How to "freeze" an image, so that it doesn't scroll

Post by mdslup »

I have many topic files; each topic file has an image with callouts at the top, then 10-20 tables below it. Each table refers to one of the callouts.

I'd really like to be able to "freeze" the image or hold the image in place, like in a pane or an iframe or something", so that the user can scroll through the tables below the image, while keeping the image in view.

Is this possible somehow?

Hi,

You could achieve this using a CSS customization of your own.
More specific, you could use a CSS selector to match the element that holds your image, then apply your own CSS rules for it, to style the output as desired.

You can find detailed information on how to use the internet explorer's CSS inspector to identify the selectors you should use to match a specific element as well as details on how to use a customization CSS to style the WebHelp output in this section from the WebHelp User-Guide.

Best Regards,

Ah, I wasn't aware this was something I could do with CSS. Thanks.
