Losing Map ID function in WebHelp to CHM Transfer

Question

Hello!

I am using RoboHelp 10 and when I transfer my project from WebHelp to a CHM file using the converter tool in RoboHelp I end up losing my context sensitive mapping. If I generate the file directly as a CHM file everything is fine, however, I was hoping to do it this way to retain certain esthetic feature I can only get by generating the WebHelp first.

If any of you could provide any guidance on what I might have done wrong that would be wonderful! Thank you!

Are you using the WebHelp in a CHM script? In that case, the context sensitivity is still in the WebHelp, it's only packaged in a CHM. The CHM itself does not have any context sensitivity. The workaround for this is to let your developers call the HTML file they want by file name instead of using the regular CSH call for a CHM. No easy fix I'm afraid.

Kind regards,

Willam
