HELP!!!  Cannot edit screen layout.....Layout has been corrupted, and causes RH10 to shut down when I try to edit it.  The published layout has changed as well, with pictures enlarged and interfering with the body text.

Hello!

We have this problem too, but in Robohelp11 with standard layout "Desktop_Knowledge". When I try to edit it throw "Project Settings"-"Screen Layouts", RH crashes with error and don't save any changes. Try to create new layout by deleting this layout and making another one while create screen profile in generating output, but problem is still here. We can edit layout with notepad, but it isn't friendly. How can we fix it?

An update: project was updated from RH9.

Was able to fix it.  Found that it was the Topic.slp file was corrupted.  Replaced it with one from a different project and Voila! Project was back.

WebHelp screen layout or HTML5?

Do you have problems if you use a different layout?

No this is not the same issue. When trying to edit the HTML 5 desktop layout, the program crashes. I have tried importing the layout in from another document, but it still fails

OK but it is about two features both leading to Rh freezing and in both cases it is when using a specific layout. If you use a different layout and edit the CSS associated with that, no problem occurs, correct?
