Hi Gary,

You can add the tooltip as described in the beginning of this thread.

It worked for me.

Hi,

I want to add a Home button to the topic toolbar as the logo is not very intuitive in the TopNav output.

I did add the tooltip with the help of this thread https://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14785&p=94388&hilit=home+button+topic+toolbar#p94388

But the code in Event does ...

Thank you for sharing the post Neilsen.

Thanks all. I will try them out. The padding option might not work for me as the padding would be different for each image.

Hi,

Is it possible to define an area within an image to appear in the PDF output. I have image A with some whitespace for the online content. I want to remove the whitespace in print output to reduce the image size. If I choose the Enable print size option for the image, the clarity is reduced. Is ...

Hi,

It started like this....

Few users do not have access to the online help and I want to include slideshows in my print output. As slideshows do not support print output, I created snippets so that I could reuse the same images. And that lead to this https://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic ...

Hi,

I am trying to insert image map into a snippet, but the option is greyed out. I am following the process described in the below topic.

Hi,

I have upgraded to Flare 11 from Flare 10. Do I need to re-create all my previous Flare 10 projects in Flare 11 or just open then with Flare 11 and continue using them. I have also bound my Flare 10 projects to SVN.

Thanks,

No. I want a topic TOC that contains list of drop-downs (even nested) so that the user gets a quick idea of sub-topics.

Hi,

Is it possible to easily create the attached webhelp layout? The one way I can think of is by creating a table within each topic and manually entering the dropdown headings and adding links to the headings. But doing so would make the topic less easier to maintain as I would always have to edit ...

Thank you Kwag. The problem with this is that the dropdown effect is lost. Content does not collapse after expansion as the dropdown head is now linked to the bookmark.

Hi,

Is there a way to edit drop-down effect setting such that user focus is mainly on the content within the drop-down that is expanded instead of the whole page? I have many drop-downs within topics and nested drop-downs too. Trouble is that when user expands a nested drop-down within a drop-down ...

Hi,

Is there an automatic way of inserting headings, drop-down headings within a topic? What I am looking for is something similar to See Also but containing the various headings available in that topic without the user having to expand each drop-down to see what's contained within.

Hi,

I have about 13 images in a slideshow and image maps on some of the images used. The hyperlinks of the image map point to images within the same slideshow.

Things work perfectly fine within the preview, but when the output is generated, the hyperlinks do not work. Hyperlink A jumps to image B ...

Hi Lydia,

Sorry for the delayed reply. I have different mediums for topicprint, pdfprint and online.

Thanks,
Deepti

Hi All,

Bullets and icons are not being printed when the topic is printed from the deployed online help. They are printed when the PDF is printed.

I have also enabled the "Print background images...." setting in IE.

Deepti

Thanks a lot Ramon. I will try to get the log files from dev.

Another question, can Google Analytics be used for an internal website. I mean the helptext can be only accessed by users within the internal network.

Thanks,
Deepti

Thank you Ramon.

I got the server details from the dev. Here you go:

OS = Windows 2008 R2 Standard
Web server = Microsoft IIS Server 7

Thanks,
Deepti

Hi,

Are there any good free tools to analyse the internal website traffic that has been deployed for the online help.

Thanks,
Deepti

I am a dumb ***. I can see them now. Set to All Styles and Medium and sorted by name

You are right. QUite strange, the style MadCap.slideshow appears only when I switch to the Advanced View.

Thanks,
Deepti

Hi All,

This issue is now solved after I upgraded to Flare 10.

Hi,

I have recently upgraded from Flare 9 to Flare 10. The original project was created in Flare 9. When I tried locating styles like MadCap|Slideshow, I cannot find it in the stylesheet (maybe because the project was created in Flare 9).

Is there a simple way to get the Flare 10 enhancements ...

Hi,

I am trying to bind a sample project to SVN and I am getting the Unhandled exception error message after the initial message "File ... not a working copy".

Hi,

I am trying to evaluate the trial version of Mimic on a windows 7 machine. The installation was successful but as soon as I hit the Record button, I get the error message "Windows media encoder hotfix is needed". My administrator is unable to solve this issue. Suggestions please.
