I have been putting 'Include Topic' widgets inside 'Drop Down Section' widgets to build large, role-orientated topics from lots of smaller topics. The system has worked fine for over a year, but now when I save or publish my project, Help Studio changes the Include Topic code from this:
<innovasys:widget layout="block" type="Include Topic">
<innovasys:widgetproperty layout="inline" name="Topic">
Snip_Paths</innovasys:widgetproperty>
</innovasys:widget>
into this:
<innovasys:widgetproperty layout="block" name="Content">
<div style=
"BORDER-BOTTOM: white 1px solid; BORDER-LEFT: #ddecfe 2px solid; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN-TOP: 2px; PADDING-LEFT: 2px; PADDING-RIGHT: 2px; MARGIN-LEFT: -2px; BORDER-TOP: white 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: -2px; BORDER-RIGHT: #ddecfe 2px solid; PADDING-TOP: 0px; widget-type: Include Topic; widget-layout: block"
class="InnovaContentWidget" onmouseover=
"if (event.offsetX < 10 && event.srcElement == this) { this.children[0].style.display='block';} event.cancelBubble=true;"
onmouseout=
"BLOCKED SCRIPTtimerTarget=this.children[0];if (timerTarget.style.display=='block') {if (this.timeoutId) clearTimeout(this.timeoutId); this.timeoutId = setTimeout('try {document.getElementById(\'' + timerTarget.uniqueID + '\').style.display=\'none\'} catch (ex) { }',3000);}"
contenteditable="false">
<div style=
"PADDING-BOTTOM: 2px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ddecfe; PADDING-LEFT: 2px; WIDTH: auto; PADDING-RIGHT: 2px; DISPLAY: none; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2px; FLOAT: left; MARGIN-LEFT: -3px; VERTICAL-ALIGN: top; PADDING-TOP: 0px"
class="InnovaContentWidgetBar" on_mouseout=
"BLOCKED SCRIPTtimerTarget=this;parentElement.timeoutId=setTimeout('timerTarget.style.display=\'none\'',3000);"
on_mouseover=
"BLOCKED SCRIPTif (parentElement.timeoutId) clearTimeout(parentElement.timeoutId);">
<strong>Include Topic</strong> <a id="editwidget" title=
"Edit this Widget"><img style="POSITION: relative; TOP: 2px"
id="editwidget" border="0" src=
"C:/Program Files/Innovasys/Common/widgeticons/edit.gif"></a> <a id="deletewidget"
title="Delete this Widget"><img style=
"POSITION: relative; TOP: 2px" id="deletewidget" border="0"
src="C:/Program Files/Innovasys/Common/widgeticons/delete.gif"></a>
</div><img src=
"C:/Program Files/Innovasys/HelpStudio3/Configuration/icons/include.gif"> Include:
Snip_Paths<span style="DISPLAY: none; VISIBILITY: hidden" id=
"Topic" class="WidgetProperty">Snip_Paths</span>
</div>
</innovasys:widgetproperty>
As a result, the included topic does not appear in the published Webhelp. Instead, I just get a line saying, "Include Topic Include: Snip_SchemesAndResources". Any suggestions?
