Creating Tip style with image

[kittim]

I want to create a style to use for "Tip:" to draw attention of the user. I would like the image to appear to the left of the text and have the same color background as the text. I have seen a sample help file that I accessed from the Madcap site that contains an example of this, I found it and am including it here. I thought of using a table, but thought there must be a better way to do this in flare.

Hi Kittim

This has been discussed at length in several other threads. Basically your options are a table, custom unordered list with an image as a dot point, and a custom div tag.

Note that if you want to single source and create printed (Word) output you may have a totally different set of problems and I found the table approach worked best in Word.

Thanks for your reply. I have been unable to find this discussion before I posted or after your post. I would love it if you could point me to the previous threads or help me with my keywords. My searches turned up nothing.

I found a different workaround, doesn't top left justify the graphic, but looks pretty good. close enough for rock n roll as we used to say...
