Hi all,
I want to change the blue arrow icons that are used with dropdown hotspots. I can change them post-build, but I'd like to set them once, and then forget about it.
does anyone know where this can be done from?
Thanks,
Nick
Where are the dropdown hotspot arrow icons set?

In the stylesheet, for the MadCap | dropDown style, try changing mc-closed-image and mc-open-image. They are both in the "Unclassified" section when working in Advanced view.

Nope, that one doesnt work. Still getting the default blue icons.

Hi Nick,
1. Go into the Flare program folder such as - C:\Program Files\MadCap Software\MadCap Flare V6.1\Flare.app\Resources\Images\WebHelp
2. Replace DropDownClosed.gif and DropDownOpen.gif with the images you prefer.
3. Rebuild the project.

That is an option, but it will the apply to all projects built with Flare. At least make a backup of the original images in case you need to revert back.

Also, if you change the default images in the Flare program folder and then reinstall Flare, the custom images go away, so take a backup of any custom images as well.
