We show thumbnails in the help and allow users to click the image to view the larger graphic. It works well, except that the extracted files show up in Search results with non-user-friendly titles (e.g., ag551822.htm, ag550038.htm, etc.). Screenshot attached. I tried inserting Search markers to prevent the extracted files from being included in the Search, but it did not work (I suspect the Search markers only work for splits, not extracts). Then I tried changing the Title variable for the extract to the current title, but that didn't work either (I suspect I'm not using the right parameters in the ini file).
Does anyone know how to 1) prevent extracted files from being included in MS HTML help (CHM files) or 2) set a user-friendly title for extracted files that will show up in Search results in MS HTML help (CHM files)?

Excluding from search
The search marker with content no should be in the anchor paragraph for the extracted graphic. To get it to work in CHM you will need the current beta of dwhtm.dll from the download page. We do that by changing the file extension to .xhtml since hhc.exe only indexes files with *.htm? so it ignores the .xhtml.
The [Title] setting should work if you use the correct base file name for the extracted file.
