Can the TOC font size be changed in the Theme 1 Standard responsive layout.? I can change the actual font but can't see an option to change font size which I think is very odd.?Any way to do this?

Hello RHelpers,We're updating our home/default page on our chm, and we'd like to add a nice fat Search box directly onto the htm page. Is it possible to do this somehow? Or is the only way to search in a chm is to use the tri pane tab?We're using RH 9.

I have been trying out different methods but have had no luck so far, thanks for your time.

My index is not displaying its subcategories properly when I generate Web Help in RoboHelp 2015. The subcategories appear correctly when I generate the same help file set in HTML help (chm file). Any thoughts on why this is occurring?Thanks in advance for your help.Tom Hrkach

Hi, I am working on a project where there is a pool of shared topics among 2-3 master projects. So for each master project, I include the shared topics from the resource manager and link to them where appropriate. Some shared topics have hyperlinks pointing to other shared topics and sometimes also to the master. The problem I am facing is... when I create my WebHelp, only the first link works i.e. The hyperlink from a topic in master to shared#1 works ... but the link in shared#1 to shared#2 or shared#1 to master doesn't work. It seems the WebHelp can't find the page. How do I get this to work?Thanks.

A few tream members in my department had RoboSource removed a few weeks ago because for some reason, it was causing Windows Explorer to crash, consistently. Is there a chance that there are residual files which remain in their computers that could affect current projects? I looked in the registry, and it does not appear that the remaining RoboSource data should have any impact at all. However, my team is asking that I assure that any residual RoboSource related files on old projects will not “reinfect” the current projects they are working on. My question is this: If the registry does not show any residual files, wouldn’t that mean that the program itself is gone? Wouldn't any residual files (if they remain) be dependent on the program being installed to have any impact?

We are currently using MS Word and planning to have context sensitive Online Help, I proposed for Robohelp but my developer is saying, if we can generate HTML free of cost, what is the point to invest in Robohelp?

I have a question regarding topics, books and tocs. I have a project that somebody else created, and my task is to create a new topic and add it to the TOC. I have created the topic, but when I generate the CHM to see the project it does not appear in the TOC. I have already tried updating the TOC. What I guess (my guess) could be the problem is the "topic links", when I see the topic links of the other (old) topics they seem to have a link to the principal book, but mine the new one does not. Could you help me!??' thank you!!!

We are using RH 10.  Much of our text contains curvy quotes (ascii character set is & # 8 2 1 7 ; without the spaces).  If a user performs a string search that contains a straight single quote (ascii character set is & # 3 9 ; without the spaces) in place of the curvy single quote (e.g., "customer's assigned branch" with single quote in the search box to find "customer’s assigned branch" with curvy quote in the topic), the WebHelp search does not find the topic.Questions: Is there a way to make the search treat the single quote and curvy quote the same (or ignore the single quote altogether)?  If not, what is the best way to go about performing a search-and-replace, keeping in mind this is likely to require multiple updates to just about every topic in the RH project?Thanks!

In robohelp 11, is there a way to assign a window specifically to a topic page like there is in Robohelp 7? When in robohelp7, if you go to Topic properties for a Topic, and in the general tab you will see a "Window" field with a drop down... We are wondering if robohelp 11 also has this?

I am trying Robohelp 2015. I have MS Word 2007 installed. While trying to output a printed documentation, I recieve error:  "Cannot Find Microsoft Word Installed on Your System"

RoboHelp HTML 2015I dropped my mouse. Project was open and I was editing a topic. I dropped my mouse . . . and here's what happened. I exited without saving and came back in . . now all topics display as this. Any idea on how to restore to Normal view?

I’m using RoboHelp 10 HTML to publish WebHelp onto a network server. I have 11 merged projects consisting of about 3100 topics. After several years of using this method, all of a sudden, I am unable to link to topics within other projects merged under the same parent. I can create external links outside the merged help as usual. This occurs regardless of the project I’m working on. When I use the Hyperlink dialog, I select Link to: ‘File’ and browse to the desired topic. I click the ‘Open’ button to return to the Hyperlink dialog. When I click the ‘OK’ button, nothing happens, except a change of color indicating I am making contact with the button. I have searched the forums and none of the scenarios/solutions seem to match my dilemma. I reinstalled RoboHelp on my PC.  I tried deleting the old CPD file. None have resulted in a solution.

Just wondering if Adobe is offering any comparable alternative to the CHM output file (as Microsoft Security Update 896358 will not allow CHM's to work when placed on the network)?I'd install it locally, but as I understand the security issue, the CHM remains a security risk if installed on the client.WebHelp is not currently an option in my situation (can't host the files). I know there are workarounds, but I'm not to enthused about the registry edits outlined in the link below, either, and as this post points out, the CHM remains a security risk even if you are willing to engage in registry edits:CHM Files Not WorkingAnyone know if Adobe has, or is planning to, provide another option?Thanks,Josh

While comparing our BSSCDefault.h to the client's list of map IDs, and found that some IDs listed in the RH Edit Map IDs dialog do not appear in the BSSCDefault.h file.I didn't find this exact problem in the archives, but in a few other Map ID topics I found that Peter Grainge suggested checking the Map ID Report (e.g.Re: Mapped topic names missing in Map ID dialog).When I look at the report, the ID is there. Peter, are you saying that looking at the BSSCDefault.h file in an external text editor is not accurate, and it will work as long as it is showing in the report?

I'm using RoboHelp HTML11.I've been looking for a way to isolate changed files from a generated projectThe team currently sends everything, old & new, to the server guys in a zip file. The server guys have asked us to send them only new files repeatedly.My current fix is to publish to a local directory, which is preserved, and use excel Macros to take any files newer than a timestamp (which I set just before generation). Then it's zipped and sent off as before.Can't publish directly to the server. Don't have the permissions, and can't get them . Policy reasons as I understand it.Is there a better way to do this?I'll probably be switching to a shell script if robohelp can't do it on it's own.

Hi all,I'm curious if this is 'By Design' or something I'm doing...?   I have a project that is an in depth Administrators guide.  I've used Conditional Build Tags to block out most of the Administrator and Support information (server names, API data flow charts etc) to create a Users guide for the app as the GUI and app behavior is covered along with the back end information.I can publish this project to it's own folder set (Pathed \\server\share\RH_Projects\UserGuide... as opposed to \\server\share\RH_Projects\AdminGuide...) when I publish and set the conditional build and it seems to work well.  The TOC is correct and the additional information and topics don't show in the project.  However, if I search for an API name or a server name it still pulls up the topics that were tagged to NOT be included in the build.  Looking in the UserGuide folders I see the topics that I didn't want in the build are still being moved into the output folder and am wonderi

I am trying to generate a .docx file using RoboHelp HTML version 11, but RH keeps getting stuck at 'Saving <file name>. Any ideas?

Hi,Did a quick search to see if this question has been posted and answered before in a RoboHelp forum. I'm sure Peter Grainge, the RoboHelp guru, will know the answer.I'm  having scripting problems trying to print a .chm file on my computer. Not all .chms on my computer have the problem. Only this particular one that a developer gave to me that he produced from Sandcastle. I want to print the entire .chm contents to PDF.When I click Print on the .chm toolbar and choose "Print the selected topic" in the Print topics dialog box,All works as expected. I can choose the Adobe PDF printer as my printer and create a PDF.However, if I try to print by selecting Print the selected heading and all subtopicsI get a ton of scripting errors, like this one:Is this something I can fix on my side or does the developer need to change settings in Sandcastle? I thought it might be the hhctrl.ocx Active X control on my machine, but it exists on my machine and seems to be registered.I know this a RoboH
