This software provides context-sensitive help that doesn't require help-files.
When it comes to adding context-sensitive help features to your Delphi/ BCB forms, the FormHelp component is an excellent option to consider. Unlike other alternatives, this particular software solution does not require any bulky help files to function effectively. FormHelp is designed to trap context-sensitive help calls and create popup windows using a control's hint instead.
One of the best things about FormHelp is that it allows users to choose whether to interpret the hint string as plain text or rich text. This means you can apply various font styles, colors, and line breaks to your hints, making them more visually appealing and user-friendly. The software also uses the secondary part of a control's hint, separated by a vertical bar '|', meaning you do not have to worry about your hints.
The mouse hints still work with FormHelp, and neither help context numbers nor extra files are required to display context-sensitive help. FormHelp's popup windows have been designed to look and feel like native context help in standard Windows applications, making it accessible to your users who are already familiar with the environment.
In terms of developing context-sensitive help, the component contains a helpful WYSIWYG help designer. By simply dropping FormHelp onto your form and editing the secondary part of the Hint property of any visible control like TButton, TCheckBox or TGroupBox, you can create context-sensitive help guides without hassle. Additionally, the software has an additional button on the form's title bar for even more convenience.
Overall, the FormHelp component is an incredibly useful tool for enabling context-sensitive help features in your Delphi/ BCB forms. Its intuitive design and helpful functionality make it a top choice for many software developers.
