Customizing tile icons on home page

[wahab_shareenabanu@cat]

We would like to customize the icon for topics in the home page of online help. We know that there is a way to add icon for topic while customizing the layout using UI option which will be applied across the help. But we want specific image to be customized for each of the topics. Can you advise us how we can perform the same in Robohelp?

You posted on a really old thread - let's start you off with your own.
What version of RH are you using (include the point version so we can tell if you're up to date).
What Preset or skin are you using?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting. I will ask my tech lead to provide all those information with you soon tomorrow.

I think you need a feature that is only in frameless skins in 2020. There you can define a specific icon for each TOC entry. There was a post recently reporting a bug in that whereby you lose the fields that let you position the tiles but a workaround was posted.

Future development of skins will focus on frameless so you might want to consider that too.

Adobe RH 2020 frameless customization we are in POC mode to match with our Enterprise level figma design. Once we complete that only then we can migrate all our existing projects to it, until then is there a solution for projects in 2019 version of RoboHelp Indigo layout to have 2 different tile icons for topics. We have changed the TOC icons in main page that is possible. But the above scenario, we have not figured out a solution kindly help with. 

[Peter Grainge]

If there is a solution, I am not aware of it. Hopefully someone else can help.

It may be possible in RH2019 Classic. But probably complex. See if the following posts help.

Start with this for a hack to enable old, hidden custom icon functionality:

If the above doesn't do everything you want then try this one. Ignore the discussions about merged help as you haven't mentioned merging and you shouldn't need to implement it. The posts of interest talk about the image on the back button, then further ones about updating the  toc_c_images.css file - the principles should apply to a regular, single project. It will require a fair amount of confidence with css coding and browser developer tools:
