184.0. "<SET_ONLINE_TOPIC> questions" by SARAH::DONOHUE () Thu Aug 10 1989 15:01

    I about to start using the <SET_ONLINE_TOPIC> tag to better organize
    some existing Bookreader books. First a few questions that the
    documentation doesn't answer. 
    
    1. I assume that I can have only 1 argument to the tag. Is this
    correct?
    
    2. If I use the tag to identify a <HEAD3> as a chunk, will the head 1s
    and 2s not be included in the chunking?
    
    3. If 1. and 2. are correct, I assume I will have to use a series of
    the tags to get all head 1s, 2s, and 3s read as chunks. Is this
    correct?
    
    I did check the notes and replies and wasn't able to find the info.
    
    Thanks,

184.1read the docAITG::WARNERWho ya gonna call? TOOLBUSTERS!Thu Aug 10 1989 15:4911
    You need to look at Mary Utt's "Coding Documentation Source Files for
    the DECwindows Bookreader".
    
    Copy it from: VAXUUM::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V11]WRITER_GUIDELINES.PS
    
    It has info about <set_online_topic>. Basically, you set it in the
    profile or individual files, it stays in effect until changed, and all
    levels above are still online topics (if you set to head3, head2 and
    head1 are also topics).

    Thanks, Ross. Yes, that document should answer your questions, Jack. If
    not, please post questions here and I'll attempt to answer them (and
    update the document accordingly).
    
    There is a somewhat newer version of the document for the latest
    release (under VAX DOCUMENT V1.2), although the <set_online_topic>
    info has not changed. It's in:
    
    VAXUUM::KITS_:[DOCUMENT.V12.BOOKS]WRITER_GUIDELINES.PS
    
    (There are also .LN03 and .DECW$BOOK versions there.)

184.3Did read doc; didn't get answersSARAH::DONOHUEFri Aug 11 1989 09:587
    Thanks for the quick replies.
    
    I do have the documentation, and did read it before posting the
    note. It didn't clarify the relationship when specifying a low level
    head without specifying the higher levels.
