Question

auto-create browse sequence not working

I using RoboHelp 7 and FrameMaker 8 in the Technical Communication Suite. I added three FrameMaker 8 book files by reference to my RH 7 project and I converted each book's TOC. I then added three placeholder TOCs in the default TOC for the FrameMaker TOCs so that all three TOCs would be generated in the WebHelp output. That all works fine.

But when I choose "Tools>Browse Sequence Editor", click the "Auto-create using TOC" button, and choose the default TOC in the "Auto-create Browse Sequences Using TOC" dialog box, no sequences appear in the list of Browse Sequences. I tried selecting the other TOCs also that were converted from the FrameMaker TOCs and that didn't work either.

What am I doing wrong? Or is there another step before this? Or is this a bug in RH?

    AJ confirmed that this is working fine for him in the thread in other category. Paul - can you try with RoboHelp patch 7.0.1 installed.

    In order to make it work, I had to start a new project in RH 7.0.1. Simply applying the RH 7.0.1 patch did not make it work for a poject I'd already created, even if I used Force Update.

    I'm having the same problem. I've taken the liberty of copying this to the FrameMaker Intagration forum.
