Topic List and Content Build Tags

Topic List view does not show Content Build Tag properties for all topics that have them.

Using Windows 7, 64-bit, RH9-HTML.

I double-checked the properties window for a few of the topics and they do indeed have a build tag selected, but that tag does not show up in the Content Build Tag column in the Topic List view.

I am not exactly sure when this changed, but I recently upgraded from RH8 to RH9.  Could have been then.

It appears that the tags are working for my generated layout.

Only other commonality seems to be that they are all topics not in a TOC (TOC=no), but there might be others.  Is this by design?

Hi there

I think we are comparing spiders to hedgehogs here. Build tags may be applied to content inside a topic. (Words, paragraphs, characters, Images, etc.) and those are Content level tags.

Hi there

Does anything change if you clear the CPD and allow RoboHelp to rebuild it?

Cheers... Rick

Nope...I renamed the CPD and let RH rebuild it, but no, the build tags are still not in the Topic List view.

I also now have one broken link that was not there before.

Hello again

Sooo, are you maybe instead saying you don't see a column for the build tags? Or do you have the column present, but some tags are listed and some aren't?

Cheers... Rick

Hi...the column is there (Detail View) and the tags are there for some topics.

For the ones that are not showing in the Topic List, the Topic Properties do have them marked and these topics used to (RH8?) have their tags show up in the List.

Thanks for your replies.

Ah-ha!!  Thank you so much...the upgrade to RH9 must have reset the columns in my list view.  I am glad it was just operator error.
