Workaround for inserting variable into Output Folder path

Post by DMilkes »

I tried to enter a variable reference to an Output Folder path in my target, but it fails because the reference includes the % character. Is there a character that can tell Flare to treat the string as a variable? Or is this a candidate for a feature request?

UPDATE: I just built the output (which happened to be Word) to my chosen output folder, and noticed Flare builds a whole structure within a new Output folder, including a Resources folder for the one image in the file. Seems pointless now to ask for variable support if this is happening.

Never mind...

It thinks you need the resources folder for any images if you have not chosen to embed images in the Word target file.
