Question

rhsnippet.apj & rhvariable.apj issue

Hello Everyone,

I found following issue. If you know following issue and you know how to avoid this issue, please reply.

Procedure for Reappearance

    1. Opening a project file in Robohelp.
    2. There is no update in Robohelp.
    3. Closing a project file.

Expected Result

rhsnippet.apj and rhvariable.apj are NOT updated.

Actual Result

rhsnippet.apj and rhvariable.apj are updated.

Comparing these files between before update and after update, I found that order of snippet and variable written in these files are changed.

Problem

The Robohelp source data is editted by multi authors, and we are using subversion for manage the source data. So we are encountering confiction by this issue, when we commit or update source data to subversion.

Robohelp Version

Robohelp 9.0.2

Best Regards.

Simplying opening a project and closing it should not update the variables or snippets. I'm wondering if you have a variable somewhere that is using the auto-update feature (e.g. date / time) and that this is causing the variable to be updated. Maybe this is also used inside a snippet? Can you confirm or deny this?

Hello,

Sorry for late reply.

I do not use the auto-update feature.

I use variables in a snippet.

Problem is that order of each variable or snippet written in the file is changed automatically, when the file is saved.

We are managing rhsnippet and rhvariable in SVN, so we are not able to see the difference between each revision.

This would appear to be related to using Version Control. Moving the thread to the Version Control forum category where hopefully those more familiar with your system will see it.
