1Side and Top Navigation—as well as skinless outputs—do not use frames, like other outputs do. Therefore, you must use a topic toolbar if you want to display toolbar buttons.

2In an HTML5 Tripane skin, you can configure a web toolbar by using the Toolbar tab.

3Although Pulse is supported in WebHelp and WebHelp Plus targets, you can add Pulse-related buttons (e.g., Edit User Profile, Topic Ratings) only in a WebHelp toolbar. You cannot add them in a topic toolbar.

 

Note Although you can insert Topic Toolbar proxies in most of the online outputs, choosing the buttons for the toolbar can be done in the skin for only some outputs. For Microsoft HTML Help output, you can select buttons in the Topic Toolbar proxy only.
