RH2020.5.71 Unable to delete Index Keywords

Hello everyone,

 

I am updating an old Robohelp Classic document to RH2020 however I am having issues with my Index. Some of the formatting was changed when converting over (it appears due to using colons in the original Keywords) and during my attempts to edit the Keywords in question the Keyword reverts to their original state. I then tried deleting the old Keywords and upon deleting them they instantly reappear in my Index. I am able to add new Keywords and Topics but appear unable to edit or delete old ones. Could my Index keywords be locked in some way? Or is this a bug?

 

RH2020.5.71 on Windows 10.

 

Thanks,

Sean

    You can also delete entries from Topic Properties. See if that method works.

    Thanks Peter!

     

    I was able to delete them through the Topic Properties and it generated correctly. Wish they would cooperate and let me just edit them but luckily I only have a few entries to redo.

     

    Didn't notice the insert images my first time around but I realized I did it wrong after posting the question.

     

    Cheers,

    Sean
