Re: snipx images missing in .epub and .mobi format

Can you please take a look inside the SVG file and locate the HREF attribute? It looks like that: <symbol id="image:1"><image width="2048" height="1364" preserveAspectRatio="none" href="data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSk... In the first release version of ...

Re: Numbering Steps format change at 10?

This is probably a bug. Did you insert this in Help+Manual? H&M should be able to handle 3 and 4 byte Unicode symbols (that's what we are dealing with here). MS Word may apply some extra tricks and sometimes changes Unicode symbols for different ones, if it sees them fit better for some reason. ...

Re: Spell-checker punctuation.

Please post examples. Those word-joining characters are hard-coded, with some differences for French, Spanish and Scandinavian languages. They are not a property of the spelling checker, however. They belong to the content and XML parser that splits the words. On related topics, we have no plans for...

Re: Translating SnipSVG

When blur/overlay are baked into the bitmap, they do no longer exist as objects of their own. Replacing the image replaces those manipulated bits as well. This is not the case with the SnipX file format, which preserves the bitmap effects separately. But the effects must stay within the bitmap bound...

Re: SnipSVG works well with Outlook and PowerPoint 365

Thunderbird does the same when using 'attach from clipboard' Thunderbird can embed SVGs but does not recognize the SVG clipboard format (MS Office does). When you use the Share function in SnipSVG and export it as SVG file (export as file or temp file), then SnipSVG not only creates the SVG file in...

Re: Using < and > in page titles does not work anymore

Hi Volker, <project name>_output.dat is not a valid variable reference. A correct reference would be <%projectname%>_output.dat without spaces and with <% and %>. But even <%projectname%> is not a standard variable and must be user-defined. Here, it depends on the variable definition (HTML = raw, TE...

Re: HelpXplain XML schema?

Hi Simon, The XML format of HelpXplain is not officially documented, and we don't plan on disclosing it, either. It just doesn't make sense. An .xplain file is a zip archive that not only consists of an XML file inside, but also image files and other binary resources, together with a fully rendered ...

Re: New option Include additional "ZipHelp" information...

Hi Kerstin, An error in the CHM export has nothing to do with Ziphelp. The Ziphelp option is an extension of the regular sitemap.xml that H&M creates when publishing Webhelp . If the sitemap option is off, not sitemap is created, therefore the (not created) sitemap does not include a Ziphelp ext...

Re: Markdown as insertable builing block

That's a very interesting idea! In particular with Markdown, which blends beautifully with existing text because of the limited formatting options of the source format. We will consider this for one of the next updates!

Isn't the list already scrollable? There is a scroll button at the bottom.

Re: SVG arrow head problems

I can see the marker points into the wrong direction. Our SVG library currently does not support the orient="auto-start-reverse" option. But even when set to "auto" (this means the same as "auto-start-reverse" and should be supported by the SVG library), it does not pai...
