Creating the index keywords
Overview
The index keywords allow the user to easily find a help page. Each help page can be associated with one or more keywords and each keyword can be associated with one or more pages.
How to proceed?

Creating an index keyword (without associating it with a page)

To create an index keyword:
  1. Display the list of index keywords in the help editor ("Index" tab ).
  2. In the list of keywords, select "New keyword" from the popup menu. The "New index entry" words appear in edit.
  3. Enter the keyword and validate.
Remarks: If the keyword must be a "sub-keyword", all you have to do is Drag and Drop the keyword toward the main keyword.
