Hi!

I would like to use quickbook for writing non-boost specific articles,
however, I'm having a hard time getting boostbook to play nice and
remove the navbar and boost logo at the top of all the generated
documentation. There is an xsl parameter to remove the navbar, but the
logo remains, and another post from Doug Gregor suggests the only way to
remove the logo is to alter or remove navbar.xsl from the boostbook/xsl
directory. This is a pain, as I'd like to be able to build my
documentation out of the box.

Perhaps the following xsl parameters could help:

    boost.image.src - file for the logo
    boost.image.alt - alternate text
    boost.image.w   - width
    boost.image.h   - height

While changing these won't remove the logo per se, they do allow you to put in another picture in its place.

At this point I'd settle for a hack, but I think it'd be really valuable
in the future to be able to more easily write non-boost documentation.

Well, the quickest hack to completely remove the logo would be to delete or comment (<!-- like this -->) lines 59-65 of navbar.xsl.

What do others think about this, is it worthwhile to add a parameter to remove the logo? What should it be? FWIW, I could add the parameter nav.logo (= "yes/no") for this.

There are many software (and even non-software) projects that could
benefit from the combination of quickbook + Boost.Build and yet it seems
to be difficult to get boostbook to behave itself in other environments.
Just my two cents.

There are some rough edges here and there but, I think, nothing that can't be worked out. I'm also interested in documenting non-Boost code and will try to provide fixes I see fit. Are there other specific issues you have come across?

Best regards,


João
