Document! X and HelpStudio is extensively customizable, allowing you to adapt the product to your specific preferences.
In addition to a range of application options that can be set in the Options editor (available from the Ribbon Application Menu), Document! X and HelpStudio allows you to customize:
Content Item Types Content Item Types represent the editable aspects of automatically generated documentation. The standard Content Item Types include Summary, Remarks, Examples and Index Keywords. You can add additional Content Item Types to create and manage new types of information. For example you might want to track the author of each documented items documentation - to do this you could create a new Author Content Item Type that would be usable in .NET Xml format source comments, T-SQL source and in Content Files.
Templates Templates are a set of configuration items that collectively determine the structure and style of the generated output produced by Document! X and HelpStudio. Document! X and HelpStudio ships with several different templates but you can create new templates to customize the output to your requirements. Customizations can range from simple StyleSheet changes through to defining completely new page types and Template Properties.
Widgets Widgets are a configurable and extendable library of content helpers with related resources. The standard Widget Types that ship with Document! X and HelpStudio can be customized and additional Widget Types can be defined for use in any project.
