Set Expanding Section Toggle default to EXPAND ALL

H+M Pro 7.5.3 Build 4740

Hello,

I have been creating all of our WebHelp manuals using the Expanding Section Toggle within topics, as designed (toggled section is collapsed, and the user can click to expand/collapse).

Someone else has decided that they want all of the toggled content in the manuals to be expanded, and leave it up to the viewer to decide if they want to selectively click the section header to collapse the toggle content. What is the easiest way to implement this?

Note: I will also be adding Expand All/Collapse All links.

Thank you,

Hi Jett,

If you really want to do this, just activate the Help: Expanded option at the upper left for each toggle. Then they will open expanded by default. This is generally not such a good idea, however, as it undermines the whole point of having toggles in the first place and will make the topics much harder to read and less accessible. :?
