You can put in a feature request here

Does this help?:

I'm not sure I'm following.

Usually, a class contains styles, not the other way around. When you apply a class to a div or an element you are applying the styles defined within that class.

You can define a class in your stylesheet by using the following declaration:
.class {
css declarations ...

Is it a caching error? The new pdf might be available but your browser is using the previous version that it has downloaded...

If I were you Crystal I would do the tutorials and build a practice project. You'll learn how to do things properly and when you are finished you will have a test project where you can try things before doing it in your production environment.

If you are unfamiliar with HTML, it would be a good ...

Hi,

This is a peer to peer forum, so unless one of the subscribers has had experience with this you might be better off talking directly with Madcap.

You can apply an exclude tag to a folder to exclude everything it contains. At least you could, but I don't have access to Flare at the moment to test it. We used to do it to exclude print only topics from online help. (Don't ask, working for local government...)

You could also look at using conditions to specify a different style sheet depending on the language used by your target's audience.

I'm not sure if this would work, but if the Japenese users are using a font that your English speaking users aren't (ie, it's not on their machines) could you use a font family, listing the Japenese font before the English?

...I'm curious to know why you think removing the col tags would have an effect. Flare adds them automatically when it creates a table.
I don't. But when things don't act as expected and I see something like that (which in this case relates to a design element you are having trouble with) I'll try ...

Damn. Hoping for a quick fix.

Have you tried setting word-break to normal? W3 schools seem to link keep-all with Chinese/ Japenese/ Korean, so it might be having a funky effect.

I'd also try removing the <col /> tags.

I don't have access to Flare at the minute, so I'm going off my (becoming more and more unreliable) memory...

If you select the table in the editor you should see a representation at the top of table width properties. This will tell you if someone has explicitly set the column width. Try to set it ...

Have you updated Windows recently, and are you running the latest dotnet framework? Have you uninstalled any software?

Sometimes Windows updates breaks things.

You can also use numbers, and have a legend underneath the image...

It depends on what you are doing...

Snagit is popular, but I don't like the previous version (which you need if you are using Windows 10), it's file management is a bit clunky. Snagit has a good torn edge effect and page curl.

Madcap's Capture is good, and it integrates nicely with Flare, but the ...

Just a thought...

Is there a return at the end of the cell's content in Word?

Dave's right.

All content is implicitly included in Flare output. If the explicitly include it will overide any exclude conditional tags.

It is worth noting you can apply a condition to a folder, and the condition cascades down through the folder content. If you have print only topics you can ...

Sorry, I meant page layouts (that's what happens when you spear of a quick reply without checking it in Flare first...)

I might be missing something here...

Are you using masterpages? You should be able to define the layout for left and right pages (as well as first and last).

You need to research conditions.

From your description you could create a condition for staff and one for customer.

Create 2 MasterTOCS, one for staff that includes the staff condition and excludes the customer condition; and another for customer that includes customer and excludes staff. Common ...

I'm guessing the browser. Do you have a Skype add on installed?

Hi Irma,

Welcome to the forums :D

Flare only displays the styles that can be applied to the element you have selected in the editor. So, if your cursor is within a paragraph (<p>) the style window should show all the declared styles for paragraphs from your stylesheet. It will also generic styles ...

Have you checked your page layout (most likely) or masterpage (real old school for Flare and unlikely since the advent of page layout)

Welcome to the forums

Have you considered applying the conditions to the images?

You can use conditions to say use this image for this output but not the other output.

Edit:
Now I've read your post again I can see I misunderstood. @Psider is on the right track.

Hi Bob, welcome to the forums. :D

This is a peer to peer forum, and although the Madcap folk drop in from time to time it is predominately users who answer your questions.

Unfortunately we have no idea of what Madcap has in the pipeline, but if you put in a feature request who knows?
