Is there any space being added after your block in the img style?

I've been seeing a similar issue where my full bleed images on cover pages suddenly shift a few pixels because margin and padding are being added. I know this has been removed from my CSS and yet it occasionally comes back. problems ...

Something I would check is the margin around the image in the first column. It looks to me like that is possibly setting the height of the table. Not certain, but maybe another possibility.

Good luck, and the weekend is almost here.

I haven't tried importing .aspx files into Flare, however, just as an observation, these are essentially just HTML files if you ignore the scripting. It surprises me that Flare doesn't understand these as HTML.

I suppose you could change the extensions to .htm or .html and import them as HTML to ...

I haven't used it myself, but I think you want to investigate using madbuild from the command prompt. Madbuild is a command line utility that can be used to build multiple targets at once and can be added to batch files to build all projects, one project with all targets, just one target, or any ...

I see a couple fields in the readout that make me think this is graphic driver related (PresentationCore in parameter 3, and System.IO.FileFormatException in parameter 8).

It looks like you haven't gotten the latest patch for Flare to bring it up to 10.1, might be worth a shot.

Biggest questions ...

Yes, I am using Flare 10.1. Unfortunately, I don't have v9 installed as I recently switched to a new computer here at work, or I would do a little more investigation.

The brackets and arrows indicate that styling has been applied at the character level, frustrating to read through but working normally.

You can open the Style window on the Home tab of the ribbon (open in your screenshot) in the Styles section (in the middle), click on Style Window. It will open ...

Is the Semibold font installed on your computer? (ie, does it work in other applications?)

I believe this is what you're looking for. You can set the corner radius individually or all at once, either when editing the image (as shown below) or through the stylesheet entry for img.

And welcome to the forums Mark!

Have you already tried using Reset Layout under the Window menu?

I've always just included my images in the Resources/Images folder, unless I need to keep them separate for some reason. This has worked for me when I add custom logos to my HTML5 projects or for epub output.

I'm curious, have you tried a relative URL to link to the second help system? Something like <a href="http://../system2/index.html">. I don't have any projects setup to test this theory, so I may simply be exposing my need for caffeine.

I'd be interested in this myself, though I haven't thought to start one on my own. Please share if you do.

I halfway expected this information to be in the project file, but I sure don't see it if it is. Would be a nice feature to request.

The only place where this becomes an issue, that I've seen at least, is when dealing with Subversion local file versions. Are there other compatibility issues you've ...

Did you possibly miss some hidden files?

I reply quickly and then the brain kicks in...

Did you have any imported files from another project? if so, did you also move that other project over and is it in the same path where it was before?

On the other hand, I'm using HTTPS to access cloud-based SVN and am seeing slow performance no matter what I do.

I did experiment briefly with using Tortoise to control my check in/out from Explorer without binding the Flare project to SVN. THAT method works quite well, if you're up to it.

Hope ...

Choccie beat me to it. I was going to say that the only pain-point I've encountered thus far with v10 is the slowness of working with SVN. Other than that, I've been feeling like a kid with a new toy.

Are you using network-based source control for your projects (I'm assuming the answer is yes)?

I've been seeing this behavior since upgrading to version 10, though I had it to a lesser extent in 9.x as well. Nita mentioned in another thread (http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?f=68&t ...

I imagine that's rather disconcerting.

I've not heard of this happening. Could it be that the style has flipped to use white text on a white page? Is the page count what you expect for your project?

My issue seems to be resolved by setting the screen font size to Smaller (100%). Donna, have you checked to see if your display is magnifying the text size?

Although, a word of caution, it might make all text a bit small to read.

I just discovered a similar issue and solution on my setup. Changing to 100% for the font size seems to do the trick, but now I really need my glasses.

Does anyone know if the Flare instant messaging is broadcast-based?

I don't know for sure, and could easily be wrong on this, but my guess is that the instant messaging feature is broadcast-based. If this is the case, most networks will limit or even block broadcast traffic, in which case, it would ...

I've actually been running into similar issues with a new ultrabook, whether displayed on the internal screen or output to desktop monitors. All three screens are set at 1920x1080, which I believe matches the display resolution of the Surface. I'm going to experiment a bit and see if I can find out ...

I have used Windows Backup to run a schedule incremental each night just covering my data folders (for Flare that means my working folders and my publish folders) and save to my personal network share. Because the network share is on servers that receive nightly backups, I'm relatively safe except ...
