I don't know if you're still working on this, but my (not so great) workaround has been to go to the directory, save a copy of the .flali file as a .xml file (just changing the file extension manually in the name), open the XML in Excel, and then save it as a .csv. It's not ideal, but it will work ...

Hmm, OK, I will try stripping everything out and adding them back into my stylesheet one by one. Thanks!

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your response! :) It used to work for me - but since the <div> was replaced with a <nav> on the back end in Flare, it no longer scrolls separately from the page by default (with my imported skin stylesheet). The navigation pane scrolls right out of sight when you scroll the page ...

The latest Flare update changed some things on the back end that had the side effect of screwing up a bunch of my skin styling. I use a post-build command to import my own skin stylesheet. I have fixed most of the problems, but my side navigation pane still has a problem with scrolling out of sight ...

Same here - even though this post is a few years old, I just saw this error for the first time. Thanks a lot for the solution!

Hi all,

I know this is an old thread, but I thought I would add some info about a post-build command that I created to import my own skin styles into my side-nav HTML5 output.

**this might not be the best way to do this, but it works...

I designed my own skin stylesheet, which I use to override ...

This thread is a few years old, but I'm having the same problem as ChoccieMuffin - I love that I can include my PDF cover page in the Flare TOC, but I don't want it to show up in my printed TOC. Since it doesn't have a heading or field that I can see where the mc-heading-level property is set, I'm ...

Awesome! I hope MC adds more options for search, but in the meantime, I like the local search bars you added. Thanks for sharing!

Dave, this is a lifesaver!! I have been trying to add conditional text to a ton of content at once, but applying the condition seems to only add the tag to certain parts of the Dropdowns within my highlighted content. (Possibly a bug??)

I was afraid I was going to have to manually condition the ...

Perfect!! I just adjusted the size and position to my needs. Thank you so much!

Here are my resulting styles, if it's helpful for anybody else. This creates an overlay block that's 100% of the width of the expanded thumbnail and 20% of the height (positioned at the top). My "close" graphic is ...

Thank you for the tip, Dave I was dreading trying to keep Topic.css properly updated...

I realize this post was a couple of years ago, but I have struggled with this as well. MadCap Flare's tech support team has told me that the best way to deal with this was to resize the full-size images to be the expanded size I wanted, but this is a lot of manual work. Has anybody found a workaround?

I'm looking for something like this as well! I second whunter's question, if you're willing to share the styles you created

This is very helpful, thank you to everyone who commented here!

JRtechw, the steps you outlined make sense to me, but I'm just starting to learn a bit of JS in order to build my own search filter buttons (I'm not a programmer... yet :lol: ). I want users to be able to see which filter they're ...

No luck Thank you for the idea anyway!

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Flare, so please forgive me if there's an obvious answer to this question. I am using Flare's Slideshow feature to lay out some tutorials in my HTML5 output so that users can click through to see previous/next steps.

I like this feature a lot, but I cannot seem to get the ...

I am also curious about this. Did you ever find a solution?
