vmin, vh, vw, and rem

Post by dcarson »

Hi, I'm trying to make my help scalable by using vmin for font sizes, etc. This is not a units option from within the Stylesheet Editor or the Skin Editor, but I can make the changes by editing the style sheet and skin in a text editor. So far, so good.

Except that I can't get the images to scale, with not having that choice in the editor and not knowing how to set the size otherwise. Anyone else know how to do this?

Thanks!

One other thing I'd like to get to scale that I don't seem to be able to figure out is the search box. The output is HTML5. Thanks again.

Can you post some of the CSS you're trying to use? I generally do all my stylesheet changes in a text editor (Notepad++) outside of Flare, and haven't run in to any issues with getting images to scale using the viewport units.

As far as manipulating the search bar goes, I was able to change the size using the viewport units both by editing the output .css files in the Skin\Default\Stylesheets directory (less useful, of course, because you'll need to reapply those changes with each output), and by using Dave Lee's instructions for customizing the Flare skins: http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... 12&t=19584 -- Might help to look at what code you're trying. =)
