This is a regular maintenance update, which is free for all Help+Manual 6 users. The update addresses several minor problems that surfaced since the initial release last November.
User interface:
Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down keeps focus in editor.
Insert snippet dialog box is now sizable.
Glitch with height calculation of multi-line image captions in editor fixed (in some rare cases, image captions were too high).
MathType (formula editor) OLE objects update bug fixed.
When saving HMXZ as HMXP, the reference in the XSL file still pointed to the internal old project name.
Editing styles dialog box: glitch when defining print styles differently than screen styles, while print settings actually inherit from the parent style or from defaults
Webhelp:
Help & Manual 2 Go server: HTML pages are served with a header that force the browser to clear the local cache everytime.
Webhelp: small bug in navigation script fixed (expand all or expand top level on load did not work), preloading TOC icons failed. TOC expand/collapse did not work when TOC was scrolled down.
HTML image toggles in lightboxes: the compiler switch <IF_TOGGLES> was still true for lightbox toggle images.
HTML/CSS modifications: small glitch in Webhelp keyword index fixed, heading1 to heading6 styles inherited a browser default font weight “bold”. If a heading style has a regular font-weight, this is now explicitely defined in the CSS.
Javascript popup topics: position was wrong when the topic was called from an image hotspot.
Toggle images in lightboxes: explicit z-index added to avoid conflicts with other Webhelp designs that use a z-index explicitely.
MSIE “edge” tag implemented in standard templates and skins. This tag forces Internet Explorer to use its best and most advanced mode in any case.
IPAD Export and EXE e-books:
IPad/ePUB: modified <td> tags – explicit width and height were removed to avoid problems with several ePUB readers with fixed tables.
EXE ebooks: images with blanks in file names (and other special characters) did not work in EXE e-books.
Batch export: delete temporary files for ePUB was ignored.
Batch export: include builds were ignored under certain conditions.
PDF Export:
PDF configuration: PDF template setting has been removed from the configuration, as the template is set directly in the publishing dialog.
Publishing dialog: the PDF manual template preview image function raised an error, if an MNL template was damaged – it now silently ignores the error and displays a generic preview image.
Centered or right-aligned images with a caption appeared left-aligned in PDF.
First blank line after an embedded topic was deleted while merging the content.
PDF and RTF export: if a dropdown toggle was set to “not print expanded”, an error occured.
When the editor option “Show paragraph marks” was on and automatic hyphenation was active as well, the text space was calculated too large in the PDF file.
Problem with character spacing in Russian documents fixed.
German version:
A couple of glitches in the German UI translation fixed.
Spell checker hyphenation with German hyphenation dictionary: if a word contained the character ™, the German dictionary returned a damaged string.
