If a change is required, as long as it is made in the shared location, it is automatically applied to each and every project where it is used. Having the ability to store a file type in the shared location and for it to be dynamically linked to the project, makes the managing of resources a breeze. In RoboHelp 9 these issues have been resolved. For a start you were limited to only certain file types and there was no dynamic link between the files stored there and their usage inside your projects. However it had in my opinion some fairly severe limitations that made it next to useless. RoboHelp 8 had a Resources Manager pod where you could store some commonly used elements inside your RoboHelp projects. In RoboHelp 9 there is a better solution. This only goes so far as existing projects are unaffected.
In the past we’ve managed this to a degree by having a blank RoboHelp project in our source control system.

If we change our style sheet, the company changes its corporate look and feel, or we change a skin to add a custom button, this change has to be applied across each and every help system we maintain. Some may see this a negative but as a RoboHelp user since the late 1990s, I’d say why change something that isn’t broke? Managing ResourcesĪs the senior member in a team of five Technical Writers spread across three locations, managing our project resources is a major issue. What is equally reassuring is that despite numerous versions, incarnations and company acquisitions, the basic user interface has remained largely unchanged.
Yes there is a learning curve, like any new application, but it feels strangely comfortable. If you use Microsoft Word, opening up RoboHelp should not be that much of a shock. RoboHelp 9, the latest version to be released by Adobe Systems, is being heralded as a major version, so what does it include? One of the big bonuses for new users of RoboHelp is the familiarity of its user interface. in /home/iawalsh1/public_html/technical-writing/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3893 Notice: get_currentuserinfo is deprecated since version 4.5.0!
