Displaying a topic within another topic

Post by niina_p »

I looked around Flare's help and features to see if there's a way to display a topic within another topic in the output. I was unable to find such functionality. Can anyone confirm that Flare has no tools for this?

There is a tool, take a look at snippets. A snippet is not a complete topic and cannot be used as a topic, but it allows you to plop content into a topic, even into several topics. If that is not what you are looking for then we'd need some more information about what you want to accomplish.

Snippets are great! You can use them as a "source" to link from if you need the same text block on several places in your documentation, for example, note, copyright message... If you need to update the snippet, you only have to do it from one place, Flare will ask if you want to update the affected topics and they will be updated automatically.
