Creating a New Project

General Remark

JHelpDev lets you save the directory settings as well as the title and the views of the helpset in a project file which is in XML format.

New Project

Access this option via the file menu. The configure dialog asks you to type your settings. When you press OK a new project is build. The project directory is created, if it does not exist. The TOP target as well as the popup_icon target files are copied to the respective locations if the files do not exist yet and if the entries are not empty. All necessary XML files are created and the new helpset is shown in the helpviewer.
