Invoking help

The help system is invoked from the editor (or the interactive shell):

Series 60:Click the "yes" (green phone call) button.
UIQ:Press the button.

Alternatively, you can invoke it with Edit→Help.

The help being displayed depends on the code before the cursor position:

Let's assume the following code fragment:

use graph as g

for i=1 to 10 do
  g.t
end

If the cursor is positioned just after "g.t" (i.e. you have just typed it in) and you invoke help, the following page will be displayed:

   
Series 60 sample screen
UIQ sample screen

Note that the first function or constant matching the code before the cursor is selected. In our example, this is graph.text.

You can select another function by navigating up or down.
