Is there a "Keep with Next" feature in RoboHelp?

I have RoboHelp 10.  The page break before or after is not what I need because I don't want a page break if the text is in the middle of the page.  I just want a low-level heading to stay with the following paragraph if it is at the bottom of a page.  I don't want to use one of the official "Heading 4", 5, or 6 headings because in this document I need to have different indentations.

Thanks.

Sorry but there is no equivalent in the HTML but when you send the content to Word it is different. If you map to a Word template and in that you have set up Keep with Next, then it should work. I haven't tested this but I'm reasonably confident it will be OK.

If you are not familiar with mapping to a template, see Printed Documentation on my site.

Hi there

Reading between the lines here, I'm guessing you are referring to creating printed documentation?

If so, I'll move this thread to that forum category.

Yes, I am referring to printed doc. I should have put that in my post. If you would please move it I would really appreciate it. Thanks!!!

You're, of course, right about the difference. But in CSS, the difference is smaller. If you set page-break: avoid; you forbid the browser from making a page break directly after the element, making is very similar to keep with next. You can also use it to force a page break as you would in Word. In CSS, it's one property doing both things. But it won't be copied over to Printed Documentation SSL.

Kind regards,

So you would add page-break: avoid; to the heading definition, correct?
