Overview

Selecting this item pops up the Help window. It provides information on how to use the MeshTV help system.

Help window

This window provides help for items (buttons, text fields, labels, radio buttons, etc.) in MeshTV. To access the window, simply position the cursor over an item and press the right mouse button. A relevant help message will display to the text area of this window.

Help window shows an example of the Help window. This particular example would appear when you select On help... from the Help menu item in the MeshTV Main window. Note that the appearance of your window might differ slightly from the one shown here.

To get help on a particular item in any window in the MeshTV GUI, place the cursor over the item (button, text field, label, radio button, etc.) and press the right mouse button. The Help window will pop up, displaying any help available for that particular item.

At the bottom of the Help window, there is a place for user notes. You can enter your own notes there for future reference. They will appear the next time you request help on that item. User help is saved automatically.

Help on

The text below Help on: shows the name of the item (button, text field, label, etc.) you selected for help. It helps you make sure you're getting information on the item you want and not for some other item.

Help text

Help information on the requested item (button, text field, label, etc.) displays here. To request information, place the cursor on the item for which you want help and right click.

User notes

This text area allows you to type your own help notes for an item. For example, if you request help on the Raster postscript printer type, you can include your own notes, which might detail the name of the printer you prefer. These notes are saved as you type them, and the next time you request help on the Raster postscript item, your notes will appear in this text area.

Dismiss button

When you wish to close a window, press the Dismiss button.
