Re: FM 11/RH10 Multiscreen HTML Output - making changes to the default Desktop output

2013-04-25 Thread Robert Lauriston
Sounds like the HTML 5 layout is not compatible with WebHelp skins:

A screen layout has two key components, a set of screen layout pages
and a CSS. The screen layout pages define the content and the
structure. The CSS defines the layout and the skin.

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS1b49059a33f77726-5d8e23a513606e3bbe2-7ffe.html

Do you have a compelling reason to use the brand-new and probably not
ready for prime-time HTML 5 layout?

 or is it a major design from scratch issue?

No, HTML 5 doesn't seem close to ready for prime time to me, at least
if you have a lot of users on MSIE.

Plus after evaluating RoboHelp 10 I decided to switch to WebWorks
ePublisher. Though I'm not going to use its HTML5 output any time
soon, either.

FM 11/RH10 Multiscreen HTML Output - making changes to the default Desktop output

2013-04-24 Thread Martinek, Carla
Ok, I've been trying to find this answer in the RoboHelp and FrameMaker help 
all morning, and not having any luck, so I'll throw it out to the group. It's 
been a decade-plus since I worked in RoboHelp, so don't remember much. My 
source content is in FM11.

I know what I want to do, just not how to make it happen. I want to use one of 
the skins that shipped with RH10 in the Multiscreen HTML 5 output (for the 
WebHelp/Desktop output). I was able to create an individual WebHelp_Pro layout 
using my preferred skin, but cannot for the life of me figure out how/where to 
edit the default Multiscreen HTML 5 Desktop output/layout to use that same 
skin. How/where do I go in RH to make that change?

Once I know how to change one of the output layouts in the Multiscreen layout, 
I can change the other layouts as desired. Once back in FM 11  I can easily 
select the correct project template when I want to publish the document from 
there.

I know this has to be fairly simply, but its escaping me.

Thx
Carla

Sounds like the HTML 5 layout is not compatible with WebHelp skins:

"A screen layout has two key components, a set of screen layout pages
and a CSS. The screen layout pages define the content and the
structure. The CSS defines the layout and the skin."

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS1b49059a33f77726-5d8e23a513606e3bbe2-7ffe.html

Do you have a compelling reason to use the brand-new and probably not
ready for prime-time HTML 5 layout?
