### 17.7 Configuring WinHelp topics

To produce the organization and navigation features of WinHelp, you assign topic and hotspot properties to paragraph, character, and cross-reference formats assigned to DITA elements. The first property assigned to each format identifies the role that all text in that format will play in the Help system.
