I can't remember for the life of me how I edited my .hmSkin files, but now I need to modify it and am completely stumped.
Couple questions:
1) What's the easiest way of editing skins/templates?
2) what is Toolbox and how or where do I get it from?
Thanks,
Dale

Re: Editing Skins and Templates
Hi Dale,
.hmskin files can be opened and edited in H&M just like an H&M project. They have no topics or TOC, but the same configuration files. When you use a skin in H&M, the skin files are used instead of the configuration files in the project (so editing those files is a waste of time). Remember to save the edited skin before re-compiling your project using it (unless you have both skin and project open in H&M at the same time).
The Toolbox program comes with the Premium Pack skin set, which is an add-on product for H&M. The Toolbox makes editing the Premium Pack skin files easier, but they can also be edited directly in H&M if you prefer (but don't have the skin open in both at the same time).
