A few questions:
In case the online documentation ever goes away, I downloaded the html 'user' &
'sdk' guides for Softimage from the AD website; here:
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/softimage/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-softimage-documentation.html
I installed the guides as stated in the docs and now when I use the 'help' menu
in Soft the local, off-line, html docs pop-up in a browser. Perfect!
However, after pointing Soft to the off-line docs, I get this warning on
startup:
"Couldn't locate the Softimage help topic file (toc.txt).
C:\...\doc\en\offline\sdkguide\toc.txt"
What is the toc.txt file? No mention of a help toc.txt file in the docs. The
help function works as expected. But how can I fix or suppress this warning. I
don't want to get into the habit of ignoring warnings every time Soft starts.
Another question:
Steve Blair made the Soft_User_Guide.html available in Soft_User_Guide.chm
format. I prefer the .chm help; seems faster & snappier. Can I force the 'help'
commands to use the .chm file?
And yet another question:
If the above is possible, is a Soft_SDK_Guide.chm file available, to my
knowledge only a User Guide was created? If not, how can I make a .chm file
from the .html SDK docs?
Cheers,
Derek
