I've tried just about everything I can think of from using text centering button, to center aligning table button, to indent button, even selecting table and attempting to use inline centering by inserting <center> tag. No dice. I have no idea on going in and manually messing with the .css, I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to that, but shouldn't it work as advertised without having to do all that?

In my Responsive HTML5 output, when a user searches, the search results show (1) the topic name, (2) some words beneath it, and (3) breadcrumbs below it. If that particular topic has Index keywords associated it, #2 displays those keywords. In the Output presets, I've chosen to show "Text around the search term" but that's not what I'm seeing in the output.From this website (https://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh_tour/rh2022/toc_index_glossary/index.htm) I see that "The index keywords will also be shown in search results unless of course you have set your output to exclude the index." But I don't know how to set up my output to exclude the index.  In the output presets on the content tab, I tried unchecking "Include Index" but that didn't do it.So how do I set up my output to exclude the index so that when you're searching in the output (i.e., not within Robohelp) you don't see the list of keywords in search results?  

Good Day All: I have an unresolved issue with JavaScript and Sharepoint ASPX files. This doesn't seem to be a problem with HTML files, only with ASPX files. There are two topics that have custom JavaScript files. Script A supports a horizontal tab menu on one topic. Script B supports a vertical tab menu on another topic. The problem appears with both topics. When a topic loads in SharePoint, the script does not run. The script will run after a page refresh. However, the refresh doesn't "stick" when moving to another topic.  For example: Select the first topic, the script doesnt run. Refresh the page, the script runs. Select the second topic, the script doesnt run. Refrush the page, the script runs. Return to the first topic, the script doesnt run.   RoboHelp 2020.5.71 is the authoring tool. The JavaScript code was moved to multiple locations (external file, within the header, within the body) to determine if that was the issue, but the results are the same.  As you c

Hello,When generating a project to Microsoft HTML the format font and alignment are different from editing mode and become messy. And some pics on some topics are corrupt.(Edit mode) (Generated)(pics corrupt)      

I just installed the new RH 2022.  Then upgraded my project then outputted to Word. When I open the docx in Word, I get the following: "Word experienced an error trying to open the file.  Try these suggestions..." Any idea what's causing this and, more importantly, how to fix it. Thanks!  

I'm having a similar issue. When I link or even try to just import a FrameMaker book, RoboHelp opens FrameMaker, then it opens the book, then it creates the html. That's all great, but the generated html is stuck in the user\appdata\temp\RHTMP folder. The files are there, everything is correct, it just can't seem to get the files from the temp directory to the project folder. Any ideas as to why? 

Hi All, My reviewers have picked up on behaviour which is understandably frustrating them. When navigating our help site (frameless output) hitting the back button in the browser always returns to the top of the previous topic. The expected behaviour is for the back button to return to the previous position on the last page, not the top. This is particularly annoying when the user has clicked a link in a long article, but then needs to return to that article at the same point. It's a lot of scrolling. Has anyone noticed this, found it unhelpful, and implemented a solution? Best regards,Tim (RoboHelp 2020.7.46)

Hi, does anyone know how to get RH to generate an index html as part of the output? The attached file shows the list of files I currently get. I am using a modified version of the Framless preset (I didnt modify it so unsure what the modifications are). Thanks. 

I installed the Demo version on my M1 Macbook pro, and all was working well. I copied .htm files from a Flare project generated and viewed the project.  Shut down and restarted my mac, and now I can't get RoboHelp to open any project. All I get is the Robohelp Menu bar and nothing else. Is this M1 vs Intel issue on the Mac? Any help is most welcome.

Hello. In Robohelp (version 2022.0.346) when I select all the topic and delete the CSS options from the Multiple topic properties window , neither do I  see any CSS applied not do  I see it as an option. But, on checking the topic preperties of an individual topic I see the relative path. (Attaching the screenshot for reference). Could any one help me understand ,why I see CSS differently  on topic level and when I check it after selecting multiple topics? Thanks.  

I have created a new project (in Version 2022.0.346) . When I try to import topics from a project made in same version, it shows broken images. The images are located in the same path as seen in the Contenet Properties ( on  selecting the image). The images appear only on manually selecting from the insert image window. Now, I have more than 100 images and manaully reinserting / reassigning  is an impossible task. Does anyone have a solution for this issue? Also, I am unable to understand that if the images are located in the corrcet folder (the path is correct) then why do they not visible?  

Hello! Is there a way to force the target for all hyperlinks in a frameless output (RH2020) to display in a parent frame (or new window, etc.)? All of the hyperlinks and cross-references in my projects are currently set to be displayed in frame, page default. I need to update them to be displayed in the parent frame. Is there a way I can force this so that I don't have to update the target for every link in every topic in every language? I've tried adding <base target="_parent"/> to the head of my master page, but that didn't work. It also didn't work to add it directly to the head of a topic. I also tried adding the following to my css, which also didn't work:a { target: _parent; }Any other suggestions?

Is it possible to generate responsive HTML output for Glossary (the .glo file kept in the glossary folder)?  

I am trying to setup RH Server 11 to test out its functions before recommending for use.  I see that the operating system requirements list several versions of Windows Server.  I was hoping I could just install on a Windows 10 pc I have just for testing purposes.  The install seems to work fine, but when I try to access the web admin, I am unable to log in with any user/pw I try. Does anyone know if I am just totally barking up the wrong tree here? Thanks

When generating two different HTML5 outputs from my project, RoboHelp appears to be getting stuck on Compressing files. The status bar continues to run under Output Presets. If I view the log file, it shows that Output generation was successful and the files seem OK, but I would prefer that RoboHelp indicate to me that the generation was successful. Has anyone else seen this? I am using RoboHelp 2020.8.34.

The font and formating of my entire project has updated without explination and is "wonky" to say the least. All of my topics and pages have differen styles, sizes, colors and its a mess. I do not even know where to start! What I current have published is fine, but if I go to edit all pages are all over the place and when I preview it looks that way too. 

I am using a multilevel list in RH 2020, and when I go from the first to the second level there are empty lines (parapgraph end tag) added between the levels (see screenshot).In Webhelp, I don't have any problem in output, but when I generate Word Output, the extra paragraph mark is considered as an extra line. I have even tried switching the css with the default, it doesn't gets removed.

Hello,I have created a project which will be used only to call F1 windows. that means the help will pop up only when '?' is clicked on the particular window. So we don't need TOC for navigation. Using RH 2022, I added a folder, and all the .htm files are within this folder. Now, when I compile the project with a blank TOC, then this folder is blank. Also, I have indexed all the topics within this folder. But, only when I add these topics to the TOC these files appear in the folder after compiling. Please suggest how will these files appear without adding them to the TOC?

I'm importing a big manual with a lot of topics from Microsoft word. RoboHelp is resorting the heading topics to be in alphabetical order, but I want them to match their original order in the Word file. Is there a way to do this?

I have successfully created a Connection Profile in RoboHelp, connecting to my personal SharePoint Online account.  Works fine. I now wanted to add another Connection Profile, this time connecting to my employer's SharePoint instance. When I click Login during the Connection Profile creation process, it uses my personal login, and this fails. I cannot find a way to provide my work login for this second profile. Any suggestions?
