Create Topic Wizard dialog

This dialog is displayed when you create a new topic. It includes the following tabs:

General: Use this tab to change the topic title and its corresponding HTML file name.

Status: Use this tab to manage authoring tasks. You can assign status and priority, estimate hours, check off To Do tasks as they are completed, and add relevant comments about topic development.

Appearance: Use this tab to specify how the topic should look when displayed in the viewer. You can select background images, wallpaper, topic background colors, sound clips to play on topic open, and colors for body text and links. This tab also provides options for linking style sheets to topics, creating new style sheets, adding existing style sheets into projects and editing style sheets.

Index: Use this tab to add, remove, and modify keywords for topics. You can work with both index file keywords (saved in the .HHK index file) and topic file keywords (saved in individual HTML topic files). You can also use this tab to copy keywords from other topics and run the Smart Index Wizard to automate indexing.

ALink: Use this tab to add, remove and modify ALink names for topics.

Information Types: Use this tab to assign the topic to information types that are available in your project.

Advanced: Use this tab to create and assign build tags to topics, remove build tags from topics, and find out if topics are included in browse sequences.
