See? I knew it was going to be something obvious... HOWEVER... when i went in to try to find and edit the menu proxy in the MasterPage - i don't see one. How can this be if i am seeing it in my output help?

I can add one, but what happens to the one that's in there now?

I saw that this question was posted 3 years ago... but I don't see a resolution - at least not that worked for me.

The recommendation was to make sure that the styles were being changed in the skin for the correct medium (Web, Table, or Mobile). I see that the style settings I've made are for all 3 ...

Thanks... did all that early on... didn't really fix it... I suspect it has to do with our TFS integration... but i'm used to it now! lol

THANKS! Happy Monday!

Hi CM...

Yes... I most definitely have 2 styles: n=1, and n+1. However, luckily, the numbers seem to be working again. I ended up removing the problem snippets from the topic, closing the project, reopening the project, and reinsterting the snippets.

They seem to be OK...... for now. I have had a ...

I feel super stupid... but so happy it wasn't a bug like i was told at first! THANKS, ChoccieMuffin!

so... to my chagrin... but really kind of relieved... this was an issue of inline settings.. somehow the tables got set to Left in the properties and I didn't notice or see that. I generally have properties set to the default left margin... so not sure how this happened...

Thanks everyone for your ...

These are Table stylesheets for sure...

The issue with creating a new stylesheet is that i still can't set the overall table width - just the column widths individually. Unless there's a way that I am not seeing. :(

Thanks for the suggestion tho! and you did teach me a new trick...applying a ...

I submitted a ticket to Tech Support to find out what was going on.. I was told this is apparently a bug that has now been reported and they will notify me IF a solution is found! This seems like kind of a major deal... it is for us! SHOW STOPPER IN FACT!

So... I go into an existing table that is ...

Great suggestion... I will try that! THANKS!

o it to the first paragraph in the snippet

Thanks, but unfortunately, that's exactly how it is in the snippet... i have a style set up for n=1 and another style for n+1. but that is being overridden once i insert the Snippet into a topic... :-(

OK... and to top it off... I've found some places ...

So I have several snippets that contain numbered steps as they are required for different areas of our system - so they appear in multiple topics. However, I just realized that once the snippets with these steps are inserted into a topic, the associated topic stylesheet is overriding the numbering ...

Thanks so much for taking so much of your time to look at this and provide input.. MUCH appreciated!

see what CSS is being applied to each element. This will help you determine what is being applied at what level and from what source in order to determine what you need to override.

So... i tried that, but it all looks OK to me... it doesn't mean it's right, it just means, I don't really know ...

I've always had table challenges.... so to work around those, I've always used paragraph styles on top of the table styles.

However, I'm trying to simplify my project by creating my tables with the appropriate fonts and spacing to eliminate at least some of the need to have to apply individual ...

NITA BECK

- Thank you for this info... you are a gift that keeps giving - even 3 years later!

Thanks, Nita...I am so glad you kept asking me!

they were set at both folder and topic level... but they were set using a different Editor category that I have never used - that was just there. So I had no idea it had been applied. The affected folder and topics had an indication that they were conditionalized, but the colors were the same as ...

I just found out that this was related to some obscure conditional tags someone had set that I didn't believe were ever used so I never checked them... So sorry!

OOOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMMMMMM GOOOOOOOOOSH!

SO... somehow someone had put some kind of obscure conditional settings that I never use so it never occurred to me to check those... i'm so sorry.. this has solved a number of issues...

COLOR ME BLONDE!

Thanks so much!

So that DOES appear to be the problem... however, I cannot figure out WHY those topics aren't included in the output... neither are conditional... they are set for the same target... what else can I check?

Thanks.

there is not enough room in the space provided in the Top Nav skin so they are "off screen"

Well.. this doesn't appear to be the case that I can find. I've shortened the headings considerably... and the missing TOC entries (now named Introduction and Users & Groups still don't appear. I thought ...

All EXCELLENT POINTS! THANKS SO MUCH!

Going to reconsider how this is done and make adjustments accordingly!

THANKS!

I have 7 books in my TOC in Flare - but only 5 of these are showing up in the header on my home page. I've looked at every setting I can think of but can't find a reason for this.

As usual, i'm sure it's something obvious, but i'm not finding it - what setting determines what appears in the header ...

Nothing has changed... and another thing I didn't mention is that these do not show up as broken links when I run Analyzer.

They also do not show as links in the Preview. However, I did convert spaces to underscores and regenerated and re-published... still no good. :?

Thanks for the suggestions ...

Awesome guess... I hadn't thought of that, but these are both main topics... I double-checked, but neither of which have been conditionalized...

Thanks for trying tho!
