Cannot select CSS

[jlemon]

I imported a project from FrameMaker to Flare 5.
I mapped the Frame styles to my own CSS, and chose to detach the Frame topics from the Flare project.
Now I'm hard at work in Flare and I'm finding a couple of odd things:

1. I cannot select a CSS from the topic Properties. The CSS drop-down list is read only, even when the project has more than one CSS. How can it make this list active again?

2. When I create new topics, no CSS is listed in the header. I need to create a CSS link. How can I have new topics automatically add a CSS?

3. Also, my list items (ordered and unordered) are indenting a lot in my WebHelp AIR output. But they look fine when I view the .htm topics in various browsers.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-John

For the first 2, this will be because you have a Master Stylesheet set for either the project or target.

Make sure that the Master stylesheet is not set - i.e. is set to (default) - in both these locations:
- Project > Project Properties, on the Defaults tab
- The Basic tab in your target(s)

Thanks Dave! Those two problems are now solved.
