08-11-2009, 1:36 AM jokrug Joined on 08-10-2009 Posts 7 using png instead of gif in navigator Hello! I am using "Word-2-chm 2009 Pro, 2009.2.718.2187. The generated chm files are used on Windows and on a Linux system (with kchmviewer). Under Linux, the button graphics of the navigator (we use the msdn template) are not shown. This is, because our kchmviewer can not deal with gifs. Gif support was left out because of the limitted resources on our Linux machines. Is there a way to make the navigator using up.png, left.png... instead of the respective gifs?    Report

Currently it uses the "left.gif", "up_d.gif" and "right.gif" from UserImages. I cannot find an entry in any of the files from the MSDN theme, where I could change this behaviour. By the way: the installer installed the gifs in UserImages with uppercase fist letters like "Up.gif". The function GetNavigator() creates tags like "img src="up.gif". This is no problem under Windows, but since Linux is case sensitive, it will never find the files. Just a little adjusment for the small minority of Linux users    Report

Please try it by yourself at first. We will release the update which contains the modifies.    Report
