In HTML view (RoboHelp 9) extra spaces are appearing between words in the code.  This does not affect the regular text, only the code.  Any suggestions to get rid of the extra spaces?

This started after I deleted my output files to fix a search error (the ol' failed to initialize database error). I created my outputs again, and now I can't get the hyperlinks in the master page to appear in the published version. This appears in the working version on my hard drive, and the uploaded version (where I discovered the issue) on SharePoint. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

In RoboHelp 10 I created a second Index that I want to use called "Index - Windows".The original Index named "AppHelp (Default) - Index" includes hundreds of topics that are absolute garbage as a result of creating it with the Index Wizard! But I cannot delete this because the Delete choice is grayed out. What do I do to get rid of this (or empty it of all content without deleting one thing at a time?)Also, why is the Index list not in alphabetical order? How can I force the topics into alphabetical order?

Is it possible to create more of a flowchart look/design in RoboHelp including 1-2 levels of information, rather than a help system?

Hello all,Sorry for double-posting, I think I posted in the wrong forum so am reposting here:I have generated a merged webhelp project as per the instructions at:http://www.wvanweelden.eu/blog/2013/02/28/adobe-robohelp-creating-merg ed-webhelpThe output help file is quite large. I can run it without issues on my PC. However, when I copy it to a server, it does load, the TOC pane appears empty until I click around a few times in the help. Is there any way to fix this?Thanks!

I want to upgrade my RH 9 to RH 11 but before doing that want to know if the move involves any changes in the project file or for the developers in terms of coding, help linking or map IDs.

We imported a RH8 project into RH9 on another computer. For the most part, it went smoothly; however, for some images and hyperlinks, we get the message: The image file "___.jpg" used in "______.htm" is outside of the current project and will not be shown in Project Manager.Additionally, there are approximately 20 broken links displayed in the Broken Links tab.Your suggestions would be appreciated as we have multple huge projects we need to upgrade. Thanks

Robo Source Control 3.1 : History and change reports are allways empty. I only see titles on the file report.htm (using IE9 or Google Chrome).

Hi all,I have benn previously using the Open Toolkit to generate Javahelp from DITA content. This worked fine but process changes force me to try out Robohelp.The main problem is that Robohelp creates awfully structured HTML output and relies on CSS to streighten the formatting. Particularly with lists this does not work in Javahelp. For example, if you have a list in 2nd order (within another lists) then Robohelp creates two flat lists and simply increases the margins of what is intended to be the list bullets in 2nd order.It seems that any margin-left attributes do not work in Javahelp. Does anybody have experiences with getting the Robohelp output to work in the Javahelp viewer?Robert

I am just wondering because I've been told it's a Word 7 issue and I have not seen anything in the forum on this.  I know there are not a lot of us still using RH for Word, but there are enough of us that someone else must have come accross this issue.

Please let me know the pricing models of RoboHelp. I am interested in buying a couple of licenses, and hence need to know the available models and the cost details.Thanks

I need to know whether RoboHelp 10 can deal with old win help projects (,hpj) and their output files (.hlp) because i have so many help files in this format and i need to upgrade robohelp version from RoboHelp 6 to RoboHelp 11 and i want to make sure it will open (.hpj) files and convert (.hlp) files to (chm) or webhelp .. one more inquiry; how many users are allowed to use RoboHelp 11 License at a time? My current version (6) allows 3 users, so i need to know about RoboHelp 11, but unfortunately their helpdesk did not answer me nor could i talk to the sales team on phone. Thanks

My question is:How many users are allowed to use a RoboHelp License at a time? If i upgrade fro RoboHelp 6 to RoboHelp 11, how many users can use this software in my office?

I am using RoboHelp HTML Version 11 with Windows 7 Enterprise/Service Pack 1. My problem is with generating HTML help files. It appears to generate and I get the message that it ran successfully. It even generates the CHM file, but when I click on a topic, nothing happens. The topics don’t open at all. The TOC books do, but not topics. I do get a compiling warning  “The size of the stop file has to be limited in 512 bytes.” I have no clue what the stop file is. Did a quick search but didn’t find anything useful other than another user a few years ago who had the same issue and same warning. Unfortunately, I did not see resolution posted. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Our IT department recently did a company-wide system upgrade to Windows 7 and ever since then I am receiving the following message when I try to access my project:  This project is from a newer version of the program.  This project is no longer compatible with this version.  Please make sure you have the newest version installed.   What exactly is the message stating?  I have been unable to access my RH project since 3/3/14 since our IT department has been unable to assist me with this error.  They just keep stating to locate where you are saving your files.  I have and am receiving this message.  Thanks in advance for any input.

Hi,Where can I find a good tutorial/manual on RoboSource Control? The help included with the source control is pretty cryptic to say the least.I managed to install RoboSource Control, and my team has been using it all these years. But I've never delved into the more powerful features like Pinning, Tagging, Branching, whatnot. As our team consists of multiple writers working on the same project, the source control works transparently, enabling us to complete our task, but I've been rather scared of doing anything more than that. The help doesn't say much. Nor does Google.Any help, pointers would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Ajay

I am updating a project in RoboHelp 10. During this process I have deleted some topics that were out of date. It seems that I did this the wrong way since I now have broken links that refers to these topics. (I’m quite sure they were used for context sensitive help.) They are of no use and I want to delete them but can’t figure out how. Grateful for any input on this!

I do not want to use a Glossary or Index, only TOC and Search for my help system. Can I turn off the glossary and index buttons with the Responsive HTML5 output?I deselected those two items in Project Set-up - Windows - main - properties. But that seems to affect Web Help but not Responsive HTML5.Is there a way to do this?Thanks.

Hi folks,On a windows 7 platform, connecting to a Windows 2008 server with SQLExpress2005 for RoboSource Control 3.1.I wanted to start a new WebHelp website, and so went on to the SQL server and used the Robosource Server Configurator to create it.  No problem.But when I went onto my windows 7 computer to create a connection using RoboSource Control 3.1 Explorer, I open the Open RoboSource Database windowGo into the  "Or Create a New Connection"  section.Enter the fields like I have done for twenty other projects.Click Create Connection and I get the message box:  Invalid Object Name 'NG3 Node'I can open and work with all the existing databases, I just cannot create a new connection.I did see the post about using the same logins, not quite sure that I understand this.  I have computer ==> server on network.

Hi,I'm running on a trial version of RH11 to test a few things before we upgrade.I imported a webhelp project from RH9 to RH11.  When the generated project is viewed locally on Chrome, the toolbar on the skin does not display as expected.  The order of the buttons in wrong.  The buttons display correctly when viewed in IE11.In Chrome, the "powered by" About button displays between 2 buttons (index & search) on the left side of the screen.  In IE11, the "powered by" About button displays correctly - on the far right of the screen.The order in whstart.js is:var gsToolbarOrder = "toc|custom21369|idx|custom18272|blankblock|banner";Why doesn't Chrome follow this order? Any other files I should check....?The same project generated in RH9 doesn't display locally in Chrome, so this is a new issue to me using RH11....Also in Chrome, the "about" window displays the file path of the whskin_banner.htm file under the window's header.tested using Chrome version 33.thanks!

Is there a way to change the font formatting for the default style (none) so that it is not Times New Roman?I converted a large project (2143 pages) from RoboHelp 7 to RoboHelp 10 and it appears that half of my content didn't have a style assigned to the paragraph.  Now I'm being forced to go and touch each one of the pages to force the Normal font.  I see the properties on the (none) style for my style sheet are all dimmed out.

We recently upgraded to RH10 from RH7 and now use Windows 7 operating system. When we compiled the project in RH10 (Microsoft_HTML_Help), duplicate images were displaying in all of the files. In addition, the WebHelp had graphics missing.Is this a problem with Windows 7, RoboHelp 10 on Windows 7? I am doing all of this on my local drive.
