RoboHelp 8 - WebHelp can't edit About box

In the primary layout window for WebHelp in RoboHelp 8, there is a check box for "Add About Box" but there's no button allows you to input information in the "about box".   However, in FlashHelp primary layout set up, there is an Add button next to the "Add About Box" check box that provides access to a window where you can input the about information.
Seems like the "Add" button got lost in WebHelp primary layout setup window.

!SSL!>WebHelp_Pro  folder.  I didn't try to change the wording in the file. Here's a copy of my file. However, as I said previously, there was no way that I was able to change window title that's note in red below.

  • "About" Box, Robohelp 8, and Internet Explorer

    I am having an issue with the About box in our custom-built skin and (seemingly) all versions of Internet Explorer.  I have an About box configured that contains information such as our company name, copyrights, and a link to my email for questions.  Since we have several different versions of our online help, we decided to add the current help version to the box.  Unfortunately, one of our employees who uses IE 9 attempted to click on the About box and discovered that it was not there in the navigation bar. We use a graphic as the link, and the graphic was not beside the Search bar as it is in other browsers.   I use Firefox currently, but I know it used to show up in Internet Explorer.  We checked on my version (IE 7), and it was missing from there also.  I checked the Properties screen in WebHelp to ensure that the correct skin was configured and that I had Add About Box checked, and everything seemed to be fine.  The crazy thing is that I know the About box used to show up in IE 6 and when I first got IE 7. We really need to resolve this because most of our clients still have Internet Explorer.  While it is not as critical as some of the other Help, the About box still performs a service and is the most appropriate place to add the current Help version. 
    Has anyone else had this problem with RoboHelp 8's About box and Internet Explorer?  Does anyone know a method for making it show up in Internet Explorer (any version will do)?  When I tested it, I had the pop-up blocker turned off to eliminate that as a cause, but that would not explain the graphic appearing either. 
    Thank you,
    Leigh Steele

    I'm wondering if rather than the IE version, it is more about upgrading to RoboHelp 8. Do you keep copies of the old help outputs in a way that you can tell which version of RoboHelp created them? I'm hoping that you can open a RoboHelp 6 or 7 produced output and see how that works.
    Also you refer to a custom-built skin. Do you mean a supplied skin that you customised or you truly created you own skin somehow? Have you tried using a supplied skin to see if you still have the problem then?

  • Hi. I've changed my hard drive on my macbook pro and wanted to reinstall logic pro but although I took the serial number from the "about" box it rejects it when I try to reinstall. It was an upgrade to Logic 8 originally. What can I do? Urgent!

    Hello. I have installed a new hard drive on my Macbook Pro with OSX Tiger. I tried to reinstall Logic 8 Pro but it refuses the serial number when I try to install it. I took the serial number from the "About" box when Logic was still installed but no good. The software was originally an upgrade, and I don't think I have the disks for the previous version. What do I do? This is important because I only use the computer for music. Thank you.

    There's actually an even simpler solution that doesn't include buying a new version of Logic.  He can use his original version easily.  Of course, that depends if the OP knows how to effectively use his computer though...

  • I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have the same question. It seems that Adobe is almost impossible to contact (I ended up here at the forums to ask the same question).
    I will never buy another Adobe product again if I can get another program to replace it. If this is customer service then it is NON EXISTENT!
    I notice that your question has not been answered and why should you have to get the information from a forum? I know of no other company that makes you do this for simple product information.
    NOT HAPPY with this version of arrogant customer service (nor am I happy about renting Photoshop products into the future - it is just a money grab in my opinion). I will be voting with my feet and going elsewhere in future.

  • After placing a new text box in my document, typing new text, clicking away, then coming back to edit the text, I am unable to get my cursor to reappear within that text box. I can only select the box itself. I cannot select the text. Where is my cursor?

    After placing a new text box in my document, typing new text, clicking away, then coming back to edit the text, I am unable to get my cursor to reappear within that text box. I can only select the box itself. I cannot select the text. Where is my cursor?

    Even simpler than that.
    Clicking once in a text box selects it.
    Clicking once in a selected text box places the insertion point in the box.
    The clicks do not need to be close enough in time to be read as a double click.
    The same behaviour applies to table cells in Pages and in Numbers.

  • My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

    My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

    Hi karenw22462415,
    You'll need to Acrobat to edit a PDF file. If you don't have Acrobat, you're welcome to download a 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

  • Text Box Dashed. Can't edit text. Please Help!

    InDesign CS4
    I made a catalog a couple months ago and when I opened it up to work on it again all my text boxes have a dashed outline when selected. I can select the box, but when I switch to the text tool and click it is unselected and I can't edit the text. When I try to highlight the text the text tool just makes a new text box (with normal outline). I can add new text in new text boxes. All the catalog pages are different files and the problem is the same when opening any page which makes me feel like its some setting in the actual program rather then the files themselves. Nothing is locked as far as I can tell and overriding all master page items doesn't help either. Somebody please help. Thank you!

    Sounds like your text frames are on the master page.

  • We wish to keep a spare computer loaded with all the required editing software ready to swap out if we have a hardware issue, what can we do about licensing, can we hot desk to it?

    We wish to keep a spare computer loaded with all the required editing software ready to swap out if we have a hardware issues. What can we do about licensing, can users hot desk to it? We have about 10 users with various software packages loaded on their current machines. Currently if one goes wrong we have no backup.

    You will need to check the licensing requirements for the various software & operating systems that you use.
    A much simpler way will be to make a clone of each machines hard disk drives on seperate external bootable drives using Carbon Copy Cloner or Superduper. You can then keep a couple of blank machines and boot from the an external drive in an emergency and carry on working. At the end of the work day you can then restore the clone to the internal hard drive of the affected machine, and leave it to run over night to complete the restore.
    This method would probably be the cheapest way to implement a disaster recovery option as you will not need to pay for new licenses or 10 new machines.
    Just make sure that each machine has an external HDD attached and a regular clone being made on a schedule, this way you will always have an up to date clone to work from.
    There are many ways to acheive what you require, NAS etc.

  • Can't edit captions

    I have a form that was created by printing an excel spreadsheet to PDF and then we are editing in Livecycle ES - the form fields have been added.   However, we can't edit the captions for a radio button group and options like insert Text are grayed out in the menu.   Is there just something weird about this because of the way it was created??

    Sorry, I did misunderstand the issue.  When you import a PDF (created from Word, Excel or any other application) you are presented with a dialog that gives you two options... "Create an Interactive Form with fixed pages" or "Create an Interactive Form with a flowable layout".  If you select the "fixed pages" option, a form is created where all boilerplate is representated as an image and cannot be edited, furthermore, only "interactive" form objects can be added to the form, such as fields, radio buttons, list boxes etc.  As you have noticed, the "non-interactive" objects such as "static text", and "rectangles"are disabled.  In addition, the non-interactive properties such as captions (static text) are also diabled.  LC Designer is bahaving as intended, it is meant to give the form designer a very accurate copy of the original document layout.
    If you import a PDF and select the "Create an Interactive Form with a flowable layout", the "boilerplate" from the original PDF is editable, and the non-interactive form ojects and obect properties (captions etc.) will be available.
    Regards

  • How can I edit a post I've already posted?

    I saw a button that said "Edit this post." I clicked it and got a notice that I must log in before editing my post. I was already logged in. Completed the longin info again, but still kept getting the message that I had to log in first. Closed Safari, reopened, re-logged in, went to the post, and then the button for editing the post was gone.
    I see some discussion in this forum, but have not found a post telling exactly how to make the edit function work. Nor do I get results searching on "edit" or "edit post" or "edit forum post."
    Nor do I find any mention of this in the Help section.
    I did see one place where a person was asking a host to edit one of his posts. This could imply we can't edit our own posts; but then what is the edit button on a posted post for? In any case, it seems there should be some info about this somewhere, and perhaps the dialog box could be more explanitory (as in saying we must log in, when we already are).
    Thank you.
    I WAS able to edit THIS message. This time the Edit button worked. Maybe the other time was a fluke, or maybe there is a time limit on hitting the Edit button. But again, why was that guy asking a host to do his editing. Any clarification would be helpful. Alas, I now see only two choices: a button to Discard and Cancel, and a button to Edit Message. I'll go with the latter and see if it means "Post."

    Hi ChicagoLarry!
    If the 15 minute, Edit time span has elapsed, but you still have the post that you want to edit, open in a browser window, the  Edit icon, will still be evident.
    But as you have discovered, if you click on it, you will be asked to login, which doesn't really make any sense.
    Ideally, the message would be more like "You're allotted time to edit this post has expired."
    I've made a suggestion to the Hosts.
    Also, each time you edit an entry, the edit time is extended.
    For example, if you edit a post 10 minutes after the initial time of posting, you will then have another 15 minutes, in which to edit again.
    Each subsequent edit, adds another 15 minutes.
    The discretionary editing of posts, by the Hosts, is usually done only for violations of the TOU, posted personal info, serial numbers, Email addresses, posting of commercial Websites, etc., not for misspellings, punctuation, or other minor posting errors.

  • Can't edit in Design View

    When I click Live View, I can see my page, and it shows up in a browser just fine, but I can't edit in that mode.  However, when I click Live View again, I just get a gray, blank page with the tag, meta, sytle, script, and link icons at the top left.  I've been tinkering with it for the last two hours, and nothing I try is getting the page to appear in Design, or Split view.  It's driving me nuts. Any suggestions?   

    Here's the code. 
    <!--
    body  
    /* ~~ Element/tag selectors ~~ */
    ul, ol, dl { /* Due to variations between browsers, it's best practices to zero padding and margin on lists. For consistency, you can either specify the amounts you want here, or on the list items (LI, DT, DD) they contain.

         padding-right: 15px;
         padding-left: 15px; /* adding the padding to the sides of the elements within the divs, instead of the divs themselves, gets rid of any box model math. A nested div with side padding can also be used as an alternate method. */
    a img { /* this selector removes the default blue border displayed in some browsers around an image when it is surrounded by a link */
         border: none;

         text-decoration: none;
    /* ~~ this container surrounds all other divs giving them their percentage-based width ~~ */
    .container  
    /* ~the header is not given a width. It will extend the full width of your layout. It contains an image placeholder that should be replaced with your own linked logo~ */

    /* ~~ This is the layout information. ~~  
    1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the div. The elements within this div have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the total width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design. 
    .content  
    /* ~~ This grouped selector gives the lists in the .content area space ~~ */
    .content ul, .content ol

    Be aware that the CSS for these layouts is heavily commented. If you do most of your work in Design view, have a peek at the code to get tips on working with the CSS for the liquid layouts. You can remove these comments before you launch your site. To learn more about the techniques used in these CSS Layouts, read this article at Adobe's Developer Center - http://www.adobe.com/go/adc_css_layouts .</p>
        Layout
        Since this is a one-column layout, the .content is not floated.
        Logo Replacement
        An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo.
    Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes.
    To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)
