RH 2020 - is microcontent in responsive outputs possible?

I tried microcontent in RH 2020 with frameless output and it works very well.

Is it not possible to implement microcontent in RH 2020 with Responsive html5 output?

The answer I received is below. 

 

The steps to add a chatbot or FAQ page are same as frameless output.
In fact, the FAQ page is possible in chm, word, pdf, epub outputs, just add mc file in the TOC.

Hello,

I am working on a HTML5 output and am also running into this issue. I would prefer to have my microcontent appear underneath the search bar like it does in the Frameless but am not having luck finding the settings or place in Robohelp that controls the search box.

Were you ever able to resolve your issue or get more information?

If you are using the same project that worked with frameless and the responsive preset is in most respects the same, from what I was told by the developers it should work.

 

The Compass Travel project you linked to is essentially the same as the Compass Travel sample project supplied with RoboHelp and that uses the Studio skin.

 

Beyond that I think you will need to take this up with Support as this is all very new and we are learning bit by bit.

 

See https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#robohelp for your support contact options.

 

Is there a particular reason for wanting to make this work in a responsive skin? Going forward there will be more features added to frameless skins.

I tried updating RH 2020 to the latest update. Then tried microcontent with the Indigo layout. The search results appear in the right pane and not as microcontent would. When I click the first search result it displays the .mc file contents in the search results.

Am I missing something?

Just curious because in this example: http://showmethedemo.com/Compass_Travel/ the microcontent works perfect. And this is Responsive I guess.

I assume this question is coming from a failed attempt. To the best of my knowledge it isn't an option but I have asked for confirmation.
