Have you thought about mapping the drive and folder structure to create a shorter filepath?

Where are you building to?

If the person who created the project has pointed to a local directory, or a network drive they created, do you have the appropriate network privileges to access and create files in that location?

Is there another style sheet in use?

In cascading styles if a style is set later in the 'cascade' it will overwrite the earlier instance.

The other gotcha in Flare is setting styles for different media, in effect, the same style sheet uses different settings for print and online output.

Have you explored page layouts with odd and even pages?

You can only remove them from the software used to create them and if you have the 'master' file. If you are using Capture it will be the .props file that should be in the same folder as the image (it will have the same name).

If you don't have the source file you would need some serious image ...

You've provided your own answer, Don:

"I have no problems with publishing other content, although that is all published locally"

If you are publishing this content over a network it will be slow. You are better off publishing everything on your machine and then transferring it to the network.

The Microsoft help compiler can be used to decompile or reverse engineer a .CHM file.

The only download link I could find that is active is:

Do you have the source used to generate the .CHM?

semicolon missing from the line starting Filter?

When you are recording a movie it is a good idea to press the Print Screen button on the keyboard before and after performing an action.

This forces a screen capture.

You should end up with a lot of duplicate captures, but it is a simple thing to delete those you don't want.

What is the format of the content generated by DocumentX?

The only control over ordered list numbering is type and value.

Because your numbers are referring to the numbers in a graphic you can create the legend in the graphic as well. That would also have the advantage of keeping the legend with the graphic irrespective of page breaks if you are creating ...

^^^ What Nita said. You're hardcoding the lowercase a.

You can use autonumbering, but that is only necessary if your lists get broken or get continued from another topic (ie a break in your source documents) or you're trying to do some funky formatting.

I'd also suggest you keep your classes etc ...

Woohoo.

While its mainly been life as normal in Adelaide, it's great for the fog to be lifting from Melbourne.

Your second instance of the higher-level list is a new instance and therefore restarts at one.

You can either create the lower-level list inside the upper-level list tags (ie create a list with items one to three and then insert a new list with 2.2, 2.2, 2.3 etc) or you can hard code the new upper ...

As with all monitors don't use Windows scaling. The resolution with screenshots won't change, no matter what resolution you set the monitor at, it will capture at 96 dpi.

Although I have only done limited testing, there are no issues if you keep resolution and scaling standard. Previous experience ...

Snagit needs to be registered with Windows to appear in context menus.

Try right-clicking a .png file I file explorer and using the 'open with...' command to open it with Snagit, you might have to 'choose another program' and navigate to Snagit.

Should work then, although you might have to do d ...

Is it possible to apply a style to an image on image level (so to speak)? That is, every time I insert the image the style is already applied. I do not want all images styled this way, only this particular image (and several others of course, too many to create a snippet for each and every one of ...

You can view your project topics in Window's File Explorer. Switch to details view and sort by the date column. Not an elegant, within Flare approach but it does work.

There are limitations on formatting ordered and unordered lists (ul and ol).

One workaround is to use autonumber. You can use it to create a numbered element, formatted how you like. You can format whatever follows however you like, and then apply you autonumber to the next numbered element ...

Have you tried putting the content inside the list item tag, rather than after?

Welcome to the forums.

Although someone might be able to answer your question, this is a peer to peer forum so no one can answer a question about the underlying design of MadCap applications.

Have you set image size using percentage?

This could lead to low quality resizing.

If you have, try setting image size using a physical size, like 550 pixels to cover a page width.

Are there any MadCap support people in the Forum? Maybe you can help?

This is a peer to peer forum.

Occasionally support people drop n, but if you need to talk to someone from support you should contact them directly.
