Single Source JavaHelp Missing

I've created a project using RoboHelp HTML 7 and have the
WebHelp Single Source output as my primary output. The application
developer wants the JavaHelp output, but I don't have that
available in my Single Source Layout as a choice. It is available
in my RoboHelp Word 7 though.
Any ideas how to add it to RoboHelp HTML? I don't want to
have to copy the project to RoboHelp Word, just to output for
JavaHelp.
Thanks!

Welcome to our community, Cathy
You will need to install the Java Development Kit (I think
that's the name) and you will need to right-click the Single Source
Layouts area and choose to add a new layout. When you add a new
layout, you should see the option for JavaHelp.
I think it's not there by default because so few folks use
it. WebHelp is really a better way to go.
Cheers... Rick

RH9 - Can I restore layouts in "Single Source Layouts" pod from .ssl files?

RH 9 (latest)
Windows 7 x64
Due to some corruption somewhere in our main help project that prevented me from generating layouts using the RoboHelp command line (rhcl.exe), I deleted my .xpj file and .cpd file, and then recreated the .xpj project file from the .hhp file. This is the recommended fix to get things back to normal that I did two years ago when I got this same error. (For info, see Command line generation errors in log. How do I fix this?)
However, as expected, all my single source layouts are now missing from the Single Source Layouts pod. Is there a way to recreate the single source layouts from the .ssl files so they appear back in the pod with their previous settings? Like a way to re-import then into the project? I have 36 individual ssls just for printable output alone that I spent creating all day last Friday (1 per chapter), I really do NOT want to manually recreate them.
A related question is, where does RH store the link between xpj and ssl layouts? Because when I checked the xpj inside Notepad++ prior to deleting it, there weren't any references to the individual single source layout files there; I don't understand how deleting an xpj file removes references to the ssls when the .ssl files obviously still exist in the project folder.

I'm not at a Rh machine to check where the link is stored but this should work.
Move the old layouts from the project.
Recreate layouts with the same character perfect names. Leave default settings.
With Rh closed, open them in a text editor. Do the same with the old files
and copy the content across.
Backups everywhere of course.

Accidentally split 2 events, now "source clip missing" in my project, HELP!

Ok, so I've been working for weeks on a project, and I accidentally split an event into 2 events. Dumb I know, but I was trying to split a single clip. Anyway, it split the event and made 2 new events. I tried to "undo" but for some reason it didn't work. Now alot of the clips say "source clip missing". I looked in the trash and found my missing original event folder, but it's empty cos all the videos are still in the event, but under the 2 new events. I tried to put the folder back into imovie, I re-merged the 2 split events and renamed it the original name (after someone on a forum suggested this) and nothing works. I am freaking out! It is crazy cos all the video is still there (at least I think it is). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!!!

Thank You Sameer. It worked. Now I can close this issue.

Mapping is inserting multiple records from a single source to Dimension.

Hi All,
I am very new to OWB. Please help me out. I've created Dimension with the help of the wizard and then a mapping which consist of single source and single dimension. The mapping is populating nearly 500 times of the actual records. Following are some details to give you a better understanding of mapping: I created a dimension with four levels and two hierarchy. Levels are L1, L2, L3 and L4 and hierarchies are H1-> L1, L2 and L4
and H2-> L3 and L4. L4 is lowest level of hierarchy. L1 and L3 are parent levels in the respective hierarchies. I assigned an attribute of each level as Business identifier that means business identifier attribute is different in each level. In mapping I mapped the parent natural key(Key for parent Level in a hierarchy) as the value which has been mapped for parent level. The result is coming 500 times of the record that exist in source table. I've tried even single common business identifier for each level but again the result is 5 times of the records. Please let me know the solution.
Thanks is advance.
Amit

Hi ,
You may not be having multiple records in your dimension.
To understand better the records insertion, try a snow flake version of the dimension and see how the records are inserted as per the levels in the respective tables.
Thanks

I made a movie in iMovie then deleted the clips in it. I have reimported the clips in an event with the same name as previously and some clips in the movie are still saying source slip missing even though they are there. What can I do?

I made a movie in iMovie then deleted the clips in it. I have reimported the clips in an event with the same name as previously and some clips in the movie are still saying source slip missing even though they are there. Some clips are fine in the movie, but most are just black and when I hover over them, it says source clip missing. How to I fix this? Thank You

I did that too, then I did a migration assistant to a new Mac and ALL of my movies have Source Clip Missing now, even though the original clips are still in the iPhoto Videos. I can stand to re edit one or two projects, but not ALL.

Java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - missing method body

Hi,
I am getting the following error at runtime
java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - missing method body, or declare abstractwhen I try to instantiate a class using reflexion as following:
MyInstance = MyClass.newInstance(); I have tried to find some explanation using Google, but could not find any that fit my case. MyClass's implementation has a public constructor with no parameter. There is no error at compile time when cleaning and building all code.
Anyone has tips about what could cause this error?
Thanks.

Faulty Single Source Layout from RoboHelp X5 for Word

I am running RoboHelp for Word X5.0.1 build 606 and
generating a Single Source Layout that is in Microsoft HTML Help
format. The output for the English version is fine. In the Spanish
version, a list of font names is inserted into pages in the output.
It looks like the pages that are littered with these font names
occur only in those topics that are at the beginning of their
respective Word documents. The text just before
Introducción that follows is an example:
Arial;Symbol;StarBats;Times;Times New Roman CE;Times New
Roman Cyr;Times New Roman Greek;Times New Roman Tur;Times New Roman
(Hebrew);Times New Roman (Arabic);Times New Roman Baltic;Times New
Roman (Vietnamese);Arial CE;Arial Cyr;Arial Greek;Arial Tur;Arial
(Hebrew);Arial (Arabic);Arial Baltic;Arial (Vietnamese);
Introducción
Has anyone seen this before? How can I avoid this?

Hi, Peter,
I think the usual advice, at least for non-western European
languages, is to compile an HTML Help file on a PC whose default
language is set to that of the help file. For example, you should
compile a Japanese help file on either:
A full Japanese Windows PC.
A non-Japanese Windows PC on which you've installed the East
Asian language files and set the language to Japanese via Control
Panel > Regional and Language Options > Advanced.
I don't think it's necessary to go to these lengths for help
files in western European languages.
The compile-time settings of both help file and PC have no
influence over the language in which the text labels of the toolbar
buttons are shown, as this is determined by Windows at run time.
So, a French help file will have French button labels when opened
on a French PC and English labels when opened on an English PC.

Robohelp 9 Compiler/Single Source Layouts are dead

Hi
We are using Robohelp 9 on Windows 7 and after working on the same project for 2 years now, all of a sudden, the project will not close down without crashing it from the Task Manager, and also we select compile HTML file and it just does nothing.
We cannot compile any single source layout. We also cannot create a new single source layout - system just ignores all commands.
We tried deleting part of the project - thinking it was maybe too big, but that is not the case.
We tried copying the project to another computer thinking maybe the installation is corrupt.
We also tried deleting the cpd - no luck.
Can anyone put light on this matter - why do these things always happen just before a deadline?
Thank you
Melanie

First we need to ascertain if this is machine or project specific?
Did the copy work OK on the other machine?
What happens with one of the sample projects on the problem machine? Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

Multiple Destination Workbooks link to single source workbook - data dissappearing

We have a sales reporting system set up with ~30 Destination Workbooks that pull all of their data directly from
a single Source Workbook - using vlookup formulas (with full path name references to the Source Workbook).
When we open two or more of these Destination Workbooks at a time without opening the Source Workbook – or enabling data connections or links – all of the vlookup data disappears from all but the most recently opened Destination Workbooks.
The only work-around we have found for this is to open the Destination Workbooks in separate instances of Excel. This method is not practical for our analytical needs.
Is there any different way to have data visible in more than one Destination Workbook in a single instance of Excel that are vlookup-ing from a single Source besides re-structuring the entire setup?

Hi,
I tested with a simple source Workbook closed from my side, I was able to perform Vlookup from more than 3 destination Workbook without any issues.
To better assisting you on this, I will need some more information:
What is your Excel version, 2013/2010 or others?
How do your Vlookup be used, do you mind sharing me a sample through mail to: [email protected]
Does this working before? If so, what has been changed?
How do users get access to that source file?
Is there firewall settings on the share location of the source file?
Please update me with above information, so I can check further, thank you.

Source clips missing?

so i was going to upload a video to youtube the day after i had deleted a bunch of old files. some of these files contained clips i was using for my video. i turned on my computer and went to upload the video. instead of the upper right hand box of Imovie showing my video it said "SOURCE CLIPS MISSING" in white letters.
Please help me i will be extremely disappointed if all that work was for nothing

You need the source clips if you want to render the movie again.
If you have Shared a copy of the movie somewhere, you could upload that copy to YouTube. Did you share to iTunes, or to the Media Browser, or Export to QuickTime before destroying your video?

Checklist for Single-sourcing

Hi all,
I have a project that is written with RHX5 and delivered as a
CHM.
This project is two years old now, is mine right from the
start and pretty much looks as I wanted it to look like :-)
Now, the bad guys have rebranded the product that this CHM
document,
so I am asked to provide two CHMs, one for each brand, that
differ from each other as follows:
- some keywords (product name, key GUI elements, etc.)
- all Visio drawings (embedded as GIFs)
- all screenshots
- most of the topic names
- some of the topics
The project is about 100 topics long.
Both products are going to evolve similarly, but packed and
shipped differently, hence I will have to deliver the two CHMs.
Is it possible to keep a single source for this project,
or, should I split the project into two RH projects?
Thanks,
Avi

Hi there Avi

How can I use single source images in text?

I'm using RoboHelp HTML 11, and I want to use single source images of icons in text, so that I have the ability to update the source image, as needed, and all instances of the image are updated automatically. The look is as follows:
I've tried snippets, but they force a paragraph return in the text which I don't want.
I tried inserting the source code for an image into a variable, but when I inserted the variable into the text, I got an error message in the text.
Is there a way to use variables to do this or some other method?
Thanks.

HI there
The one possible drawback to this approach would be if the image size changes. You *MAY* find that saving a different sized image and replacing one would result in perhaps needing to visit each instance of the image and right-clicking and choosing "Reset Size".
I'm not sure why your variable failed with the image. Generally, it's simple to insert an image into the variable. I typically start the process by typing something like "XX" as the variable value. Then in the UDV pod, select the XX and replace it with the desired image.
Cheers... Rick

Unable to view Single Source WebHelp properties, how to correct?

I am unable to view my Primary Layout single source webhelp properties in RH9. Several of the single source layout icons have "?" marks on them. How do I correct this? Thanks.

Hi Folks
If you ever noticed, the question mark is more of a standard symbol for "Help". Because RoboHelp is a help authoring tool, many of the icons sport a question mark. As Willam indicated, it doesn't mean that something is amiss, unfinished or undefined. Instead, it is simply the icon that represents the layout.
If you look in your Windows file system at any CHM file (a standard Windows help file) you will notice that it too has a question mark.
And the older WinHelp (.HLP) format (Pre-Windows 95) was a blue circle with a question mark:
