• How to remove a tag of conditional compilation

  I write here, because the link to the General discussion seems to be broken.

  I want to remove the conditional compilation tags that come with RoboHelp 11. For RoboHelp online help (accessible by clicking on the?) Help button in the dialog tag to build conditional) says:

  «To remove the tags conditional build of a project, click project.» Expand the folder for conditional Build tags, click a tag, and select Remove. And then click OK. »

  I haven't used RoboHelp for a while, so forgive my ignorance, but where exactly "click Project? I seem to remember that the conditional Build tags folder used to reside in the project files folder in the project manager pod. But he's not here.

  Thank you!

• Using paragraph styles with numbered lists having paragraphs "child."

  Hi all

  I wanted just a checking the direction of your InDesign experts.

  When I create a numbered list when there are paragraphs separate 'child' who "belong" to the paragraph numbered list real (see below) how do I use paragraph styles for formatting the list?

  Currently I apply a style numbered list to each of the bold numbered paragraphs and just a style of body text indented paragraphs of the child. Is this fair?

  3.1 it is a topic but also a part of a numbered list

  This is the text that goes with the above heading

  This is another paragraph which goes hand in hand with the above heading

  3.2 it comes is a topic, but also part of a numbered list

  This is the text that goes with the above heading

  This is another paragraph which goes hand in hand with the above heading

  3.2 it is a topic but as part of a list numbered

  This is the text that goes with the above heading

  This is another paragraph which goes hand in hand with the above heading

  Also, is there a power automatically apply a style to the last bullet in a list (as with the last CSS child selector) so that I can have a small space after each of my balls except the last one where I would want a larger space.

  Is this fair? Yes. And if you want the style of paragraph number somehow, each model numbered to give his name to the list.

  The styles will be applied by you. To get the last point in space after, add this attribute to its own paragraph style, perhaps also giving it a keep with previous keep option.

  Or give more simple, perhaps the paragraph numbered line style certain amount of space before as one of its attributes under withdrawal and spacing.

• RoboHelp captures together tags conditional compilation for tables

  My FrameMaker 9 tagged conditional text tables is not captured by RoboHelp 8.

  My tests show conditional text for tables in FrameMaker when imported in RoboHelp gives me a table with no tag of conditional compilation at all. If I have, in addition, the value of conditional text for the content in the table I find myself alone with an empty table. IOW, I have to "man-handle" all tables in RoboHelp... sucks big time!

  My RoboHelp settings are fine as I can see all build tags in FrameMaker in RoboHelp (they are not automatically applied to the tables). Applying the compilation conditional tags before importing FrameMaker files is never a good idea because it is not working properly. From my experience, you must always set the same conditions of generation in RoboHelp as you do in FrameMaker. IOW, repeat!

  Everyone has the same problems, or I'm doing something wrong here?

  Adobe confirms that this is a bug!

• Conditional compilation tags or phrases in the table of contents

  Hi all

  I meet another problem with my conversion, this time with the tags and conditional compilation expressions.
  Everything seems to go well in my subjects, but not in my table of contents.

  Some of my topic titles have words with conditional text applied in the source FrameMaker document.

  These subject titles also appear in the table of contents that are automatically generated when I connect my framework book in Robohelp.

  I put the conditional compilation expression in the Webhelp settings dialog box and then save and build.

  These topic titles appear to pick up the correct conditional compilation expression in the subjects themselves, but the title of the table of contents displays several conditions (including the condition that I set myself to 'Exclude').

  Thus, for example, if the title of my topic is

  "Conventions in this documentonline help."

  WHERE
  -----
  document > should appear in PDF format only
  and
  online help > must only appear in Webhelp

  I can get the Webhelp topic to use the title "Conventions in this online help.

  but the corresponding TOC header looks like this:
  "Conventions in this documentonline help.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Conditional compilation tags are not imported to the table of contents of the FrameMaker content. However, you can follow another approach to achieve this. We can manage the conditional compilation expression in FrameMaker itself and import the content of filterted in RoboHelp. In order to achieve this, set the conditional compilation expression in FrameMaker. Enable the setting in RoboHelp to 'apply FrameMaker text building conditional Expression '. [File->-> import-> Edit (FrameMaker settings)-> other settings of project settings]

  This way of RoboHelp will import only the content filtered with conditional tags build resolved according to the expression applied in FrameMaker.

• Fun with numbers & tabs

  Hello

  I have a really hard time with tabs today.

  I have created a simple table of contents for a brochure and want to have a list with the page numbers, followed by the description of the page. (see attached image).

  

  I want to have the right alignment numbers and descriptions of the left page. I know how to do this with numbered lists, but who will not allow me to enter my own numbers. I just want to do it manually with tabs. I would also like to avoid using a table (which will be my last resort).

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Without going into the tables of characteristics content,... Character Styles and paragraph Styles everything that could help with this, here's how to do it simply and manually.

  Set your type with a tab before and after page numbers (see screenshot below)

  Select all of your text

  Open the tab panel

  Click the rule of the tab panel where you want the page number and chat text align to. This will outline the tab for each job stops.

  Select the tab stop for the page numbers, and then click the icon on the right alignment tab in the tab of the Panel (see screenshot)

  Things should now be harmonised.

  

  You can also set the tabs in a paragraph style. You can use a style nested charater to get text in bold on the numbers. You can use the features of the Table of contents automatically to look for some tagged styles in your document and create a table of contents for you.

• Conditional compilation tags and numbered lists

  Is there a way to get numbered lists to be updated automatically when using conditional tags? For example, step 6 of a 10 step list is necessary for 1 of 4 products. However, when I saw the content for 3 to 4 products that do not require this step, the list is numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, etc.

  That is the question... Thanks Colum.

• RoboHelp 2015 - batch generate with conditional compilation tags broken?

  Hello everyone.

  My company has recently upgraded to Technical Communication Suite 2015 and today we try to generate online help for the first time with RoboHelp 2015. We have been batch generating (rhcl.exe) for about a year with no problems... and today I have problems in conditional tag of major works. I'll try to be as detailed as possible, in the hope that the community can tell me if I'm doing something wrong.

  System: RoboHelp 2015 on Windows 7 64 bit. WebHelp layout. Upgraded project of HR 11 a week ago.

  
  

  Setting up a project

  In most of the topics, we have a 'See also' section at the end, with a few links. This section is tagged with the 'Online' CBT (so that we can exclude the PDF output).

  There are 4-5 CBT by module.

  My conditional compilation expression is: NOT print AND NO risk AND NO WIP. The expression is named Test. This conditional compilation expression is stored in a WebHelp SSL called VALUE. The 'Online' tag appears correctly under tags available and it is certainly not excluded.

  The problem

  I use the following command;

  "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 2015\RoboHTML\rhcl.exe ' 'D:\technical_documentation\my_project\my_project.xpj'-l 'Test' o 'D:\help_builds\my_master\mergedProjects\my_project '.

  In the output, all the content that is tagged with Online is not visible, even if the tag was not excluded!

  I tried a few other scenarios and the results are even more confusing to me. I scored some random text with some other tags ('link', 'afds' and 'value') - labeled content 'link' and 'afds' is not visible, but the content labeled 'Value' is... Although none of these tags have been excluded!

  If I generate RoboHelp, not with the lot, everything works fine, without changes in the SSL settings.

  Am I right in thinking this is a new bug? Perhaps rhcl.exe support incorrectly the improvements in tag conditional compilation in HR 2015? I will record a bug if this is the case, but I would like some opinions firstly thank you!

  Adobe have studied this problem and managed to reproduce it.

  I suggest that report you it as a bug so that Adobe can contact you if they need more information.

• I need help with RoboHelp 10 conditional compilation tag option

  I need assistance with the option of conditional compilation tag. I want to apply CBT to the contents of a field. I looked at the help topics and believes that I applied the function correctly.

  Hello

  With the help of marking is a two part process.

  First part

  You create and apply tags for the information you want to order.

  Second part

  You create a create an Expression that is used when you generate your output. The Expression of build usually reads something like: NO Tag1 (or whatever the name of your tag)

  Then when generate you and use the Expression to build, the information containing the tag is not included in the build.

• Encoded text with conditional compilation still tags appear in TOC even if the label is "excluded".

  I use TCS2, Windows XP.

  After you have created a book in FM and coding with conditional compilation tags, I imported HR. When I generate, I output the value tag:

  NOT NoOUtput AND NOT internal AND NOT printed - I want to generate my external, webhelp online help. And it works like a charm. Except that:

  • In the table of contents, I can still see the stars for the things that are "internal" - when I click on it, they're not going anywhere... but I don't want them to appear in the table of contents!

  It seems to exclude from the index and search. I don't know that miss me just a step, or something...

  
  Browsing the forums I found this... http://forums.Adobe.com/message/751847#751847 -I don't know if it is still applicable, because it seems to allude to RH6 (which is a bit far from the 8 HR that I use)...

  Any help is appreciated!

  TIA,

  Adriana

  @Daggins - that's what I was talking about! I knew it was there somewhere ;>)

  @adrianaharper - if it doesn't work properly in PDF files that you create on the FM band; what the TOC looks like FM? You're just pulling in HR when you import/link right? If the faulty internal topics are appearing in the table of contents of the FM, then expect them to appear in HR too. You must kill them, FM or kill them in HR.

• Is there a limit to the conditional compilation tags?

  I have difficulties in WebHelp edition (which is our preferred choice). The project is huge anyway, with subjects from 1580, so it's a bear to manage. To add to the workload, I have three conditional compilation tags created. For now, each topic (minus five) assigned to one and only one of the conditional tags I build. So there's a lot of conditional in the equation.
  
  When I publish the complete help on my office file, it works fine (although I think more slowly as before, I've added the tags). When I assign a SSL so that only two tags conditional build is included, the publication fails. RoboHelp gets hung up, and I have to close it by the Task Manager. The output is never completed.
  
  In any case, I can't publish the help file on a server. Even if I publish the SSL without conditions applied, RoboHelp is hindering again. I can always publish to desktop and upload it to my server.
  
  So, is there an upper limit for the number of subjects who may have applied conditional construction? I couldn't find a limit in the documentation.
  
  Kevin

  No limit that I definitely know the numbers you're talking about are not a problem.

  If you can publish to a local drive, then the conditions aren't the issue.

  Are you clear on the difference between the production and publication?

  Also in your second paragraph you say that you can publish on your desktop. In your third paragraph, you say that you can not publish for SSL. Which should also be on your local disk, so at odds with the two things.

  Where is your project stored?

• Conditional compilation tags do not work for printed documents

  Hi all
  
  I'm working on the huge aid project, a unique project for several clients. I use conditional compilation tag features to determine what topics, links, images, text, etc. should be included or excluded the CHM for the appropriate client file.
  
  When I tried to generate printed documentation (DOC and PDF) for a conditional build tag, I was upset by the fact that conditional construction used in TOC label do not work... The output document contains all the themes of the project help, despite the good create a conditional Expression defined for this schema of the source.
  
  "Nobody knows how the correct subjects can automatically participate in the layout of chapter (see page 'Printed Documentation' Setup Assistant ' Presentation of the Document Print') in accordance with the conditional Build Expression in the 'print general Document' Wizard page"Printed Documentation"settings defined)?
  If it works? I think Yes, because this is the absurd, if I need to compare subjects with the table of contents and manually select them :(
  
  Please, help me...
  Olga

  You do not apply the tag the right way. Applying to the table of contents only excludes the topic to the table of contents online.

  Apply the tag to the section in the project manager, and it will work as you want.

  No bug.

• Which file in RoboHelp 11 is used to store settings for conditional compilation tags

  We share a RoboHelp 11 project between two authors and have noticed that the conditional compilation tags defined by an author are not detected by the second author that accesses this project through version control. I think that the file containing the details of the tags conditional build has not been added to version control, and thus the second author cannot see these details. Does anyone know what this file is called, so I can add it to version control?

  Thank you very much.

  The PSS file gets overwritten if you put it in the source code control, you will get very strange results. You can copy the PSS file between computers, so I would go that route.

  Also have the other author define the same expressions in the preview. Once you have done that, the project will remember them.
