Comment Icon Not Displaying in TOC

Unread post by lgschwind »

When I inserted Comments in the past by clicking on the TOC entry and then clicking Insert | Comment, the Icon would display in the TOC. Now for some reason it won't. Any suggestions? I attached a screenshot. Thanks.

This was generally an issue in older versions of Help & Manual. Before doing anything else, please make sure you are using the current version of the program, which you can check with Help > About. The current version of HM6 is 6.5.1 Build 2975. You can download the installer here (just install on top of your current version to update):

Hi,

Although they use similar icons, they are two different things.

The icon in the TOC is a topic Bookmark -- Project > Bookmark.

The icon in the topic is a Comment -- Write > Insert Object > Comment.

There is no automatic correlation between the two unless you tick this box:

The icons are slightly different: a short vertical pin v. a long angled pin. Perhaps they should be different colours?

regards,

Martin.

Thank you! It seems it was that checkbox. If insert a comment, I now see the red push pin icon in the TOC once it is saved.
