Re: New zero-tolerance spam policy

Hi Tim,

Have you had a look at the results of the phpBB Best Captcha competition in 2009?

Re: Automatically start calculating...

Uncheck the "Automatically start calculating..." checkbox, which toggles it on or off.

Re: Some suggestions for Help & Manual 5.5.1

Capitalized letter commands Unfortunately, like many other software applications, Help & Manual also abuses the number of every‑first‑capitalized‑letter commands and names: Project Explorer, Page Editor, XML Source, Topic Options, Insert Above, Toolbar is Visible, Check for Update... and not, m...

Re: New Insert Image Control

If I understand your issue correctly: The Insert Image button is split into two (top half bottom half) http://www.leannehoad.com.au/temp/insert_image.png Are you perhaps clicking the bottom half (Picture Shortcuts) of the button only? Clicking the top half of the button launches the Insert > Image d...

Re: Unable remove frame

Your version of H&M is long out of date.

Step 1: update your Help & Manual to the current version.

H&M 5.5.0 Build 1273 (free download)

Re: New callout styles and more

Unless I'm missing something, I don't see for example (using Snagit 8 ) where I can change the exact angle and length of the pointer on a callout, the width of the callout border, the antialias algorithm, etc. Plus there is much more control over the drop shadow and transparency effects. Hi Martin,...

Re: New callout styles and more

Here is the sort of thing Impict does superbly -- you can't get this level of precision in Snagit: Give me SnagIt over Impict any day, Martin. Much easier and quicker to use, much better looking results, just as precise. What is in that screenshot (especially precision) that cannot be done in SnagI...

Re: Implementing Google Analytics

but where can I find " Project Properties > Webhelp > Google Analytics"? That path given in the H&M Help is a bit unclear and misleading. Should be Project Explorer > Configuration > Publishing Options > Webhelp > Google Analytics or Project tab > Project group > Options > (in Project...

Re: Can't get sortable table to work

What should I be seeing in the output? (I don't find that explained anywhere in the directions.) Should the sortable column have an arrow or some other indicator? The Premium Pack Features Demo Video shows the final output of a sortable table in action: http://www.ec-software.com/demos/FeaturesDemo...

Re: Character limitation in Full text search

I suspect you're hitting a hard coded 35 character limit in the 3rd party Wrensoft Zoom indexing tool which is part of H&M Pro. http://www.wrensoft.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2258 AFAICS, it's been discussed in their v.5 forums but not yet addressed in version 6 of the product which I believe H&...

Re: Beginning with H&M 5

b) I think I've put the ribbon bar in a sort of "auto-hide" mode. And I cannot find the way to put the "non-hide" mode. Any solution? Sounds like you've inadvertently minimized the Ribbon. Try clicking the View tab and ensure that "Minimize Ribbon" (in the Appearance g...
