Working in WYSIWYG

You will spend a great deal of your project development time in the WYSIWYG Editor creating the content of your topics. Working with text in the WYSIWYG Editor is similar to using your favorite word processor with the added power of a desktop publishing tool. Since it is a WYSIWYG Editor, what you see is an excellent representation of how the topic will look in the viewer.

The WYSIWYG Editor conforms to HTML standards and automatically generates reliable HTML code behind the scenes. You can quickly create and format text, work with tables and frames, insert hyperlinks, add images and multimedia, and create Help objects such as related topics. You can do all this and more without ever having to type in a single HTML tag.

The WYSIWYG Editor is equipped with a full text-editing interface. Using menu commands, tool palette and toolbar buttons, and keyboard shortcuts, you can easily format text, copy and move information, create bulleted and numbered lists, and do many other word-processing tasks.
