Can we add conditional tags to Image Maps? I right-clicked the image map but I dont get any option related to conditional tags. Thanks!

Hello again

Last night I tested and it does appear that you can apply tags to each of the regions. But not really using the RoboHelp GUI. What I did was to apply a tag to a word just above the image. Then I switched to HTML code view. I then copied the tag code that RoboHelp inserts just before the tagged information and I pasted it just before the map region area definition. Once you get that done, you copy the terminating tag code and paste that just after the map region definition.

I then tested by generating the project and seeing if the area was removed. It was!

One thing I did not extensively test was to see how the RoboHelp Design View will hold up. Sometimes it rather snarkily removes changes we make in HTML view.

But you might give this a try!

Cheers... Rick

Hi there

What are you hoping to tag? The map regions or the entire image along with the map regions?

I'm able to tag an image with map regions and exclude it from the build.

Cheers... Rick

Thanks, Rick!

Yes, I was able to tag an image with the map regions, but I was hoping to tag just the map regions. My image is a variable and has about 10 image maps. So, I wanted to tag those maps to be included in the relevant builds.

Cheers,
