RoboHelp

My reference book, Adobe RoboHelp 2022: The Essentials, is a bit useless at times ... like now. In RH2012, the skin we used looked like this: So, is there a similar option in RH2022? I can't seem to find it. Of course, it needn't be identical to this, but we'd like something...   Title amended by Moderator to improve searches

We are using RoboHelp HTML version X5, and we use version control. We are trying to figure out how to create a copy of a project so we can edit the new version with the old version remaining intact. That way we could have multiple versions of our help system, a distinct version for each software release we have. Thanks.

Hi,Does someone know if it is posible to change the tocs and topics images  in the frameless output in Robohelp 2022?If it is possible how can I do that? Thanks

I am using spell check in RoboHelp 2020 in a large project with over 400 topics. I have Spell Check set to Look in All Topics. When I select Run Spell Check, RoboHelp opens every topic, checks spelling, and stops whether there is a misspelled word or not. I have to select Skip on every topic. Is there a way to set it up so that it only opens and stops in topics with misspelled words? If there is no misspelled word, I would like it to move on to the next topic and not have to select Skip each time. I have Application Preferences set to check Run spell checking on opening a topic, but I'm not sure if that affects this or not.

I am creating  help content in RoboHelp 2022. I have a image in my header and when i click on that image , a default page should open. I have created a default page and added that page as a link in Header Logo URL. I am generating a Responsive output for my project as that is my requirement.When i test from my local i am able to see the default page when i click on the image. When i deploy it to server and test it, its not showing the default page. It is still showing some other page which is not there in my application at all. Is there any other configuration that has to be done for this?

I converted an old, rather large 2017 RoboHelp project into V2019. The project has all text in bold. I checked the css file and the masterpage and can't determine where the bold effect is being set. I can look at the souce code and see the bold tag. How do I turn off the bold (without manually modifing all the source code for each topic)? If I highlight the text it does not show the bold option as being set, but when I enter new text it is all in bold. What am I missing that I can't determine how the bold effect is being set throughout all the topics.  Thanks.

Is there a code scan in RoboHelp (i.e., looking for empty tags, multiple span tags on content, etc.)?     I've been noticing when our team has edited, we are getting these types of code issues and looking for a quick way to find them and fix them without having to review the code line by line.     

Hi I'm trying to link a .docx file and map Word styles and have been following the instructions at: https://www.grainge.org/RoboHelp_Tour/rh2022/authoring/importing_linking.htm   Each time I attempt it I come up against problems and have traced it to the contents of default.wsf needing to be edited manually e.g. there's a typo with spelling of "heirarchy" in the default code, however when I re-import all my manual edits to the file disappear and I am perplexed as to why.   Please see the attached PDF file particluarly the highlighted sections for details.   Any help would be much appreciated as I've been beating my head against for a while now.

Hello, again!Now that we've (you've) solved the import and skins issues, can we tackle the search issue I'm having, i.e., it doesn't work.In RH2017, I could click the Search button and enter into the text box any word I wanted to find, and if it existed anywhere in the project, I would see a list of which topic and page it could be found.Now, when I test the Search tab and look for a word I know is in the project (e.g., a topic title), I get No Topics Found.Was gibt?Thanks for any help anyone can provide...Lon

Hello Robohelp community. I'm sorry if this is a duplicate question, but I didn't see anything that was exactly like my scenario. I am trying to publish our robohelp "webhelp" project to our server and I keep getting the message "Warning: Failed to publish to "generic name web server". reason: The password was not allowed. Our technicians have assured me that the Host Name, Port, Password and UserID we are using is correct. We are using FTP Protocols. I am stumped. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. 🙂

As stated in the subject line ...  FrameMaker comes with a built-in editor for styling its HTML5 output, but it is not a very efficient editor. Is it possible to build a skin from scratch using RoboHelp which can be applied in FrameMaker?

Hi all,I'm am facing the following problem.:The export from RoboHelp to Word is failing everytime and I have no clue why... before the export is failing the log show the following:Has some an idea, what autodid not return a double is meaning and how i could solve it?

I have used RoboHelp (v 2022.3.93) to export XLIFFs of our web content for language translation. After testing out the translation with a couple different independent tools then importing the XLIFFs back into RoboHelp, I'm finding that the translated content is missing (blank). One vendor has told me they are unable to parse the sample XLIFF files I provided (in the format generated by RoboHelp). Wondering if others have encountered this problem - the process I'm using doesn't seem outrageously complex. We'd like to use machine translation as a starting point and then have native speakers within our organization perfect this. However if the translations aren't visible after re-importing the XLIFFs then the process is obviously not usable. I would appreciate any advice. Thank you.

I'm in the process of changing our help to use a template based on the TopNavigation frameless template. In that template there is a logo in the upper left corner that is also a link to the home page. Most of our clients use a white-label version of our site, so there is no logo for application.  I'd like to remove that image and the link but haven't been able to. I've created a black logo that blends in with the background so you don't see a logo. However, when you tab through the site, you still go to that black logo.

Robohelp 2022 - I need to delete the tile images so we can replace  with a different image or at the very leaset, just set a background color for the tiles to get an idea of what we want to do, but I have deleted the tile images for both Blue Lagoon and Oceanic frameless templates, and nothing changes.  They stay exactly same as they were  before I deleted the picture.   To do this I'm going to the Oceanic Template editor and I click on Home Page/TOC Tiles/Image Box and remove toc_default_tile.svg from Image Path.  When I do that, nothing happens.  When that didn't work, I tried to add a background color (gold) but still nothing happened. Also, while I'm at it, I have no idea when it happened, but if you look at the last screenshot it shows my search box is now sitting on top of the caption "How Can We Help" on the HomePage.  I've tried many things to get it to move with no luck.  Any help would be appreciated. How do I make this h

Longshot question, but is there an easy way to rename multiple files names (not topic names) in bulk without breaking links? I'm using RH 2022.0.346
