Is there any way to copy the Topic Files within the Project Files section between projects?

Thanks Tim. You answered the question I just logged on to ask - not being able to copy hidden topics between projects.

I tried creating my own skin, as it has the corporate colours and logos. However, the same scro...

I finally convinced my employer to upgrade to V7! However, when compiling to CHM or EWriter, any images that contain hotspots do not scroll with the rest of the page. I need the images to remain with the text when scrolling up or down the page. Is there a setting for this???

Not sure what I might have done here, but when I pdf documents, only about 3/4 of the page displays as it should and the rest is put on the following page. This is happening in all my documents with all my templates. I even tried it with the original templates that came with H&M and I am having ...

In H&M 4 it is in Project - Project Properties - Adobe PDF - PDF Layout - Insert Page Referrers (page icons with page numbers).

Should be similar to H&M 5.

Always glad to help a fellow canuck (even though you're from the same city as the Ottawa Senators ).
