Remove "Click here to see this page link in full context" link in Robohelp 2107

Newbie TW here. I'm currently working on a HTML5 Online Help project where two main help systems share the same context sensitive help topics. The problem is I can only link the CSH topics to one main help. Removing the "Click here to see this page in full context" link located on the top right portion of the CSH window solves this problem. I would like to ask the experts here for help in locating which file to modify in order to remove the link. I'm using Robohelp 2017, btw.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi there

You can change this text by clicking the Project tab > Project Settings button > General tab > Advanced... button > Labels tab > Scroll to the [ResponsiveHelp] section and locate the  ShowTopicInContext= line. You are able to edit that line to contain what you want.

What I did was to open the Windows Character Map application (Windows key+R and type charmap into the field and press Enter).

In Character Map, type "zero width joiner" into the Search for: field and click the Search button. Then click the Select button followed by the Copy button. Then paste that character into the area to the immediate right o the ShowTopicInContext= bit.

When you generate the output, the text should not appear. But the area is still clickable to reveal the TOC and navigational elements.

Cheers... Rick

I have the opposite issue. I want the Show link to display in the topic area. How do I do that?

I don't see the ShowTopicInContext option. Using RH2017.

ChadPink​ You refer to the Show Link but the thread is about the "Click here to see this page link in full context". I think the first is what you get with WebHelp and the second is what you get with Responsive Help. Both occur when a topic is opened other than through the Start Page.

Double click a topic in File Explorer and you should see one message or the other without doing anything to your project.

Ooopppsss! My bad! I already have the show/hide topics link in place.

I am missing the Show link for the navigation pane (TOC). I can't find the option below when generating HTML5:
