If they do fix the problem, it should not affect projects set
up the way I describe.
At the moment, if you put all the child projects in a folder
called mergedProjects (that is, the same as the folder that gets
generated by RoboHelp) then the links between parent and child
would work in the output. The problem is that in the source the
links from parent to child falsely report as broken so that you
cannot easily see truly broken links. Thus fixing that really
should not break anything.
That said I would still carry on using this method as it does
make it much easier to work.
I notice you mentioned having a number of parent projects. I
wondered why you do that as one parent should suffice unless it is
to get different skins or suchlike. Not sure if you are aware the
idea is to generate all the projects and then just deliver what is
required. You don't need to keep compiling different
configurations.
