The View Links feature also lets you track all topics that are linked to your current topics. This can provide a degrading user experience that may confuse the user of the help file. “Rainfall in Oceania Countries” “Climate Change”, will have the original name. The other topics that link to your topic, e.g. You then decide to call it “Annual Rainfall in Australia”. Thus, you can save time searching through your file collection as MadCap Flare is able to remind you.įor example, imagine you are writing help files on Australian weather and you decide to write a topic named “Annual Precipitation Measurements in Australia”. This is useful if you change the topic name and want to ensure that all hyperlinks to the topic, which could be in many different files, are updated. The View Links function is useful for finding out other topics that are linked to a particular topic. These features can help in your linking tasks allowing you to spend less time on linking, and ensuring that these tasks are done accurately. To reduce this burden, you can use the View Links option and the Drag and drop link feature in MadCap Flare. This is particularly true when maintaining the existing content of a large help system. But maintaining these links can be a cumbersome task. Many help sites are well-linked with links both within the help and to external sites. I spend quite a lot of time looking at the online help of other products.
