In my Webhelp output, i have added the Hide Navigation icon.

My development team has a requirement that the Hide Navigation icon should :

on click , Hide TOC

on Click, Unhide TOC.

Currently, it can only Hide..and one has to click the Contents(TOC) icon to unhide ..They are not very comfortable with this.

Can anyone please help me modify the code to add the Unhide feature too?

Regards,

Nanditha

That's the way it works in all WebHelp, other tools as well I believe, and everyone else is comfortable with it.

I guess you might be able to get someone to write a script for a button to replace the Contents button that does what you want. However, you would have to turn off the RH Contents button and then the help would open to either the Index or the Search. On balance, unless anyone else has a suggestion, I think you will have to accept the way it is. It is standard.

Ok..I have a slight problem in knowing how and where to edit the code..

If i try and add some code in the skins editor, then it might cause an impact while compilation and resulting in an error.

I want to know if someone has tried on some code for this function.

Hi Nanditha

I guess you are the same Nanditha that asked the same question over in the TWI forums.

Sorry, but the Skinny file is up to date. It's not been updated in a very long time.

Cheers... Rick
