Resizing the Topic Pane - RH8

Question

Hello everyone,I recently received a request to resize my WebHelp display for direct inclusion on an application page (as opposed to by opening from a separate browser window via clicking the "Help" link). I was given specific pixel width dimensions for both the Navigation (left) and Topic (right) panes.So, after researching the forums, www.grainge.org, and the "Skinny on Skins" sources, I have only figured out how to resize the Navigation pane. Can someone help me locate how to limit my topic content to 614px? If I can get the text to wrap within this area, I will be all set.Using RH8.0.2, Windows XPThank you so much!!TabbyW

Hi,You can set the size of the entire help in the window properties. If you call the help by that window, you'll have the correct size. You have fixed the TOC width already, so just add that width to the 614 pixels you still need.Alternatively, you can resize the browser window with window.resizeTo( width,height ). Just copy this script in a page and it will resize the browser to the dimensions specified. If you want to use this script, you best use it in a file that is always loaded. (The first file of the _csh file.)Greet,Willam
