to check it out in "Shared Use/Edit" or "Lock" mode. I am missing this feature in V6. All files are checked out in "Shared Use/Edit" mode and you need to merge ...

Re: Different Set of Images for Different Targets?

Dear all,

I have a similiar situation at hand. So far, overlaying common screenshots with variables and blur effects to hide branded content worked well for me. I also capture only the inner content of a window, without the window title bar.

However, I might need to manage multiple screenshots for ...

Re: screen captures: how to get the best quality

I did a lot of testing and my results confirm what others already suggested:
* png for screenshots. Do not downsample screenshots. Scale them down only if you must-the quality, readability, and sharpness decreases dramatically.
* JPG for illustrations (300 dpi, Quality = 10). I tried WMF and EMF ...

Re: Single Souring and how to use Conditional Tags for Global Pr

Make sure the option "Auto-include linked files" is deactivated and the option "Auto-exclude non-tagged Files" is activated. Also, I rather do not use the "Include" feature. If you deactivate the "Exclude" option for a condition, it should be included, without having to activate the "Include" option ...

Re: Global Projects for Translated Languages?

I am doing it the same way (separate global projects). I don't have many language independent content, for example, my stylesheets contain Autonumber strings that must be translated. Of course, if you update the English project, you also need to update the other languages, but this is true for all ...

Re: Changing default folder for profiles and palettes?

Dear Steve,

according to the Capture Help, the Output folder defines the destination of the images files captured with the profile, not of the profile file itself.

@Nita: Of course, that's what I am doing. But it's error prone, because profiles need to be manually copied to all computers in the ...

using variables in the glossary?

Dear all,

it does not seem possible to use variables in glossary definitions, is this correct? Or did I miss something?

(It would be nice for branding program names...)

Best regards, Christine

Changing default folder for profiles and palettes?

Dear all,

as a default, profiles and palettes are saved (and read out from) a folder in the Windows user folder. As we are working in a team, this is not suitable for us, as we would need to access the same profiles and palettes. I would like to change the folder location. Is this possible in ...
