10Tec Help Viewer 2.2 with search and other enhancements
2024-Jan-29
This update of our help viewer for MSHC files brings several great improvements, including the full-text search feature. Now you can search for words or phrases in topic texts and get search results in a snap. The tool will automatically highlight all occurrences of a search phrase in the topic and even scroll it to the first occurrence automatically:
You can adjust the search functionality with new settings in the application configuration file. For example, you can specify your own colors to highlight search phrase occurrences and specify topic HTML elements to ignore during search (such as service menus).
Other two important enhancements are mouse gestures allowing you to scroll topics quickly to top or bottom and support for cursor movement keys in the table of contents so that this tree works like standard tree-view controls. More info is in the comprehensive What's New:
