What do span.boolean and span.state do?

Post by Phlawm53 »

Sorry for submitting this but I searched the Madcap Flare 6 online help ("OLH"), this forum, and Google for span.boolean and span.state and came up empty.

So, in Flare 6, what do span.boolean and span.state do?

If in the topic editor I highlight a bit of text, then right-click and in the shortcut menu choose Span Class, these two default classes are prominently displayed. Given this, I'm surprised that an OLH search didn't find those terms...

Cheers & thanks,
Riley

I've actually no idea, hopefully someone else knows.

One tip though - if you want to hide styles that you don't use, select Options > Disable Styles on the stylesheet editor toolbar.

They are operators in Dita.

When importing Dita and these elements are used, they are stored in the topics as span styles so that information is not lost.
