Question

RoboHelp 8 blow-up with right-click on TOC item

Does anyone know if this issue has been addressed by Adobe?

I am also having the issue -- whenever I right-click on the TOC column within RoboHelp 8 HTML, it gives me the previously reported error message and shuts the program down.  Not a horrible issue -- but I have lost work when I forgot that I can't do that action in this application.

Thanks,

Bob

    Hi Bob

    Is this an upgraded project? Does this happen in a new project or one of the samples?

    I'm confused by your mention of "TOC Column". Are you saying that you are right-clicking the TOC Column in the Topic List pod?

    Cheers... Rick

    No worries and you added something different.

    Reading the thread it looks to be a project specific problem as posters who have encountered say it is not with all projects. You can test by going to one of the samples. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

    Gravenstein posted her solution and I would start with just deleting the CPD and PSS files in a copy of the project.

    Thanks Peter,

    I opened up a new project, using the "MyCompany Savings and Loan Guide" P&P template, and it does allow me to right-click in the TOC window.

    If I do start deleting CPD and PSS files in a copy of the project, I know that the CPD file will be re-built automatically, but what needs to be done to re-create the PSS file?  Will it also be automatically rebuilt?

    Thanks,

    Bob
