How to find out where to edit?

Unread post by Peter Muckle »

Hi Tim,

I'm struggling to work out how to find the correct place to edit skins, for example Minimalist_Blue_Diamond_WebHelp

I've worked most of it out, but can't see where to change the colour of borders in the ToC frame, as below:

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter,

In the current version this has to be edited in the CSS files, but the sections where these things are are commented. There are separate files for the main page and then also for the TOC, Index and Search page contents. And each of these files has three versions for the desktop, tablet and phone modes (only the files needed for the current device are loaded). The names of the files are hmwebhelp_main_xxx.css, hmwebhelp_toc_xxx.css, hmwebhelp_index_xxx.css and hmwebhelp_search_xxx.css. The xxx stands for desktop, tablet and phone, respectively in each case.

This is all going to be made a lot easier in the next major version. 8)
