RoboHelp

When we generate the help file using RHTML, it picks a random file and makes one of the characters uppercase (title case). It's happened twice now. For example, we have the topic filename Program_Summary_window.htm and it changed it to Program_Summary_Window.htm for the generated file. This works fine on my system either way but when our programmers take it, it doesn't "reference" properly. I'm guessing they are not taking a whole, "fresh" file but are merging it in with the old one from the last release, but I am waiting to hear from them. Regardless, how can we stop RH from changing the case in the filename? Why is it doing this? Is it taking the filename from the topic title (which is upper/lower, sentence case)? BUT for whatever reason, it's NOT doing that to others that are set up the same way. Also, last release (month), it did it to a different file. This release (month), it picked this file. We can't figure out why and when it's doing this. It seems to only pick one file each t

Hello, I have created a few WebHelp systems with RH 2019 and since the feature has been available I've been including the map Files in the Output, however, in all cases when the published version of the WebHelp is opened the first page shown is the default page and not the corresponding page. ie: When WebHelp was created with RH 2017 we could map the pages to our site so that if the user was on the "all about green" page of our system and pressed help they would be taken to the "all about green" topic. Right now no matter which page a user is when they press the Help button they get the default page.I would like to have this functionality in our Webhelps output from RH2019. I don't want the default page to open, I need the matching page to open.I know that in the first few versions of RH2019 Map Files were not at all included but it is now. Does it seem likely that the mapping isn't working yet, either buggy or not fully available, or are my developers making an error when they impleme

Good morning, I'm not even sure where to start honestly and I'm hoping you may be able to provide some advice.  Adobe has provided support previously and advised that the way our project structure is set up is not the way it was meant to work at all.  Here's the story.   We build internal KBs for our customer service department based on each client and plan.  We work with Medical health insurance so each plan will have it's own benefit structure like cost of copay for dr. visit etc. and plan materials.  The vast majority of the content is internal processes that are the same across the board.  These were literally all set up and pages copied into every project.  (lots of projects).  In 2015, we designated one plan as a "parent" for these internal processes, hyperlinked to the parent project, and set up external content search for the children plans so the search function would pull the topics that did not live withing the project anymor

Hello, I currently use: RoboHelp version 2022.2.22 Output: Frameless Skin: DarkOS: Windows 10 / 64 Bit And I have the following problem: I need to display the output in a browser (Chrome) in fullscreen mode. The browser's forward and backward buttons are not available to me because they are not visible in full-screen mode. So I want to create two topic page buttons for this that can be used as forward and backward buttons. I created the 2 buttons under “Theme buttons > add”, gave them names and also stored symbols. The keys appear correctly in the preview and in the output. Now I have entered the following for the buttons in the section under “Theme buttons > Javascript”: Page back key: window.history.back() Page forward key: window.history.forward() I then saved everything and regenerated and re-displayed the project using Frameless/Dark. The buttons are visible, the symbols are displayed but unfortunately the functions are not carried out. To test whether the functions in the

This is another peculiar bug (?) we've encountered, but we find it impossible to use exact search in a Frameless output if General > Language of the output preset is not set to English. With exact search, I mean surrounding a query with quotation marks, e.g. "onder bepaalde voorwaarden". When we use this query in a Dutch project with a Frameless output generated in Dutch, no results are found. Search results are only shown when we generate the Frameless output in English instead.RH version: 2022.3.93 ILLUSTRATEDDutchEnglish

I'm using RoboHelp 2022. When I try to edit my topics, I keep getting a message that says "It is read only content." Does anyone have an idea why I'm getting this message? I am able to edit the html in RoboHelp but not the normal view. I've tried closing and reopening RoboHelp. I also checked that the topic is not marked as read-only in Windows.

I have 6 RH2022.3.93 projects that are independent of each other. Not 1 project with 6 sub-projects - 6 separete .rhpj files.Also, only generate PDFs currently, no online content - old school.Company now wants to create a RH website project with 1 home page listing all 6 projects as hyperlinks.I know I can create a Frameless output preset for each of my 6 .rhpj projects, but how do I tie all 6 together?Any suggestions/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone, let's see if you can help me. I have an index structured as follows:Chapter 1             Subchapter 1                       Content                       Content...As you can see, it is composed of chapters and subchapters. I have a cover where I display the chapter name using data-field "chapter-title", and I also want to display the subchapter. However, I can't find a way to do it; I use data-field "subchapter-title" or data-field "section-title", but it gives me an error. Has anyone managed to do this?

Hi there, I’m using Robohelp Version 2022.3.93, and I’m facing some issues.In the output, when browsing the topics in the left panel, with each click, all the topics flash, and if I click on one of the first topics in the list, go down with the scroll bar and select another one from the end of the list, instead of staying focused on the last one chosen, the left panel automatically scrolls up. Any suggestion on how to fix it?

Hello tech writers and Adobe employees,  One of my colleagues is having trouble importing xlf files that came back from the translation team.  I had generated the files for him to send to the translation team including the mapper file since he didnt have the right version of RH.  he has v2022 now.  He received the translated files, placed the mapper file in the same folder. When he tried to import, he gets the message "Invalid folder.  pls select a valid language folder".   I used the same RH project, and tried to import the xlf files after putting the mpf files in the same folder.  I am also getting the Invalid folder error message.  I would like to  attach a zip file which contains the mpf file and the translated xlf files but this site does not allow it.  pls advise if there is a way to resolve this error.  > Thanks. - Bob

I am using RH 2022.3.93. I tried inserting a simple MathML html into my frameless help topic by using Insert > HTML Elements > Embed html. I also tried adding it directly using the Source ("</>") tab. But then RH changes my html so it does not work. It moved the </math> line from the bottom to the middle of what I pasted. Is there a trick to keep RH from corrupting my html that I added? 

I am using the RH 2022.3.0 (frameless).I want to have one help topic containing a list of all my technical references. For example:[1] Smith, John, Dummy's Guide to Physics. p 332.[2] Jones, Sarah, Nature, Dec 2022, p3.[3] Harington, Steve, "Atoms explained", p542. I would like to use an ordered list, so that the numbers are automatic. And then, on other help topics, I want to provide links to those technical references. For example, I would like the following: According to most physicists, atoms are real [3]. where the "[3]" is a link which takes you to the third entry of the page of references. Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

Hello, Search results don't display from the output (frameless), even though it says there are results. It does work directly from View Output in RoboHelp, but it's not working in our test environments. I think this post is similar: https://community.adobe.com/t5/robohelp-discussions/search-stopped-working/m-p/13852327. Is there a fix? Thank you!  

We are facing an issue when we try to translate our project.We export our content as XLIFF. When we re-import the translated content via XLIFF, Snippets are not there anymore.I first tried to import only the snippet separately >> the correct places are found everywhere in the entire English project and replaced correctly. If I then import the translated topics, the snippets are lost.Even if I now try to import the snippets again separately, the reference point seems to be lost as soon as the topics containing the snippet have been imported.There are a view files attached to describe the case in a better way. You can download these files via this link:https://cloud.socom.de/s/3gkwt7fqQEtatpnPW: Adobe2023! 03_XLIFF_Export: These are the XLIFF files we create from our project in german language 04_XLIFF_ImportThese are the XLIFF files we import after translation back to our RH project 01_Deutsches Topic:A screenshot from our RH project with content which is

Hello,I am currently using Robohelp 2022 and my organization has created multiple condition tags which we link our topics. We only have one output for our organization so we added these condition tags as dynamic content filters so that when user's search the frameless publication they can use these as filter options to narrow down their search for the content.It works great, but there is an undesired aesthetic within the filters, there are underscores between the words for the condition tags for the output.Based on my reading this is something Robohelp inherently adds when creating condition tag; however, I wanted to check with the community to see if anyone knew of a way to remove the underscores.Below is what is display for our employees when they select the filter option on our published version which corresponds to our condition tags.Any assistance would be greatly apreciated.Thank you, Natalie Barry

I am writitng help for a mobile phone app and use a browse sequence to navigate my readers through the help. This no longer works in RoboHelp 2022 - the buttons are not in the output. I tried using the Charcoal Gray template provided by RoboHelp but this doesn't work either (no browse sequence buttons - but this default skin also works fine in RoboHelp 2020).

I created a layout of an altar using MS Word using the images and text boxes in the layout tab and it appears like this is Word. When I converted the document to pdf, they lookedd exactly the same as in Word (below).But when I printed the pdf, I got this:Sometimes I get this:When I look at PDF document in my computer, it shows correctly with nothing missing. I made over 70 layouts in this document and three were like this. I fixed the other two by erasing the layouts and doing them again, but this last one (Fig. 62) won't resolve. I've tried erasing the layout and creating it again, or copying the layout of another figure that didn't have any problem but when I print it I get the incorrect images. Fig. 62 appears fine when I look at the document on my laptop in Word and PDF. It prints out fine in Word too. The problem appears only when I print out the document in pdf. Can anyone please help? Thank you.   

I'm using RH 2022.3.93, and the Studio skin. I've customized the skin to capture the look-and-feel of our platform software, except for one small part of the background screen, behind the left/TOC panel, as below: The white space is visible only when you scroll down the page. I cannot seem to find the correct element in the skin editor, or even when I look through the topicpage.ejs and the frameless.skn files. None of the elements I've tried to modify have had any effect on this space.Can someone tell me if they've seen this when customizing a skin to use dark backgrounds?Thanks,Mai-Ann

I have a new computer, and now I need to download and install Robohelp, how do I do this when trying to download it´s only sending me to the new trial version. We have an Contract ID. I´m working at a company and there´s only me and a collegue that has license for Robohelp. 

I'm running RoboHelp 2022.3.93 I have set up user-based condition tags to exclude some topics from the generated help. However, I see I can still search for and find those topics. Is there a way to exclude those hidden topics from the search? I know I can use the TOC and topic properties to exclude them in general, but wouldn't that exclude the topics from search for the readers who need the topics? Thanks much!Cindy 

Good morning,to diversify one topic from another, I need to put a different background. Is it possible only for some topics and not for others?Is it also possible to insert icons into the titles of the TOC? I would also need to insert references such as snippets but with the possibility of modifying the content. Thanksdaniela
