Table of contents

One of the most important part of the help is the table of contents. This navigation panel is a place where you can easily define the structure and appearance of the table of contents for your help.

When you select the topic in table of contents, an appropriate page is automatically displayed, where you can select, create (or open for editing) the topic file, that you want. Alternatively you can assign the "merged contents" or the "heading" for current content item.

The table of contents navigation panel and the topic page is closely linked, and in fact constitute a whole, that can quickly and effectively define the help contents.

The most important options and actions, concerning the editing of contents and topics, are available also at ribbon bar (the Contents tab).

In addition to the standard editing features, the Precision Helper offers a wide support of the clipboard and drag & drop functions. And not only in the context of the application and its instances, but also between Precision Helper and other applications (see below).

See also the description about the automatic insertion of topics into the contents and description about the index editing.

Note:
    If there is a more tables of contents in the project file (eg, in window type definitions), a button for easy switching between them is displayed in the navigation panel.
