Question

Looking for a different layout style

I am working with Robohelp 10 and producing Webhelp files.  I would like the appearance of the Help output to be similar to what I see in MS Word when I hit the Help question and go to their Online Help site.  It seems some of the overall format can be controlled by a skin but after trying several of them, I see that they are all following the same basic layout with the navigation on top left, the content/books on the left and the topic details on the right.  Is there any way to change this up and make it more like what I see in the more current MS Help files?  Are there skins available somewhere that have a different general layout to them then the ones I've seen?  Thanks for any of your ideas.

The “look” of the MS help is due to it not being a WebHelp format – it’s a MS help format that RH can’t directly produce (and only works, I believe, with software created through Visual Studio). You probably should be looking at responsive HTML5 help layouts (multi-screen HTML5 in RH10).
