I am currently using RoboHelp X5 and generate my project in WebHelp layout.
I wanted to know if I can add my own tab as a toolbar button. When generating, you can select to show the Contents, Index, Glossary and Search tabs. I want to add my own tab with a navigation pane and TOC similar to the Contents tab? I can't seem to figure it our in v5. Is it doable in another version?
Thanks.

Hi there
Definitely possible. You do it in the Skins editor. You have already been there or the button wouldn't be showing. All you need to do now is to edit the item and add in the static and the mouseover images.
Cheers... Rick

Wow, I didn't expect such a speedy response.
I added the text. But how do I create a new navigation pane, with specific links, when I select the new tab? I would like it to look like the contents nav pane but with different links. I glanced at "Creating Your Own FlashHelp Skins" but don't know Flash at all. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp/articles/flashhelp_skins_print.html
Thanks.

Sorry, but that's not possible.
You can only link to topics and external files (like pdf files, etc.). Perhaps if you expand on what you were hoping to provide in this navigation pane, we might suggest somethin.
Good luck,
Leon

I wanted the new "doc" tab to have it's own TOC in the nav pane. I took your suggestion and linked it to a topic and it worked great.
Thanks Leon.
