Does anybody know of any disadvantages of not explicitely adding a Topic Title.
I mean, the Topic Title defaults to the heading of the topic and, of course, if you want a different Topic Title then you have to add it.
But if, typically, your Topic Title is the same as the heading of your topic - are there any disadvantages to leaving the Topic Title blank.
For example, I can think of one - there is no entry in the Title column when doing a Find in Files.
But what about output? Are there any potential issues there?

Re: Any disadvantage in not explicitely adding a Topic Title
When webhelp or CHM output is generated from Flare, a <title> tag is created in the output if it doesn't exist in the source, so, no problems!
Personally, I like a title in the source as I use the File List a lot to view/find files. And sometimes I re-use HTML files from Flare in other web projects and I don't want to have to "compile" it first just to add in the title tag (I think it's still a mandatory tag in HTML output).
