No option to enable AND search?

Hi,

I'm very new to RoboHelp 2017 and am currently working on my first project. I want to optimize the help search to let users restrict the search results further.

According to the RoboHelp 2017 documentation, there should be an option to "enable AND search" ((the checkbox which restricts search results to topics which include all search terms). However, I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I looked in the responsive HTML5 SSL Layout setup dialog, as well as in the layout itself (we are using the responsive Indigo layout). Can somebody point me in the right direction where I can enable this function? Or is this function not available at all for Indigo?

Thanks a lot.

According to your link, AND search is for WebHelp, WebHelp Pro & AIRHelp.

On a second reading, I guess you're right. That's a pity .

However, isn't the RoboHelp 2017 help itself also a responsive HTML5 output? And they have the checkbox "Display results with all search words" in their help output (see screenshot below, taken just now). So how did they get this checkbox then? Or is the RoboHelp online help a different kind of output?

It's probably a home-rolled solution, but you could try playing with other SSL layouts to see if different ones offer the AND search feature you're looking for (I haven't got a copy of RH2017 at hand to check).
