RE: [platform-ua-dev] Open links from F1 view in Help Browser window byd

[Chris Goldthorpe <cgold@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe the links are supposed to
always open in the same window, the help dialog tray, I'm not sure why
it would be opening i n a new window. If you look at the help preferences
page there are a couple of options which affect this, one will cause an
infopop to be shown rather than the help tray when you press the (?) on
a dialog. The other option forces help view links to be opened in an editor,
Try these and see if they help you. There is a product level customization
which controls this, look for dialog_infopop on http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/ua_help_setup_preferences.htm

Hello,
 
I would like to clarify that the
links from the context help are opening in the same "docked"
help view and not in the Help Browser.
How can I configure this? Anyone?
 
Regards,
Mladen

Subject: [platform-ua-dev] Open links from F1 view in Help Browser
window bydefault ?

Hello,
 
I have the following issue with help system.
 
When using Eclipse 3.2.x, when the user press
F1 for a Wizard the help system opens help content in a joined container.
(like cheatsheets). Then if the user presses a link there to open a topic
of the help I have seen two behaviors: 
 
(1) the link opens in the Help Browser with
navigation tree on the left and search box etc.
(2) the link opens in same narrow container.
 
I want always to open in help browser (1)
window as the content of the help does not appear well and is not designed
for narrow window size. 
How can I control this? Where are defined
the settings of the help system? 
 
Regards,
Mladen
