RoboHelp 11 / Responsive HTML: Can you remove Index and Glossary from the output layout?

Hi All,

We do not typically write indexes or glossaries for our product or P&P documentation, but the Responsive HTML 5 layout has icons for both in the Sidebar (Layout Customization). We would prefer to remove these, but I haven't sorted out whether it's possible. It appears it is not simple if it is possible. I tried the 1x1 invisible png, but Layout Customization forces you to use the index.png and glo.png file names. I renamed the invisible png as index.png and it left a 1x1 px white spot in the header. Meanwhile, if you mouse over where the icon was, it makes it look like there's a clickable icon there. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Matt

There's no way to do this from the HTML5 editor. The only way to get it done is when you dive into the code.

Luckily, I've made a version available with TOC only via http://www.wvanweelden.eu/blog/2014/03/27/adobe-robohelp-responsive-layout-toc-only

Kind regards,

Too bad the Single Source Layout editor doesn't offer little check boxes to turn these off or on as you can in WebHelp.

Cheers... Rick

It would be wonderful to be able to disable/enable the index.
