TOC problem with RH8

I have a problem with RH8 and the TOC.
1.) Once I generate or publish the project the back and forward buttons above the TOC flash on and off. This is very annoying to the eyes.
How can this be turned off? I don’t want to turn the buttons off I just want the flashing o and off to stop. I want the buttons to still work.
2.) The highlight for the pages in the TOC jumps back and forward highlighting pages I have been to. If the TOC is long and it jumps back to a page at the top of the TOC and I was at the bottom I lose my place of what page I was looking at or which page I going to go to next.
Again how can this be turned off?
There are other problems with RH 8 but that’s for another post.
I work with RH8 every day.

2.) The highlight for the pages in the TOC jumps back and forward highlighting pages I have been to. If the TOC is long and it jumps back to a page at the top of the TOC and I was at the bottom I lose my place of what page I was looking at or which page I going to go to next.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thank you

ToC problem with hanging side head paragraphs

I've created a template in CS4 ID that uses hanging side heads that look like those shown here:
http://tinyurl.com/bdrnxq
The hanging side heads were created using instructions included in the linked example.
Everything is working except the ToC. When I generate one, the hanging side heads are grouped together at the top of the items listed on a page, no matter where they really are located on that page. For example, if the following sections were on page 5 in the book:
1st level section 1......pg 5
1st level section 2......pg 5
1st level section 3......pg 5
2nd level hanging side head section 3.1.....pg 5
1st level section 4......pg 5
Are showing up in the TOC as:
2nd level hanging side head section 3.1......pg 5
1st level section 1......pg 5
1st level section 2......pg 5
1st level section 3......pg 5
1st level section 4......pg 5
Is there a setting that will fix this problem, or a workaround? I'm bummed that this isn't working properly in InDesign.

Hello Jeurgen
I don't think that it is possible to do what you want i.e. independently control where Pages breaks the heading in the TOC. However, you will notice that you get slightly nearer what you want if you align the text of the TOC to the left instead of justifying it.
Annoying I know...

Problem with full-text search in RH8

Hi All,
I've just upgraded from RH6 to RH8 (laptop running Windows XP SP3; RH6 still present on the computer but the RH8 setup program did not seem to have a problem with that: identified an earlier version was present, asked for its serial number, and then proceeded).
RH8 is working just fine, except for one thing: in the WebHelp output I generate, the Search tab displays: "Error: Failed to initialize database".
As a matter of fact, the generation details in RH8 output view state:
Processing Full-text-search data...
Finished processing Full-Text-Search data in 0 sec(s)
This is the case for legacy projects that RH8 upgraded from RH6, but also when I create a project from scratch in RH8.
Now, to add to my confusion, before buying RH8, I had downloaded RH8 trial version and installed it on a spare computer (so it would not interfere with my RH6 installation and projects). The tests with this version were OK (hence the decision to buy the upgrade), and guess what: there was no problem whatsoever with full-text search, neither on legacy projects nor on new projects.
So before I go into the pains of uninstalling / reinstalling (hello registry, it's me again, trying to clean things up ;-), I'd like to know if anyone has any idea why this is happening.
Just to be clear: The RH8 version I bought and installed was a new download, distinct from the initial trial download.
The 3 differences between the trial version and the current working version are:
Trial was on a Vista computer (working version is on XP SP3)
Trial did not have RH6 present on the computer
Trial was version 8.0.0.203, whereas the working version is 8.0.2.208 (immediately after it was installed, RH prompted me to install the updates)
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Hi All,
Just for the record, IT people here were eventually able to have RH8 full-text search feature working on my laptop by:
1/ Installing an XP virtual machine from scratch, and then installing RH8 on it (we created a small project and generated the webhelp output, just to make sure the search feature did work in that environment).
2/ Using a software virtualization application to capture that RH8 install and deploy it on my laptop.
The problem is not solved, because we still don't know what caused it (conflicting DLLs?), but it looks like we have a workaround - although certainly not a quick and easy one ;-)

Weird problem with ToC/Story Editor

Hi all,
I write the documentation for a software package. Recently the package has had two new add-ons that require their own manuals, so I reused my original doc and cleared it out to use for the new packages. All good so far until I want to do the ToC. In the original docs, each bit is split into its own story editor, but with the new manuals everything is all in one story and I think that is causing problems with the ToC because sometimes I'll get sections with nothing in them while other Sections have too many subsections. I've been through and checked my styles, but the only way around it right now is to view the ToC in the Story Editor and drag/drop the subsections to the right places. Right now these new manuals are not even 30 pages each, with four or five sections but this is not a tenable situation. I use InDesign 5.5 under Windows. Anyone got any idea? Obviously more detail can be provided.
Thanks in advance,
B

It looks the same and all the text is still in one Story. Can I split stories?

Evaluation RH8, problem with links to files on network

Hello,
We are evaluating RH8, and I am trying to build to AIR with Robohelp and all my links pointing to either Word or PDF files on network drives won't work when I create the AIR standalone, I click them and nothing happens. If I compile them in HTML or Winhelp, the links are working.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong ? or does the AIR output won't support links to files on network shares ?
I've spent quite some hours trying to figure it out on my own, but I'm really not used with RH8, even though I'm quite fluent in many other Adobe programs such as Photoshop and Dreamweaver.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Chris

OK I've tried again with limited success. Links to \\Server_Name\Share_Name won't work (at least for me). Links to mapped network drives as you suggested, work differently, meaning at least I get an error message (Error #2044: Unhandled error:. text=PDFError). In this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/110019) I see reinstalling the Adobe Reader might do the trick, so it's what I will do next.
The main links to documents will be on a sharepoint server, so they will be http:// links and it should work just fine.
Thanks for your help,
Chris

Problem with ScrollPane and JFrame Size

The code is workin but after change the size of frame it works CORRECTLY.Please help me why this frame is small an scrollpane doesn't show at the beginning.

Thank you for your help,please answer me....

I'm not going to even attempt to resolve the problem posted. There are other problems with your code that should take priority.
-- class names by convention start with a capital letter.
-- don't use the name of a common class from the standard API for your custom class, not even with a difference of case. It'll come back to bite you.
-- don't mix awt and Swing components in the same GUI. Change your class that extends Canvas to extend JPanel instead, and override paintComponent(...) instead of paint(...).
-- launch your GUI on the EDT by wrapping it in a SwingUtilities.invokeLater or EventQueue.invokeLater.
-- calling setSize(...) followed by pack() is meaningless. Use one or the other.
-- That's not the correct way to display a component in a scroll pane.
Ah, well, and the problem is that when you call pack(), it retrieves the preferredSize of the components in the JFrame, and you haven't set a preferredSize for the scroll pane.
Please, for your own good, take a break from whatever it is you're working on and go through The Java™ Tutorials: [Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/TOC.html]

Span columns problem with Table of Contents order

Hello,
I'm having a strange issue with headings that span columns and Table of contents order. My document has a heading paragraph in a coloured box, which is then inserted in-line into a 2-column text box. The paragraph style for the box (set to in-line) is set to span all columns, so that the 2-columned text doesn't get messed up.
When I create a table of contents, the Heading style that is inside the coloured box is being picked up fine, but even though it is inserted before the headings below it, it is showing up after the level 2 headings, instead of before.
I have confirmed that the insertion of the blue bar is before the text below it, as when I remove the span columns option, the TOC works as it is supposed to. Is this a bug?

Hi there, thanks for the reply.
The only way I could move the inline box to the left was to make a custom anchor and change the X value, this did not affect the TOC unfortunately. I also checked the location of the invisible marker indicating the location of the inline text box, and it is definitely before the heading that follows. I confirmed this by removing the span columns option for that paragraph, and the TOC displayed properly after doing that, meaning there is likely some problem with the span columns option not properly recognizing the order of content.
Regards,

Problems with Long Interactive PDFs with Extensive Interactivity via Buttons and Hyperlinks

I have inherited a project which requires the creation of large interactive pdfs with lots of buttons and hyperlinks. I am having continuing problems with buttons not working and long periods of wasted time as attempted exports fail.
Background:
The largest books range from 264 MB to 411 MB – (764 to 1024 pages). Per book, the maximum number of buttons on each page is 16, linking separate files (subsections) in the book via text anchors. The buttons are created using Master Pages which are set for each file (subsection) in the book. 50% to 60% of the pages in each file (subsection) will also be referenced as 2 hyperlinks. One is the source page hyperlink on each workflow and the second is a listing on the source page as a possible navigation path. I have created hyperlink destinations for each page which is used to generate the source and navigation hyperlinks. With 2 hyperlinks representing 50%-60% of the pages - that means the largest book contains a maximum of 1200 hyperlinks. Each file (subsection) also has it’s own separate TOC and the bookmarks that are created (optionally) during the TOC creation process.   As currenlty formatted, the book is primarily images of workflows which mean 50%-60% of the pages contain pdf images.
Several questions:
1. How do I get my buttons to work consistently? There is nothing worse than working hard and then ending up with faulty product. I have been thinking about combining all the files into 1 document per book. Then I could change the buttons to objects, add a hyperlink over each one and set them for a specific hyperlink destination. Can I do that if the buttons are on Master Pages? Can InDesign handle a document with 1024 pages?    I can't fix the problems in Acrobat later because it would mean 1024 fixes for just 1 button correction.
2. How do I stop InDesign from freezing when exporting these large pdfs? It seems to wait until the final steps to crash which sometimes means a 4-6 hour waste of time per export.
3. Are we making a mistake using pdfs as our workflow images? I'm not pleased with the quality of the images we have and wonder if we switched to another image format if this would improve the results.   Would it be worth the effort and relinking? I have been reading different information on what the preferred source image format is for InDesign. One article I found yesterday says using pdf images is a problem. Another site said the Photoshop, TIF and JPG are preferred but PDFs were also acceptable.
4. Do I need to propose scrapping InDesign as the source of the project? If so, what application can better meet my needs?

Those are the limitations you have to put up with.
Apple doesn't follow the PDF spec. It chooses which PDF features it will support.
As to the version number (v5 or v6 or the new multimedia features in v9), there is different support in different versions of Reader/Acrobat as the product has developed. You just need to post a message to downloaders that they need to view the file in Adobe Reader version X or above to get the best experience.
Other industry standards face the same problem: How can you add new feature like multimedia? You can't always be backwards compatible.

Problems with RH 9, CBT, and Printed Documentation

When I upgrade an x5 project in the new RH9, all appears to go fine until I try to generate the Printed Documentation. I was disappointed that the printed documentation STILL requires so much cleanup. Text tagged with the Online condition sometimes displays on some topics, even when Online is excluded from the output. Also, some of the cleanup issues surrounding headings and index entries are still necessary.
The four biggest issues are:
1) If a "book" TOC heading also has content (a topic associated with it), a double-heading appears in the printed output. You have to manually remove all these extra headings in the cleanup process.
2) All index entries appear in the paragraph BEFORE the actual heading they mark, instead of after the heading, resulting in the Index not being correct (if a heading appears at the top of the page, the Index points to the previous page where the index entry resides, instead of the correct page). I have to manually go through the entire document and move each index entry to the paragraph AFTER the heading it marks.
3) Robohelp ignores the exclusion of Online conditions on some random topics. There is a workaround to "trick" Robohelp, but it takes *a lot* of time to do. To "trick" Robohelp, I had to generate a printed manual and make a list of all topics that "slipped" through. And, then edit each topic where the online condition was ignored, by adding an extra, empty paragraph to the end of each topic that had:
·         a single paragraph of text (aside from header and footer info)
·         ends with bulleted list (and no extra paragraph marker following)
·         ends with a table (and no extra paragraph marker following)
·         ends with a figure (and no extra paragraph marker following)
·         ends with see also\How do I\misc button text (and no extra paragraph marker before the seealso/how do I listings)
4) I noticed that when I opened a topic for the first time in Robohelp, the Online condition sometimes gets applied to incorrectly tagged text (it wasn't tagged this way in the x5 content). This requires me opening each topic in the upgraded project, and checking each topic to make sure the online condition is applied correctly in each one (a very tedious process, especiallly if you have a doc set of over 1 mil words!).
Expected results:
Printed doc does not contain double headings. Index entries appear after headings. Conditional text behaves as it is supposed to behave (and if you tell Robohelp to exclude the ONLINE condition, it does it for ALL topics).
Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations for this? Yes, I have the latest build. We held off on upgrading to previous releases of Robohelp because of the Printed Manual problem too (it seems like each version created more clean up work). :-( I logged a bug on the Adobe forum.Any and all suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

Mr. Grainge,
Thank you so much for your thoughtful answers back! I appreciate you taking time out to write such a thorough reply. I hope Adobe appreciates you! You're number one in follow ups!
Unfortunately, your answers did not solve my problems. But, you did give me some ideas on where the problems could be occurring. So, thank you!! Before I begin: In answer to your question, yes I *am* using the supplied Style Mapping template (I never had luck with the custom one myself). Also, I am going to hold off on replying to 1) and 2), but I'd like to share my answer on 3) and 4), which is really just what I need to get Printed Documentation working in Robohelp 9 the same way it worked in x5.
A little history: I have a set of about 50 help projects that span many versions of our company's product, and multiple versions of Robohelp (some even go back to the 90s!). They even include some help projects that were originally in Frame/WebWorks but were later ported to Robohelp. There's a lot of history to them.
Investigating the Problem: When I opened an x5 project in RH 9, I noticed that some of the timestamps on the .htm files didn't match the rest of the files. It turned out, that these very same files that were the ones giving me problems with the Conditional text! That's when your thoughts about the mapping came to mind...As I said, my project spanned mutiple versions of Robohelp. I wondered if some of the coding on the .htm page was being parsed incorrectly on upgrade, and if if that was the reason why RH couldn't update the pages (which explain the unchanged timestamps). In other words, I wondered if Robohelp was mapping the styles correctly on import. So, I compared these unupgraded .htm files with ones that did upgrade, to see if there was something on the code page that could be causing the problem.
Solution to Fix 3) and 4) above:
I'm going to list out everything that I did below, however, not everything on this list applies to everyone. But, hopefully it will help you, if you ever run into this scenario yourself, and it might give you some ideas on how to get your HTML files working. So, before upgrading, here is what I did:
I opened my old CSS in a text editor and removed all the Robohelp autogenerated comments.
In Homesite, I did a bunch of Search and Replaces on a copy of the older x5 project. I looked for code that may have been generated in an earlier version of RH,and for unusual structures in the meta and style declaration area that could be causing conflicts. Here is a list of my search and replaces below:

After I did these all these search and replaces in the copy of the x5 version of the project, I opened the project again in RH 9 and upgraded it. After the upgrade, I checked the timestamps on the .htm files to make sure they all changed. They did! It worked! Everything upgraded properly this time... I tested the Printed Manual output and no conditional text slipped through this time. Yay!
In Summary:
This is what I learned if you are having problems with Conditional text and Printed Manuals in an upgraded RH project:
Always make backups of your older projects before you upgrade anything. I know this is elementary, but I thought it was worth reminding.
Check the timestamps of the files after you upgrade the project. If there are a group of files with timestamps that aren't similar to the rest of the files, chances are Robohelp was having trouble converting those files.
Try looking at the HTML code in those files and see if anything looks out of the ordinary. Some examples are above.
If you have already ported the RH project and it's too late to go back, go look at the file timestamps anyhow. For all the older files, try opening each one in Robohelp and add a space or something (to force RH to change it), and save it. I didn't have the time to verify this, but it seemed on most instances: when I forced RH to save the file manually, it updated correctly and the problem with the conditional text went away. (This option takes longer, especially if you have to do each page individually, but it's worth a try, IMHO.)
Aside from the initial Printed Manual woes, which are resolved, the upgrade process from RH 9 really was seamless! Best I have ever seen! Everything just works! Awesome is a word that comes to mind.
Printed Documentation output does work on upgrade, but in my opinion is: it is no better than it was before, in previous versions.
I wish there were more fixes to the Printed Manual output. When you have a product help system that spans multiple versions, contains over 2.5 million words, and 10,000+ topics, having a lot of cleanup on the production end is costly. What use to take a person on my team less than a day to generate 50+ PDFs in FrameMaker, takes 4-5 weeks man-time in RH. I will outline my opinions in my next reply to this thread.
Thanks again, Mr. Grainge!

Problem with RoboHelp 7 and Batch Generate "Printed Documentation"

I have windows XP SP 3,so I test in another computer to generate documentation and I have the same problem. What´s happend ??
Thank you for all.

I too am having this issue with the TOC. Firefox simply

it.

Problem with running rhcl.exe in batch file

Hi,
I'm running Robohelp 8 and trying to use rhcl.exe to generate multiple help projects. I'm having a problem with the folder where the rhcl.exe is generating the web help. It seems to ignore the "-o" switch and gets the generation folder from the project all the time. As you can see from the log file below, the exe appears to pick up the "-o" path (......\Test\Opportunities.htm), but writes the generated files to the path in the project (.....\Opportunities\index.htm).
Anyone else come across this problem?

Problems with Turkish special characters

Hello!
We are producing Oracle Help with WebWorks Publisher 2003 Professional for FrameMaker. There are some problems with the Turkish version of our online help: The Turkish special characters (for example the dotless i) aren´t displayed correctly in the navigation panes TOC and index. They are replaced by other characters (for example by a "y")
Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
Miriam Rassenhofer

Miriam,
What encoding are the TOC and index XML files being generated in? You should use UTF-8 for the minimum of problems. I presume WebWorks has an option for this. Other than that, make sure the top of those XML files has the proper XML declaration with the encoding:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>You may want to try opening the XML files in an XML-aware text editor to ensure they look right there (JDeveloper is one such editor).
If all of that is working, post back and we can talk offline about getting a snippet of one of those XML files for us to look at.

Problems with QCM tables in DB export

Hi gurus, I have a problem with an export that I'm performing, the problem is that the R3SETUP is trying to export a QCM table "QCMT066" but this table doesn't exits in the database.
(EXP) ERROR: DbSlExeRead: rc = 107, table "QCMT066"
(SQL error 942)
error message returned by DbSl:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
The R3 system is a 4.6C and runs over HP-UX 11 64 bits and Oracle 8.1.7
I read and search SAP notes and inside the SAP forums, but I didn't find anything that could help me.
The transaction SM13 says that --> **** No update records found **** when I execute without client, user and date parameters.
The transaction SE11 says that the table in fact doesn't exits in the database, and if I execute a select sentence (SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM DBA_TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME LIKE 'QCM%') I can see that there is no table with this name.
In transaction.
The transaction SE14 > Extras> Invalid temp. table show the text " ... List is empty "
So please, Do you know what I could do to solve my problem?.
Thanks and best regards

Thank you, that is just what I did.
I found this [tread|r3load export error ORA-00942 for table QCMBTXBLOK; where the people talk about .TKS files, but the version that I'm trying to migrate is too old, and the R3LOAD doesn't use TKS files, so I edited every file(.EXT, .STR, .TOC) that contains references to QCM* tables. I deleted every line related with this kind of tables, and finally everything work and the export ended successfully.
Thanks

TOC problems after RH5 - RH7 upgrade

Hello,
I use RoboHTML to create help projects.
After upgrading one with several subprojects from RH5 to RH7
the following problem occurs:
the TOC of the subproject is not incorporated in the main
TOC, instead the name of the subproject is shown. when clicking
this, the subproject is opened in a new tab (tested on Firefix3 and
Opera9.5), virtualy as a separate project.
The same project was previously published with RH5, with the
subprojects correctly linked.
Also, I reveive the attached java error (again not existing
with RH5) when opening the start page. if I substitute the newly
generated WebHelp.jar with the old one (generated by RH5) the error
ceases but the TOC problem persists.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot,
Norbert

I recently tested the 9.0.1 upgrade and the hotfix for 9.0.1, but the problem still exists. However, "ColdFusion Jedi" Raymond Camden came up with a workaround. You can read about it here:
http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2010/9/16/Followup-to-CFGRID-MultiRow-Post
The problem occurred when the Adobe team that released the 9.0.1 upgrade added "multi-row select" functionality to the HTML/AJAX version of CFGRID, but they failed to include the same ID-passing functionality of the previous "single-row select" implementation.
I created a more generic version of Raymond's javascript function which finds the selected row(s). This javascript must reside on every page which contains an HTML cfgrid:
<script type="text/javascript">
function getSelected(gridName,idName) {
    obj = ColdFusion.Grid.getSelectedRows(gridName);
    var selected = "";
    for(var i=0; i<obj.length; i++) {
      if(selected == "") selected = obj[i][idName];
      else selected += "," + obj[i][idName];
    document.getElementById('selectedRowIDs').value = selected;
    return true;
</script>
To force the selected row's ID (or other) field to be passed to to the subsequent page, you must include the following in your CFFORM tag (the field name MUST BE in ALL CAPS):
     onSubmit="return getSelected('gridName','FIELDNAME')"
Example: <cfform name="itemGridForm" action="editItems.cfm" method="post" onSubmit="return getSelected('itemGrid','ITEMID')"...>
You must also include the following hidden field in your cfform which contains the cfgrid:
    
     <cfinput type="hidden" name="selectedRowIDs" id="selectedRowIDs">
On the called page, FORM.selectedRowIDs will contain a list of the selected rows' ID fields (or whichever field you choose when calling the Javascript function).
