Why am I not able to refactor my topic?

You may need to refactor a cross-referenced topic.

Symptom

I am trying to refactor a topic from Library A to Library B but the Library Dependency Editor does not provide any options.

Problem

A cross-reference needs to be refactored first.

Solution

  1. Right-click the topic that you are trying to refactor. Click View Dependencies.
  2. Check for any cross-referenced topics and make sure that they are refactored first. You may need to check cross-references of cross-references since they are considered a parent topic in DRM.
