create CSH for merged subprojects

Post by NickC »

I need to create CSH for my subprojects. The csh in our software web interface should open topics in several of my subprojects. I currently have a "master" OLH with 15 or so subprojects - all merged TOC, Search and Index work fine. I use webhelp with Flare 3.1.

Is there a way to insert a relative link in the "master" alias file? Can i do without an alias file altogether?

You can paste the subprojects' alias files into the master alias file. You have to add the path to the subprojects' topic (Link="../AutoMerge/subproject folder/Content). This works fine.
But I think it is strange that Flare doesn't do this for us!

Thanks a lot - I'll try this method out - even if copying and pasting is not ideal! It's no doubt already been requested but I'll send in a feature request anyway...
