I'm not aware of any properties to change the annotation characteristics. You can, however, use up to eight characters in the initials field.

That might ease some of the pain. Have you submitted a feature request?

Add this to your css and it will force your code snippets to remain within a table cell and display a scroll bar on overflow.

MadCap|codeSnippetBody.table
{
width: 100%;
overflow: scroll;
}

I'm responding to an old post. I was just looking up how to accomplish that.

Add this override to your CSS and it'll restrict the width to that of the table cell.

It seems oddly reversed that a reset for of the things that are supposed to appear one time made that go away

But I'll take it

I'm only starting to research this myself. I'm setting up my first huge project since they became a thing ;-)

Everything I've read so far indicates that you should use as many as necessary. That seemed mainly to avoid giant files, but I haven't finished reading everything.

P.S., If you're able ...

Hi,

Can you share the exact steps you used to create your SVG so someone else can take a shot at resolving the issue? Different tools, different workflows, it might work with a slightly different approach from what you used.

Ever wonder where the config for those things lives?

Look at one of these locations for an example of PinnedStyles.xml:

"ProjDirectory\Project\Users\YourName\PinnedStyles.xml"
--- or ---
"ProjDirectory\FileSync\Base\Project\Users\YourName\PinnedStyles/xml"

(The difference has something to do with ...

Why am I not surprised that it's M$'s browser causing the issue?

All hail the new Internet Exploder

This issue popped up in the Slack channels this morning. Here's a link: https://madcapflareusergroups.slack.com/archives/C5CTN95BP/p1689675281541079

But just in case:

There a feature request to add flex and all its attendant elements. Feel free to climb on

Flare will whine about flex, but will still use it.

Hi Jim,

Add this to the div classes, button-group-container-left or button-group-container-right, that hold your toolbar.

style=" display:flex;flex-direction:column;"

Flare whines about flex, but it works.

Output:

@ktbCA57,

Laura Johnson's tabbing system works: https://www.madcapsoftware.com/blog/adding-tabs-to-your-madcap-flare-topics/

Open Laura's code pen and paste the html into a new topic, add the css to your stylesheet, add the js to resources/scripts/js, then add the script tag to the head of the ...

Hi,

Unfortunately, you can't do anything to the first four icons on the quick access toolbar. You can right-click on the tool strip function to add more functions, but there is no way to shuffle them around or remove the first four.

As Nita mentioned, us Flare users are kinda light on the ground and using Slack provides a sense of community that we probably can't find locally. I know about the physical user groups, but for those one needs even more time than we need to just pop into Slack or to the forum.

And all those others ...

Yep, I am in complete agreement. I think the price is a bit much. If I had to pay for my own, I might go $50 a year.

So just the same way we can become a company's corporate memory, we can do that for ourselves, too.

I'm looking to put a scraping bot to work. I have a couple leads for a script ...

You need to add these to the div style:

display:flex (flex isn't available in the editor, add it manually)
justify-content:center
align-items:center


Flare doesn't show flex as a block option and the justify-content and align-items come without their properties. Mine were "inherit." when I added ...

Hi All,

Sure, we look at Slack 99% of the time. But when message drop off after 90 days, it's like ghosts said it because there's no record and we can't recall all the details.

If you find a cool workaround and a way to accomplish some crazy task that has everyone scratching their heads, please ...

Copy out nav.title-bar from one of Flare's generated css files
Add it to your stylesheet with these changes:

nav.title-bar
{
padding: 10px 0;
line-height: inherit;
display: block;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center top;
padding-top: 25px;
padding-bottom: 25px ...

Flare uses MathJax to process the equations entered into the equation editor.

I've used prism.js and mermaid.js for syntax highlighting and diagramming in Flare by adding it to the head section of the templates. You ought to be able to manually add mathjax to a template and then have mathjax ...

You could bookmarks the image captions to make the cross-refs work as you need.

Hi,

Your question is a little complex.

Flare has a function that you can call from a script that would allow you to schedule a build using Windows Scheduled Tasks.

You would need to lay the groundwork for that automation, though. You need to create an Import project file for the report's file ...

I was able to add a bookmark for an image from the ribbon after selecting the img block. It leaves the anchor between the p and img tags:

What did Flare do in the code when you tried it?


Are you able to use Slack? You'll get ...

Yep, pretty much. It'll get updated soon and then we can push the users to the right seats.

There's no method to set any "(default)" value settings. That's Flare's placeholder for null.

We got our licenses a month or so ago and also have the old license names. MadCap setup our site with the Contributor and Executive licenses both set as Author until they roll out the change. It essentially works the same as Central's planned future mode.

That lets me run central, allows my ...
