About Webhelp  is just plain wrong.  The tooltip ought to read "About <project name>" and the title bar for the About window should be eliminated (or else have it read About <project ver xx>.

How do I do this?

Likewise, is it possible to change the ICON for the About dialog in the toolbar of a published Webhelp project?

Please start each thread with the edition and version of RoboHelp that you are using. Sorry but we cannot remember these details about every poster.

In RH8 there is an option not to have the image or to use your own, maybe RoboHelp 7 too. In earlier versions download Rick's Skinny on Skins. I believe he has that covered there.

Not sure about the title. A text search on the wh files in the output would probably locate it.

Is it common to have technical difficulties getting pix and words in same message?

RH8 RobohelpHTML published as web help.

Reviewed SkinnyOnSkins, WH folders before posting. Cannot locate "About WebHelp" title in WH folders or files. Sent screenshot of About setup, jpgs. Expecting blue banner where URL box is published. Screenshot shows content of the URL (...wh.htm), because it is not viewable as a "page".
