Min-height of list-item

[JuMo]

Hi,

if a list-item has a background-image then the list-item should have this height as a minimum so that the bg-image appears in full size. So in CSS the normal way is "min-height". Flare doesn´t understand this property. What can I use instead? Height is not a good way because the list-item could have more content than the bgs image height.

What do you mean by "Flare doesn't understand this property." ? Are you not able to find it in the CSS or have you found and set it and it doesn't behave the way you expect it to?

I don't think min-height works for PDF, but will work fine in help outputs.
Also, min-height settings may not appear in Flare's XML editor, so check the actual output.

If you need a solution that works for both PDF and help outputs, I'd suggest setting the padding (bottom) or line-height.

Thank you Dave! I don´t think it´s a good solution because you must imagine my content like:

Code: Select all

Image....Content

and also

Code: Select all

.......... Content
Image..... Content
.......... Content

If I would set line-height to the height of the background-image, then it option two would be look buggy. The same as with padding. So I need to use something like min-height. Why PDF doesn´t understand this?

Sure, I can apply all CSS-propertys I know, but I found out that min-height doesn´t affect the output in PDF.

Some CSS doesn't work for PDF - but only MadCap can tell you what is supported and what isn't.

Is there a Madcap-supporter who can help?

This is a peer-to-peer forum, and although MadCap support will sometimes read this forum, you should just contact them directly if you have a question or issue.

@JuMo, did you find a solution to this problem. I have exactly the same issue and need a minimum line height for my item in PDF. Thank you.
