Glossary description width in WebHelp

Post by JudyH »

In the left (navigation) panel of my WebHelp, most settings appear fine -- but, when a glossary term is clicked to show its definition, the definition is much too wide. I believe it is inheriting the standard paragraph width of 800 px that I had set.

I'm thinking that there has to be either another style setting the glossary description follows, or a way to point the glossary description to an alternate paragraph style with a narrower setting -- but I haven't been able to find either. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I found it. Setting the div.GlossaryPageEntry box width value to 200px accomplished what I needed. I'm not sure what setting that value was inheriting, but at least I know where to control it, now, so I'm adding this for the record.

Did you specify a width on the base div tag in the stylesheet?

No; that wasn't changed.
