To determine which navigation buttons are displayed in the top navigation pane:
[OmniHelpOptions] ; These settings control what buttons are added to the top nav pane ; UseTopButtons = Yes (default, use buttons) or No (use links instead) UseTopButtons=Yes ; UseStart = Yes (default, provide Start button) or No UseStart=Yes ; UsePrevNext = Yes (default, provide Prev and Next buttons) or No UsePrevNext=Yes ; UseBackForward = Yes (default, provide Back and Fwd buttons) or No UseBackForward=No ; UseHideShow = Yes (default, provide buttons to hide and show ; the left-side nav pane as in MS HTML Help) or No UseHideShow=No
To hide the left-hand navigation pane when OmniHelp starts:
[OmniHelpOptions] ; ShowNavLeft = Yes (default, open with nav pane visible on left) ; or No ShowNavLeft=No
To remove the List button from the left-hand navigation pane:
[OmniHelpOptions] ; UseListButton = Yes (default) or No (remove from Search panel) UseListButton=No
If you include Prev/Next buttons, make sure your TOC does not use mid-topic jumps, or the Prev and Next buttons will not work correctly. TOC-level topics should be in their own files. Clicking a mid-topic jump in the TOC works as expected, but the Prev and Next buttons do not; for example, Prev takes you back to the previous actual file rather than to the previous item listed in the TOC. This can be astonishing to your users.
