Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
I run WebHelp from Apache and it works perfectly fine. The only issues I ever came across are with IE, but those were entirely browser-based. IE is just not up to the task of rendering web pages.

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
I have heard that Flare 6 will be released in March. Can anybody confirm that? Any feature list yet?

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
MadCap never confirmed a specific date and never published a feature list before the release went out. I don't think they changed that approach. You have to wait until they publish it, whenever that may be.

I was informed this week that it was within "a month or two." No specific date was given but clearly getting very close.JupiterJones wrote:I have heard that Flare 6 will be released in March. Can anybody confirm that?

Flare 6 to work with Visual SourceSafe 6 would be a welcomed addition!

Does anybody know whether new versions of X-Edit or Feedback Server are due with the release of Flare 6?

There may be some who know, but they may not want to tell.

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
Hi folks
The MadCap website says Flare V6 has been released. However, there doesn't seem to be an update from V5?
Has anyone got V6 yet?

Flare: I bought it ... so that means I can break it, right?

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
Release date "March" was a pretty good guess, I think... 
Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
Sadly, the four open issues we have reported were not fixed in Flare 6.
Time to bug support, I guess.

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
But some changes are impressive. Created a PDF using V5 and the size was 7MB. Added more content and graphics and built with V6, size is now 1MB.

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
Yea, but I have seen it in other non-MadCap applications as well. Seems to be something that .NET geeks think is funny.

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
It was the subject of much discussion way back in ver 1 or ver 2 days...
Thought it a good time to remind Madcap it was still visible (and some of us have long memories)

Re: does anyone know what's in store in Flare 6
Glad the PDF issue is fixed (with v5 cretaing extra files and folders). Yay.
I was hoping a one file output of dotnet was on the cards but alas, no.
That said --- a lot of things seemed to be have been streamlined (especially inserting images). Haven't investigated them all but for the moment, good job MC.

hola DurtyMat!
If you submit your bug feedback request here, the more likely it'll get fixed or included in a future release
