Former versions did have this option also.

And indeed it is not part of capturing in Flare9.
That's a pity and could be added in the Options. I use it a lot.

Well, forget it.
It must have been something with my computer.
Somehow it is no issue anymore.

I am now working at my home with OS Windows 8
Every time I open a topic it takes roughly 5 - 6 seconds.
Very very irritating

Someone an idea?

I struggled a lot with getting connection with the remote connection.
So, I thought maybe this can help some other MadCap users too.

What I did set in the target file:
Type : SFTP

Server
Host Name: logfids (the same as with PuTTY)
Login Credentials...
Username: logfids (in PuTTY this is the ...

As far as I know this is not possible and I am working with Flare since the beginning.
I have tried also something with variables, but maybe someone has a great idea.

For your information: with the TOC you can use variables; i.e. if you have a Heading with a variable in it and then drag it to your ...

I only use 2 Auto suggestion files for totally different type of projects.
I have saved these files to a central location and when I have a new project I import them using External Resources.
When new Auto suggestions arise I have to synchronize the External Resource.

The only thing I would like is ...

Font property for all major tags including <body> in the default skin: Verdana

I didn't quite understand what you've set in the skin, as there's no <body> tag in the skin editor.

To change the font, open the skin editor Style tab, and select Navigation Panel Item .

This is covered in Flare's ...

I am still using version 6 since last year.
This year the priority in my job is to create tutorials for customers.
For now we put these tutorials in the webhelp (Flare).
When I create the movies I make small ones. Large movies often end up being too long causing problems with creating the output ...

I use it a lot, but I have set the Break type to Chapter break.

Go to Tools and in the menu Options select the Tab Capture.
Now you can set the check box Enable Time Delay.
If you now capture the program waits this amount of seconds. Within that time you can open your drop-down list.

I do this for years now and no problem at all.

Previously I also put a post: http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... =4&t=15489

I did submit this as a bug and Technical Support could replicate it at the end and a report on my behalf is send development.
Maybe you should also submit it as a bug.

DocuWil

It depends in which version you are working, but I think since version 7 you can just mark a part of the paragraph and assign a condition to it.
In the Home ribbon you will find the Conditions setting in the section Attributes. In the classic interface style you find the conditions under the menu ...

Normally Auto Suggestion works fine, but when I copy some text it doesn't work.
Do other users also have this problem? Is it a bug?
It is not a big issue but it irritates.

DocuWil

If the snippet includes a <p> tag and the other cell contents don't

And I think that's causing the problem.
In fact it is more problematic, because the cell contains the td style by default and if you enter text in the cell it still remains the td style, but ...

What I mean:

In your explorer search for another project.
In the map you will find <other project>.flprj
Copy this file in the faulty project (e.g. my project) and rename it to: my project.flprj

In case you have only the my project.flprjzip file then first rename this file to my project.zip ...

DocuWil

Hi Donna,

As far as I can see, you can copy another flprj file and then rename it.
I should say, give it a try.

I am also using Mimic since a few months.
With flash I ran into problems because some movies do have some short FMVs (Full Movie Videos).
So, I output to Silverlight, which can handle longer movies and FMVs (some of them are about 18 minutes long).
As it is important also to run the movies on Linux ...

You can also have a look in a post from a while ago how I did it:

Does anyone know how to get the buttons centered in the skin in a normal way?
I did put a Filler in front and at the end.

The only way to get it OK is to add more than 10 Fillers in front and the same amount on the end.

As far as I know this is not an advertisement forum!!!

Hi Pam,

Just go into the snippet itself (Content Explorer > Snippets) and make your adjustments.

Hi Matt,

I gave the Glossary Term Link a condition "Screen only" and created a Glossary proxy with the condition "Print only".
I tested it (WebHelp as well as PDF) and no footnotes appear.

I hope it helps for you (maybe I did not understand your question or you overlooked something because I think ...

I submitted it as a bug. However, I just discovered that it happens only in my current project. In another project it does not happen.
So, Iserota, it would be a good idea to create a sample project and check if it happens also.

DocuWil

Hi, I can join you.
So far I did not have a problem, but suddenly the following happens:
spell check wv.png
After selecting the suggestion in the context menu, also the word "usualy" behaves as if it was checked?????
Also I notice that when I reopen the topic only the words are underlined when I ...

DocuWil

My suggestion:
Create a sample project from Madcap and look if you can insert the image.
If that works then look at the source code what are the differences.
