Need to Delete Glossary & Add Search

[Critterlover1075]

Hi All,

After converting my RH7 project to RH8, RH added a Glossary tab (which is empty, by design because we don't use them) and removed the Search tab. I am trying to remove the Glossary tab, but the Delete option is greyed out. I deleted the .glo file from the project folder and reopened the project, but all that did was give the Glossary file a red X. I have searched this forum, but no one else seems to have this problem.

Can anyone help me permanently delete the Glossary from my project?

I also can't find how to add back the Search tab. Can anyone help me with that, too?

(If these are simple tasks, I apologize in advance. I've onlly been using RH for a few months.

Thank you for your help!!

Hi there

How you will go about this will depend on your output.

What are you creating? .CHM, WebHelp, FlashHelp, AIRHelp, JavaHelp, Oracle Help for Java, WinHelp?

Cheers... Rick

Hi Rick,

Oh, yeah, you would need to know that, wouldn't you! Sorry - I'm generating a CHM.

Thank you!

Hi again

Thanks for the info.

For CHM files you need to edit the Window definition. Click View > Pods > Project Set Up. Expand the Windows pseudo-folder. Double-click the CHM window definition. (The WebHelp definition will have a small globe in the center of the icon)

Ensure the Glossary check box is cleared in the lower left area of the dialog.

Cheers... Rick

How do you remove the glossary when using WebHelp?

Thanks

Hi there

What version of RoboHelp? If I know the version, I can provide better detail. But the skinny of it is that you edit the Single Source Layout recipe and clear the check mark for the Glossary. If I know what version of RoboHelp we are dealing with, I can provide better instruction.

Cheers... Rick

Never mind, too easy-----I found it.
