MadCap Software Forums

I have yet to see any result from capturing on the second screen. Capture just stays blank.

Check out this past forum regarding the removal of the logo in webhelp. It's possible the method is the same for the topic toolbar.

I resolve it myself by dragging the contents to my primary screen. I use madcap capture all the time and love it. I don't know if it can work on the secondary screen ever.

I would like to know if someone does find a way.

I know there is a way to do it, as there are other forum posts in here who have used examples set up similar to what you are asking. Have you searching the forum?

I suggest that you try to change you stylesheet so your index and TOC only have 1 column instead of 2. I know the default is a two ...

This might seem like a silly question, but did you assign each of the 3 targets to use the stylesheet? I had the issue where I can assign the stylesheet to the project, but it wouldn't use it in build until I assigned the stylesheet to the target. Just a thought.

Hello,

I am working in the page layout and have created an image frame and selected my image. When I do a build, everything in the page layout shows up except the image. Does anyone know why that would happen?

I have tried moving the image frame all over the page, so I know it's not ...

Hey Lisa,

I just wanted to let you know I figured out the issue. You mentioned how it doesn't pull well from a network. My project files were on a network a few weeks ago, but I decided to put them onto my local machine. When I was opening the files, I thought I was pulling them from the local ...

Flare 4.2 only allows you to go to Edit>Find in Files. That allows you to put in a keyword and searches all topics.

Other than that, looks like you will have to put in a feature request.

Nope, I am building straight to a folder on the desktop of my local computer.

Hello all.

I have been working on my bookmarks in the PDF output and I think I figured out that in the PDF build, the bookmarks listed at the bottom are only bookmarks that are NOT cross referenced to anything. Has anyone else found this to be the case? When I cross reference them somewhere, the ...

I did a test and deleted my index proxy. Then did a new build. All my bookmarks like the one shown in the example disappeared. So I am am still trying to figure out if that has a correlation to why my page numbers are not showing up.

I originally thought that was the issue, because they both had them. I tried deleted them from other index entries, but still the same issue.
I just deleted every single bookmark in the topic (since none of my other topics have the bookmarks, but are still having issues with correct page numbers ...

You may have to put in a feature request to tech support for a future version.

I have an issue with the index not putting numbers at some of the index entries. Here is what the output looks like:

I have looked through all entries without page numbers, and there is nothing similar about the entries, so I am not sure what is happening. Here is what the madcap ...

I just received an email from MadCap Technical Support that tells me this bug is not able to be fixed in the current version of Flare, but has been reported as fixed in the next version of Flare due out next month.

Sounds good to me.

Content explorer always has them lined up alphabetically. What you could do is put a number in front of the topic title that will force topics into a numerical order. In order to set up the TOC, just click "Open Master TOC" and then you can drag topics from the content explorer into the TOC. Then ...

Have you checked out the Skins under project organizer? There are also skins to download off the madcap website.

The topics should be in alphabetical order in Content Explorer, so I do not see what the need is to search for topics. Can't you just go to Edit>Find files?

Andrea

Yes to both. There is another post regarding this issue and it had been deemed a bug issue and so we all submitted bug reports.

I don't know what I was thinking. Instead of creating variables, I just put the company name and copyright on the cover page directly, then all I have to do is change the main page layout and when the rest of my projects build, they will reimport the information. It's easier than changing a variable ...

I do not think I understand what you are trying to ask. You want to search topics in the explorer window?

My images still bleed into the footer and I already have the page break inside: avoid turned on.

I fix this by moving my images up so they are in a different place in the text because the text does not overlap.

I already have page break inside: avoid included because the page was breaking by putting an image on one page and it's caption on another page. Now, the only issue I have is the floating images do not adhere to the body box specified in the page layout, which is why it runs into the footer and of ...

The issue I'm having is I put it on my main page layout and although all my projects re-import the page layout, they are not including the image or variable information.

Hello all.

I am working on my cover page in page layout. I have 23 separate projects that I would like the cover to look similar. Right now I am in the page layout. What I would like to do is have the company logo on the front page, as well as the company name as a variable.

I know I can just ad ...
