Context Sensitive Help

We have made our roof estimating software very easy to understand and use. We do not feel you will need help, but if you do all of our roof estimating software comes with a fully illustrated and detailed help file. To not have to search thru a lot of non-related topics we provide context sensitive help.

Context sensitive help allows you to go right to to the help topic for the task you are currently working on, by pressing F1 on your keyboard.

Technical description of context sensitive help:
Context-sensitive help is a kind of help that is obtained from a specific point in the state of the software, providing help for the situation that is associated with that state.

Example 1:
If you click on the job cost grid and press F1 a topic specific to the job cost grid will open.

Example 2:
You click on any textbox and press F1 a topic specific to the textbox you have clicked will  open. Or click the roof pitch dropdown and press F1 and help will open to the topic on roof pitch.

Example 3:
Open any other screens eg: address book, email, etc press F1 and a topic specific to that screen will open. You can also get help from any toolbar buttons. Or you can also open the help index or search help from the menus.
