8.02 Defects List?

Is there a list anywhere of currently known WebHelp 8.02 bugs?

I'm having numerous issues after upgrading from 7 to 8.02. One is a known issue - Related Topics control triggered by script does not work without manual patch.

Others I am experiencing:

  • Template clobbered when converted to master page (weird path alterations).
  • Related topics control simply not publishing at all.
  • CSS changes.
  • Flickering cursor (supposedly fixed by 8.02).
  • Project files list constantly refreshing (randomly?). It's like the project never opens and "settles in." The project is on my drive.

Sadly it is going to take some time to sort all of this out. This is the first upgrade in my long Robo history that has resulted in so much breakage.

http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh8/using_rh8.htm lists some but it is not exhaustive and does not cover what you are reporting!

Related Topics control - Maybe someone else can come in on this or you can search these forums. Follow your search by +robohelp to limit the results. There is a script on my site that converts Related Topics to a See Also list, if that helps.


Template  clobbered when converted to master page (weird path alterations) - I don't think that has been an issue.

Related  topics control simply not publishing at all. - see above

CSS  changes. - If you are talking about lists, there are many threads on that. See also the RoboHelp Tour on my site and look under Lists there.

Flickering cursor (supposedly fixed by  8.02). - Fixed by 801 not 802 and I haven't seen reports since then.

Project files list constantly refreshing  (randomly?). It's like the project never opens and "settles in." The  project is on my drive. That was something that was a warning that a project was about to go belly up before the 802 patch was released. See Opening Projects on my site. With a backup in place, try deleting the CPD file and reopening the project.
