That's it, they are listed in the compiler log only with the Allow links to be dead option.

Hello! For preventing dead links, our projects use the Remove link setting; however, I noticed that in this case compile log doesn't list the undefined anchors, only the links that were actually converted into plain text. Naturally the workaround is to compile once in a while with the Allow links to...

A funny sort of bug. Sometimes the include options in publishing dialog (tried it only in Task Manager) are shown in two columns 4 items in each, and as I have more than two custom builds I cannot see them all. This happens only in HTML/CHM formats, where there's a Skin Options panel at the right si...

Not exactly a bug:
most my tables are set to complete autosize or 99% width with no locked columns. In WebHelp (and CHM) the result looks fine, the column widths are adjusted to the content: In PDF, however, they stubbornly occupy exactly equal widths. Any way to change this?

I personally just continue to commit with Tortoise, works fine. H&M updates the page icons automatically.

Well yes, hubby2laura, but you also need to remove the Index listing on Table of Contents print manual page (it was in the last line in the template I used).

Hello Alexander & Tim,

Let me tell you I really appreciate the speed of your support! All the more that it's not often met with... (in other places I mean)

Yes, I actually wanted to maintain two different help files (sharing a lot of pages) from one project, so changing the settings every time is, well, inconvenient.

I'm sorry if the question is already covered, couldn't find it with search.
What do I do if an alternative TOC needs a different home page from the main one? Also a different window title would be nice.

Thank you, my mistake.

I have several projects, they are under svn control and use the same styles, which makes it reasonable to use a style repository. But how do I do it? The repository is in zip-compressed format, so it cannot be put under svn. Keeping it in a network location is a lot less convenient, and also I would...

Hey Martin, just wanted to thank you for this great tip! I can actually feel it saving my sanity until the next time =) Most table problems in H&M can be cured by setting the table width to 99% instead of 100%. There may be a discrepancy of a few pixels, but you won't have the unpredictable resu...

No Arya for me, thanks. In fact I'm rather off Martin though lots of friends are fans.

Hello Tim,
I'm sorry for the false alarm: I cannot reproduce the problem on the new build I got last week, so it was probably connected with merged cells import (almost all my tables have them).

Thanks for help with that one. I don't want to create too many topics, so here's another question about table import: when I import from CHM tables that have id or class attribute in HTML table tag, the table is not imported and the id is imported as anchor instead. Of course I can (and have) just r...
