Merging more than two WebHelp outputs?

Post by qtxasjo »

Is it possible to merge WebHelp outputs from more than two projects?

I managed to merge the WebHelp output from one of my subprojects with the WebHelp from my master project without any problems but I can't figure out how/if I can add another subproject as well.

If you merged the first project by inserting a project link in the TOC of the master project, then you can just add more projects in exactly the same way.

Hi Dave,
Yes, I have inserted a project link to my subproject in the TOC of my master project and it works just fine. But I still don't understand how I can add more projects. If I do the same thing again it just replaces my first subproject? Am I missing something embarrasingly obvious? :)

You need to have a separate entry in the TOC for each project link.

Don't edit your existing item, add a new item (e.g. click New item button) and link that to the project.

Okay, that was embassasingly obvious. :D Thanks a lot, Dave!

Is there a trick to stacking merged help systems in your TOC? It does not seem to work.

That is, my TOC looks like this:

Welcome
[Merged Help 1]
- [merged Help 2]
- [merged Help 3]
[Merged Help 4]


Merged Help 2 and 3 are not appearing in the output.


Any help is appreciated!
