Robohelp 2015 has a CSH Test tool to test my topics for context sensitivity. Is there anything similar to this in Robohelp 2022 version, or is there any better way to test my topics for context sensitivity in Robohelp 2022?

 

Thanks,

Anand

    Adobe had advised me that's where the API is but looking in the folders, what's missing is the tool to run it. I'll ask Adobe for more information.

    I don't believe the CSH Test tool made into New UI.

     

    For web based outputs, you should be able to set up a standalone htm file that contains a link using the relevant map id url format for your output (as per Peter's page). You'd point the path to the generated output. Then when you want to test a topic you'd change the mapno in the link and see if the correct topic opened. At least, that's the theory, I haven't tried it myself.

     

    For CHM files, if that's your output, I think you're out of luck. (Although, I think the tool should still work though, as the chm format itself hasn't changed. So if you can install RH2015 alongside RH2022+ you should still be able to run the CSH Test tool on your RH2022 generated chms.)

    Look under CHMs at the end of this page. https://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh_tour/rh2022/outputs/calling_csh_help.htm

    The information on how to use the API is in my link above. What's missing is the easy way to use it!
