I have many, many 2-column tables in my project. However, i generally only use one or two tableSTYLES... Becasue of the way our UI person designed my layout (for responsive designed) my tables have to be VERY narrow. I've generally been able to adjust them so that the content looks ok, but suddenly ...

So somehow, something weird has happened to some of my togglers... and i can't figure out what happened. They open and close ok. The content underneath is fine, they just look weird and are almost completely illegible (because of the orange plus signs). They are togglers within dropdown bodies, but ...

OK David Lee! Per usual.... you fixed the issue... not sure how I stupidly missed something so obvious! and not sure how I had created an ID instead of a class as i thought i did.. but went in and "re-created" the class that i thought i had.. and VOILA! THANKS!

THANKS!

Actually... I thought it WAS a class... but where it's working, it shows as an ID... I'll try recreating a class... and then i'm thinking i need to report this to Madcap... no?

When I go through the steps of inserting a toggler, I include the step of applying the Class ID but it's not really applying... i have to go into the code and add it manually. I have not had this issue previously - even in this same project.

What process am I missing?

Thanks ...

The code you've got is HTML, but Flare uses XHTML.

In XHTML you can't minimise attributes, so allowFullScreen is not valid as it doesn't have a value (="xxx").
So you'd need to use allowFullScreen="true".


PERFECTO! I was hoping it was something that simple... Thank you sooooo much! :D

So, I found a royalty-free, animated gift that i want to add to my project. I got the code to embed the resizable image, but when i add it to the topic, I get the invalid code error... I've looked and looked at the code... which I copied and pasted directly into my project and I'm not seeing the ...

I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER! lol... THANKS AGAIN!

WOOHOO... This request caused me to take one last look at the code... i had looked at it so many times yesterday, it was a blur... but i found a column width pixel setting written in the code that was not showing up in the xml editor... THANKS! IT WORKS NOW! TYTYTY!

(Using Flare 2019)

I have a table style that I've used throughout my HTML5 online help. I have to set the overall width to be quite narrow because of the way our UI designer created the topic layout. So.. my width can only be 85%. For the most part, I've not had any problems with column widths. I ...

So i went thru all of the properties steps yesterday... at least 3 times... making sure the correct css was set appropriately for the topic and the target... and that conditions were set appropriately.

Then, this morning I went in to check for both items in the suggestions... and as i was doing so ...

thanks again!!!!

I have a large project, but i also have a target that includes only one topic that has to be built separately from the rest of the topics. when i build the full project, it's fine, all the styles show appropriately in the built and published versions. However, the single topic shows the styles in ...

I have NO IDEA WHY, but THAT WORKED!

YOU ARE A GENIUS!

THANK YOU!

i'm sure there must be a simple setting I'm missing.

I have a large project, but have one topic i need to generate to it's own output, target, destination. I have excluded all other topics from the properties of this target... but every time i build, all topics are included.

What could I be ...

Hi all...

so our trainer would like to take the glossary we generate in Flare and import it into Wordpress for use on our LMS... has anyone out there ever done this?

Just wondering if it's even possible or if someone has a recommendation for another method.

Thanks!

I just opened a new project. I need the colors i used in the old project. Is there anyway to snag them from the old project and pull them into the new one?

that seemed to help... problem solved... THANK YOU

Unfortunately, I've checked that... :-(

Thanks, though. :(

So, i had a small project (10 topics) that i needed in import into the larger project. I thought importing was the best way rather than copy and paste so that things would link up automatically.

Also, i have a few different styles sheets because our UI designer added in fontawesome, as well as a ...

I have a similar history, and agree that i'm a Flare fan.. but can't agree that it was easy to learn.. i had quite a steep learning curve and continue to be learning after almost 10 years... but i'm not very tech-savvy... so that's probably why.

it could be worse.. we could be stuck with one of the Adobe products like RoboHelp... the old help that was here when i started was in doc-to-help...

so i guess it's about trade-offs...

Line 78 runs on and on in a mash of HTML. The second image shows where I added line breaks, creating lines 78 through 95. It is more of a nuisance (since it is "correct"), but I am curious as to what causes it.

I can't see all of the code from 78 and 79 that you posted... the first thing that ...

Hi...

Thanks for responding.. I ended up having to contact Tech Support... in one instance there was a &#160 issue... but i've had it happen since and that has not been the cause. I have a continuing ticket as they are starting to pop up.

This hasn't been an issue until our UI person started ...

lol... well geeee... thanks, ChoccieMuffin! LOL

YEAH.. i've considered the dumping idea... but everyone seems to like them.. and only a few people have complained about them not being obvious.. even tho there's a note about each that reads: Click on a screen element... blah blah blah...

I'm sort ...
