Disable search auto complete for Responsive HTML5

Hi all,

I am looking for a way to disable search auto-complete in a Responsive HTML5 output in RoboHelp 2019 Classic (Charcoal Grey layout). The issue is that the auto-complete also suggests the name of the images in the project (which contain "_" in the file names) - and the solution is not to rename all the images.

Do you maybe have any idea on how I can disable the search auto-complete? Thanks!

    Images are not baggage files and there's no way I know of to exclude them. Try techcomm@adobe.com but I don't think they will have anything.

    In this case, is there any way to exclude images from the search auto-complete? In the "Exclude Baggage Files Types from Search", I only have the following options: pdf, doc(x), ppt(x), xls(x), txt. 

     

    Or can I somehow edit the code to exclude the images (or entirely the auto-complete search)? Thank you.

    Sorry, that's an option in the New UI. Nothing I can suggest for Classic.

    Thanks Peter. Maybe I am missing something (or looking where I shouldn't), but in the search settings in the preset I only have the following options: 

    - Enable Substring Search

    - Enable External Content Search

    - Show Context in Search Results (which enables/disables the "Use Topic Comment as Search Context" option).

    - Exclude Baggage File Types from Search

    - Generate XML Sitemap.

    In the search options in the preset, disable auto complete.
