Disable Zoom for Images
It is now possible to disable the WebHelp zoom functionality for particular
images. You can flag the images that should not have zoom functionality by using the
no-zoom value for the
@outputclass
attribute on the
particular images.Open Custom Logo URL in a New Tab
You can control whether clicking the URL for a custom WebHelp logo will open it
in the same tab or in a new tab. This can be configured using the new

outputclass="wh-tabbed"
attribute. This works for lists
(<ol>
, <ul>
), definition lists
(<dl>
), and <choicetable>
elements.Open WebHelp and PDF Produced by DITA OT Project
By default, when running DITA OT Project transformations from the application,
the generated WebHelp and PDF outputs are now opened in the proper associated system
application.
