10.6 Choosing navigation features for OmniHelp

You can choose which navigation features to provide in OmniHelp; the default is to include them all:

[OmniHelpOptions]

; NavElems = navigation elements to display in left pane:

;  Toc, Idx, Fts, Rel

NavElems=Toc Idx Fts Rel

Table 10-4 lists the navigation features; all are displayed in the left-hand frame:

Table 10-4 OmniHelp navigation features

Feature	NavElems value	Reference
Contents	Toc	§7.4 Configuring contents entries for Help systems §10.7 Configuring contents and index for OmniHelp
Index	Idx	§7.5 Configuring index entries for Help systems §10.7 Configuring contents and index for OmniHelp
Full-text search	Fts	§10.10 Configuring full-text search for OmniHelp
Related topics	Rel	§10.8 Providing related-topic links in OmniHelp

If you do not intend to include an index, omit the Idx item:

[OmniHelpOptions]

NavElems= Toc Fts Rel

If you do not have ALinks, omit the Rel item also.

You can choose whether Mif2Go generates the data files needed for contents, index, search, and related topics; however, most likely you will never have a reason to change the default settings:

[OmniHelpOptions]

; ListType = Both (default), Contents, or Index

ListType = Both

; RefFileType = Full (default for single files),

;  Body (default for books), or None.

RefFileType=Full

RefFileType values have the following effects:

Full	Default for single files. Mif2Go creates a set of myproj.oh* files for the original FrameMaker file.
Body	Default for books. Mif2Go creates a set of DCL .bh* files that are merged with those from other chapter files to produce a combined set of myproj.oh* files for the book.
None	No myproj.oh* files nor DCL .bh* files are produced.
