More User Experience Improvements

Every release contains a number of features and enhancements Doc-To-Help users are asking for. Other improvements you will find in this release include:

  • Easier upgrade process: It is easier to preserve your custom themes and templates when upgrading your Doc-To-Help version.
  • Easily accessible NetHelp files for customization: The JavaScript NetHelp 2.0 that controls the behavior of NetHelp is contained in an easy-to-access file.
  • Automatic index navigation for NetHelp 2.0: The index tab is automatically displayed or hidden depending on whether or not you have an index.
  • Section 508 compliance for NetHelp 2.0: NetHelp 2.0 is now Section 508 compliant. We have added keyboard shortcuts, screen reader compatibility, and more.
  • Topic XHTML Wizard: Specify boilerplate content or code to insert in every topic.
  • Keep documents open during the build process (for Word users): Before, it was necessary to close Word when building projects. That is no longer a requirement.
