RoboHelp is missing ouput preset for CHM generation - adobe

Adobe RoboHelp 2020 Trial Version:
The list of available output presets is also missing Responsive HTML5, and Mobile App.
I did have a problem with the PDF output geneation. Error message advised to install Java runtime, as it was missing. After Java installation, PDF genearated. But its bookmarks did not work at all.
I have worked laboriously at learning how to use the RoboHelp; and also took several days to create my project. I desperately need to generate CHM output for a Windows program that I developed. I was devastated when I finally went to generate CHM output/Microsoft HTML Help, it was not on thelist of presets.
That said, I am at wits end, having searched for potential solutions. Can someone please suggest a solution?

Also the Adobe RoboHelp 2020 Trial Version contains the functionality to generate CHM help files.
To add and output the Microsoft HTML Help (CHM) in your presets, click the + icon in the Outputs panel as shown in the screenshot below.
Select Type Microsoft HTML Help
Enter a short Name like CHM
After that it is available for permanent use, e.g. in the Quick Generate window.

I updated RH 2020.
I selected the Microsoft HTML Help preset
I configured the preset: I selected the TOC file. I specified the output folder, which is on a different drive than the project folder. (I knew that it could not be in the location whose parent folder was the project folder.)
Then I clicked the command button to generate the CHM. The progress display continuously indicated the various task that were being performed during the generation process.
Ultimately, I clicked the View Output button. The program displayed an error message indicating that the CHM filed could not be opened. I checked the output designation folder; and, the file existed. However, it was only 1 KB. I double-clicked the CHM file; but, the same error message appeared as when I attempted to open the file from within RoboHelp.
As an aside, I tried he same process with RoboHelp’s sample project, i.e., Compass Travel. And, wouldn’t you know it? The CHM file did properly generate and display; even the bookmarks functioned as expected.
That said, I had mentioned in the original post that I had generated a PDF output. But, the bookmarks did not worked.
Clarification:
The H 1 bookmarks display. However, clicking anyone of the them results in nothing. Whereas most of the H 1 folders have several H 2 subfolders; and there existed two H-3 level items.

Reliable and Free way to convert .docx, .doc, .rtf to PDF in .net

The problem is, we dont have MS Office in our university anymore, earlier we used its
preview feature in Windows File Explorer, so to view multiple assignments on the fly by
just clicking on the word file or using arrow keys navigation. This helped us the teachers, to
check many assignments without having to open each file 1 by 1. Now we switched to WPS Office,
thus the preview feature in windows explorer is gone. This made the assignments checking extremely
slow as now we have to open each file before marking it.
I am a teacher too, who can code a little, so I want to build up an application in windows forms,
that enables to preview .docx, .dox and .rtf files. I tried hard since 1.5 months so far, used
Pandoc, OpenXML Powertools, tried with trial versions of libraries like Aspire, Aspose, GemBox, Xceeds
But so far no free and reliable solution is found, some of them either spoil the formatting in unacceptable way. Some of them have trial limits. Most of them do not convert word own drawings (that the students draw inside Word document itself).
So basically I am looking for a reliable and free resource that converts the whole document,
doesn't miss anything and is free. We the teachers, still can overlook formatting a little.
What I have tried: Everything as listed above, in win forms application
Current best solution working for us: Using Syncfusion DocIO library to convert the said file
formats to PDF and then loading that PDF in a CefSharp browser control in winforms. This requires
just ~2 seconds load time of the document and gives nice zooming options. But its a trial version
and eventually it will expire after trial period.
NOTE: I cannot use any online or server based solution as it will be very slow (consider clicking on the file and then waiting for more than 10 seconds to load a converted document).

RStudio Programmatically Set Directory in Files Tab

I am trying to programmatically set directory in the Files tab within RStudio. The version of RStuido is 1.1.453. I have tried looking within rstudioapi package but the relevant functions that I found selectDirectory() and selectFile() open an interactive file tree browser and they do not change the Files tab content. I know that one can use setwd() then in the Files tab use More -> Go To Working Directory but I need to do this fully programmatically.
In summary I wish there was a function setFilesTab(dirpath = ) which I could submit and the Files tab would change the focus to the dirpath.
Thank you so much for your help and time!
This is my first post on this website; so, hello to all.
I am excited to be part of this community.
Just adding to the answer by RoyalTS, I wanted to specifically tell the files tab to open the working directory. This code works:
rstudioapi::filesPaneNavigate(getwd())
Cheers,
Jason

bookdown/rmarkdown/knitr: links from PDF to local files and windows/OSX

My bookdown report knitted to PDF tries to link to the underlying results like so
[This](./somedir/.) directory contains some data.
or so
[This file](./somedir/specific_data.txt) contains something more specific.
On (Arch)Linux using okular (my devel environment) all of this just works fine (file manager opens for the first, MIME type defined application for the second link), but on MS Windows and OSX Acrobat Reader asks whether to follow that link and after allowing to do so, the only thing that happens is that the dialog window disappears ...
Is what I want generally impossible on those platforms or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks, Joh
I found the solution:
[This](run:somedirrelativetothedocument/.) directory contains some data.
[This file](run:somedirrelativetothedocument/specific_data.txt) contains something more specific.

How to access the script/source history in RStudio?

I would like to access the history of what have been typed in the source panel in RStudio.
I'm interested in the way we learn and type code. Three things I would like to analyse are: i) the way a single person type code, ii) how different persons type code, iii) the way a beginner improve typing.
Grabbing the history of commands is quite satisfying as first attempt in this way but I would like to reach a finer granularity and thus access the successive changes, within a single line in a way.
So, to be clear, I'm neither looking for the history of commands or for a diff between different versions of and .R file.
What I would like to access is really the successive alterations to the source panel that are visible when you recursively press Ctrl+Z. I do not know if there is a more accurate word for what I describe, but again what I'm interested in is how bits of code are added/moved/deleted/corrected/improved in the source panel but not necessary passed to the Console and thus absent from the history of command.
This must be somewhere/somehow saved by RStudio as it is accessible by the later. This may be saved in a quite hidden/private/memory/process/... way and I have a very vague idea of how a GUI works. I do not know it if would be easily accessible, then programmaticaly analyzed, typically if we could save a file from it. Timestamps would be the cherry on top but I would be happy without.
Do you have idea how to access this history?
RStudio's source panel is essentially a view to an Ace Editor. As such you'd need to access the editor session's editSession and use getDocument or getWordRange along with the undo of the editSession's undoManager instance.
I don't think you'll be doing that from within RStudio without hacking on the RStudio code unless the RStudio Addin api is made to pass-thru editor events in the future.
It might be easier to write a session recorder as changes are made rather than try to mess with the undo history. I imagine you could write an Addin that calls a javascript to communicate over the existing RStudio port using the Ace Editor's events (ie. onChange).
As #GegznaV said, RStudio saves code history to a ".RHistory" file. It's in the "Documents" folder on my computer. It's probably the same folder if you're using Windows. If you do not know the location, you can find the file by searching.
It also allows saving RStudio history to a file manually. There is a "Save" button in the History panel. So you can also get a timestamp. You can ask different users to save their code history after they have finished writing code. It may be indirectly useful to your research.

Alfresco giving same search result on each page

Whenever I search for a content in alfresco, suppose there are 250 result found, the 1,2,3 etc pages are showing the same file instead of 250 different files.
Sorry I cant show the file name. I think the image and the modified result is enough to show. How to fix this ?
I am using alfresco 4.2 e binary installer.
I found the root cause of the problem. It is because I used this fix. Since alfresco search two words using or rather than and. I removed the javascript and now its working fine.
