The Add/Edit Help Title is available from the Register dialog (H2 Utilities dialog). This dialog allows you to add or edit an H2 Collection Title (a MS Help 2 Help file).
Title ID: Each Title (.HxS Help file) in the collection must be given a unique Title ID. This is often the Help filename with no file extension. Try and avoid using spaces in the Title ID name.
Language: Select a Language (En US for English speaking countries).
Help File (.HxS): Enter the full path to the help file (title) you are adding.
Index File (.HxI): Enter a .HxI Index filename (if available). If no Index is used (normal case) you can leave this field blank, or enter the name of the .HxS help file (since the HxI file is normally embedded inside the HxS help file).
When editing more than one Title the Title, HxS and HxI fields become non-editable (grayed).
 |
Using a separate .HxI Index file can improve performance of your help system.
Each Help file can have one associated Index file. The HxI Index file is
normally embedded inside the .HxS help file. The HxI file is optional and is generated by the help compiler
when HxI output is enabled in your project settings. |
Press the Advanced button to hide / show the following advanced Title settings. Note that FAR initially shows the advanced panel only if one or more of the fields contain data.
The Advanced settings allow you to optimized your help for speed.
Query File (HxQ): Specify the .HxQ file (Optional - normally leave blank).
|
|
The HxQ file is optional. It contains the combined Full-text search information of all your help file(s). Several titles will often share the same HxQ file. To generate a HxQ file, use the HxMerge.exe utility supplied with the MS Help 2.x SDK. |
Attribute Query File (HxR): Specify the .HxR file (Optional - normally leave blank).
|
|
The HxR file is optional. It contains the combined attributes for all your help files. So several titles will often share the same HxR file. To generate a HxR file, use the HxMerge.exe utility supplied with the MS Help 2.x SDK. |
Use these fields if you ship your help system on CD-ROM or DVD-ROM.
Help File (.HxS): Directory where to find the HxS help file (Optional - normally leave blank).
Query File (.HxQ): Directory where to find HxQ combined full-text search file (Optional - normally leave blank).
Attr Query File (.HxR): Directory where to find HxR combined attribute file (Optional - normally leave blank).
Sample Files: Directory where to find uncompressed sample files (Optional - normally leave blank).
|
|
Do not attempt to specify Compressed HxE sample files. These can always be located as they are stored in the HxS help file. |
