RH9 overwrites CHM window size

In previous versions, I could specify a larger window size (exceeding 1024x768px) in the hhp file and then generate the CHM with these settings. Evidently this is not possible anymore with RoboHelp 9? When I change the hhp and save, then generate the CHM, the settings are overwritten by Robohelp.

Can anybody confirm?

There is another thread related to merged CHMs where the root problem is that it does not seem possible in RoboHelp 9 to make changes to the HHP stick.

My guess is this is related.

Contact me via my website. I can send you some instructions that will fix the override.

One question though, you state you did this via the HHP. Why not via the CHM dialog when you compile?

Hi Peter. I cannot find a contact link (or contact info) on http://www.grainge.org/ at the moment; maybe you are revamping your site? I believe I'm running into a need to not have RH9 overwrite the HHP, and it seems like from this post you have a solution? [I also commented on the thread at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/551443?tstart=1 with more information on my assumptions and situation]. Any help would be appreciated.
