Question

Search results not formatable

It is possible to format the search results.
However, when we do this in Robohelp 2020, it does not apply this formatting.

Is this a known bug or are we doing something wrong here?

Screenshots are attached

    Update 5 is due to be released very soon and it did not make it in time for that. Hopefully the next update whenever that may be. You will need to apply the fix in any project until then.

    Hello Peter,

     

    thanks for this workaround.

    Is this bug already been fixed in a future build version of RH?

    A bug fix is required and it's likely too late to miss the update due soon.

     

    Meantime I have been given this.

     

    For workaround, there should be a style rule defined in layoutDiff.css by the name below, please set the color inside this rule.

     

    You can change "red" to a hex or rgb value.

     

    .rh-layout-CUSTOM-SEARCHRESULTS .RH-LAYOUT-SEARCHRESULTS-results-inner-box .RH-LAYOUT-SEARCHRESULTS-result-item .RH-LAYOUT-SEARCHRESULTS-result-item-title {

    color: red;

    }

    Correction. That field is working in other skins but seems to be broken in Top Navigation. Let's see if my contact confirms that.

    Thanks. I have reached out to a contact as it does not seem to work for this skin or any other.

    Not a bug I have seen anyone report here. Something has gone wrong with the upload of your images and they cannot be viewed. Please try again and use the photo icon to insert images within the post. Seeing an image inline with the text makes it easier for anyone answering or viewing the post.
