Question

Can't see topics in WYSIWIG

For a new project (first one I've created in new Robohelp), I modified the default style sheet (default.css) with the Style dialog box. It worked fine until I imported a Word doc, which resulted in another style sheet getting imported.

Now, any topic that I try to apply the new style sheet to doesn't show up in the WYSIWIG. It shows up in the preview and in the True Code, but I can't see it in the WYSIWIG. The only way I can see it is to apply the style sheet that came in with the Word doc.

The other really messed up thing that's happening is, when I apply either style sheet to a topic, the content from that topic replaces content in EVERY topic. So, if I apply one of the style sheets to Topic A, Topic A's content is copied to every topic in my project!!

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Ah, the magic of rebooting.

I opened the project today, applied the new style sheet, and all seems fine. I'll work on it today and see if it keeps running smoothly.

My project is on my hard drive, but it will need to be moved to a server eventually so that other writers can access it. I haven't had a problem with servers except for excruciatingly slow speed and the tedious process of creating any new links that then need to be edited so that they don't link to an external source.

Thanks for the responses.

Also make sure your project is not on a network drive. If it is, move it to your hard drive and see if the problem magically disappears

Are you still getting this after a reboot of the PC? What version of RH are you using?
