The drop down hotspot contains step-by-step instructions and we plan to include a short video (3 minutes) for many of ...

Thanks Dave that solved the problem...I could have probably worked tat out for myself had I not gone into a blind panic thinking the project had become corrupted....And relax...

How can I add the CSS to the style...I can't see a way of doing this via the style sheet editor?

Hi Everyone,

I've created a note style using a DIV and when I publish my project I'm noticing that wherever a not style is used near the mini TOC the TOC is disp;layed over the top of the note style. The text does move so the user can still read what they need to but it just doesn't look great ...

I've changed my css Madcap|xref font colour to be white and in the XML editor it is but when I preview or build the content the xrefs are coloured grey.

I'm really not sure where it is getting this from. I've set grey as a colour for visited links elsewhere but I can't work out why it would change ...

That's really helpful Dave, thank you, I will have a chat with the dev team and see what they can do...

I want the table to alternate colours between all the rows in the first merged cell group and the second and so on...

I'm creating step-by-step instructions using bulleted lists and I'm using 'hover to expand' thumbnail images to show various associated screens. The problem I'm having is that the thumbnails make the lists look a bit messy and in places quite hard to read.

Ideally I would like to have areas of ...

Thanks nita, that has really helped me out and I would have never figured it out on my own!

I want an image to appear within the note but if I add the image to the div.extendednote style the images does not appear and if I add the image to the p.note style it appears on each line of the note text ...
