Managing Mapping IDs

Hello All,

I have merged 2 individual projects to form a master project. In the master project I'm not able to assign Map IDs.

Few points to note:

1. I have assigned map IDs in individual child projects.

2. I have generated the webhelp seperately for the child projects.

Kindly let me know how to manage mapping IDs in merged project.

Thanks,

Panendra P.

Hi Panendra,

When you were publishing the child project, did you select the Map Files your created in Child project which had topics assigned to respective Map IDs.

Ideally, if the above scenario has been taken of, you should have your Master Project work as a Context Sensitive help.

Thanks,

Hi Anjaneai,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I did select the map files while generating the webhelp for the child projects. But, still I'm not getting merged map IDs in my master project.

And also, can you please let me know th process to merge projects. This is only to compare my step with the proposed one.

Thanks,

Panendra P.

Hi,

You can read up on merged help at: http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/merging_webhelp/merged_help.htm

Calling merged help works just as calling regular Webhelp:

Are the id's you use unique? Make sure you don't have id 1 defined in both the master project and in the child project.

Greet,

Willam
