Use underscores In filenames: If this option is enabled, whenever you use a space when naming a file, then the space gets converted to an underscore in the filename.

Move deleted files to recycle bin: If this option is enabled, then any deleted file is moved to the recycle bin. On macOS, the deleted file is moved to the Trash.

Create cross-reference on dropping any topic in the editor: If you drag any topic from Contents or TOC panel and drop in the editor, then a hyperlink is created to that topic. If this option is enabled, then a cross reference is created instead of a hyperlink.

Enable auto save: When enabled, a topic gets saves automatically after a specified interval (in seconds).

Default Project Location: By default, the project location is set to “Documents\My RoboHelp Projects” folder. Click the browse icon and select any location on your system as your preferred location to save projects. Select Yes in the pop-up to change the default location permanently. Changing default location also changes the output location. You can also change the default project location while creating a new project.

Run spell checking on opening a topic: Working with the spell check option is a good practice to ensure high quality. When this option is enabled, the spell check is run when any topic is opened in the editor.

User Dictionary: Adding a word to your dictionary makes the word available for spelling checks across the projects. Adding new words enables RoboHelp to recognize new words as correctly spelled words. At any time, you can add or delete new words.

Ignored Words: The Ignored Words list is specific to the application and is global. Add words, which are then never presented as misspelled words, useful for excluding specific words such as names, abbreviations, etc.
