I think you should just be able to edit the path in the flprj file.

Before you start, unbind your current project from the old source control location. Also check its workspace mappings are removed in Visual Studio (or TFS Explorer).
You can then delete the local files if you want to.

To update ...

Thanks for the reply, Dave. I'll carry out all the steps!

4) Open Flare and import the project from its new location in source control, using: File>New Project>Import Project > Source Control .
One more question, Dave:

If I check the .flprj file out via VS, map it to the directory where my project is going to reside locally, edit the paths therein and ...

Thanks for your quick and detailed response, Dave.

I just have one question (since I'm not very experienced with TFS terminology/concepts): How do I go about checking that the project's "workspace mappings" are removed in Visual Studio? I just poked around a bit in there and found the "Advanced ...

Hello, all.

I've done a bit of searching in the forum on this topic, but couldn't seem to find anything that reflects my current situation...

My company is setting up a new source control server and migrating our existing TFS database to reside on it. I've had my Flare project bound to TFS for ...

there's a new "PDF stitching" feature in v11 which I think should do exactly what you want.
See: http://webhelp.madcapsoftware.com/flare11/Content/Output/PDF_Output/Stitching_PDFs.htm
Sweet! Thank you for the reply, Dave.

I recently updated to v11, but hadn't explored too much yet nor seen this ...

I'm trying to include all of these extra pdfs as an appendix and then send my pdf to a printer to create a manual.
I would love to know if anyone can provide some instructions on how to do just what melrose12112 is trying to do.

I've also been asked to add an appendix to my Flare PDF output ...

You don't actually NEED a <div> to place the table, as far as I'm aware.
(@TheGreatAndPowerfulOz, why did you specify to put it in a div?
I think you're right, ChoccieMuffin. There is no need to use a <div> element to place a <table> element within a <li> element. That's just the way I wound up ...

The table does belong to the "Producers..." bullet so ideally it would go underneath...
I understand your issue of trying to make a large table fit in a small area (that will need to be addressed separately), but knowing now that the table is to be associated with the "Producers..." list item ...

The screen capture of your code doesn't represent all the content of the topic, so it's a little tough to troubleshoot as is.

Would you mind copying/pasting all the code in your topic to a text file and attaching it here? I'm sure we can sort it out with that in hand.

I need the list under the table to align at the level I highlighted to match the list above the table, but it is creating additional lists that I can't remove or it places it at the very first bullet point.
Without seeing your actual code this is a little bit of a shot in the dark, but I'm ...

You can use <Shift> + <Enter> to create a carriage return in the check-in comments field.

Suggestion accepted! I've submitted an enhancement request, seconding your past request to include an "environment checker" of some sort.

Thanks, Riley.

Thanks to all who've posted information on this topic!

I attempted to generate some PDF output yesterday whose content references several SVG resources, only to receive a rather unspecific Error Processing SVG File message during the build. Gee... What could that mean?

If it hadn't been for ...

A fix for this issue was provided in the 10.1.0 release. Thanks, MadCap!

we accomplish hiding the drop-down text from print outputs by using a condition tag
Thanks for the reply, Mark.

I thought of conditional tags, but they won't work when a user chooses to print a Help topic from their web browser (that's the scenario I'm coding for). So, the <span.class> technique ...

you don't have a <MadCap:dropDownHotspot> tag in the dropDownHead
Thanks, Dave.

That was actually just an oversight in pasting the code into this post. In reality, I have a snippet within the parentheses that contains the <MadCap:dropDownHotspot> tag. I just forgot to put it in here.

I'll update ...

So, I was really excited to download and install Flare v10, with all its fancy new features. As soon as I published my HTML5 target, however, I was met with great disappointment... Nothing to do with all the great new features, mind you (they're great!), but because of a glaring bug that's been ...

With a couple of thousand topics and snippets in my project, I couldn't handle having to spell check just a handful of them, close Flare and re-open (to release resources), then rinse and repeat over and over...

So, I opted to download and install a little utility called MicroSpell http://www ...

I decided to run a full-project spell check today and soon ran into the system resources issue that's been reported here (Windows 7, 8 Gb RAM, i5 CPU).

I don't really think it matters how many files actually get changed in the process of spell checking; it seems more to do with Flare's action of ...

Thanks, pouliotmax (I assume you were replying to my last post).

However, when I spoke of using a function, what I meant was that I'd like to call an existing function in Flare's JavaScript code (if one does exist) in the same way that I used to call Flare's "ShowHideNavigation()" function in ...

Simulating a click isn't my favorite approach. But with jQuery:
$("#show-hide-navigation").click();
I agree... I try to avoid simulating a click if at all possible, as well.

Does anybody have the time to do a little digging in Flare's .js to see if there's simply a function we can call to cause ...

This does not seem to work on a html 5 output.
Sadly, I've also discovered this (just hadn't posted anything about it yet). :(

Since I've moved my project away from generating WebHelp and have opted for HTML5 output, I've tried to figure out how to produce the same functionality, but without ...

MadCap is currently looking into the bug I submitted; they asked me to ZIP my project up and send it to them so they could attempt to reproduce the issue.

I noticed two things, in particular, while writing up the bug:

1) In order for the build error to occur, the conditional tag applied must be ...

Hi

The navigation buttons which has to lead me to the Previous and Next topics are not working in my published output. Please let me know the procedure to make it work?

Suganthi,

First let me say that I've actually "moved on" from WebHelp-type output and am now deploying ...
