Custom WebHelp skin

I want to disappear the SearchInput Textbox and add My LOGO on the right of the toolbar in RoboHelp HTML 8.0.
But do not find a way to solve it, any suggestions?

Hi there
For inserting your own logo, click View > Pods > Project Set-up and edit the skin. You are interested in the About item.
After you add the logo, you turn the Search Input field off and on by editing the Single Source Layout properties.
Cheers... Rick

Custom RH9 WebHelp skin: Problem opening PDF file from custom button

Hi, I've been troubleshooting and checking forums trying to figure out how to get a PDF file to open from a custom button on my WebHelp skin. It worked for me once upon a time, but I changed something in the document and tried to upload the new version and it has errored out ever since.
I want to have the ability to open the PDF in a new window from the custom button (called 'Printable PDF' on my skin), so I am using the following custom JavaScript in the 'Click On' field of the the custom button's components: window.open('print_test.pdf','printWindow','menubar=0,resizable=0,width=900,height=500,scr ollbars=1'); I know the script is good because I have the same script for the Support custom button and it works great. The only difference between those scripts is the Support script calls an .html file instead of a PDF and the window names says 'supportWindow' instead of 'printWindow'.
I've tried deleting and recreating the custom button, changing the JavaScript with a developer's help, generating the help on another machine thinking it was a glitch with my browser (using IE8) or RoboHelp license, and combing the help files numerous times. I've also ensured that the PDF file is stored in the skin and project folders along with the other project files/folders. I've used previous versions of RoboHelp and had no problems attaching a Word document and PDF, so I'm wondering if this is a bug in RH9?? Especially since it worked for me initially. Any assistance and/or fresh ideas are welcomed! Thank you!

Hello again
Happy I was able to help.
MOTW is only present and affects things when you are running content off your local C drive. It's value is in preventing that Yellow Information Bar and all that from appearing when you are using IE. Once you publish content to a server and access it that way you are in a different security zone and MOTW has no influence either way. So there would be no adantage to enabling it before publishing to a server. The only reason you might want to consider enabling it would be if you were copying the WebHelp to everyone's hard drive and having them run it from their hard drives.
Make sense?
Hope so... Rick

Error while deploying, Custom Style Skin in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.7

Hi,
I have deployed Custom Style Skin in OBIEE 11.1.1.5 successfuly (with the help of http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/12/oracle-bi-ee-11g-styles-skins-custom-xml-messages/ ).
Now when we're moving RPD, Catalog & Custom Style Skin from OBIEE 11.1.1.5 to OBIEE 11.1.1.6.7, I could deploy RPD & Catalog but am not able to deploy Custom Style & Skin Folders.
If you are aware of the process of deploying Custom Style & Skins (as mentioned in the link above), it requies:
1. Custom Style & Skins folder to be Deploy using Weblogic Console.
2. Making necessary changes in instanceconfig.xml (to point to the deployed folder) ---- this is where it's failing.
When I do add necessary tags ( <URL> & <UI>) in instanceconfig.xml and restart Services. Presentation Services dosen't come up. Error message that is in log file is:
In element URL: Can not have element children within a simple content.
unknown element 'UI'
Element 'UI' is not valid for content model : 'All(URL, SocketTimeoutSec,FileSizeMB)'
Any pointers?
Regards,
Jitendra

Looking for a specific webhelp skin

I noticed a webhelp skin that I would like to use for my robohelp project's output, but I can't seem to find it in the options provided in the following adobe page:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?s=5&from=1&o=desc&cat=316&scat=317&l=-1&ev ent=productHome&exc=11
I captured a pic of the skin I am looking for and it is attached to this post. I am hoping someone can take a quick look and identify the name of the skin template for me.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanx,
Bill

Hi all
For anyone interessted I've put together a CHM file so one may easily see each Skin appearance before having to download it to see what it looks like.
They used to have the images up there for you to see. Not sure why they aren't there any longer.
I'll be happy to provide the CHM if you wish. Just shoot me a private message to rstone75 (at) kc (dot) rr (dot) com. I'll send you a download link.

Custom button skin with scaleGrid 9 slice image does not appear in Design Mode

So in a custom button skin I have a nine sliced image, and then throw that onto an MXML page. In design view, I cannot get the component to show the image that I've thrown on it. Unless I do a hack on the MXML page by adding the image in it's scaleGrid form to the page somewhere. Then it seems to act as like a preloader for the image so it actually displays. But I don't want to do this hack on every page that uses this component. Is there a work around?
Here's the button skin:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Skin xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                    xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                    width.disabled="296" height.disabled="73">

<fx:Metadata>
                    [HostComponent("spark.components.Button")]
                    [Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)]
</fx:Metadata>

<s:states>
                    <s:State name="disabled" />
                    <s:State name="down" />
                    <s:State name="over" />
                    <s:State name="up" />
</s:states>
          <s:Group width="100%" height="100%" >
<s:Image width="100%" height="100%" smooth="true" source="@Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)"/>
</s:Group>

          <s:Label id="labelDisplay" left="10" right="10" top="2" bottom="2" horizontalCenter="0"
                               maxDisplayedLines="1" textAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle" verticalCenter="1"
                               color="#FFFFFF" >
<s:filters>
                              <s:DropShadowFilter distance="0" angle="90" color="0x000000" alpha="1" blurX="2" blurY="2" strength="16" quality="3" />
</s:filters>
</s:Label>
</s:Skin>
And then I throw that button into an MXML page. The image doesn't show up in design view.
<s:Button x="330" y="94" width="134" height="57" label="Button" skinClass="features.shared.NineSliceButtonSkin" />
This hack, fixes the button! And all other buttons that use that skin.
<s:Image width="100%" height="100%" smooth="true" source="@Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)"/>
<s:Button x="330" y="94" width="134" height="57" label="Button" skinClass="features.shared.NineSliceButtonSkin" />

Looking for an answer too!

Edit WebHelp Skin Buttons?

On the Toolbar tab in the WebHelp Skin Editor, can the
default buttons (Contents, Index, etc.) in The Main and Nav Bar
lists be rearranged or deleted? When I select one of these buttons,
the delete button ( - minus button) is disabled. And there seems to
be no way to reorder them.

Hi dchell and welcome to our community
When you generate WebHelp in the following manner:
Locate the Single Source Layouts area and double-click the
WebHelp layout
You have options in the ensuing dialogs that allow you to
choose whether the TOC/Index/Search/Glossary buttons appear and in
which order.
Cheers... Rick

Refernce to external image in WebHelp skin

Hi,
Using RH 8.0.2.208. Need to add a reference to an external .gif file in WebHelp skin such that a logo image, in top right of help viewer, can be changed post generation and deployment (across multiple, merged projects).
Any help greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Graham.

Hi,
Is it in CRM2007 or CRM7.0
CRM7.0 provides transaction CRMC_SKIN_WB where you can select the skin, upload images and adjust stylesheet.
If it's the logo to be changed, goto stylesheet thtmlb_stand.css and find the appropriate stylesheet entity
Logo is located in styling/lshape/logo.png
In CRM2007 it's slightly different tool to handle the skins.

RH7 - Custom WebHelp Pro skin custom "Print" button does NOT display in version published to RH Server 8

I customized a WebHelp Pro skin using the Omega skin as the basis. Everything works fine except the Print button, which I added using the same Action as shown in the BeautifulVista skin's Print button.
Local Version (C: drive)
When I generate my help project and view it locally from my C: drive after I accept the warning about viewing locally, I see the Print button.
However, it does NOT work. I've attached a graphic that shows the local version and the skin dialog where I set up the action for the Print button.
RH Server 8 version
When I view the same project after I publish it to the server, the Print button does NOT display.
QUESTIONS ARE:
How do I get the Print button to function properly (active printer dialog)?
If it can't work until it is published that fine but then how do I get it display when I view from server?

Hi there
Have you tried editing your Window Definition?

Custom Buttons in WebHelp Skin

Hi all,
I am trying to add a button to my WebHelp version of my
project to enable readers to print the current topic. In my skin
editor, I managed to add a custom button, Print, with an image
entered window.print() in the JavaScript onClick field that is
provided (this is a standard JS call that prints the window). After
updating the view in the Skin Editor, the button is displayed, but
after re-generating the WebHelp layout, I can't see my new button.
I thought maybe the Advanced tab's Dependancies list might have
something to do with it, but I am not sure what it is for exactly.
Is there a trick to adding custom buttons to skins to get them to
display in the generated format?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts,
darkagn

Hi Captiv8r and thankyou for the super-fast response :)
Your reply allowed me to add the custom button to my skin.
However, the window.print() function only prints the area
with the buttons, not the topic itself. So I thought I'd re-post
and explain how I actually solved the problem of printing topics in
WebHelp in case anyone else needed the same info.
I ended up adding a button to the template that all of my
topics are derived from, in the footer so that the button remained
below the topic itself. I had to add the button in the HTML editor
with the following code:
<form style="text-align: right; padding-right: 10px;">
<input id=printbutton type=button onClick="window.print()"
value="Print Topic" style="width: 90px;">
</form>
Now, because the Print button appears in the same area of the
screen as the topic itself, the call to window.print() prints
everything in that frame (which unfortunately includes the button
itself, but this is a small price to pay to be able to print topics
from WebHelp).
Anyway, I hope this solution helps someone out
there...

Webhelp skin customization

Hi,
I've been trying to get some good information on how to customize skins for WebHelp in RoboHelp HTML 8, but I haven't been very successfull. I get the basics you see in the Skin editor, but my bosses would like to customize the look so it better matches our software. I have two main issues:
Is there a way for me to display the company logo on the left side inthe header, rather than in the About Box on the right side?I was thinking I could just add it as another button, but you can't seem to customize the order of the buttons, thus I can't get it on the left.
Is there a way for me to move the main navigation over?Rather than having it all line up on the left, I'd like it to be more centered, since I'll be making custom tab images to mimic tabs.
Any information, resources, etc. you can offer would be a big help. I know from reading the forums that several users have done some extensive customization, I'd love to know how.
Thanks!

Problem with css reload (custom adf skin)

I have defined a custom skin but changes in the css does not immediately show in the page. I have not figured out what triggers a rreload of the css. When I delete the generated css from the embedded OC4J a new one i immediately created but with the old values.

Hello,
This depends on the version of ADF your using.
If its 10G, as far as I know, changes will only get picked up after a redeploy and even then you need to force the browser to re download the css (using a force refresh, shift + F5 or the refresh key normally)
If its 11G, the redeploy should not be needed as long as you force a browser refresh.
As long as the previously mentioned context parameter is present:
<context-param>
    <description>If this parameter is true, there will be an automatic check of the modification date of your JSPs, and saved state will be discarded when JSP's change. It will also automatically check if your skinning css files have changed without you having to restart the server. This makes development easier, but adds overhead. For this reason this parameter should be set to false when your application is deployed.</description>
    <param-name>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.CHECK_FILE_MODIFICATION</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>-Anton

Customizing RoboHelp Skins

I'm running into a problem with the customization of my skin for RoboHelp I've created all of my own custom tabs and have linked them to their own separate page. However, I'm limited to the number of tabs that I can have. Is there a set amount of tabs that you can display? Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there a work around?
Thanks

Hi there
I've seen it happen before. While there is no specified limitation, obviously there HAS to be some limitation.
Question here, are you using the "Search Input Field in Toolbar" option? If so, try disabling that and see if you can get more tabs to show. I seem to recall that the last time this issue cropped up on the forums (admittedly quite a while back) that we found in that particular case there was a limit of 13 tabs for the individual posting.
