Hi Sophie,

you can find explanation to download the extension here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Help
and some information to use it here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/HelpContent

I have begun to see into the explanation
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/HelpContent and have faced some
difficulties.

Yes, it needs some improvements.

 This explanation is not full. I was able to understand  where
xmlhelptemplate.ott file is located in fact. But I had no idea where I am
supposed to find maintransform.xml and allfiles.tree files.

I'm not sure, but I think that there exists no current version of the file allfiles.tree, but only the old one, generated for OpenOffice.org. You find this old one attached to https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=56321. That file was surely generated be a script in times of Sun, but I don't know where it is and whether it still exists at all.

The file gives you access to the help files in the local help viewer with the same structure as the files are arranged in the source. It adds a new section in the Contents tab of the built-in help.

In the same old bug report, you find the files maintransform.xml and default.css. Here the same, I don't know whether a current version for LibreOffice has ever been produced. Nevertheless they can be applied on the built-in help.


I know that these files are not required. But as far as I understand, it should
make the work with help files easier.
Could you explain this issue to me, please?

These files help to locate the exact place in the source, when you see an error in the built-in help. They were used by translators to help Sun developers to fix the errors.

But here in LibreOffice you need a local copy of the help files anyway to generate a patch for Gerrit. So these helpers are indeed not necessary. Nevertheless I have used them from time to time to make embedding and sections visible, before the extension was available.

Read more about it in https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Pootle_User_Guide/Technical_Helpers#Make_Your_Installation_Verbose, which also explains how to set the environment variable.

Kind regards
Regina
