Browse sequences

Create or edit browse sequences

Use browse sequences to provide a path for your readers to move through a series of topics. When working with browse sequences, keep in mind the following:

You cannot include HTML files or external topics from other Help systems in browse sequences.

A single topic can belong to multiple browse sequences.

Each type of Help displays browse sequences differently. In WebHelp layouts, you can enable or disable browse sequences at a project level. In both WebHelp and Adobe AIR layouts, you can select the browse sequences that you want to display. If the layout defines content catego­ries, you can select browse sequences for each content category. For information about how to enable or disable browse sequences and select them for content categories, see Configure the Adobe AIR layout and Generate WebHelp output.
