Help Function

[The Dude]

The little question mark that used to be in the corner of every dialog box of V9 was handy. You know, the one that allowed us to click on fields to get quick descriptions.. Is that going to eventually come back? Going into the full blown help can be a bit of info overload.

"Is that going to eventually come back?"

 

'fraid not -- that decision was mostly Windows-driven. All of those field definitions are still in the help system, though -- click the help button on a dialog, then click the "Field definitions" tab. We purposely separated it out like this so you could get to it as quickly and cleanly as possible, plus it let us provide definitions for new X features like the ribbon bars. Takes you only 3 mouse clicks instead of 2 in V9, but hopefully they'll wind up being more useful.

 

HTH,

If you click on Help for any dialog box

the window that opens up has 2 tabs.

The secomd one is labeled "Field Definitions".

It replaces the the draggable question mark and

I think its a huge improvement. Give it a try !
