Re: Integrated Zoom indexer

You are correct, Tim, the png finding is purely coincidental. The string is not in any file, and not in the zdat files. In fact the issue is in everything that H+M publishes with integral Zoom indexing. It seems to be any 3-char string ending "as". Search for xas or zas, for example, with ...

Re: Integrated Zoom indexer

I realise this sounds odd. This is one of the projects where this happens: https://portal.7thsense.one/user-guides/M723-delta2_8-user-guide/ My search in project web pages seems to find non-text strings (i.e. not text in the actual page) and points to those pages containing them, with no highlighted...

Integrated Zoom indexer

I use the integrated Wrensoft Zoom indexer when creating each user manual. I use the full Zoom product to index the whole site of all user manuals (there are many). This is because I don't want to have to create an offline config in Zoom for every individual manual. It works well. Except I found by ...

Re: image toggle magnifier svg

Thanks Tim. Yes I'm already doing that with the css in my custom stylesheet. I was hoping to do a bit more than this, but never mind, if it's not possible. That's what I needed to know.

Re: image toggle magnifier svg

I can't make any progress on this without further guidance. "locate it in your WebHelp output folder and edit it in a graphics program supporting SVG" doesn't help because there isn't an SVG in the output folder. The magnifier SVG is redefined in the output code every place it is used. I c...

Re: image toggle magnifier svg

Excellent. Thank Tim. Obvious when you say it - I just couldn't find any reference for it. BUT, there isn't any svg file in the final html folder - or I'd have seen it already. The svg class and path is written out every time in any html page using it, defined by the process of writing the help. I c...

image toggle magnifier svg

Is there any way of editing the svg class path? Or is it hard-coded in the program? I'd quite like to tweak/change the magnifier image, not just fill and stroke.

Re: Parenthesis is moved to another line alone in PDF

Is there still no update on this? There are unavoidable instances where styling cannot fix this problem, and it is a problem. When publishing large documents in multiple formats lots of little fixes just for the sake of PDF layout should be unnecessary.

Make page toggles default expanded

Using the iFrames responsive skin for webhelp: For a page with a number of expanding toggled sections, and the button: <a href="javascript:HMToggleExpandAll(!HMAnyToggleOpen())" title="Click to open/close expanding sections"><span class="hmbtntoggle"></span></a> Is it p...

Add date formatting to <%TOPICLASTEDITED%>

Any project with many topics, some of which are rarely updated, others where last edit date is important, will need to use <%TOPICLASTEDITED%>. Providing <%TOPICLASTEDITED%> reflects the date stamp of the topic xml file, this can be added to the default HTML template for automatic edit stamping. How...

Re: Language Setting unexpectedly affects date format

Thank you. I understand that now - I didn't realise that these were build designators. I don't, however, want to build everything three times, especially since it seems I can't find a variable for the xml topic file timestamp that operates in the default template. <%TOPICLASTEDITED%> is clearly what...

Re: Language Setting unexpectedly affects date format

Ah! So there is no variable reflecting the xml timestamp. And I confused by generalising <IF_[lang]> for your <IF_BRIT> and <IF_USA> alternatives. So is <IF_BRIT> valid, and would this display the date according to a UK/EU browser's local PC? And similarly <IF_USA> would respond to a USA reader's lo...

Re: Language Setting unexpectedly affects date format

OK; thanks for this. Can I clarify how this works? <%NOW%> in the project HTML Default template: will this generate the date the project was last published to webhelp, or the date the topic was last changed (the xml file date)? <IF_[lang]> detects the end-user's (reader's) computer language settings...

Re: Language Setting unexpectedly affects date format

Accepting that we might all adopt ISO 8601, in reality we don't, so only having the short date form for <%TOPICLASTEDITED%> etc. isn't good enough for UK/US spanning organisations. I would like to carry a last edited stamp to show on each topics - not the current date (<%NOW%>) every time an edit of...
