Description Roman Szarowski 1999-11-08 21:57:19 UTC
When the help window has displayed any help content and you would like to see where is this help file in the hierarchy, there is not such an option which provides it (in the help window or anywhere)
.

[jglick] JavaHelp makes it possible to cause the currently displayed page to be synchronized with the selection in the navigation panes. As far as I know this works. However, it does not matter becaus
e the User`s Guide uses so many anchors that every selection would be an anchor, and the ICE browser does not properly keep track of which anchor it is displaying. So this will not really work unless
we use a different browser and/or we stop using WebWorks to generate the UG documentation.

adding target milestone to closed issue
Comment 4 Patrick Keegan 2003-07-10 13:58:25 UTC
reopening so that I can close as invalid (we no longer use ICE
Browser, so this bug isn't a problem anymore)

the TOC navigator tracks the given topics, unless the topic is
context-sensitive (available through a Help button) and not in the TOC
