Subject:Robohelp - Context sensitive help question From:"Evan Martin" <evan -dot- martin -at- garvin-allen -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 24 Jan 2003 14:05:44 -0400
I'm hoping somone can help me with this.
I'm using Robohelp X3 Map IDs to create context sensitive help for our
software. I'm having problems with a certain F1 link not working until
another has been used. For example:
On the Summary Screen of our software have 3 options.
Option 1
Option 2
Option 3
For some strange reason, the F1 help will not work while focused on Option 1
until I use F1 for Option 2 first and then come back to Option 1. It only
happens on Option #1.
Anyone had this sort of problem? I'm not sure if it's a robohelp problem,
or our software.
Thanks,
Evan Martin
