How do manage sort order of topics in RoboHelp 2019

I am making a small demo of how to make a cocktail in RoboHelp.

I have created topics for:

  • Description
  • Ingredients
  • Preparation
  • Serving

... but how do I manage sort order in the contents panel in Robohelp? I can name the html files 01, 02 etc but that does not change the sort order in the contents panel.

I stand to be corrected here, but the Contents panel is only the topics in the project. This is really confusing for long time RoboHelp users but it is what Adobe deemed should be the way moving forward.

I suspect you are more concerned with the Table of Contents, which is a different thing entirely than the Contents panel. The Table of Contents may be arranged as you want.

Cheers... Rick
