Using help

The text hint of all GEO programs is displayed in standard Windows EXPLORER viewer. The help dialogue window can be launched either through the program menu (items "Help", "Content") or using the Fn button "F1" anywhere in the program.
Some dialogue windows (e.g., "Add soil") allow for opening the corresponding chapter of the help by pressing the help button "".

The dialogue window contains:

  • Bar with basic tool buttons. The "Hide (Show)" button hides (shows) tree with a list help topics. The ("Back/Forward") buttons allow for listing pages, which have been already displayed. The "Print" button opens the printing dialogue window and the "Options" buttons opens the menu to set the EXPLORER window properties.
  • Bar containing the tab sheet "Content" (shows tree with individual topics), tab sheets "Index" and "Search".
  • "Tree" with a list hint topics – individual items in the tree are opened/closed by clicking the symbols "+"/"-" in front of the name.
  • Window for displaying the help itself – the window header contains currently shown items and the "Back/Forward" buttons that function in the same way as already described buttons on tool bar.

The text of each help may further contain cross references to other items. The text of these references is underlined highlighted in blue color.
