hmm, just playing with some style settings. Unfortunately the border starts at the beginning under my TOC numbers, looks a bit strange. Thinking how to start the border line at the beginning of the TOC text

I think that doesn't work. When I set the respective TOC conditions to "Screen only", these topics will not published in the PDF.

But I want to publish the topics without TOC entry.

Hi all,

I have been added one topic to two different TOC positions in my automatic generated PDF TOC proxy.

No I want to hide the second TOC entry. Is there a way to disappear / hide a topic title in a TOC?

Thx a lot.

Hi all,
in my old framemaker TOC my TOC1 heading has a special underlined style, see below, "Test table" looks nice.
Now I want to convert this style to flare´s PDF output, see below, "Connecting the device" looks nearly nice.

Thinking about this underline issue:
In the p.TOC1 and p.TOC2 style I ...

hmmm, thinking about this issue the whole day :madcap:

I´m working with a notebook in a docking station and displaying my topics on two 24" TFTs.
The TFTs will be on the whole day for other programs like outlook etc.
My notebook has a small onboard graphic chip, not an external high performance ...

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.

Hi,
I´ve ...

Hi all,
When opening a topic in my HTML5 tripane skin, I´ve a bit confusing behavior :shock:

Some longer scrollable topics slip / scroll automatically "under" my skin.
First I had belived that the h1 heading is the problem ...
But I´ve set the h1 padding top to 10 px. When I increase this value ...

Hi all,
I´ve uploaded my HTML5 help files on our server. It works fine with IE and Chrome, but the left tripane links does not appear when using Firefox.

Any suggestions?

Thx a lot!

But I wondering that some topics will be displayed but on the other hand not.
Seems that that is not a flare problem, looks like a ftp server problem instead ...

Hi all,

this issue is valid for a HTML5 tripane skin help.

Normally my HTML5 help is part of the respective software product. After a local installation of the software (with the online help included) you can open the online help in the software´s help menu and the browser opens it. Nice so far ...

For my PDF output I use the system variable <MadCap:variable>name: System.PageCount .

My PDF has 47 pages, but the counter stops on page 45.

Page 46 has the footer "46 of 45"
Page 47 has the footer "47 of 45".

On these pages are normal used topics in my standard DIN A4 page layout.

thx dave, but I´m not sure if I understand it right:

table p { margin-left: 0; }

Is this a p.style setting in the style editor of the stylesheet or of the table stylesheet, I do not find it in the table tab, where I´ve to insert this value?
Or is table.p a new style?

Sorry for bothering

Hi all,
I´m a bit frustrated about creating a simple table style :mrgreen:

1. I insert a simple table.
2. I apply a table style.
3. When typing one text line only as a <td> style, it looks fine.
4. But when typing several text lines, my <td> style become additional <p> styles.

Now I´m thinking about my online help which is part of the installed software on a local hard drive.
Does this work: I link from my onlinehelp from a local drive to server location?

now it works with the system title variable.

But how can I prevent the h1 numbering from heading 1, I´m to stupid ... mc-autoformat-position: none doesnt work.

indeed my global p.style has a 10px left margin, thats the distance to the left.

Hmmm, using a snippet.Text instead of snippet.Box sounds nice, but I´ve always edit this in the thml source code by inserting a snippet in the topic right?

Therefore I´ve create a p.SnippetTask child without 10px ...

Hi all,

I´ve created a simple snippet as shown in the figure. It is only a p-style with an image. It is not an ordered list snippet.

When I put this snippet in the topic, it looks fine so far as also shown.

It has this code:
<ol>
<li>Click on <img src="../../4_Images/1 ...

Thx - @font-face is the solution !!!

Hi all,

our company uses a special company font.

I publish PDF outputs, then the company font is embedded in the PDF file, nice so far.

But I publish also an HTML5 online help output. Unfortunately external partners have not the company font locally installed and my online help output files ...

Hi all,
unfortunately the favicon doesn't work in my html5 output as well:

Have you figured out why it doesn't work?

I´ve tested a lot of combinations like with an png image instead of an ico image file or other relative pathes and image folders.

<head>
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href ...

Hi all,
whow, the disc in unordered lists <ul> looks different in IE/firefox/chrom, unfortunately the left margin as well.

Can I define the size of the disc without drawing a round filled circle image :lol: :lol: . I would like to insert a character from a standard windows font, but how can I do ...

I suppose not. You can use one style sheet for all stuff. Switch the medium in the stylesheet editor from default to print or non-print as required.

HTML Skin Style > Navigation Panel Item > Block > Word Wrap = nowrap.

Note: In my current stylesheet my topics have no items. Then if you set to nowrap, it looks a bit confused for the customer.
