Join Neil Perlin for an in-depth discussion in this video Solution 3: Create a graphic to a topic, part of MadCap Flare 11 Essential Training.
- [Voiceover] Here's my solution.…So I'll add a line below the text paragraph…in the Spaniels topic…and insert the Bisby.jpg graphic there.…I can actually insert the image anywhere.…I'll just put it below the text…to keep this example simple.…So I'll select insert image.…Now I have to go find the image.…So I'll click the browse button, the ellipsis button.…It's going to open the open file dialogue box…and I'll go to the folder…that contains the desired graphic.…
Here's the graphic.…Click on open.…I'll get a preview of the graphic.…I can also add a screen tip if I want to…create a little hover help.…The screen tip adds some text that will pop up…if the user hovers their mouse over the graphic…for about half a second or so.…So, for now I'll just click okay.…It'll ask me to copy the graphic to the project.…I say okay.…Here's the graphic.…I'll click off it.…
And I'll do a save all.…Do a preview.…And here's my graphic.…You now have a tiny but working Flare Project…with textual and graphic content…like you'd find in a real project.…
