Designing soft keys
for context-
sensitive help
In order to establish context sensitivity in combination with soft keys, the
additional HELPID and HELPFILE soft keys must be entered in the
descriptions of the soft keys. Use HELPID to assign to a soft key an ID (= error
number) from the respectively valid range of error numbers. With the
HELPFILE attribute you indicate in which *.chm file the error number can be
found (e.g. OEM1.chm) or via which file the error number is to be searched for
(e.g. main.chm). The assigned error number, in combination with the *.txt and
*.h files, is used to call the appropriate HTML page when the help is called.
If you enter main.chm as the HELPFILE, the entire directory structure with the
HEIDENHAIN help files is shown. If you enter only one file (e.g. OEM1.CHM),
then only the directory of this file is shown. The OEMx.CHM files must be
stored in the TNC:\tncguide\de directory, or in TNC:\tncguide\en, etc. When
the dialog language is switched, the TNC 620 searches the corresponding
language subdirectory when the help system is called.
You can enter HELPFILE for each soft key, or once for all soft keys.
