Help & Manual Premium Pack 4.4.0

Adds Sandcastle Tidy utility and improves caret browsing.
February 4, 2022
New Version

Features

  • Added Sandcastle Tidy to the Toolbox utility - The new Sandcastle Tidy function automatically cleans up everything so that you can do all your formatting via the stylesheet, including the code example tables generated by Sandcastle.
  • Caret browsing in V3 and V4 skins - Caret browsing has been added to improve keyboard navigation and accessibility and was not previously supported by these skins. It allows users to navigate in the TOC with the tab key on the keyboard instead of the mouse. Support for it must be activated in the user’s browser because it is usually disabled by default. In most browsers it can be toggled on and off with F7.
  • Significantly improved Update Skin Config tool in Toolbox - All the options in the Update Skin Config tool in Toolbox now only show settings that are different from those in the new skin in each category. This includes safe baggage files edited by the user (things like headers, footers and logos) and baggage files added by the user. This makes updating new skins more efficient, showing you what you have configured and what will be updated by the tool.

Other Toolbox changes and improvements

  • Button highlights - The button for the currently selected display group is now highlighted automatically for easier identification (Variables, HTML Options, Skin Options etc).
  • Delete temporary files tool - A Delete Temporary Files tool has been added to the Tools menu. This tool is for tidying up only and deletes all old temporary files created in the user’s AppData directory when Toolbox is not configured to put them in a subfolder of the current project folder.

Other skin changes and improvements

  • New “scroll to top” feature for user links - In V3 and V4 skins you can now create your “scroll to top of topic” links with a new function for script links. This function is available in all V3 and V4 skins. This is necessary because just creating a link to the current topic cannot work in the same way as in standard skins with V3 and V4.
  • Topic Auto-TOC menu scrolls if it becomes too long - The Topic Auto-TOC menu for navigating in the current topic now automatically becomes scrollable if it is so long that it would otherwise project off the bottom of the page.
