17.8.2 Creating
hotspots for jumps and pop-ups in WinHelp
To create a hotspot, in DITA XML specify
a dedicated @outputclass
for either of the following:
- the
text of a cross reference
- text
that contains a hypertext link.
Note: If hotspot
text is followed immediately by a space, when your WinHelp project is
compiled the space disappears, even though it is present in the RTF output.
The workaround is to make the space a hard space in DITA XML.
