We are glad to announce two updates for both, HelpXplain and Help+Manual. HelpXplain has full audio support and Help+Manual needs a few changes to support this, too.
HelpXplain 1.1.0
- HelpXplain 1.1.0 has full audio support! Audios in Xplains work in the regular HTML output, in Help+Manual’s Webhelp, eWriter eBooks and in HTML Help (.chm) files. All player skins include audio controls.Check out the “Fun with audios” demo here:

Other changes and bug fixes in version 1.1.0:
- Publish deletes all files in data folder.
- Original JPEG/PNG images were not exported as original but recreated, sometimes resulting in larger image files
- Several undo/redo bugs fixed
- Scrolling of slide list after slide deletion improved
- When pasting slides, the pasted slides are inserted at the current position in the slide list, not at the end
- File drag & drop on welcome page implemented
- PDF export did not support Unicode file names
Help+Manual 7.5.3
Changes in Help+Manual:
- Insert HelpXplain dialog: defaults for Xplains changed to lightbox mode (this is really important for Xplains with audio support)
- All CHM skins have been changed to elevate the internal rendering engine to Internet Explorer 11 instead of 10 (this is important for Xplains with audio support to make the audio work inside CHM files)
- Publishing tasks: include comments in PDF was not working
