Hi all,

Has anyone done glossary hotspots for merged projects?

If so what is the official way of doing this please?

My intention at present is to have a single glossary residing in the master project for simplicity of maintentnance but I'd be interested to hear what others have tried etc.

Thanks

    Further to my first questions..

    If one has a merged project and one wants to use glossary hotpsots, is the only way to have a glossary for each sub project and do the hotspots in each one ?

    If you do that do the glossaries merge successfully?

    Let me start by saying that I've never used the Glossary Hotspot Wizard in a production environment and never with a merged project set-up so you'll have to take this with that in mind. However I'd have expected you to have to have the definitions in each sub-project and run it there as well. The merging should all work OK though. If you were able to do it from the master, each sub-project would require opening to amend the relevant topics.

    Hi Colum,

    That said, would it work ok just to have a glossary in the master project only? Although this would I guess mean forgoing the links...


    I'd say so. It makes it easier knowing that all the glossary items go in the same place which also means you can ensure there is no duplication between projects. You didn't really want the links anyway did you
