View and Edit Book Properties

Book objects may be opened in two views.

Properties view

Opening the Book Properties enables setting of specific attributes for Print, Help and Web outputs. The Book Properties are primarily used when changing advanced settings, or creating a Book Template.

Editor view

The Editor gives you an integrated view of both book and topic contents. This view is best for creating content and is the main editor in which most of the authoring work is done.

By default, a Book opens in the Editor view. To open it in the Properties view, right-click the Book and select from the shortcut menu. You can also access the properties when in the Editor, by choosing View > Show > Book Properties.

To Edit the Book Properties:

1. Select the X5000 folder
2. Right-click the X5000 User Guide Book and choose Open Properties.

   

3. Move through the tabs; set the information in the Title and Version fields as shown.
4. Choose OK to save and close the Book.

Note: The Apply button will save the changes; the OK button will save the changes and close the object. This works for all windows where you see these buttons.
