adding auto-mapped CSH targets to WebHelp

Contributor ,

I inherited a FrameMaker 10 / Robohelp 9 project, all source in FrameMaker, RoboHelp is used only to generate WebHelp.

I'm working on cleaning up a nonstandard CSH implementation.

I auto-mapped All Map IDs to the default BSSCdefault.h, which is selected in the WebHelp layout properties, but when I generate I don't find any of the strings from BSSCdefault.h in the output.

Do topics get mapped only when there's a TopicAlias marker in the FrameMaker source?

The usual way for CSH markers to get into your RH project from FM is to create a marker in FM for CSH - you put the mapid in the marker text, then tell RH to use that marker type for CSH (it's on the Conversion Settings page). That's the way I do it.

I'm looking for an alternative to manually adding markers.

Is there an automated tool for creating TopicAlias markers for a selected paragraph tag?

If not I suppose I could export to MIF and search and replace to add them.
