Where is mini TOC and Resource drop-down?

[Guest]

This is really silly, but I can't figure out why I don't see the Resource links I've defined in my AIR Single Source Layout when I view the output.  Even worse, I don't see where you specify a mini TOC in the Single Source Layout properties.  Help. (I didn't see it in the help, either.)

I have upgraded to Robohelp8 and don't see the mini TOC setting in the layout.  (I see it if I use the packager for RH7)

I've noticed that the Resource list can be a bit buggy. On some AIR files I've generated, the list of resources are from another project or even have duplicate entries. I haven't figured out yet why. But to give you two tips:

1. When testing the AIR Help, always install it on your computer. "Viewing the result" after the Help has been generated (that is, not installing the Help) can display different results (the resource list and inability to view PDFs are two differences that come to mind).
2. If the results from 1. aren't what you expect, install the AIR Help on another computer and test the result. When my Resource list was (and still is) incorrect - even though the list in the SSL is correct - I installed the Help on another machine and everything was as it should be.

As I said, I don't know why the Resource list is getting corrupted/missing on the computer that generates the Help, but you may want to test it on another PC first.

PS I can't help with the mini-TOC problem as I've never used this feature. Mini-TOCs are possible with RH8 however. I'll have to defer to another forum member though...

Thanks so much for the insight.  I also found that if I generated WebHelp and used the RoboHelp Packager for AIR, then the Resources and MIni-TOC showed up.  But, they don't if I generate AIRHelp using an AIRHelp SSL layout that I create in the RoboHelp8 program itself!
