Subject:numbering online help From:Debi <debi -at- LAHIT -dot- CO -dot- IL> Date:Thu, 20 Aug 1998 10:38:15 +0300
We use heading numbering for orientation in a very large Robohelp project
(over 500 topics in two separate projects which are interconnected). This
allows the user to print chapters with sequentially numbered topics.
1. What value do you feel this may add (or detract)?
2. What other orientation devices for large, complex helps can you
recommend?
3. When we upgrade and create multiple version help systems from our source
help document, we need to manually renumber. Any suggestions on how to
automate this using Robohelp?
