ExtendScriptToolkit Question

I don't see a category for ExtendScriptToolkit questions.

Adobe RoboHelp 11 * About ExtendScript Toolkit support states

"Click the Click To Connect To Target Application to run RoboHelp. The icon is green to indicate that RoboHelp HTML is running.

Note: If you don’t select Adobe RoboHelp in the ExtendScript Toolkit, and you try running a script, an error occurs."

However, when I select Adobe RoboHelp 11, the link icon (shown in green above) is broken and red. I assumed I needed to navigate to the RoboHelp 11 executable and run it. However, selecting it brings up a dialog "Please select a language) and there is no executable option in the list.

How do you run RoboHelp 11 from the ExtendScript GUI?

I had a lot of problems connecting initially.

Willam made a couple of suggestions here.

Extendscript Toolkit - Cannot launch Robohelp error

Probably try closing everything and re-booting. As I state at the bottom of that thread, it might take a few attempts and a weekend with the computer off to magically resolve the issue.

If you only want to launch RoboHelp, click the red link icon and RoboHelp will start. IF it doesn't, try restarting your pc as Amebr suggests.

Thanks, all. I'll get back to this by Monday & let you know. I'm glad to know about the FrameMaker forum.

Maybe Willam will see this one – I don’t know enough about scripting; you may want to check out the Scripting forum over in the FrameMaker section – ExtendScript is used much more over there
