Multiple instances of PullDownButton style in stylesheet

Post by gkidder »

Every time I reimport FrameMaker files to Flare, the stylesheet grows exponentially. It appears that each instance of a PullDownButton style generates its own style in the stylesheet, so I end up with hundreds of duplicate entries for:
MadCap\00003AdropDownHead.PullDownButton
Is this a known bug? FYI: I think I've come up with a workaround, but it's still annoying.

ARe these local or inline formating, it could be that the imported is adding these to you stylesheet.

The PullDownButton style is a FrameMaker para style created to convert to the pulldown style in MC. It's not inline. It's mapped to p.PullDownButton in the import file. Oddly, the PullDownBody style, which is treated the same way, does not do this. However I have style sheets that grew as big as 1Mb just with all the redundant styles for MadCap\00003AdropDownHead.PullDownButton
