WebHelp - TOC Default View

Using Adobe AIR/WebHelp, when my Help application initiallly opens and displays, only the parent-level folder is visible (see attached "TOC-current" image).
Question:
Is there any way to force RoboHelp (or the application) to display with the second tier of folders visible to the user (see attached "TOC-desired" image)?
Cheers,
Michael
P.S. If the legibility of these images is substandard, perhaps I should just attach the files . . .

Hi there
The only way to accomplish this is to configure a page inside the tree as being the default topic. Then configure your Table of Contents so you ensure it syncs to the default topic. When the help loads up, it should sync to the topic and expand the tree.
Cheers... Rick

Possible to Have ToC Default to Show Only Top Level (collapse sublevels)?

Howdy!
I'll bet I'm not the only one wishing for this. Let's say you're using Captivate 4's Table of Contents feature with a longish movie of Cp slides, which is chunked into bite-size sections content-wise. In the ToC, though, you can't mimic that same organization scheme; at least, the learner would first need to collapse all the ToC folders you've created so they see only the top-level listing.
This can be a critical issue: keeping the at-first-glance list in the ToC brief enough to be inviting to learners, yet allowing learners to drive which details are currently visible.
A movie's topical hierarchy could be along these lines, for example ...
Section 1 - National Brands
What are National Brands?
Why Are They Important to Our Business?
Working with Nat. Brands
Practice Your Knowledge
Section 2 - International Brands
What are International Brands?
Why Are They Important to Our Business?
Working with Intl. Brands
Practice Your Knowledge
You'd like to organize the ToC to show only the section titles (1st level) and to suppress the 2nd-level detail (slide titles) until the learner chooses to expand the folder to see those details.
I've tried things like grouping the slides into sections in the Storyboard view and organizing the slides into sections strictly within the ToC -- both to no avail.
Has anyone solved for this need yet?
I'm all ears, and you'd be doing learners of the world a huge favor.
Thanks!

Hi, Jim.
Thanks for being 'on the case' and looking into this so quickly. Your
findings are encouraging, although my user base is generally working with
IE 6 and FP8 or 9.
Since the only thing I may influence is getting IT to help push out FP10,
I'm hoping it's more of a player- than a browser-version issue.
I'll test things out by Monday and let you know the results. Wish me luck!
Dave

Dave,
I just tested this on my local web server and it worked fine. I created a
blank project with 8 slides. Created my TOC with grouping... 2 slides in
each group. I turned on self paced learning. I tried with and without the
widget and it picked up where I left off in either case. See
https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B86WuEq6SVwRNWIwMjhjODctMjE2Yy00MWE2LWI5YzEtMGQxYzNjOWQ0Z mI2&hl=en.
I published using FP10 and IE8 to view. Notice any difference between
your project and this one?
Thanks,

How to change the default view of published iCal's URL

I am publishing an iCal for a nonprofit group and link to the calendar from the group's website. The default URL given (in the send publish email option) leads to the week view of the current week. I would prefer the link to take site visitors to the month view of the calendar. If I go to the month view and copy the URL for it, and use that for the link, I have to change the URL each month, because the URL that comes from the month view will only show the month it was at the time I copied the URL -- it will not change with the new month. Does anyone have any idea of how I can change the URL so that it leads to the month view of whatever the current month is?
I should note that I know how to change the default view in the my browser, but I would rather not have to explain how to do this to all the people viewing the calendar -- just wanting the correct month view to show up when they click the link, without having to change it each month.
I would be so grateful if anyone has some insight on this!
Thanks.

Carlo,
The fact that this question has been left unanswered for over 2 months seems a little negligent on the part of Apple Support.
This Forum is unfortunately not Apple Support. According to Apple:
What is Apple Discussions and how can it help me?  "Apple Discussions is a user-to-user support forum where experts and other Apple product users get together to discuss Apple products. You'll find a wealth of information about your favorite Apple hardware and software products that will help you get the most out of your purchase. You can participate in discussions about various products and topics, find solutions to help you resolve issues, ask questions, get tips and advice, and more.
If you have a technical question about an Apple product, be sure to check out Apple's support resources first by consulting the application Help menu on your computer and visiting our Support site to view articles and more on our product support pages."
In direct response to your questions, I would say that (as observed by the OP) anyone who subscribes to a published calendar can make a change to their desired view using the "Preferences" icon which is displayed underneath the mini-month calendars.
There is no way that I know of to directly or conveniently change the time-range. There may be workarounds, but I could not find a suitable solution for you.
I would recommend that you provide iCal Feedback, if you are interested in informing Apple of your desires.

How to change default view in web plugin?

Anyone know how to set a default view in the Reader plugin in Firefox and/or IE? I'm getting sick of having to manually show the task bar and then un-toggle touch mode to get my scroll bar back every time I open a PDF. Thanks!

Thanks! I turned off Touch mode there (Edit\Preferences\General --> set
Touch Mode to "Never")
Then I poked around more and fixed the default view in
Edit\Preferences\Internet --> unchecked "Display in read mode by default"

Changing the default view for Line Items in an Auction.

Hello All,
We have a version 5 client who is asking for us to change the default view for line items in an auction.
Currently, if you have an auction setup, and you go to the Line Items tab, the default view is the "Basic View". The client would like to change the Default from "basic view" to "price view".
Is there a way to change this default in the system? Can this be configured using query groups? Any information would be helpful.

Hi wood cloud,
This is not possible, bcz there is no VLV for that drop down and we cant set it to the price view.
Thanks,

Changing the Default View

I would like to know if and how when I pop in a USB flash drive or view my photo
s in "Finder" and select "Pictures" from my favorites menu list, how can my defu
lt view show ALL my pictures in the folder? OS X tries to be clever by showing r
ecent pics, last week pics, and last 30 days pics first as the default view. I j
ust want to click on my Pictures folder and see all the pictures in there sorted
by 'name' rather than me having to do it manually every single time. Can I alte
r the system default behavior?

Does that make it the default view everytime or must I do that each and every time I select the Pictures folder?

How can i change the default view of recent calls?

Hi,
A similar question was asked here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3072545?start=0&tstart=0
And was not answered.
The default view of recent calls is missed calls on my current configuration.
Not a long time ago the default was all calls.
I didn't change it and don't know how.
How can i change it back? I really don't see the advantage of the current default, most of the users navigate to all calls every time.
I use iphone 4 and ios 5.1.1
Thanks.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
However, I am on 6.1.4, so perhaps there is a diference in the iOS version. It is also a matter of one tap on the screen, so seriously, is it that big a deal?

ICal default view

How can I change default view back to week view in iCal, as it was before update (as it displays when searching)?

In case anyone else is looking for a solution to this, I'm come up with a temporary hack. It is a shell script that clears out the most recent calendar view, which results in the Calendar app opening to the current day/month. I've setup a crontab job to run the script every 10 minutes. It's not a perfect fix, but it does the job just fine.
The script/terminal command:
/usr/bin/defaults delete com.apple.iCal "CalFirstVisibleDate"
To install a crontab job which runs the script periodically (every ten minutes in this case), insert the following line into your crontab config (run crontab -e from terminal):
*/10 * * * * /usr/bin/iCalDateReset.sh
This assumes that you have installed the script as /usr/bin/iCalDateReset.sh

How can I change iTunes 11 default view?

I really DO NOT LIKE th new iTunes, but I guess I'm stuck with it since I was dumb enough to download it. At least I hope I can change the default view from Albums (totally useless to me) to Songs so I don't have to go through manually changing it each time I open iTunes. I know it can be done in Windows, but how do I do it in Mac? BTW, I'm still using Snow Leopard. Thanks.

First there are no workbooks. All our queries are presented on the portal.
I made the change in the query itself but the default of 'hierarchy nodes' remained. It can be changed to 'single values' at runtime via the context menu, but it's annoying our users to constantly do so.
Second, it makes perfect sense to want to see single values for a characteristic by default and a hierachy optionally. These are customers or sales agents - normally we just want their name- optionally we want to see their organizational structure.This worked fine in 3.x.

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW?

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!

ddotcom,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?
;~)

Is there a way to make List View in the Calendar your default view in iOS7?

I want to be able to have the List View be my default view on my calendar but I can't find a way to do this. Is there something I am missing?

No, it's not possible. However, there are lots of apps available in App Store that will let you do that. Week Call, Fantatical, Cal, are juste a couple.
Best of luck.

How can we show a custom column to all libraries in the default view without creating that for all libraries everytime

Hi,
Any help?
Thanks
srabon

You can use powershell script below which loops through each libraries and sets view.You can modify the script to user it for single library as well.
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction SilentlyContinue
$siteURL = "<YOURSITEURL>"
$site = Get-SPSite($siteURL)
foreach($web in $site.AllWebs) {
foreach($list in $web.Lists) {
if($list.BaseType -eq "DocumentLibrary") {
// the variables `$web` and `$list` already reference the objects you need
//$site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($SiteURL) ;
//$web = $site.OpenWeb($SiteURL);
// new instance of the list is necessary to avoid the error "Collection was modified"
$newList = $web.Lists.item($list.ID);
$viewfields = New-Object System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection
$viewfields.Add("DocIcon")
$viewfields.Add("LinkFilename")
$viewfields.Add("_UIVersionString")
$viewfields.Add("FileSizeDisplay")
$viewfields.Add("Created")
$viewfields.Add("Modified")
$viewfields.Add("Editor")
[void]$newList.Views.Add(<VIEWNAME>, $viewfields, "", 100, $true, $true)
$newList.Update();
// setting the default view
$view=$newList.Views["<VIEWNAME>"]
$view.DefaultView = $true
$view.Update()
$web.Dispose();
$site.Dispose();

How to configure and set a default view for contents of a data set

Here is my scenario:
I have a document library where each item is a "Plan". "Plan" is of a custom content type that inherits from a Document Set content type but has some additional attributes such as Plan Type. Inside each Plan, each item is
a Plan Document which is of custom content type Plan Document which inherits from Document content type but has some additional attributes e.g. Document Status.
So the hierarchy is:
All Plans (document library)
Plan 1 (custom content type that inherits from Document Set but also has a "Plan Type" attribute)
Plan Document (custom content type that inherits from Document but also has a "Document Status" attribute
When I click on the document library, I want to see all the folders (e.g. Plan 1) where one of the columns will be "Plan Type"
When I click on an individual Plan (e.g. Plan 1) I want to see the contents of that custom document set. At this point, since this page shows contents of one document set, I want to see the column "Document Status" but NOT Plan Type since
Plan Type applies to the document set as a whole, not to an individual item in that document set.
However, I don't think I have it set up correctly because right now the "Plan Type" column is visible both on the list of all document sets AND on the page that shows the contents of one document set.
I've found a discussion on this topic here:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/61565/how-can-i-set-a-custom-default-view-for-a-document-set
where one person said "When you click on a Document Set content type in library settings, one of the options is "Document Set settings". The last option in this dialogue allows you to select a defined view on the library that will be used
to show the contents of that Document Set." I don't see that view selection. The last item on the document set settings page is "Update List and Site Content Types". The field before that is for customizing the Welcome page.
However, I don't want to customize the Welcome Page as a whole, I just want to customize the columns that are displayed on the list of content of this document set.
thanks

I finally found the answer:
At the document library level, create a new view to use when displaying the files in the document set
Go to the document library settings
Select your custom content type (in my case it was "Plan")
In the next screen select Document Set settings
Select your newly created view at the Welcome Page View section
Press Ok
Now the default All Documents view will be shown when displaying all the document sets and the newly created view will be displayed when viewing one document set with the files within.

SOLVED: Limit default view with Multiple non-destructive filters mode

This was solved:
I deleted the { subPaths: "word" } within my dataset. The dataset was pulling and displaying the subpath content which I don't need.
==================================================================
Hi,
I’m using the Multiple Filters Mode Sample to filter headlines in my xml file by the keywords associated with them.
My question is, with no filters selected, how do you display only one headline for the default view? So, instead of the <headline> node repeating itself for every keyword within that node, it just displays one headline. I just want to display only one headline instead of repeating the headline based on the amount of keywords associated with it.
If you view the donut example given a donut is displayed for every topping associated with it.
I’m not as experienced with JS but I thought that if I create an array of all the possible keyword combinations and then use an if-then to display just one combination then it might work. The problem is that the amount of keywords will grow with time. I might amass 15-20 keywords in the next month, so an array might not be practical.
Also, my “Remove All Filters” doesn’t work. The debugger is giving me an error that states: ‘documents.forms.0.noneCB’ is null or not an object -This would mean that the checkbox has not been selected is this correct?
I’ve included the code and my xml data below. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
