DITA Webhelp webhelp.copyright

Using Oxygen 14.2 default transform for Webhelp, copied and applying the parameter webhelp.copyright=All rights reserved.
Does not produce the words All rights reserved in the lower portion of the toc.html launched from index.html or index_frames.html.
Is this the intended use of the webhelp.copyright parameter?
Where can I find specific details in help on Oxygen-specific parameters such as webhelp.copyright, webhelp.footer.file, use.stemming.

Hello,
The parameter
webhelp.copyright is not passed correctly to the Webhelp output in version 14.2. We will fix the problem in the next maintenance build for version 14.2 and in version 15.0. If you want an Oxygen 14.2 build with this fix please download it from
here.
Regards,
Sorin

Hello,
The table from
the Parameters dialog that is opened from the transformation scenario dialog has 3 columns. The third one is called
Description and explains what that parameter does and sometimes also what values it can contain. For the
webhelp.footer.file parameter we will update the description in Oxygen 15.0 to the following:
Code: Select all
Specifies the location of a well-formed XHTML file containing your custom footer for the document body. Corresponds to XSLT parameter WEBHELP_FOOTER_FILE. The fragment must be well-formed XHTML, with a single root element. Common practice is to place all content into a <div>.
The
use.stemming parameter as the
Description column specifies is applied in the Webhelp search. It tries to apply the usual stemming techniques that are applied in a search on text content.
Regards,
Sorin

I was looking for greater details apart from what the properties tab description offered. I was hoping to learn more about the intended use of these parameters, considerations, limitations etc in the help documentation.

Hello,
The description of the webhelp.footer.file parameter seems to be complete. I don't see what else can be said: it must be a well-formed fragment of XHTML that will go in the footer of the output document body.
I think we can expand the description/documentation of the use.stemming parameter. Basically it is used for finding all words with the same root, not just the exact matches of the words from the input search box. For example if you enter copy in the search box then the results will include all locations of copy, copies, copied, copying.

Sorin
