I'm not familiar with the Cmake GUI interface, but it doesn't look from what I find on the web that its able to run its build function from the GUI. The CMakeLists aren't set up in a way that's friendly for IDEs so you really are best off using the command line. After generating the build system with cmake you can use `cmake --build . --target html` but it's less typing to use `make html` or better (see next item) `ninja html`. I suggest that you also install ninja (https://ninja-build.org/ <https://ninja-build.org/>), it's much faster than make. Just tell cmake `-G Ninja` or select Ninja in the cmak-gui to get ninja build files instead of Makefiles. There's a binary available on the website or you can install it with either package manager. It's not necessary for documenters to build PDF, ePub, or MOBI documentation so don't worry about FOP.
