CHM file does not show the correct project title.

Guest

Hi,

I am generating CHM help file for localized languages, such as French Danish etc. using RH10. The CHM file generates correctly. However, title bar of the CHM file shows the default title "HTML Help" and not the project name.

I have set the project name in File -> Project Settings -> Project Title.

The project title appears correctly in the English CHM file but not in the localized languages.

I am having a similar issue though only in this version of the .chm output. In the last version of my .chm output (Xi 1.3) the project title changed as expected when I changed .ssl settings. This time, not only can I not display the updated title (I would happily accept it with or without the version number Xi 1.4), I seem only to be able to display a title from more than 8 versions back, that is 9.3.

I am using Win7, RH9 and Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider for Microsoft®Visual Studio® Team Web Access 2010. Here are my steps.

_______________________________________

1) I download the latest version of all project files from TFS, ensuring that I am using the correct source control path.

2) In my local path, I make .xpj and .ssl files writable.

3) I change the .ssl settings to target Microsoft HTML Help with the selected project title:

(Here are the values if entered via RH Project Settings instead of via the .ssl file.)

4) I have changed the .xpj settings to select the .chm layout:XPJ settings.png

5) I have made 'MicroSoft HTML Help' the primary layout though it should not be necessary to generate .chm output.

6) Each time I generate the .chm output, the title is wrong and belongs to a version several years old and generated in RH7 - the source for this current project.

Suggestions welcome.

Argh! I found the answer.

In Project Set-up, my project opens in a default NewWindow1... the caption for which still displays the old old project name...which I have now changed to my current output version.

Done.
