Label for 'Figure' class

Post by Emilie »

I recently got an HTML manual translated from English into German (translation project handled withLingo). After the translation was finished, I exported the translation into a new MadCap Flare project. In the manual, there are pictures with a caption under them. All captions have a 'Figure' class and the label is 'Figure' when it is supposed to be "Bild" in German.

This is how it looks in the XML:

And in the text editor:

Code: Select all

<p><img src="../Resources/Images/Screenshots/MyImage.png" class="thumbnail" /></p>
<p class="Figure" MadCap:autonum="<b>Figure 1-2: </b>">Caption text</p>
Is it something I can change myself in Flare? I checked the stylesheet thinking there would be a line where I could edit the label for that tag, but I can't find it. I also tried to change the language of the Flare interface thinking that maybe the translation of the label for the Figure class would change automatically, but that's not the case.

I've been using Flare for about a year now, but I'm still a newbie for many things. Can someone help?

Thanks! :-)

Hi Emilie.
Are you sure this isn't in your stylesheet?

If you navigate to your .css file in the Content Explorer and, rather than double-click on it, right-click and select the Open With > Internal Text Editor option, you might find it easier.
Search the file for "Figure" and you should find it is specified as an mc-auto-number-format in your style.

I find it easier to look at the file in this format, rather than in the Stylesheet Editor.
Fingers crossed that that helps.
Regards,

Yay, poblem solved. Thank you!! Goddammit, I should have asked the question on the forum sooner instead of wasting two hours trying to solve this issue by myself. :roll:

Great. Glad to help.
I struggled to find something within the Stylesheet Editor yesterday, and found it quickly as soon as I did this.
Cheers!
