I will try this suggestion and see how it works.

thank you!

Sorry for late response, I had other fires to put out…

Right now, all my appendix topics just start with the H1 for the headers, and as I indent them in the TOC, the TOC does what it is supposed to do normally and adds the digit that is normally used for an indented level. If I didn't want the ...

Hi all

Need you help again! In a TOC, you can select the Properties and decide how the TOC will look. I understand Chapter Number, and I think I know what Section Number is (as I used sections when I used to work with Word). But I have no clue what Volume Number is and how to use it, nor can I find ...

If I zip the folder with my online output, it contains all the html and png files. I understand that it does not contain all the pagelayouts etc. That is what I mean by my content. But you have answered my question, thanks.

Hi Nita

That's what I do at the moment too, but only to internal colleagues, because you when you zip this, you zip all your content. I don't really want to give external people access to all my files and images.

Hi !

I use conditions to generate manuals for different purposes. But can we take it one step further and compile one HTML help with all our topics, but users can only see certain topics based on the privileges they have in our application? In short, we want to hide some of the manager pages from ...

Hello!

I am wondering whether it is possible to deliver a compiled HTML help with e.g. SideNav in just one file, just like we could with the old CHM file? So we can send the customer or user our compiled help but not give them all our html files and images etc. used as source. This would be a ...

Thank you so much! That did the job

Hi guys, I need your expert help again.

We can probably agree that it is not a great idea to have too many levels in a TOC… But unfortunately, my help does have more than four levels. The SideNav menu window shows all my levels, expands them etc, but they are not indented after level 4. I want to ...

Hi guys!
You have been a great help before, so here I am trying again...

I would like to change the size of the navigation panel when in responsive output for tablet and mobile. I actually want to make it larger, as I have added some labels (icons) that are truncated and float between the proper ...

Thank you so much!

Hello good people!

I am using the Sidenav layout for my online help. I have a blue frame or box that appears around the expander icon. It is not there when I hover, but appears when I select an expander icon and on the next level too if it has the expander icon. Then it disappears again when I ...

Thank you so much, Dave. It looks great now!

Thanks OzScott,

I actually got it to work using this code for the map icon:

.mapicon a::before {
content: "";
display: block;
background: url('../Images/AppIcons/SVG/maps.svg') no-repeat;
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
float: left;
margin: 0 6px 0 0;
}

Then I add the class to the TocEntry in ...

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the link. I did experiment with this and I can certainly use it for separators. I found it more challenging to use for the icons. However, I did find a solution somewhere else in this forum, the topic "Span tags in menu proxies".

Hi guys!

I am using the Side Navigation skin for our online help. I am finding the skin editor a bit limiting, but I do not have great html skills. I have two wishes:

1. I would really link to add different icons to some of the menu items on the top level as some of these describe tools and it ...

I cannot find ul.MCGlossaryProxy_0 or anything like it anywhere. When I inspect the page in a browser, I can see that the li is used, but I cannot see where it is defined.

Hi!
I have the same problem. Did you ever find a solution? Do you want to share it?

Hi!
I am having problem building DITA files. (I really want to build Framemaker files, but MadCap remove dthis option :( ). I can see that others have had variations of the 10086 error and I have tried their solutions like moving the output path to C. The funny thing is that I can produce both PDF ...

Hi!
I am having this problem now too. I can produce both PDF and Word content but when I try to produce DITA content with exactly the same files, I get this error. I tried the solution about moving the Output folder directly to C, this didn't work either. The message says it "could not find part of ...

I am using the Side Navigation style and also want to edit my Toc Entry (to bold) but there is no Toc Entry item in the skin editor. Have MadCap removed it again in Flare 2019? Or has it never been there for Side Nav? I am not using the latest R2 version yet. Is there another way to style this Toc ...

I do now! Thanks for your input, Rob!

Hi again,

After using Flare for a couple of years now, I am finally getting round to trying to fixing some of the minor issues I have had where I applied manual fixes until now. Like inserting the empty page before the back side of our manuals. For a while I thought I was not using the empty page ...

Hi good people!

I use bold to refer to UI options. It looks pretty good everywhere except in tables in pdf. Here, the bold word are floating above the line (see attached image). I really don't know where to look to fix it. When I apply bold, I just select the word and use Ctrl+B which adds the <b ...

I have the same problem - my line is blue, but the same problem. No matter what I adjust, it is still there. Any ideas anyone?
