RoboHelp

Hi All,I am using FM11 and RH10 from the ATCS4 tech suite.Am not sure if its DITA in FM or Robohelp, but one of them is not listening to the chunking attribute that i have keyed in.For example, i have the following tree structure in my dita map:ConceptParent (given the chunking attribute at this level in the ditamap; chunk = "to-content")ConceptTopicTaskI am generating help directly using Publish option from Framemaker. I wanted all the topics to appear under the Parent Concept when i generate the html files, but its not happening. This is quite critical as we are creating articles and want to group topics/tasks under the same parent rather than spiltting it into different HTML pages.Please help.RegardsSharada

I hope this is the right format. People here have been very helpful with my questions on transitioning to RoboHelp.I have TCS 3.0 and have linked pages from Framemaker 10 to generate WebHelp in RoboHelp 9.0.We are trying to migrate to RoboHelp so as to drop our WebWorks/Frame 7 help system. Fine for those systems that don't have context-sensitive Help implemented already, but I'm running into issuesOne of our main tools has multitudes of context-sensitive web pages (flagged with a HelpLink tag in Frame).I go into the Context-sensitive Help tool in RoboHelp to create a map. It needs ID #s for the pages. Currently, our page source follows the format:<div class-"menu_item"><span class="menu_text" id="m1">Preface</span><span class="menu_link" style="display:none;">Intro_Copyright_and_Warrenty.html#1000183</span>In creating the context-sensitive help, the format in the tool would then be (reading across the entry fields): Intro_Copyright_and_Warrenty.html m1 Pr

(I am using RoboHelp 9, but have also tried RoboHelp 11 with exactly the same results.)Our application requires the WebBrowser control to run in IE9 compatibility mode. This means that when launching help (chm) the help viewer will also use IE9 compatibility mode as it is running in the same process. As Chm files are meant to be viewed in IE7 compatibility mode, this causes various issues with the layout of the help topics.  We have found that to fix this problem each topic needs the following meta tag in the head element: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />As our help system consists of several thousand htm/topic files, we can obviously not do this manually. So in order to have this automatically inserted, I need to edit the mother file that generates the topic files. I have tried to find this file, but no luck. Does anybody know how to do this?

We upgraded to RH11 specifically to fix the known IE11 issue that we had while we were running RH9.  When I installed the software, I applied all available patches, now at 11.0.2.240.  But when I try to generate a WebHelp project, in the output the TOC loads, search bar loads, but the main content of the start page does not load.  Very similar to the old IE11 issue.  Happens both on files local to this virtual machine and when they are loaded to the intenet.  My operating system in Windows 7 (also up to date).Anyone have any suggestions??

The RoboHelp HTML 11 gets hanged when I try to import HTML files into the project. Please provide me answer.

When I try to create a RoboHelp 10.0 HTML output to epub the program crashes. This also happened with Robohelp 9.0 and I was never able to resolve.

Would greatly appreciate some help with this issue, I haven't been able to find anything online about it. I'm using  RoboHelp 11.02 (just upgraded from 11.01) on a 64 bit Windows 7 PC. When I try to Insert DHTML Effects, such as when a file has loaded, fade it in, I get the error "line 4233 char 2 Unable to get property ‘alpha’ of undefined or null reference code 0 File .../ehlpdhtm.js"Here's that part of the code.4231 CAgencyAlpha.prototype.PrepareEffect = function()4232    {// to set the visual filter function4233    // the visual filter ONLY work when set by "Width and Height" or4234    // absolute position for DIV, SPAN and normal tag ( such as p )4235    // but, "absolute" cause the following elements overlap, so:4236    CCSSP.PrepareFilter( this.ele );4237    CCSSP.ShowObject(this.ele, !this.bIsIn );4238 }and when I try to View a Browser Sequence (in another project) that I've added (to

I am using Robohelp 9. I have a file that I would change the name. When I generate the file, it is generated in the path where the file is saved, but want to change the name of file generation. When you open the help file, in the left corner of the window is shown the file name. I want to change that name too.

The TOC does not open in WebHelp Generated with RoboHelp 11. I tried other solutions posted on this forum but no success. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

HiI am using RH10, as part of TCS4. I am creating screen layouts by just modifying the existing ones.I noticed that there is no margin/ space between the topic border and the topic content in it. When I searched for that in mobile.css, I did not find any relevant reference. When I did a Inspect Element on Firefox, it pointed to default.css which I don't find in my Project Setup pod.How can I modify it? Here is the screenshot of the issue I am referring to:Please advise.Sreekanth

Trying to Publish to Site5.Site5 informs us the connection is made but RoboHelp hangs with no message.Can copy files to the web site using FileZilla and it works but...Our website is: plusandminus.comTim Mattinglytim@plusandminus.com

Hello,I am using a predefined skin in robohelp and need to add new navigation buttons. However, when I generate help, the styling for the selected button is not applied to the new buttons. I supposed that the styling should be applied as well to the new buttons(?), can you help me where can I update this?You can see the issue from this video: Robohelp - zbayta's libraryInfo:I am using Robohelp 10 and generating a Web HelpTIA!

Hello all,I'm updating a help project in Robohelp 10. This is an existing project i had in Robohelp 10/Framemaker 11. I am simply updating my Frame content and regenerating (the FM project is linked). My company recently upgraded my browser to Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.17028.I am noticing that some topics do not appear now (they are blank). This is a merged helpset (about 10 helpsets that are merged). I am running the helpset locally on my PC.I've tried applying the IE 10 patch for RH10 and regenerating but this did not help. I am using  RH10.0.1.292.Everything looks fine in Firefox.I am releasing this week and am not sure what else to try.Any ideas?Thanks in advance for any help.

Can you collapse a table or a portion of text within a topic?  If yes, how is this done?

I have added a Close button using Insert > HTML help Control > Close Window. It places the Close button in the topic. I generate the help, and when I view it, the Close button is no longer there. I am in RH 9 and working with FM 10 files in RH. Why does the Close button not display in my local help?

RH10 / Window 7 / PushOK SVNAfter ugrading from RH8 to RH10, we installed PushOK SVN and the TortoiseSVN Repository browser for our doc team as our source control system, after having used RoboSource Control 3.1 when we had RH8..  Whether in the office or working remotely via VPN, when we add a new topic it can take 1-3 minutes for the topic to actually be ready for input.Checking in edited topics when closing the project can also take a good deal of time.  I expected some of that for those of us using VPN remotely but for those in-house I didn't.  Our IT guys are at a loss.  They don't believe it's the network.Is this a common issue?   Is there a way around it?   Or is there something that comes into play that we are not even considering?   OR??Any help would be greatly appreciated.Regards,Joe Pollock

RoboHelp 10 - When I start a new blank project, I find two skins in the Skins folder: Beautiful Vista Flash and Default. Neither can be deleted. I have noticed that Beautiful Vista Flash appears in the Skins folder for each of the existing projects that I am working on. Is there any way to get rid of it or prevent Robohelp from loading it? Thanks.

Hi, I installed TCS 5 after installing a trial of RoboHelp 11.  After I installed, I opened a project from TCS 4 and I was able to update an existing linked FM book and Link to new files.    The FM files were converted ot FM 12 and the RoboHelp project was converted to RoboHelp 11.Now, when I reopen the RoboHelp project, I cannot update or link to FrameMaker documents.I am running Windows 7. I run both RH and FM as administrator and I have owner permissions to the Adobe folder.I tried uninstalling and reinstalling TCS 5 and the behavior is consistent.  Is there some registry entry or something i should look for?Lauren

Hi. Do any of you know if RoboHelp 11 supports any type of access rights to published HTML docs?My company has a basic product that all customers have access to. We also have "premium" products that are available to customers who pay for them, and at the moment we prefer not to expose the premium products' docs to customers who haven't purchased those products. What I'd like to be able to do is have some way that a customer can log in to access the basic HTML docs and, based on their login rights, have links to the premium docs be made visible and link to the HTML docs for those products.Note that for now, I'm OK with maintaining separate RH  projects for the basic doc set, and one for each premium doc set. (Each would have their own search domain.)Thanks in advance!-Kurt Euler

Robohelp HTML 10 (10.0.0.287) - generating WebHelp output for a website - How do I import a CSS style sheet?I've inherited a Help project that does not have a CSS file in the Project Files folder.  Is there a way to import a CSS file into an existing Help project?

Robohelp 11 - I upgraded to 11 and now I'm noticing that RH11 has changed some text to italics that was not in italics before. I have a HUGE help system and can't check every file.
