Text Layouts

When writing topics of a help system you usually use a fixed set of font attributes. But it is inconvenient and not effective to apply these attributes to different fragments of text by using the Formatting toolbar. Help Development Studio gives you an alternative way to set font, color and other attributes for the selected text. You can define several text layouts and then select them from a menu (layouts can be selected from the menu Edit|Layout or from the popup menu which is called when you right-click on the text editor) or by clicking a specified keyboard shortcut.

To create and edit text layouts for your help project, use the Edit command from the Edit|Layout menu.
