Question

Can I change the icon for a TOC topic?

I would like to change the TOC topic icon for certain topics within my project. So any topic that includes a video includes a particular icon. Can this be done?

I'm currently using Robohelp 10 but I could upgrade to 11 if that would help. The project is output to WebHelp. Thanks!

If all your video topics were all part of the same RH project and no other topics formed part of that project, you could do this by amending the skin file to display a different icon. It would require a merged WebHelp appraoch. The WebHelp skin defines the icon to use throughout the whole project so it would be an all or nothing approach for each project.

Thanks so much for your answers! I submitted a suggestion for future versions, too.

Hi there

Well, this is a yes and no answer.

Yes, you could change an icon, But no, RoboHelp won't make it easy. What you will end up doing is massaging the JavaScript code for the WebHelp output. This particular change isn't really for the faint of heart. Oh, and you would likely have to change it each time you generate your WebHelp output.

I would encourage you (and others) to consider submitting a Wish Form to ask Adobe to put this on their radar for a future version.
