WebHelp - TOC Default View

Apologies, Peter.

RH version: 9.0 (part of Technical Communication Suite)

WebHelp:  When I compile, I select WebHelp in the dropdown even though I'm using AIR. Not completely sure about the distinction.

2nd image:  Well, I open the top-level parent folder and then the next tier of subtopic books display.

I agree that it would seem to be reasonably intuitive that a user would know to simply click the top-level book to see the remaining contents, but I had some internal complaints from the engrg/development side of the house and just wondered if there were other ways to alter the default TOC view, perhaps to already be expanded when the site opens.

So basically have all the parent-level folders on the same level.  That's easy enough to do.  I guess I just wanted to create a particular hierarchy off the Welcome page, but I guess it can just as easily sit on the same level.

I think of structures like this one at Al Fresco, for example, where the content starts at a top-level and then opens up . . . well, you get the idea of course.

Yes, of course.

But the request that was made to me . . . was to have the TOC "tree" already open when the user first arrives, rather than having to click it. They claimed it wasn't intuitive, though I think it's nitpicking myself.

I'll probably opt for your earlier "undent" suggestion.
