Question about underscoring

Post by ccardimon »

The "User Guide Basic" template causes green underscoring to appear onscreen with H1 text, which becomes a pale gray line when printed out.

I would like to either remove the underscoring or change the color to plain old black.

Where in the style sheet would I look for the underscoring element?

It would be in the h1 tag in the print medium. If you don't see it there, then you might have to set the text-decoration attribute to none.

This is now officially driving me crazy. I have looked at the H1 tag in the print medium. I found the text decoration attribute, but it isn't turned on.

Here is what's killing me. Look at the image below.

I thought the indented sections had H2 tags. But when I found them, they had H1 tags. Some H1 tags are not indented. Some H1 tags are indented. The indented H1 tags have underscored text. The unindented H1 text is not underscored.

I hope I have explained this well enough. I have found the underscoring elements but none are turned on. The items I think are H2 are actually H1. I am quite mixed up at this point.

Suggestions?

Check your target and see if you have "Use TOC depth to set heading levels" or however the feature is worded. If you have that enabled, then a topic that's a child of another topic is automatically changed from an h1 to an h2 in the output. A topic that's two levels deep (grandchild) is changed to an h3 tag, and so on. In your example, it appears your procedure topics are children to the Escalation Procedures topic (i.e., that topic appears as a book in the TOC Editor and the procedure documents are indented under that book).

So if that feature is enabled, then you also have to look at the styles for h2 and so on, at least in the print medium.
