Navigating help topics

You can browse help topics using the Help window or Help view. Which one you use is simply a matter of preference; the view is well integrated with the workbench and is good for quick help lookups. The Help window, on the other hand, has more real estate and may be preferable for longer reading.

Using the Help window

The Help window is a window separate from the workbench used exclusively for browsing, searching, and printing help. To open the window, select Help > Help Contents from the menu. This opens the help window with the Contents view visible, which shows the table of contents.

Help window

To navigate the Help window:

  1. Find the topic you want to read in the table of contents by clicking to expand the subtopics.
  2. La maggior parte degli argomenti fornisce, nella parte finale, un elenco di collegamenti ad argomenti correlati. Per ottenere maggiori informazioni seguire questi collegamenti.
  3. Use the Go back Go Back and Go forward Go Forward buttons to navigate back and forth. These behave the same way as in Web browsers.

Ingrandimento delle viste della guida

The different parts (views) of the Help window can be maximized to take up the entire window. To maximize a frame, click the Maximize button Maximize button in the toolbar, or double click on the view's title header. To return the view to its original size, click the Restore button Restore button or double click the title header again.

Printing help

To print a topic from the Help window:

  1. Selezionare l'argomento nel pannello di navigazione.
  2. Click the Print button Print button in the Help toolbar.
  3. Selezionare le impostazioni di stampa desiderate e fare clic su Stampa.

Using the Help view

The Help view provides the same features as the Help window (with the exception of printing), but in the same window as the workbench instead of a separate one. To open the Help view, select Help > Dynamic Help from the main menu. This will open the Related topics page.

Help view

To navigate the Help view:

  1. Switch to the Go back All topics page using the link at the bottom.
  2. Find the topic you want to read in the table of contents by clicking to expand the subtopics.
  3. La maggior parte degli argomenti fornisce, nella parte finale, un elenco di collegamenti ad argomenti correlati. Per ottenere maggiori informazioni seguire questi collegamenti.
  4. Use the Go back Go Back and Go forward Go Forward buttons to navigate back and forth. These behave the same way as in Web browsers.
