Hi there

There are a couple of options you likely need to configure.

First, Click View > Pods > Project Set up and look at the Window properties for your CHM.

Note the options I've highlighted below:

Next, Click View > Pods > Single Source Layouts and right-click the Microsoft HTML Help layout.

Choose Properties and look at the Single Source Layout properties for your CHM file. Once you examine them, click the Edit button next to "Advanced Settings".

The HTML Help Advanced Settings dialog shoul open. Click the TOC Styles tab.

From there, ensure you have the option I've highlighted below.

Hopefully this helps... Rick

It's probably highlighted a light grey colour (as per the screenshot below) instead of a darker highlight. I'd say it's probably a chm feature and not something that Adobe can control. I could be wrong on that though, as it's not something I've ever tried to customise.
