Easy Select Condition Asset Now Missing
Does anyone know how to get that condition selector to show at the top of the htm file? The one that allows you to easily select conditioned content? I tried changing layout and deselecting/reselecting the conditions caret tag, and it's not appearing. Not sure why Flare automatically would turn that ...

Re: Conditions "Popup"
What is that thing called, then? It's like a conditions toolbar or something.
There it is. Flare hid it in the Show Tags dropdown. Not exactly intuitive, but, as they say in the Tech Writer industry, whatevs.

Re: MadCap Central User/Seat Roles
Are reviewer seats "generic?" For example, if you purchase an additional 10 licenses, can you swap users if someone leaves a project, or if there is a brand new set of reviewers for a different project? Or do you have to buy MORE seats?

Re: PNG Images blurry in Flare HTML Output
OK. No response.
Looks like I need to open yet another ticket with Flare. Getting a bit bothersome, really.
Another problem I'm having is that images are not importing into an html file. I'll open a ticket. Thanks anyway, guys.

PNG Images blurry in Flare HTML Output
Images are screenshots captured in Snagit. Snagit DPI is 300.
Images are .png files.
The image size in flare doesn't matter. The images are not clear.
Any suggestions? The forums haven't yielded a definitive solution.

Newly Created Style Not showing in Flare Output PDF
I just created a new style using the Styles formatting window, and the Target/Output PDF is not recognizing it. I created a third level numbering style. Has anyone else encountered this? There's nothing online about it. Thanks.

Yeah. The first suggestion is not ideal, but it's a workaround.
The second doesn't work.

Sorry...not sure what the official technical name is. I'm in Flare and want to display the mini conditions popup that show the condition I'm using so I can select it easily. As we all know, selecting text in the xml editor to remove conditions can be a major undertaking. Any thoughts?

Hide TOC Entry in Printed Ouput?
Hello
Due to GitHub constraints, we've had to add a cover and signature page PDF to a TOC of one of our user guides. Is there a setting we can apply so that the cover and signature page do not appear in the PDF outputs' bookmark's or in the output Table of Contents?
Thanks!
