Hello,
I want to create a drop-down list in/above the TOC as you can see in the screenshot below...
We need this because we work with versions and each version should have its "own" documentation.
Is it possible to implement this? Maybe with toggles/pop-ups/...? I haven't found it in the online help yet.
Thanks a lot and best regards,
Marie

Re: Drop-down list in TOC
Hi Marie,
You don't say what documentation format you're using but I'm assuming it's WebHelp. That then wouldn't be in the content of your project or anything you would create with Help+Manual itself, because it's not in the content of your project. It's in the HTML of the page where the content is displayed, which is defined by the skin you use to publish the WebHelp.
Both the standard skins with the word "Integrated IFrames" in their names and the Premium Pack skins have configurable drop-down menus in their header bars that you can use for something like this. In the standard Integrated skins, edit the skin in Help+Manual and then navigate to Configuration > Publishing Options > WebHelp > Layout. You will find the source code of the configurable menu between the <IF_HM_INCLUDE_MENU> and </IF_HM_INCLUDE_MENU> tags.
For instructions for the Premium Pack skins see these pages in the Premium Pack documentation:
V3 Responsive Skins
V2 WebHelp Skins
