Query on context-sensitive help

Hi Guys, I’m using RoboHelp to implement window-level context help in to our product. Pressing F1 to get the corresponding help topic is working fine, but one ‘nice touch’ we’d like is to not only display the help topic but to highlight the ‘found’ help topic in the Contents pane – so you can see where the help topic is in the Contents.  At the moment, it’s simply the first book in the Contents pane that’s highlighted. Does anyone know if I can do this? Thanks, Nicky

    Check how you've set the Synchronize Table of Contents setting in the SSL layout. I think that's the one that snaps the focus to the correct topic in the ToC when the right pane is displaying the topic's content.

    Thanks Jeff - you pointed me in the right direction. It was the Auto-Synchronize

    setting on the window layout.

    Nicky.
