<hidden> element in helpData not working [message #1663162]

Hi,
I use Oxygen XML 14.2 to build eclipse transformation output. And the TOC books are defined as toc ids in helpData.xml.

I wanted to hide some books (topics or plugins) from being displayed on the help TOC page. I used <hidden> element in my helpData.xml. In spite of that, those books do appear on TOC.

Could you please let me know how to fix this?

Thank you
anu

If you want to exclude topics or maps from a book, you can add toc="no" to the topicref, like this:

<topicref format="ditamap" href="book.ditamap" toc="no"/>

I believe these will still show up in search.

I think I was not clear in my query.
I want to hide some books (plugins), not topics within a book, from the list of books that appears on the left pane of the eclipse help system.
I came to know that I could use <hidden> inside which I could specify tocids in helpData.xml to hide relevant books. I tried that, but its not working. So I would like to know if I need to specify anything else in any other file.

Thank you
anu
