Automatic TOC synchronisation

Post by HelenF »

My help project has context-sensitive topics that are included in more than one book in the TOC. My TOC is set to synchronize automatically. When I press F1 on a window, the TOC always expands to highlight the topic in the LAST book that it appears in - but I would like the TOC to expand so that topic is highlighted in the FIRST book that it appears in. Is there a way to control this behaviour? My output format is Webhelp. Thanks.

You can't control that behaviour.
If you include a topic more than once in the TOC, then you'll get this problem (and also problems with breadcrumb paths).

The only workaround is to create a separate file for each time you use the topic in the TOC, and duplicate the content using a snippet file.
