Purpose

Specify coordinate position of pop-up help window


Syntax

SET HELPWINDOW AT <expN1>,<expN2> TO <expN3>,<expN4> | DEFAULT


See Also

@...MENU, SET INSTRUCT, SET MEMOWINDOW


Description

The command SET HELPWINDOW specifies the coordinate position of the pop-up help window for @...MENU HELPFILE activation. The first coordinates define the upper left corner of the pop-up window, and the second set defines the lower right corner. If the columns specified for the help window are 0 and 79, then a ’navigation bar’ is displayed at the bottom of the window. A ’navigation bar’ is a highlighted display of available keys that aid the user to get help, page up, page down, or exit the help window. If SET HELPWINDOW AT DEFAULT is used, the screen coordinates are set to 1,0 TO 21,79.


Example

set helpwindow at 3,0 to 10,79
@2,0 menu "Examples";
  command "do examples";
  help "Do examples.  Press ^C for help.";
  helpfile example.hlp
menu quit
