RoboHelp

Hi, I'm looking to change the name of the pane that shows up in the left pane. It currently says Contents, my boss would like it to say Guides instead. I can't find anything in Skins settings that will let me adjust the text that shows up there. 

I can't get this version to install.I've tried installing on top of RH 2020.6.I've uninstalled 2020.6, then installing 2020.7.I've tried using the setup.exe and the RoboHelp_2020.7_Off.msi.I've tried running the setup.exe with admin rights.I rebooted, and tried again, all of the above.I have admin rights. The installer is not archived/zipped. No other applications are running (other than Windows Explorer).Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but here's the log. Any help getting this settled would be greatly appreciated.--Rich

We are updating from RN 2019 Classic to 2020. When we convert an existing project most everything is converted without issue. However, the master pages do not retain the background images we assigned to them.I have attempted to add a background image to the converted master pages, and to add one to a new master page. I'm cerrtain I'm not doing it correctly because all I ever see is a sliver of the image. The image is a banner that is 4800x300 px. It is inteded to be at top, with no repeat.I am trying to place the cursor at the top of the page, at or above the breadcrumbs and header. Although I've specified that it's 300px you only see as much as the breadcrumb part will show. I don't want it "in" the breadcrumbs, but how do I get it to apply to the entire page? Would appreciate any and all help!Rich

In previous versions (classic) of RoboHelp, I've added a background image to my master pages, with no repeat. In the current version, although I can specify a background image in the master page (and sometimes see it, although it repeats when I have none selected), I cannot get the image to output and be displayed in the webhelp.I've looked all over the place using typical keywords and everything I've found tends to gloss over the process or just mentions what to do. I can't find a solution for when it doesn't work as advertised. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

All, attempting to summarize the background image issue I've been having. I am following up with some different posts to try and respond to those who've attempted to help.Our team has been using RoboHelp Classic, 2019. We're adopting the new user interface 2020 version.When we have used the Upgrade RoboHelp Classic Project command to convert our existing templates and projects, everything converts pretty well, except the background images we have on the two master pages used in each project are "lost". The background images don't show up in the master page. Thus, they don't display in the html output.I am unable to figure out how to place a background image in this version.It was suggested that I upgrade to rh2020.7. This has not worked; I cannot get that version to install, despite having no issues getting the rh2020.6 version to install.I have been able to see the master page when attaching it to the CSS body style. However, it displays in the topic while authoring; makes the text di

I upgraded from RH2019 (Re-imagined) to RH 2020.0.156 and I can no longer generate my HTML5 output. Selecting Generate in any of my output presets causes the RH screen to go completely white and hang. From that state, while I can still see the menus, selecting Help | Restart RoboHelp does nothing. Ditto for clicking the X icon. I have to close it through the Taskbar or Task Manager.

Can RoboHelp 2020 translate the content from English to Spanish language? What should be the better approach and how Adobe can support me on this?

RH2020.7.46 Is there anyway to create a conditional expression to use Include expression instead of Exclude such that I can generate output to include on files with a particular condition tag? We have many pages/files that do not have any associated condition tags - I would like to have output generated that Only includes pages with condtion tag of X.

I want to add a background image to my front cover. I try specifying an image path in background for my topic but it does not display the image. When I went to the source I saw that it added the background-image to a pargraph. So I moved it to the body and now the image displays in the topic in RH but when I preview it or generate the PDF, the image is not there. I can add the image to the topic but then I cant get the size right because it just sits in the corner of the topic underneath the title, which is not want I want. 

Hello, just wondering if compilation will be possibily faster under certain circumstances.what happens when RH is 'patching' during compilation?I suspect removing not existing links or something like that. Which is possible in my case, as they have to be corrected.I'm just wondering if compilation will be skipping that patching once links are in order.best regardsOlivier

Warning: Error occurred while parsing inline style :1:7: Missed semicolon: "width:99.9% margin-left: 0.15pt;"I received this error in the output log after successfully generating Responsive HTML. There are similar error listed for one other topic in the output log. I've tried searching for the string but there are 0 results. What should I do?  

Hello, I'm trying to evaluate the amount of work to migrate from RH2019classic to RH2020 and unmerge a project with 30-ish subprojects to one. One of the hurdles is the mapfiles. I followed the sequence (which doesn't talk about the mapfiles but that's ok) Peter posted here all looking good. per subproject I had a mapfile. In RH2019 classic this looks like thisbut when importing the same file in RH2020, i get thisSo somewhere deep in the filestructure of RH2019 there must be a second file containing the relations.Do I really need to fill up these topics again manually? Or is there some tric?Why did I loose the topicnames? I checked, they are present in author/content/assets, for each ex-subproject in its own subfolder.Do I have to merge those mapfiles to one, or can import them separately (but what about naming conventions in that case).Can i change the order of the mappings? this will be cumbersome as they seem to be ordered in different way's from RH2019 classic  to RH2020.

My company will be moving to SharePoint Online.  I was testing to see how I can get RoboHelp files onto the online site I have. I can copy the files from my hard drive and place the on the SharePoint site but when I try open the index file the guide does not dissplay properly.  In working with IT, they mentioned an article they found titled "Publish to SharePoint Online and Other Publishign Enhancements". In the article it states that you can publish Responstive HTML5 output to SharePoint Online in the native ASPX format. I cannot figure out how to publsh in the native ASPX format.  I must be able to publish to SharePoint Online or I will no longer be able to use RoboHelp. Thank you,Michele

Hi team. I have robohelp server 11 and robohelp 2020 client, i'am facing strange issue during publications ! I use a project and i want to do several different publications from that project like it was possible to do it with RH2015 and RH server 9.I created 2 output preset :  -Responsive HTML5  - Content tab / Title : AideLabo_BRN_f  => Generate and publish => OK-Responsive HTML5v2 - Content tab / Title :  AideLabo_BRN_a => Generate and publish => OKWe are different conditions expressions per each publication profile. My projetc name is : Labo  After generation, i can see locally that 2 folders have been generated, one for each project !  When i do the first publication, in my robohelp server admin page i can see my projet : Labo When opening it on a browser i can see it with the good information.When i do the second publication, it overwrite the first one !

Is there any way to solve it please? i am using the robohelp 2020 test version. thanks .  

We have successfully used Context Sensitive Help with the Classic version for many years. We recently started the conversion to 2020. Lacking a Classic 2020 option we selected Responsive HTML5. Under the Classic version our web pages had anchors with this:RH_ShowHelp(0, helpUrl + '>CSH', HH_HELP_CONTEXT, helpMapId);Where helpUrl and helpMapId were defined on every page as:<script language="JavaScript"> var helpMapId = '160000'; var helpUrl = '/help/index.htm'; </script>Everything has worked fine since 2015. We ran the Adobe provided mapping conversion, but it only converted about 50% of our topics but we were eventually able to get all 2200 mappings into 2020. Based on the sheer number of pages we wanted to retain the helpMapId concept from the Classic version. It appears as though the new name is helpMapNo and helpMapId is now a character string similar to what one would think of as a key in a key\value pair, but other than the name change, helpMa

I can embed images and vidoes.  Can I embed a spreadsheet?  I suspect not because I do not see an option for it, but I was wondering if there might be a way through a link in an IFRAME.

How does one configure or hide these FEATURES ABOUT FEEDBACK options in the Topic Page of the skin? They are set for a mid-topic jump labeled "nogo".  Is there any documentation anywhere on working with these? Thanks!

How do you transfer your photos to the Adobe app to begin editing?   

Hello,I’m using Robohelp 2020.6.76. I’ve imported a PDF into the contents panel (using Import > file) and linked to it from a topic. After generating Responsive HTML5 output, in the preview, the PDF opens as a PDF (as expected).However, after I upload the generated project to our server and click the link to the PDF from the help topic, I get an error message stating the resource has been removed or is temporarily unavailable.Other PDFs that exist in the same folder in the contents panel and are also linked in topics work just fine when viewed from the server. (These PDFs were all added in RH 2019 before the project was upgraded: don’t know if that’s significant.)I tried importing the PDF as a baggage file, adding it to the TOC and linking to the baggage file from the topic: that didn’t work either. Tried moving the PDF to a different folder: didn’t work. Tried linking the PDF to a different topic: that didn’t work.I imported a different (“dummy”) PDF and linked that one to a “dummy

I am using RoboHelp Version 2020.6.76I read in this page that few scripts are supplied with RoboHelp. But in the scripts panel there are no scripts. In post generation screen of output presets also there are no scripts. Could someone help me find these scripts or provide them. I am specifically looking for Variable Converter script. 

Hi all! I am using a rebranded "Orange" frameless skin. There is a search icon that appears in the top-right corner of the output:When clicked, the icon "toggles" to the Search box (icon disappears and Search box becomes focus in the middle of the header): What I want to do is set the default value of this "toggle" to "search-selected" so that the Search box above appears on the page upon load, instead of the search icon. I am familiar with the div classes for each element and in digging around, suspect this may need a script or LayoutDiff.css edit...but I just can't nail down where (or how) I can specify this. On the front-end skin editor, I've tried changing various Display options on the search-icon and search-selected elements, but again coming up empty. Does anyone have any ideas?
