Root Offset Property Editor

See Also

Use the Root Offset Property Editor to specify the directory that contains the Javadoc top-level directory in a JAR or zip Javadoc library. To open this property editor, choose Tools and choose Javadoc Manager, then click the the ellipsis (...) button in the Javadoc library's Root Directory property.

The Javadoc top-level directory contains the index.html file, a directory called index-files that contains multiple index files, or both. When your Javadoc files are in a JAR or zip file, the directory that contains the Javadoc top-level directory is sometimes buried in the file's hierarchy. In this case, the IDE cannot correctly search for and display Javadoc files unless the Root Offset property is set to the directory that contains the Javadoc top-level directory.
