Question

Customizing the Responsive HTML5 frameset

Hi all,

So the Responsive HTML5 frameset has a top banner, TOC/Index/Glossary pane, and the topic pane. My team is asking me to add another frame to the right of the topic pane. This new frame would contain code samples, and ideally, users would be able to open the frame by clicking links in the topic frame. See the screenshot below for an example of what my team wants.

Is this possible with RoboHelp? What would be involved?

We're using RoboHelp 2015 with FrameMaker 2015 source content in a Windows 7 environment.

We're producing Responsive HTML5 and Multiscreen HTML5 outputs.

Thank you for any advice you can offer!

Best regards,

Kate

Hi there

The big thing about HTML 5 is that framesets are not supported in any way.

Perhaps Willam will see this thread and advise.

Cheers... Rick

    Hey Rick,

    Thanks for the reply! Frameset was probably the wrong word to use. The goal is to be able to customize the layout. Specifically, my team wants our HTML5 output to include a section with descriptive text, and a section with code samples where the main Topic content usually appears. I'm eager to hear if this is possible with RoboHelp.

    yeah, if anyone will know it will be Willam. He's like a guru with CSS3 and SCSS and all the knowledge of that stuff.
