Hi,

- I am using Robohelp 2020 (2020.7.46).

- I am also using Frameless preset for my output of the project.

- I am also using the Dynamic Content Filter with a few condition tags.

I want to generate an output, but once generated I want one of my condition tags (set from Filter tab) to be selected by default.

Is it even possible and how please?

Thank you very much for your prompt responce.

Regards,

Luke

You know your users better than I but the text above the filters can be whatever you want. Maybe change it to something painfully obvious. They'll only get it wrong once.

That defeats the whole purpose of filtering. There is no way I know of doing that as normally you would just generate an output with that content.

Thanks Peter for your feedback.

I know some of my consumers might accidently reset filter and under this scenario they will see all text (including Condition Tags) within a topic which might confuse them.

Hi Peter, This sounds like promising solution.

Now I have the following question:

Is it possible and how to hide or remove the Reset filters button that is used in the Dynamic Content Filter.

I want to keep the options within the Dynamic Content Filter and I want at least one option to be always selected.

Thank you in advance for your help.
