Tools menu of RoboHelp HTML idle for projects in RoboSource Control

I just upgraded our projects to support of X 3 X 5 and installed (and started using for the first time) RoboSource Control. The problem is that when I opened an aid project which is part of the RSC in RoboHelp HTML, the 'Tools' menu is inactive - really, it is not available. If I hold the cursor over 'Tools', it just flickers and does even not the menu drop down. I tried to open a backup copy (it is thus under the RSC) of one project and the 'Tools' menu works fine. Examples of project work very well also. This problem occurs on our server dedicated to CSR and my client machine.

It seems that it is a problem RSC. Note that I have installed all updates (5.02) on the server and my client machine.

Thoughts?

Aid projects MUST be added to a database of RoboSource Control in RoboHelp html. Do NOT add the project assistance to a basis of RoboSource Control with the ADD FILES... option in the Explorer RoboSource Control.

We have 12 aid projects. Each project has its own database of RoboSource Control. Each project aid has added to its database using the Add FOLDERS... option in the Explorer RoboSource Control. Earlier today, I discovered that some of the topics in a particular database were corrupt so I rebuilt the database by using the add to THE VERSION CONTROL... option in RoboHelp HTML. He has successfully created and when I opened the project help in RoboHelp HTML, worked all of a sudden the menu 'tools '. I have rebuilt since a different database using RoboHelp HTML and I'm 2 for 2. I will update this post if I encounter other problems.

  • Guide easy to use to move the project to RoboSource Control?

    We have an existing RH9 project and we want to make it accessible to multiple authors. Where can I find a guide step by step simple to use RoboSource Control to implement a multi-author environment? We have RH9 server.

    I watched the RoboSource Control Help file and I find it fucking going - it seems to be targeted to specialist authors rather than using network.

    Hi, in addition to the excellent suggestion of Willam, I thought that I have would develop a bit since this happens quite often.

    If you deploy RoboSource Control in a 32-bit Windows environment, I would direct you to this article:

    Getting started with RoboSource Control 3

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet-archive/RoboHelp/articles/RoboSource.html

    This gives a pretty good procedure step by step for the implementation. But you can also take a look at alternatives that can be integrated into RoboHelp:

    Alternatives:

    RoboSource Control was inherited by Adobe of the old eHelp Corporation and has not been changed since. There are a few known issues when used on 64-bit Windows 7 machines more and more popular.  This is why you would be well advised to consider alternative solutions that Adobe has usefully documented (see below).

    It seems that most of the new facilities of control code Source for RoboHelp are turning to open (free) applications such as Subversion (with Tortoise SVN)

    You can read an article from Adobe on this here:
    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/RoboHelp/articles/robohelp_subversion.html

    Another alternative is explained by Mark Whisler (a famous Forum contributing here!) in his article:
    Integrate projects RoboHelp 9 with Perforce
    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/RoboHelp/articles/Perforce-integration.htm l

    RoboHelp can also be used with Team Foundation Server if it is something that is already using your company. A good article explaining this can be found here:
    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/RoboHelp/articles/RoboHelp-TFS-integration .html

    For the record, the RoboSource Control 3.1 (32-bit only) is still available and can be found here:

    RoboSource Control can be installed from your DVD or unzipped download.

    If you have of TCS3, can be found in \Add-ons\Adobe control 9\RoboSource to RoboHelp.

    If you have RoboHelp 9, he will find in \RoboSource control.

    Hope you find these useful options.

  • RoboHelp hangs at startup and using robosource control

    Hello world

    I'm relatively new to this forum. I have used RH X5.02 now for a few months.
    |' m quite happy with it so far and find all the posts very useful here.

    So I was happy until last Monday, when I came back from 10-day vacation.
    Normally I start HR by clicking a link to RoboHTML.exe to my office.
    Instead of asking me which of my projects open, I got ZILCH.
    HR block just, the only way to stop is to use the Task Manager to end the process.
    The same thing happens when I want to add a project to version control.

    the icons of my 'most recently used file list' (Tools - Options - general) contain a big question mark red.
    I can't remember than before.
    From previous postings I unchecked "save without prompting."
    It doesn't change anything.

    I experience installation PushOK CVS SCC NT interface (v 2.1.1.2) to be able to use the Turtoise CVS version control system that seemed to work OK.
    I decide to use the Turtoise and PushOK system yet, but kept on the use of RoboSource control. PushOK interface has no uninstall because I wanted to do an additional test on our central CVS Turtoise system later.
    I had to renew the trial for PushOK software license when I came back. It came when I started the first time RoboHTML after my vacation.

    As I suspected that this additional interface might have something to do with my problems, I uninstalled and reinstalled the software, without having to reinstall the PushOK software. I took out of version control projects until I uninstalled everything.

    I expected to have no problem after all this, but to my surprise, it didn't matter.
    I think that there must be something in the registry or the project files themselves.

    I'm working on several projects HTML HR in 'same time', pass from one to the other. All projects are (or were) in RoboSource control.
    I am working on a Dell laptop with Windows XP Professional which is automatically updated to the latest versions. Yes, all files are installed locally on the laptop, including files in the RoboSource Control.
    We use Antivirus NOD 32 software.

    Everyone can shine some light on this situation?

    TKS, Paul

    Then

    1] you can open a project to source code control

    [2] cannot open a project to source code control

    [3] cannot open RoboHelp without pointing to a project.

    My first attempt would be to uninstall and Reinstall RoboHelp but you have already done this. That failed, see the topic on my site on installation of RoboHelp. It includes a complete uninstall, some extra steps that involve going into the registry. If normal precautions should be taken.

    See how it goes.

  • How to reconnect to a project of RoboSource Control?

    Hi, our RoboSource Control Server was offline for a few hours, so I worked in offline mode in several projects. In one of those, I have more clicked on 'do not try to reconnect in the future' (or what was this option), because now there is no connection. Can someone tell me please how to reconnect the project to the files that already exist in RoboSource? I don't want to add the new...

    (Not that I think it makes a difference, but I use always RH8 and RoboSource 3.1.)

    Thank you!

    Figured it out eventually: I opened the XPJ project file in Notepad and replaced the section with a copy of this article that I had copied from a saved version of the XPJ file.

    Apparently, the section is the part that says HR to connect with RoboSource Control.

    Hope this helps someone else...

  • Addition of carousel created with jQuery for project

    I tried to add a carousel developed using jquery for my RoboHelp HTML 9 (webhelp) project and I am having some problems.  Whenever I build my project the carousel does not charge whenever I have anything that is contained in the content categories in the navigation bar on the left (opening the index.htm).

    However, if I have nothing in the content categories or I open the file htm containing the carousel directly (rather than clicking on index.htm), the carousel is loaded correctly.

    Are there files produced by RoboHelp I need to manually change to allow the javascript files that I use to work with index.htm when there are content categories?  I'm new to RoboHelp and would appreciate advice on how to overcome this problem.

  • Legend icons for RoboHelp HTML?

    Greetings, RH9 assessment to decide whether this is a useful purchase and I am feel very difficult to get up and running.

    After this long introduction, are the two questions for today: is there a place where a legend of icons?

    I have question marks on topics (to create a project, import a Word doc), and have no idea what they represent and what should I do to standardize the headings to be without these polling points.

    Also, yesterday tried to import an HTML document with lots of sections DIV (11 pages) and no subjects have been created in RoboHelp HTML. What would be the correct way to import it so that each DIV is a separate topic?

    I'd appreciate help get something really works.

    Thank you, Donna

    Are you referring to these icons?

    If so, this is the icon of the standard HR topic.

  • Where detailed instructions for developers to link the RoboHelp HTML files to an application?

    I'm pass RoboHelp for word in RoboHelp HTML. The initial project of assistance was created years ago, and the developers who worked on it are not here anymore. Where can I find detailed instructions for our developers understand how to link the files to RoboHelp for our product application? (I haven't decided yet if you want to use Microsoft HTML Help or WebHelp as a main page layout. More information on how to associate the files could help me decide).

    Also, are there instructions anywhere to help understand how to bind the files in application contextual help card ID?

    Thank you, Jessica and Pete! I'll try MSHelpWiki and see if the developers can figure out with this info. If they use Delphi, I'll try the HelpScribble site.

    Thanks for all help

  • HP Start Menu and the desktop icons for HP printer Diagnostic tools

    Hello world

    I have a HP Desktop F4440 all-in-one printer and I use the Windows XP operating system. I have all the scanning software and others installed from the original HP installation disk or updates from the HP Web site for this printer. Everything works very well at the moment, but there is a small problem. The HP icon shortcuts for the Menu start-up and functions for the printer changed to a generic icon at a time given to these two places after the software installation CD was used by me to install the printer programs or desktop icon HP to utilities "Diagnostic Tools HP printer" original. It works fine otherwise, when I want to go check something on the Tools of diagnosis HP printer or HP Solution Center, but the HP icon changed to a generic at a time for a reason unknown, inexplicable. I don't have no changes to my system until the problem occurred to my knowledge other casual upgrade for the operating system or install a new windows update or HP software updates or restart the computer, but some schooner point after one of these upgrades, HP put to date or restart the HP start menu and desktop icons time replaced by a generic.

    Can someone tell me how I can recover the original HP icon and get her back Amendment? It was an icon on the web since the HP printer Diagnostics utility or function is based on the web. Is there a way I can save a copy of just the file on my computer icon so that if it goes back to that generic again once I can more easily change what it is supposed to be? I thank very you much for your help and advice.

    Hi there yoseph13,

    What has happened to me too, but after a windows update. Half the icons on my desktop have been affected. I hope that this fix works for you as well. Right-click on the icon. Go to properties. Click Change icon. Select the icon and click ok then apply and ok again. If the icon does not appear, you will need to navigate to the folder of the software and select the application.

    Good luck!

  • RoboHelp HTML Version 7 - when does end for Version 7?

    I will repeat the question in the case: RoboHelp HTML Version 7 - when does end for Version 7?

    Thanks, Chuck

    You say 'I'll repeat the question in the present case' as if you've been ignored. Where did you go after because I didn't know asked recently.

    I understand the policy of Adobe support for the current and previous version. That would mean support ended with the introduction of RoboHelp 9 which was around June 2011.

    For the most part, you should get all the support you need here, but it will be limited to supporters of the forum are all passed to later versions. Therefore, until we can remember.

    Whether or not stick you with your current version will depend on your outings. If it's CHMS you should be fine and Print will be OK as long as stick you with a version of Word taken in charge by Rh7. If you need to generate WebHelp, expect all sorts of problems for which there is no solution.

  • RoboHelp HTML crashes after emptying a project

    Hello

    I use Framemaker to do most of my creation and then import the files into RoboHelp HTML to generate HTML Help. As the first step of importing the files, I have to delete all the topics, table of contents entries and entries IX of the RoboHelp project. If I do this, I find myself with duplicates everywhere in the project.

    After the project I have empty and try to save it, HR goes belly up and I have to click through two sets of dialog boxes "Adobe Robohelp 7 has encountered a problem and needs to close." After you click 'Send error report' a dozen times, I wonder if there is anything I can do about this problem.

    Thank you
    John B.

    Hi all

    John, I couldn't help but notice that you said you are trying to delete ALL the content of the project. And here's where my instincts tell me the lies of the question.

    My thought is that you could take the following approach. Create a unique topic. One that will never exist in Framemaker. Only in RoboHelp. Then forget about this topic. Don't delete ever or something. Then, when you do your own out, I would take this approach.

    Clear the table of contents and Index. Does not matter the order in which you use. These first hunting just as you shoot. I say FLUSH these, because they depend on the content in the topics.
    Rinse the subjects. Hey, all, but the only subject which should remain.

    Here, my thought is that if you remove the entire system's RoboHelp goes belly up with no subject. And if you deleted the items first, RoboHelp can be gobs of updates gagging as she foolishly tries to follow all the sudden broken links to table of contents and Index items. That is why I proposed these as a first step.

    Please give it a go and let us know if it helps... Rick

  • How to close a form automatically if it is idle for a minute?

    We are talking about 10 forms here. We want to do this: we have a forms applications. Open a form in the menu and the user uses. Now, if the user does not use the form for 1 minute, i.e. If the form is idle for one minute without keyboard or mouse activity we want to give a message to the use and close the form or to block/gel form.

    How do this pls?

    The only way to support to do would be to create a java bean that monitors the activity of the client. Demonstration of how to do this is available on the forms download page:

    http://www.Oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/downloads/index.html

    Search: "timeout Java Bean". Remember that this is only an exampleof _____. To use this example in your production application, it may be necessary to adapt the java code to meet your needs. This example is not supported by the Support of Oracle. Use it at your own risk.

    You will probably get suggestions to set FORMS_TIMEOUT to a value less than the PULSATION. It is strongly discouraged because it can cause unpredictable results and let the end user with a comparing browser hanging. Again, using a java bean is the preferred method.
