Forcing "Related topics" links to use the poup menu

Post by simon_b »

Hi all,

I've successfully imported a RoboHelp project into Flare.

However, all my related topics are now displayed in 'Topics Found' dialogs, rather than in the neater 'popup menu' format.

In RoboHelp I forced them to display in the popup menu by hacking the hhp file. Does anyone know how I do the same in Flare?

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon,

Your post is quite old so you may have fixed this, but if not this might help...

I have the same problem (also after importing from RH). In my case, if I choose UK English in my project properties I get the unwanted dialog box. If I choose US English I get the popup. No idea why, and I haven't experimented with other languages.

I rememeber having the same problem with ForeHelp some years ago, and this was the only way I could find to fix it.
