Hi,

I'm trying to embed a helpXplain file into my chm files.
I'm Help&manual it seems OK but after compiling the CHM file doesn't display the image animation, only a black square -

Help&manual 7.5.1
HelpXplain 1.0.0.850

Hi Michael,

In addition to updating HelpXplain, also check the following:

You must have a recent Internet Explorer version installed. Old versions cannot support HTML5 and CSS3 and the CHM viewer is just Internet Explorer with a different interface.
Make sure that you are using a current CHM skin. If you are using an old skin it won't contain the switch that forces IE to use a more recent rendering mode and your CHM viewer will be effectively Internet Explorer 7.

Basically, the <head> section of your HTML Page Template in your CHM skin should include the tag:

Code: Select all: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

OR

Code: Select all: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=10">
