I am still troubleshooting this error. I've been focusing on getting the stylesheet to apply, rather than the links.

I found that I can merge the Webhelp target in Project B with a Webhelp target in Project C, the topics from Project C will use the Master CSS. But only if I delete the links to ...

The only thing I can think of right now is to verify that the files were updated on the server. Check that the skin folder has the current copies.

If you have the correct title when you check on your machine, then your settings are correct.

Good luck.

In your skin on the Styles tab > AccordionItem > TOC > General > Label. You can also change the font, etc.

If you want to change the font/size of your TOC entries, its on the styles tab under TocEntry.

I set the width of the background image wider than the default width of the help window. If my window is set at 800 px, then the image is 1000 px. It took a little trial and error to get the location right, and the background behind the logo is a simple gradient fill. The user can also resize the ...

For some reason, my merged topics are not using the stylesheet and links are not working. I am merging using targets in WebHelp.

I have a Master Project with a Master CSS. The Master CSS is specified as the default stylesheet at the project level.
The Master Project is linked to Project A and ...

I was able to do this for my webhelp in Flare 7.2.1 in a round-about way.

I created the header including my logo where I wanted it and inserted that on the styles tab > frame> toolbar>background image. Don't forget to set your height appropriately.

Here's where it got a little funky. When I ...

I broke up your questions to answer:

Are the links you're referring to simply standard links from topics in the Main project to images and snippets also in the Main project? Yes
And then you import the Main topics into projects A, B or C, and the links that worked in Main are no longer functioning ...

I need to figure out the best way to connect topics and linked images/snippets so that they 1. stay current, and 2. keep the links. I'm in Flare v.7 with all updates.

Hopefully I can explain this clearly. I had to draw a diagram for myself.

I have a Main project, and Project A, B, C.
I have a ...

I've been working with this today also.

Are you using the same page layout for those pages?

I have a different page layout for my title page, so that's specified in the TOC properties for the entry.
Then the copyright page is a new chapter with the new page layout specified for it.
My TOC uses ...

Thank you!

Our Tech Pubs group each has our own target based on our needs. The last target created became the primary and was a PDF.

When I changed the primary target to WebHelp, the newly-opened topics defaulted back to layout (web) and medium (default).

I thought it was that simple.

We have several projects imported from Robohelp and Word. For the most part they came through fine.

One project, however, defaults to Layout (Web) and Medium (print). I can go into each topic and change the medium, however, the change will not persist. I have to change each topic, each time I open ...
