Hi Uwe and Andras,
I think there is a small misunderstanding. Andreas has a patch to modify
helpcontent2 source file while Uwe is speaking about the StarOffice
Product Patch mechanism.
The hid.lst lists in the helpcontent2 module needs to be updated. The
current hid.lst is created during the build in the instset_native
There may be another reason why the extended tip doesn't show up.
There is actually a flaw in the help compilation process. I will
add a hint to the help authoring guide:
In order to assign an extended tip to a help id, the paragraph with
the extended tip element <ahelp> must follow the help id
definition element <bookmark branch="hid/..."> without any
other Help-ID element in between. IIRC, the "hid" attribute of
the ahelp element is actually not even evaluated by the compiler.
So the way to go would be to add
<bookmark branch="hid/SC:CHECKBOX:RID_SCPAGE_SORT_OPTIONS:BTN_NATURALSORT">
directly before the paragraph containing the
<ahelp
hid="SC:CHECKBOX:RID_SCPAGE_SORT_OPTIONS:BTN_NATURALSORT">
element.
We hope to fix this flaw for OOo 3.
Let me reiterate what Uwe said, we are on the way to have sufficient
documentation out there to allow direct manipulation of the help files,
but we ain't there yet. So you may come across more peculiarities. The
safest way is to submit an issue/rfe with your patch attached and
we will include it to the help.
However, if you still are bold enough to go for it yourself,
please let us[1] know what's missing and what you need to make
help file editing easier.
