Book / topic icons

Does anyone know where I can get some other icons for the
"book", "topic" "remote web" and maybe even "multimedia" icons that
I can add to my skins? I'm currently using RH X5.02 on XP SP2.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim
You might try the Gallery. When you are inserting an image,
click the Gallery tab and look at the Books_and_pages area.
Aside from that, perhaps look on the web for icons. I have
come to find the site below useful for that.

Changing book/topic icons?

Greetings.
My design team would like to replace the classic book/topic
icons. Instead, they'd like to use a box with an x for a closed
book, a box with a hyphen for an open book, and a simple hyphen for
a topic.
I can't even recall ever seeing different icons. Is changing
them even possible? If so, how?
Thank you!

You can do this with your skin. If you open your skin editor,
click on the Navigation tab and there you can specify images for a
closed or open book. Just specify your chosen image, try one of the
ones in the RH Gallery, and compile.

Book mark icon in Adhoc query?

Hi,
There is an Adhoc query created by the end user.The book mark icon available is not working but the CONTEXT MENU on any of the values is producing the book mark properly.Can just any one help me to find the solution of this?
Why BOOK MARK ICON is on

Vasu,
then there seems to be some issue with your ad-hoc template - was it modified in any way ? that could be causing this issue. If the temnplate was not modified then reactivate the same from business content and check.
The ad-hoc template depends on your BI version. Which version of BI are you on ?

Book Mark Icon is not working?

Hi,
There is an Adhoc query created by the end user.The book mark icon available is not working but the CONTEXT MENU on any of the values is producing the book mark properly.Can just any one help me to find the solution of this?
Why BOOK MARK ICON is not working?
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Book mark is URL we are getting after the clcking on the EIther on the ICON or context menu option.This URL can be used any where where ever is required.Right?
But In my case the URL Content is chainging based on the Adhoc query designer.Only characterstics are again and again changing but key figures are original only.
please help me?

U mean to say the Book Mark URL created on one system will not work on another system right?
=>the Book Mark URL created on one system may not work on another system right? in fact in 80% cases it works...
But what once I execute the query in portal I will be getting an URL.This also can be used as Book mark right?
=>yes, it can be used,,,
but the URL generated with the function of the BOOK MARK is only called as Book mark why is it?
=> let me explain this with an example ... there is a BW server physically located in France and can be accessible across all the location wherever project is running. Somebody try to access the Query URL from Gurgaon (one of the project location)which was executed in France may not be run in Gurgaon (Page cant be displayed) because port # in the URL may be blocked in Gurgaon due to security reason,,, this case we have to contact the admin ,they will enable the port..same case i have faced

Change the topic icon in Webhelp TOC?

We are using RoboHelp 9 on a Windows 7 platform.
When we publish Webhelp, the topic icon in the published output has a question mark in it.
We have had almost universal feedback from our target audience that they are confused by the question mark (they thought it indicated an error occurred when we published the Webhelp). Is there a way to specify a different topic icon for the TOC in the properties of RoboHelp somewhere, but retain the "Default" skin?
We have two alternatives that we would prefer not to use:
1. Change the wht_toc3.gif file in the published output. (We publish often, so we want to avoid a post-publishing clean-up task.)
2. Go into the RoboHelp 9 application folder on the C drive where the GIF file resides and change it there.
We guess the folder is located here, although we found the file in a few different places:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 9\RoboHTML\WebHelp5Ext\template_skin
An icon that would be an acceptable replacement would be whd_toc3.gif (it has three horizontal lines in it instead of a question mark).
Is there any way to make this change in RoboHelp project or Webhelp properties anywhere?
Thanks in advance!
Tim

Hi Tim,
If I understood you correctly, then here is the answer. You can go to Project Setup Pod> Skins and double click on the Default Skin, In the right hand side top corner click on Navigation, Underneath that Topic/Page> change the image of the Topic and press ok.
Generate the webhelp.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Topic Icon skin in RoboHelp10

How or Can I update the image on my view of the topic icon?
I wanted to change the icon that represents the topic in the TOC so I went to Project Setup and went to Skins and on the Default skin I right clicked and selected Edit. Then I went to the Navigation tab and selected a new image for the Topic/Page. When I compile I see the new image for the topics, but in Project Manager I still see the old image.
How or Can I update the image on my view for the topic icon?
Thank you!

I'm not sure whether I understand. Where do you still see the old icons?
In the TOC in RoboHelp? (That's normal.) Or is your output not working
as expected somehow?
Kind regards,
Willam

Missing TOC books & topics in RH Server output -- is there a fix??

RH9, RH Server 9,WebHelp Pro
I've seen a post a few months old now reporting the problem of nested books and topics not showing up in WebHelp Pro RH9 Server output even though they display fine in the local output before and after publication.
Has there been a fix for this?
I have a large project, over 400 topics, and it seems to affect books that are nested at level 4 and below. I have a level 3 book with several level 4 books inside it. The published output shows only the first level 4 book, and its contents, but then it omits the remaining level 4 books in that group and jumps to the next level 3 book.
This is not a merged project.
When I run the TOC report, all content is shown correctly in the report.

Hi. Sorry you're having glitches. While I research my notes from similar situations, I offer these things worth looking at:
1. This is a Knowlege Base article with a download that may help:
Books, topics missing from TOC | WebHelp Pro output | RoboHelp Server 8, 9
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/904/cpsid_90498.html
2. Take a look at this thread (in particular, Message #10):
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3691553#3691553
I don't remember offhand but I think there may indeed be a limit of three "nested books" in a TOC, although I just experimented with this and I found it worked down to 6 or 7 nests.
3. I know in the past I have noticed that sometimes the culprit has been an oddball "illegal" character or space in a subfolder or filename. One client found that an exclamation point in a filename was a problem.
4. To be clear, remember that WebHelp (not Pro) has some very important differences from RoboHelp Server (Pro) output. Also, understand that when you view WebHelp Pro locally (i.e. View Results) you are not getting a fully accurate picture. Often, you must view the project from the RoboHelp Server to truly see the results.
5. With regard to Search. I have found in some cases that ticking the "Automatically Merge Projects of the Same Type" helps even though you only have one project!
6. I have found that a project that has been "renamed" can cause the server's configuration to be choke on the new name as it looks for the old one.
Let me know if any of this helps. If it does not, I'd suggest you zip up your Tomcat Log files and send them to me. I'll ask the Adobe folks if they could take a look.
You can find them here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\logs
Because they might be large, you might just send the most recent day's worth.
I realize this is a "dump" of so many possibilities but it's the weekend and I know you must be frustrated so I thought I'd pass along all ideas no matter how remote.

Oracle Help book topic

In oracle 6i there is an item property called, "Help Book Topic". Can some one tell me how to use this.
Regards
ZIA

This property was used by "Oracle Book" a product that doesn't exist anymore.

Changing the Topic Icon

Someone asked me this question--can the Topic icon, with the
question mark inside, be replaced with something similar that does
not have the question mark?
I'm curious if anyone has heard this one before.
Regards,
Sharon

Hi all
I'd be asking where exactly you are seeing the icon. TOC?
Browse Sequence panel in a CHM? Where?
In CHM, assuming you are talking about the TOC, you may
change it by right-clicking the page in the TOC Editor. Then choose
Properties. From there, choose the Advanced tab. Once there, you
may choose any of 42 different images!
If you are referring to the images that appear in the Browse
Sequence bar of a CHM, you may not change those. I estimate they
are governed by the HHActiveX.DLL file.
Cheers... Rick

TOC Book & Pages icons

I am using RoboHelp7 and have imported a project from an
earlier version. I'd like to change the icon in the TOC from the
question mark to a "page" icon for a number of documents. How would
I do that? Thanks!

Hi there
When editing a skin you really only have a choice between four images.
One to represent a closed book or a collapsed area
One to represent an open book or an expanded area
One to represent a page
One to represent a link to an external web site
It's unclear as to why you are expecting to see more than a single icon for a page. If you don't wish to see the question mark icon, you need to browse to another image to select it. RoboHelp does offer a number of alternate images to choose from. You will find them in the Gallery folder where RoboHelp has been installed.
Cheers... Rick

Which book topics to follow for exam 1Z0-007? Sybex or Oracle press?

Hi, I am studying following both books for exam 1Z0-007 but sybex book by Chip Dawes covers more topics then oracle book. I am wondering if i still need to study those topics in sybex book which are not covered in oracle press book? For example DML Locks have been discussed in detail in sybex book as compare to oracle book and few topics are missing in oracle press and don't know if there will be any question in the exam from those topics?
1) OCP Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL Exam Guide by Jason Couchman
2) OCA/OCP: Introduction to Oracle9i SQL Study Guide by Chip Dawes, Biju Thomas
Can anyone pls advise? Also i like to know if SelfTest software covers same questions which are in sybex and oracke press book? Because SelfTest software has same questions for microsoft exams which are already in the cd of microsoft official press books.
Thanks

ThanksChill.
The proper method is to look at the exam topics on [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1001&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_007] which is authorative.
either the Sybex or Oracle Press book is authorative, and sometimes exam changes after these are printed (with revision from 9iR1 to9iR2 for example).
In general you should probably have enough material in the two books given for this exam. Its probably cheaper to take the exam itself rather than buy additional Selftest questions. Your time may well be better spent practicing the things you have trouble with. Also be aware these books can have errors. And learn whichever is in either book even if it isnt examined. Its good for you!

Low Resolution Address Book Dock Icon

A friend of mine had managed to trash Address Book so I reinstalled it using "Optional Installs" from the iMac Mac OS X Install DVD.
Install was successful but when I add the Address Book icon to the dock it looks blurry and slightly pixelated. The Address Book icon in Finder is normal.

Roger,
Right click on the Applications Folder in the Dock, and select: Display as Folder.

Book Store Icons

I downloaded The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins from the book store onto my iPad 2, (free download). Some days after it had downloaded, its icon has turned from the pleasantly simple generic free book download cover to a text-free image that looks like an old Aqua Apple desktop computer - or perhaps a blue smartphone - with a small screen and three oval buttons below. Deleting the book and re-downloading makes no difference. In the old days on a Mac I would have rebuilt the desktop file. Anyone know what might be causing this and/or how to fix? The book works fine otherwise, by the way, but looks pretty weird on the shelves! Thank you.

Don't know why the icon changed but all my drm-free/public domain books have that "blue smarthphone" as icon in iBooks. I guess it becomes the cover photo in the epub-file when the ebook has no own cover photo?
It might be too much work to only change the cover photo and there might be better ways but what you could do on your PC (don't know if it works for Mac too) if the epub is drm-free :
get calibre (free epub managing software)
add the ebook from your iTunes library to the calibre library
change the cover photo via "edit metadata" in calibre (it even can automatically download something fitting from the internet or you choose a file from your PC)
convert the epub in calibre to epub again (only to make that photo change lasting)
re-add the epub to your iTunes library
delete the old file from your iTunes library (maybe you better delete the old file before re-adding if iTunes will not add it again or to avoid duplicates or to avoid deleting the wrong file)
sync it to your iPad (I hope it recognizes that the file changed and syncs it; if not, delete the book from iBooks and sync again)

Mac Book Pro icons

When I bought a Mac Book Pro 6 months ago I remember seeing two icons: an iCloud icon and a Mac icon.
I had my choice as to what source I wanted to pull files from.
Now that scheme has disappeared. I wonder what happened to it.
Thank you
