Browser based Air Help issue

Hi all,

I have the issue with browser based Air Help output. Some of my topics have images. Some of the topic titles are quite long. They are longer than the width of the Contents panel. When I click on a item which has a very long title and if there's a picture in the body of the topic, the Contents sub-menu appears behind the image in the body of the topic. See the screenshot:

Any ideas how to fix this? I use Technical Communication Suite 3.5 and link my frame maker sources to robohelp.

Shorter titles? I am teasing but I don't think there is much you can do with browser based AIR help skins other than change the colours and icons.

Thanks, Peter.

You're right that you can only modify colors and icons thorugh the AIR HElP editor. However, there's a exStyle.css file in the !SkinSubFolder! and I wonder if anyone tried to modify it and can advise what element could be responsible for the above issue.

I have not seen anyone post that. Something is telling me the skin is Flash based and what you would need to change that is not in the public domain.
