The Help System is available from the DICOM Viewer interface. To use the Help System, you need to check the box Help->Assistant for the required languages during the installation of the program.
The Help System language is the same as the one previously set in the DICOM Viewer. If the help files for selected language are missing, or the Help System is not installed, a dialog with a relevant message appears at the Help System startup. In this case, reinstall the DICOM Viewer and check the box Help->Assistant for the required languages during the installation of the program.
The Help System interface language coincides with the language set in the operating system.
The Help System is context-sensitive, it allows to open the sections describing the interface elements, the features that are currently in use. There are three ways to launch the Help System:
From the main menu. Open the Help menu and select the Contents... item. The Help System will open on the page containing information about the active tab.
From a tooltip. Place your cursor on a button to display a tooltip. If this button corresponds to a page of the help system, then there will be a Help link in the tooltip. Click this link to open the Help System page. The tooltips are described in section 22.2.
Using the hotkey. Place your cursor on the required interface object (button, panel, dialog window, etc) and press the hotkey to open the Help System. If this object corresponds to the interface page, the Help System will be opened on this page.
If the Help System is already running, then it opens the required page.
If the selected interface object does not correspond to any page, the Help System will be opened on the last viewed page.
The default Help System skin coincides with the DICOM Viewer skin. To disable the use of the DICOM Viewer skin, uncheck the Use the selected style for Help System box (see Section 16.6).
