- <h1>About FlashHelp</h1>
-
- <p class=Normal>The RoboHelp family of products consists of Help authoring
- software for Help authors, technical writers, and developers who are tasked
- with creating online Help or documentation for desktop or Web-based applications.
- </p>
-
- <p class=Normal>FlashHelp is a new Flash-based online Help format available
- in RoboHelp. This output solves Dynamic HTML limitations for different
- browsers and platforms and high-security firewall issues with Java Applets,
- and provides a dynamic interface using FlashHelp skins. FlashHelp skins
- use animation, sound, color, and other elements to revolutionize the appearance
- of online Help systems. Skins can be used to match the look and feel of
- a company's Web site or product, increase the usability of online Help
- systems, or simply add interest and an updated look to a Help system.
- </p>
-
- <p class=Normal>Skins apply to the navigation pane, which is displayed
- on the left side of the Help window, and the toolbar on top of the window.
- The navigation pane typically includes a Table of Contents, Index, Search,
- and Glossary. The toolbar provides buttons used to access the Table of
- Contents, Index, etc. The topic pane contains the content and is displayed
- on the right (skins do not apply to the topic pane except the scroll bar
- in the topic).</p>
-
- <p class=Normal>A vertical-style look is also available with FlashHelp
- that is ideal for adding embedded Help to desktop applications or running
- side-by-side with Rich Internet Applications. The navigation pane is located
- on top and the topic pane is on the bottom, providing a more compact system
- that takes up less screen space. Users can easily view the application
- and Help at the same time without resizing the Help system. This style
- offers developers powerful options for integrating the Help system into
- an application.</p>
