Can you specify the RH version from a command prompt?

When using command prompts to generate WebHelp output, is there a way to specify which version of Robohelp will be used?
Here's the situation:
We recently upgraded all of our help projects to RH8, installed RH8 on our software build server, and are now successfully using command prompts to generate RH8 output files (webhelp) during our s/w build process.
However, since the help system for our last major release is still in RH7, we also need to be able to automatically generate output in RH7 using the same build server, which has both versions of the s/w are installed. This is in case we need to send out a patch release before our next major release becomes available.
When we ran the build program for the last software release (the one with the RH7 help system), the command prompts now cause RH8 to run and to generate RH8 output. But since these files are still in RH7 format, the generated output has various issues with lists and templates--basically all the stuff that I spent 2-3 days fixing manually fix when upgrading to RH8.
Anyone know how to control which Robohelp version will run when using command prompts? (using RH8 help files with the last software release is not an option--there have been too many changes).
Thanks.

I have a feeling that I once tried to change the default version of RoboHelp and it wasn't successful first time. As it was not that important, I didn't poke around any more.
Maybe you could try changing the default version but I wouldn't like to answer for any undesired results you may get. I suspect by far the easier option is to install RH7 on another machine.
One other warning. I do recall that on one machine after uninstalling RH7, I had to reinstall RH8 as it created problems.

    Can you take the SIM card from an IPad and transfer it to a NEW Ipad (not yet purchased) without any problems? Are there any complicated steps involved? This is for my boss.
    Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

    Simple answer is YES.
    The only caviat is for instance in the UK some iPads are locked to a specific network provider and therefore if the new iPad is locked then it will only work on the specific network it is locked to.

    Apple UK site can not be shipping outside the uk
     Can you pay the money directly from MasterCard to Apple
    Then send the iPhone by Aramex or dhl directly to Saudi Arabia
    Thanks

    However many people contact Apple support for there is nothing that either they or you can do.
    Apple stores online do NOT provide international shipping, end of story.
    If you want an unlocked iPhone 5, you will either have to wait until they are available nearer to you or you need to physically travel to the UK and purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 there.  Rememeber though about warranty issues - not international so it means you'll have to physically return to the UK if anything goes wrong with the phone.
    If you have a friend travelling to the UK, then they could purchase one for you and then you could put a local Saudi nano sim card in the phone when they become available over there.
    Other than that, just be patient and wait until they become available.

  • Can you control the OS Volume from Flash

    hi guys, Can you control the master windows OS volume from
    within flash.
    My understanding is that within the soundobject.volume, 100
    mean 100% of the current windows volume setting.
    Can control the windows setting seperatly as well (the same
    way you could/can in Director)?
    Rich

    Yes - the JavaScript that's in export.js was rolled into inline code in the Java jar files sometime during version 11.5.
    It's no longer customizable.
    An option is to use HTTP Filter on your Java Web App to modify the outgoing JavaScript instream, but that's never a pretty solution.
    Sincerely,

  • Can you specify the full path to jar in archive_jini

    can you put the full path to the client.jar file in the formsweb.cfg archive_jini parameter? like this:
    archive_jini=d:\something\somethingelse\client.jar
    or does it have to exist under %ORACLE_HOME%\forms\java ?

    None of the two. The path path is a relative web-url, for the content of archive_jni will be placed in the generated html which is "executed" by the users browser. So you either place your jar in $ORACLE_HOME/forms/java and put it without any path in the archive_jni-tag, or (more appreciated by myself), create a virtual directory (either by alias or by orion-web.xml) in your oas and place the jar in the according phycial path.

  • Can you specify the port for default services when installing OEG?

    Hi everyone,
    The default installation of OEG 11g uses 8090 port for management services, and 8080 for the virtualized services that you register in the gateway. After installation, you can change the ports by editing gateway's Profile Repository in Policy Studio. But is there a way to specify the port number before/during the installation?
    Thanks,
    Iris

    Hi -
    here are the steps to change the listening port (in 11.1.1.6)
    - Connect to OEG using Policy Studio
    - Click on "Edit Active Configuration"
    - Under "Services", find the default services, and you'll see a listener for port 8080 there. Right-click to edit this.
    - Change the port from 8080 to your desired port. Note that if you've installed the software and running it as a non-root user on Linux, then it will not have permission to bind to a low-number port (like port 80 for instance)
    - Now deploy your change (for 11.1.1.6 hit F6 or click on the "deploy" button which is towards the right of the toolbar in Policy Studio).
    - You may also choose to version your configuration at this point (click on "version" which is beside the "deploy" button and enter a comment about your version).
    Now verify that OEG is listening on your new port. You can see it bind to the new port by looking at the trace [Connect a browser to port 8090 on OEG, login as admin or another user who has rights to view the trace, then click on "Trace"].
    It's a usual practice to configure a new listener on SSL (e.g. on port 443) then to delete that pre-configured port 8080 listener, if you want to only receive traffic over SSL.

  • Can you specify the background color when resizing the canvas?

    I haven't found this in the Scripting Reference.
    In the "Canvas Size…" dialog box you can specify the "Canvas Extension Color" to "Foreground", Background", "White", "Black", "Grey" or "Other…".
    Can this be scripted?
    I am writing an AppleScript to resize my canvas in order to add a slug to the bottom of the image. Currently my script stores the background color, so I can change it to White to accomplish my goal without discarding the background color (which gets restores at the end of the script). The problem is that if the user has a custom color (i.e. Pantone color) as the background color, the color does not get stored.

    See if this works for you… Just some very basic AppleScript with a call to 'do javascript' in this case the variable 'Solid_Fill' this is a cleaned up piece of scriptlistener output (done very nicely by X's tools you will see a post below to the latest release of this) The scriptlistener output has been turned into a function that javascript can call. Inside of the function call I have put a list arguments passed from AppleScript. So the values 0, 0, 0, 0 in the AppleScript list end up as arguments passed to the functions C, M, Y, K variables. AppleScript objects are 1 based Javascript are 0 based & values the same.
    set Solid_Fill to "function solidFillCMYK(C, M, Y, K) {
    function cTID(s) { return app.charIDToTypeID(s); };
    function sTID(s) { return app.stringIDToTypeID(s); };
    var desc8 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var ref4 = new ActionReference();
    ref4.putClass( sTID('contentLayer') );
    desc8.putReference( cTID('null'), ref4 );
    var desc9 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var desc10 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var desc11 = new ActionDescriptor();
    desc11.putDouble( cTID('Cyn '), C );
    desc11.putDouble( cTID('Mgnt'), M );
    desc11.putDouble( cTID('Ylw '), Y );
    desc11.putDouble( cTID('Blck'), K );
    desc10.putObject( cTID('Clr '), cTID('CMYC'), desc11 );
    desc9.putObject( cTID('Type'), sTID('solidColorLayer'), desc10 );
    desc8.putObject( cTID('Usng'), sTID('contentLayer'), desc9 );
    executeAction( cTID('Mk  '), desc8, DialogModes.NO );

  • Can you specify the allowable values for vertical range and offset for the NI 5112 PCI Digitizer?

    The NI 5112 manual indicates that the vertical range can be set from +/- 25mV to +/-25V in 10% steps. Can you explain exactly what this means? (For example, could you give me a series of allowable values.)
    Also, what are the allowable values for voltage offset?
    The reason for my question is: I am specifying the vertical configuration using the niScope_ConfigureVertical() function. The observed raw (8 bit) sampling does not appear to change at all for small changes in voltage range and offset. I would like to know where the hardware breakpoints are, so that I can apply correct scaling from bits to voltage.
    In addition, I have tried to use the niScope_CheckAt
    tributeViReal64() function to "check" a value before applying it to NISCOPE_ATTR_VERTICAL_RANGE or NISCOPE_ATTR_VERTICAL_OFFSET, but it fails in the linking step in Microsoft Dev. Studio. (niScope.lib & niscope_32.lib do not seem to contain any of the CheckAttribute functions that are listed in the NI-Scope function reference.)
    Thank you for your response.

    There is a nice reference at:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/38f18d418e2433ed8625690e006bbe94?OpenDocument
    which explains that allowable voltage ranges can be expressed by the equation:
    next_range_value = range_value * 1.1 starting at +/- 25 mV.
    When a range is specified that does not match this series, the device driver rounds UP to the next value.

  • Can you match the workspace color from Bridge CS4 to Photoshop CS4?

    When working between Bridge and Photoshop it becomes frustrating trying to switch between my setting in Bridge which are a darker gray to that in Photoshop which is the standard ligher gray. I notice CS6 has a darker interface but I am not upgrading just for that reason.
    Any suggestions?

    Photoshop cs4 has a fixed workspace color and can't be user changed, as far as i know.
    Photoshop cs6 was the first version to offer options for the UI interface color in photoshop itself.
