SGIRA,

in the case you haven't seen that template for tables.

Bob,

I'm a victim of this problem too. The only thing you can do is to experiment with the border settings.

I have the best result with:
border around table: 1
border around cells: 1

cell padding: 2

This worked with my HP Deskjet printer driver the best way even with split tables.

I haven't seen this. But let me give a chance. I use the non scrollingheader. You can find how to implement this in the help under Tutorials and Templates > Non scrolling header template . In this case there will be no scrollbar on the right side of the header. I guess you have a scrolling header li...

I will try to give you some hints. See this http://helpman.it-authoring.com/viewtopic.php?t=2162 thread about how to create a three page layout. This was created before this was available with H&M. You can expand this example to a four page frame. See this http://helpman.it-authoring.com/viewtop...

Hello Rennie, which output format do you compile to? The behaviour is always to expand the chapter on which you click in the TOC for Browser Based Help and HTML help. There is no difference if you click on the plus/minus sign or the chapter text. Any sub chapters will not be expanding. This is how t...

I have this error too with MS IE 6.0.2900.2180 German version.

With the next change in the setup the My HelpAndManual Projects folder should be located under All Users\My Documents (auf deutsch "Gemeinsame Dokumente").

I have seen this too and moved it manually but it would be better to place it there.

Dear Martin, I searched the forum for callout and have seen some tricks and tips. Even that one with the table and the background picture allowing to have the text translatable. For this project translation and visual effects aren't needed. Just typing the text and having it vertical and horizontal ...

I have some difficulties with the callout. After editing the callout text there is always a return inserted generating an empty line below the text. It is impossible to make the callout a litte bit larger to get more space between the border and the text. The text will not get vertically centered. P...

Hi Tim,

most of the time I use Firefox 2 and sometimes just for comparance I use Opera 9.2.

Hi Tim, Expanding inline text is explicitly not designed to be part of the current sentence That's what I feared to get as an answer and the reason why I didn't put it in the Bug Reports section. I think I have to do it like you did it in the manual. The reader wil see the toggle text because it has...

I'm using H&M 4 Build 1138 and encounter the following effect using inline toggles: Toggle caption is "Splinedefinitionsdatei" and the toggle text is ", Datei die ... enthält,". The text in the editor looks "Splinedefinitionsdatei wird eingelesen". If I compile to H...

You must do version control outside of H&M with any of one of the available tools. If you use the hmx-File for this you cannot do any compare tasks between versions because this file is binary and H&M doesn't do that job. Storing (Compiling) in XML allows you to do compares outside of H&...

It only uses numbering on separate topics, not headings within topics. This is exactly what Tim meant: provided that you mean the topic headings and not paragraphs within the topics The TOC of the printed output is derived from the TOC page. Headings within topics can only be seen by humans in the ...

I would like to have a interface for scanner and cameras. For scanners there is a standard interface called Twain to get scanned images. There should be no technological problem to implement this. For cameras I'm not sure if there is a standard interface. My Win XP SP2 has a build in interface which...
