Hi,I have generated an output using Responsive HTML5 with Charcoal Grey as the skin choice.My company wants the Search Engine to be implemented within the Topic which happens to be my front page (Index.htm). Does RoboHelp support the implementation of Search Engine within the Topic (Index.htm)?
I am currently running Adobe Robohelp version 10. I have several different RH files that I manage (desk procedures) and in each of the ones that I manage, my latest publishings have broken search functions. What I mean by broke: it will search some words just fine, but others that I know are in my desk procedures show "no topics found". Some of my files are published using webhelp and some webhelp pro, with the same problem.I have done the following:1) Gone back to a backed up file dated 05/01/2014 (that the search seems to be working just fine in) and done edits to it, published and it breaks the search.2) I have gone back to the working 05/01/2014 file and done nothing to it except publish it and it breaks.3) Checked the button to clear the cache4) From Webhelp Settings Option I have:· Changed output folder that it publishes to (which is on a local drive before I transfer it to the network drive)· &nbs
I’m having trouble changing the skin applied to my WebHelp project in RoboHelp 2015. I have a project with a corporate skin applied. Now I need to use an entirely different skin (not a modified version of my existing skin). How do I apply the new skin to my project? I have the new skin in the Skin Gallery and I can select it from the Output Settings. When I generate the help I get the old look and feel. My current skin is NOT in the gallery and I cannot select it in the Output Settings but it is always applied to the project. So how do I change the skin used?This cannot be that hard to do. The help says that after the skin is in the gallery I can select it and use it for the output. Not that I can tell.
Can you tell me what the difference in Responsive HTML5 and Multiscreen HTML5 is? I googled and both say they are good for viewing documentation on multiple devices. Which is most correct to use for viewing across many platforms?Thank you,Michele

Hello everyone,I have a user manual that is more than 400 pages long, its style is really simple and singular in every single page. Yet whenever I try to import it within Robohelp it slows down and stays a long time, then stops working.I tried the same thing with the PDF version of the document but it also crashes.Is that a general problem with Robohelp and long Word and PDF files or what exactly?RH 2015 worked well when I imported a 63 page Word document, so I was wondering whether it is possible to divide a document this big to many pieces and then put them together with the same TOC, and how can I do that efficiently?Thanks a lot in advance!A
Hi,In Robohelp 12.0.3 release, cross references to illustrations (in the document or in tha table of illustration) are not imported from MS WORD 2010 document.

RoboScreenCap. 2.0 (via RoboHTML 11) on Windows 7.This is an intermittent problem, but really aggravating when it happens. I finally decided to see if anyone in this forum knows how to solve it!I will be using RoboScreenCap - with no problems - when suddenly it will stop allowing me to select and drag, or paste and drag, content in a capture. As soon as I start to drag whatever I have selected or pasted, it simply disappears.Sometimes restarting my computer will fix this problem, but sometimes not. Does anyone know how to fix this annoying problem? Thanks.
We're publishing content using RH2015 and sometimes (sporadically), if the user types a keyword on the Index tab, it doesn't scroll the user to the requested topic or even the first letter of the search term. The user still has to manually scroll down and hope to find their search term.
RoboHelp 2015 (12.0.2.384)Unable to delete empty folders. I get a "Could not find this item" error message. Tried deleting in Project Manager, Explorer, and DOS.
I just upgraded to RH 2015 and about half of my links are not working. I tried reimporting the document, but that didn't fix anything.
Is there a way always show TOC in output for WebHelp? My team doesn't like clicking Show.

Dell Precision 5810Running RH 2015 latestWindows 64We are starting up a new WPF application and want to do Responsive HTML5 output.We also want to do context sensitive help (CSH), where the help topic opens up on pane that slides out from the side when user presses F1 or clicks a help button.I looked at this documentation:Adobe RoboHelp 11 * Program Help for web pagesIs that the recommended way to do CSH for HTML5 output? (I didn't see HTML5 output listed specifically in the CSH documentation that RH provides.)Do we do it as described in the link above and use use map numbers and alias files as usual?Or is CSH for HTML5 handed in some other way?
Hi,Has anyone see this error message when you click on a compiled FlashHelp topic? :"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in ..." and then it gives a path and line number.I already have the "Convert RoboHelp-edited topics to HTML" option checked in RoboHelp.I had this issue a few years ago and I was able to fix it by copying the content of the topic and pasting it into a new topic, but this is now not working.Would appreciate any help or suggestions, thanks!

Hi,I added an addTextToCopy() function to my topics in RoboHelp 2015 and the FlashHelp output works in every browser except for Internet Explorer. I tested the function on a test site and it works fine ... it is only in the FlashHelp output that the function does not work in IE. Would appreciate any ideas!Thanks,AVPS : Just in case, this is the script :<script language="javascript">function addTextToCopy() { var selection = window.getSelection(), pagelink = '<br><br> My copyright text', copytext = selection + pagelink, newdiv = document.createElement('div'); newdiv.style.position = 'absolut
Hi, When opening a particular project in RoboHelp I get a message "The path "d:" is too long and will be deleted from the project." The delete doesn't seem to work as I get this message every time I open the project. Has anyone else come across a similar error message? It doesn't seem to be causing any problems but it is annoying. Thanks, Greig
HelloI have the problem that the hyperlinks in the index do not work with Chinese characters. The characters are always interpreted as special characters. Is there a trick on how to use Chinese characters in the index?Version: Robohelp 2015greetings
Is there a way I can take the search index created by RoboHelp and write my own javascript to connect? I tried to hack the filed whfform.htm & whfbody.htm but all the js includes got really confusing. I would like to create my own simple HTML page with a search box. Have the function on the search box get the results from the RoboHelp collection and repaint the results div. I am using version 10.
How can I edit the meta tag that gets inserted when generating the HTML5 responsive layout (see below)? I need to get that unescaped > out of there because it has negative effects on linked programs, but can't find where to edit this setting in RoboHelp. I don't have breadcrumbs on the page and I don't see any option to disable breadcrumbs in the HTML5 layout.< meta name="topic-breadcrumbs" content="Administration > Customer Management" / >I found a SSBreadCrumbSeperator element in the HTML5 ssl file, but changing this did nothing to change the output, it still has the unescaped > character in it.I'm using Robohelp 2015 (12.0.3.428).
Hi,I need your assistance. In my responsive HTML5 output, I notice a border around the content topic.Is there a way to remove the border or margin around the topic so that it looks consistent across the topic page?Your help is much appreciated.Thanks.Regards,Kai
I am working with a fairly old help file, imported from (I think) Robohelp 7. All the pages are topped with a banner that uses 'Heading 1'. I need to change the colours of 'Heading 1' to match corporate policy. I have updated the relevant CSS file. I have updated all pages to make sure they are referencing the correct CSS file. On pages that I have written since I took on the task, the new colours are applied as I would hope - albeit at design time, with a strange pattern of diagonal lines on the background colour.The problem is with the older pages. Whilst they also use 'Heading 1', they appear to have a font attribute placed over the top of the embedded style. This means they do not inherit the white lettering of my new style, they remain black, which renders them unreadable against my new background colour. If I right click on an affected heading, I can 'remove attribute' and the black text turns white as per the CSS. However there are far too many pages thus affected for me to addr
Hello,I am using RoboHelp 2015 and in Responsive Layout output, I need to re-arrange these tabs. I want the Dynamic Content Filter tab to be displayed before ToC. Is it possible to re-sequence the Filter tab before the ToC tab by doing some backend work in code or CSS?Or the other enhanced way - if we select filters say - Sales, then the Sales related topics should be displayed (rather expanded below it - just like Expanding Text).Is it possible to customize Responsive Layout in this way?--ThanksKshitija
