Re: Controlling link group order in Dynamic Help
Hi Rob,
Another go? Yeah, I want things the way I want them. I know we already
had this conversation, and I applied your advice - the priority for my
custom link group is already higher than the others:
Help 500
Actions 900
Miscellaneous 10
Samples 400
Getting Started 300
InVision Software Class Library 1000
I seem to remember reading somewhere that 1000 was the maximum
priority, but I could be wrong.
Thanks for the links. I've seen the msdn page and it doesn't say much.
I will have to work through the itzero chapter, which does indeed look
conprehensive, and see if there's anything I missed. As I said, my
topics seem to be appearing in the DH window but I'm not happy with the
priority. I'm immersed in somethine else right now, but I'll let you
know how it goes.
Regards,
Carolyn
