Hello!
I am working with Robohelp 10 and would like to use twisties for some drop down topics I have. I would like to be able to show/hide all as well as each individual twisty. I have searched for some help on this and found a topic on Peter Grainge's site, but this is for RH8 and before... I wondered if there is a more up-to-date work around or way of doing this for RH 10 that I'm missing? I am producing webhelp for the project.
Many thanks.

The methods are demonstrated in projects created with RoboHelp 8 but are still good for RoboHelp 10.
RoboHelp still does not have any Show All / Hide All function built in.
The more people who report a bug or request a feature, the more likely it is to be actioned. Please follow this link.

Thanks for the link Peter. I have just gone and made a request for this to be a feature in Robohelp.
As for the script, I am going to sit with one of our developers to see if they can get this to work as I am not great on scripts/coding. However, my concern is such that your code after the first blue text doesn't match what I have. The way twisties are inserted in RH 10 is done through the style settings and there isn't a graphic that you actually put into the text. This graphic shows once you generate the help. So the code you have can't call to a graphic as it's not noted in the HTML...
Not sure if any of that makes sense. As I say, I will sit with a developer and see if they can make it work... I will report back.
Thanks for your time!

I am sure your developer will be able to follow the instructions.
Note that on the http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/twisty/twisty.htm page there is a Toolbar Show / Hide that works with RoboHelp's twisties.

Hi,
RoboHelp 10 now supports twisties for specific dropdowns too. For show/hide all, the RoboHelp 8 version of the script should still be good.
Greet,
Willam
