USING ROBOHELP HTML 9 63 Projects Delete a generated topic When you delete a generated topic, you have two options. You can regenerate the deleted topic when you update the linked Word document or completely remove the deleted topic from your project. By default, RoboHelp regenerates the deleted topic when you update the Word document. 1 In the Project Manager pod, expand the linked Word document to display the topics generated from it. 2 Right-click the topic that you want to delete, and select Delete. 3 Do one of the following: • Click OK to delete the topic from the project permanently. The deleted topic is not regenerated when you update the Word document. • Select Generate This File On Next Update and click OK to delete the topic. When you update the Word document, the deleted topic is generated again. Regenerate a deleted topic If you delete a topic generated from a linked Word document, the topic is removed from the project. However, you can regenerate topics deleted from a linked document. 1 Right-click the linked Word document in the Project Manager pod and select Properties. 2 In the Word Document Settings dialog box, select File Update Settings tab. 3 On the right column, select the deleted files that you want to retrieve and click OK. 4 Update the Word document. Edit a linked Word document You can edit linked Word documents directly in Microsoft Word. 1 Right-click a document and select Edit. 2 Edit the Word document in Microsoft Word. 3 Click Save. The modified Word document now appears in the Project Manager pod with a different icon. This icon indicates that the source content is now out of sync with the topics generated from the linked Word document. Note: Force an update of the document after you edit the source in Microsoft Word. Delete a linked Word document You can directly delete documents linked by copy from the Project Files folder, and you can delete the references of the documents linked by reference. ❖ Right-click a document and select Delete. When you delete a linked file, all its associated documents, such as CSS, images, baggage files, and multimedia files, are also deleted. Notes: • If a referenced file is moved to a different location, its icon changes. You can restore the link to the Word document by pointing to its new location. • Do not rename files generated after linking a Word document. • You cannot drag the generated topics outside the parent Microsoft Word document folder to some other location in the Project Manager pod.
