Select the "Help on
item..." option in the Help menu. After
choosing this option the mouse's cursor changes shape; to obtain specific information on
an item, click on the corresponding XMayday interface zone. For example, to learn the
function of a particular button on the current horizontal toolbar, choose "Help /
Help on item...", then click on the button in question.
This type of help is also available by simultaneously pressing the Control and F1
keys. This second method can be used to display information on interface elements in the
dialog boxes.
Select an interface element and press the F1 key. An interface element is
selected when a thin black line is visible surrounding the element.
The selection
method 'Help on item' is simpler and more efficient than other methods.
