Editing the Table of Contents

When you import a folder, HelpSmith will create the structure of the imported sub-folders in the Table of Contents. Also, in case an imported file contains its own Table of Contents (for example, a CHM help file), HelpSmith will create a separate heading item for it. You will be able to modify the Table of Contents structure using the drag-n-drop method as described here.
