18.8.2 Jumping from a topic to a secondary window

You can use either a character format or a paragraph format to create a hotspot for a jump from a topic to a secondary window. Assign the window name to the hotspot format:

[SecWindows]
; doc format = name of secondary window to use for jumps from
;  within the span marked by this format (same as WinHelp usage)
HotspotFmt=wndwname

If more than one CHM file is involved in a jump, you must also specify how those files are mapped; see §18.14.1 Interlinking multiple CHM files.
