Re: Responsive Help Theme-How to Change the Title Font Color

Hi Cynthia,

I suggest to modify your font-size and use em as unit:
font-size: 2.0em

This should work better than pt, especially for responsive themes (see
https://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/units.en.html ).

Re: Can you publish one chm using content from multiple proj

Hi,

with merge you will get multiple chms as output.
If you want to include all contents in one chm you may need to import all contents into one project. Flare has something that is called global project linking which may help you to organize your projects.

Re: Windows 10 and Embedded PDFs (in a CHM)

Hi,
sorry, but I cannot confirm your observation in general: One of my Flare 2017 r2 projects has a pdf in TOC, and when I create a chm, this shows the contents of the pdf as expected on my Win 10 Version 1607.

Hi,

I suggest not to import the chms, but start with their source files .hhp etc. In order to get this in H&M you may need to recompile your H&M project with the option "Delete temporary files" unchecked. If you choose to create a chm without a skin this will also help to reduce cleanup work in ...

Re: Links in Tripane Skin doesn appear with firefox

Hi Matze,

seems to be some kind of version conflict. My Tripane HTML 5 result created with current Flare and with left contents pane works well, with FireFox 54.0, obviously ecxactly as with IE11.
If you have another FireFox version, please let me know. I will test it, if possible.

Re: Change location of toolbar icons

Hi,

For changing location of toolbar icons you may find Setup in your skin which offers left or right positioning. Changing the sequence of icons is done in toolbar section.

As for the breadcrumbs:
using them in a Masterpage is the simplest method to get breadcrumbs into each content page.

Re: Broken "More" links

Renaming chm file isn't good. You'd better change name of generated file by using the property base name in D2H's Help Target dialog. I am sure that this will keep your links alive.
