Vary number of rows in a table automatically
Hello. I have a table that consists purely of text variables. Is there a way to make the blank rows disappear when the variables in those rows are blank or don't exist?

Hi Julie,
That isn't something you can do in Help+Manual, and that would be necessary if you are going to be outputting to formats that you can't script (Word, PDF, ePub, Kindle, printed manuals). In WebHelp, CHM and eWriter you could theoretically add JavaScript to perform that task automatically on opening each topic, but that would also add processing overheads to the browsing.Julie Kaiser wrote: ↑Thu Apr 21, 2022 9:42 am Hello.
