Reuse List Items

In technical publications, it is quite common to have list items and steps that are repeated in various different topics. For example, if you are documenting software, it is likely that you will use a 'Save' step in lots of different procedures.

In Paligo, there are two different ways to reuse steps. You can use:

  • The reuse text feature for single list items or steps

  • An informal topic to reuse a sequence of list items or steps.

Note

If you want to reuse an entire list or procedure, add the list/procedure to an informal topic. You can then add the informal topic to other topics where appropriate.

To find out how to reuse items in lists, see the following sections:
