MadCap Software Forums

Thanks!

I've always thought of global projects as a one to many feature, instead of a many to one feature. I'm going to give this a try.

Hello,

I have a series of projects, one for each of seven user manuals that have PDF and Word targets. Each manual details a specific aspect of our software and average 250 pages in length.

Is there anyway of getting the content of all seven projects into one HTML5 project/build?

Is there some way of preventing Flare from adding the MadCap:lastBlockDepth , MadCap:lastHeight , and MadCap:lastWidth to the html tag? This causes additional work every time we perform merges in our CMS (TFS) as it is seen as a content change. When you are merging into 80 branches (which is how dev...

There are a multitude of styles that appear in the style windows that we simply do not use, and are not defined in my Style.css file. This includes things like address, cite, del, etc.

This leads to a lot more scrolling that we would like. Is there anyway to prevent these from being listed?

Our developers found the problem. The issue is with the Default_CSH.htm file. Part of the scripting in this file converts a file names to lowercase, so when the scripting runs it makes a cal for default.xml . However, the file is in actual fact Default.xml . This is not a problem for most locally he...

The browser in use is IE 7. The webhelp is delivered in both online (the help is kept on a client's corporate server) and offline (Help stored locally). The issue only occurs in online. We make the call to help in this fashion: window.open(base_url + '/../' + url, 'tarheel_window_b_' + win_type + '_...

When launching our Webhelp directly, we get no script errors. However, when opening the Webhelp from the application we get the following script error: Line: 137 Char: 2 Error: 'documentElement' is nul or not an object Code: 0 URL: https://directory stuff here/Skin/Toolbar.htm The Toolbar.htm only h...

All good advice, I'm sure. Perhaps beyond me in some cases (for example using sysinternals tools), but I will forward them off to our systems department (who initially asked me the question as they couldn't find the answer in Flare documentation or the Madcap site). However, I'm still hoping someone...

The files are refreshed out of VSS to a local drive before the compiling is done. So, they are building on a local drive.

It is the compiling that we are hoping to boost. We do almost 300 builds a night. It currently takes from 6 pm to about 4 am. Our systems staff was wondering if the process would see a speed boost if the system was upgraded to a dual core or if they clustered some systems.

We were wondering whether Flare can make use of multiprocessing either by using * Multiple CPUs by linking several computer systems together. or * Multiple core chips such as Intel Core2 Duo. By this mean we mean that Flare not only runs on these chipsets (which we know it does), but actually make u...
