\section{\class{wxContextHelp}}\label{wxcontexthelp} This class changes the cursor to a query and puts the application into a 'context-sensitive help mode'. When the user left-clicks on a window within the specified window, a wxEVT\_HELP event is sent to that control, and the application may respond to it by popping up some help. For example: \begin{verbatim} wxContextHelp contextHelp(myWindow); \end{verbatim} There are a couple of ways to invoke this behaviour implicitly: \begin{itemize} \item Use the wxDIALOG\_EX\_CONTEXTHELP style for a dialog (Windows only). This will put a question mark in the titlebar, and Windows will put the application into context-sensitive help mode automatically, with further programming. \item Create a \helpref{wxContextHelpButton}{wxcontexthelpbutton}, whose predefined behaviour is to create a context help object. Normally you will write your application so that this button is only added to a dialog for non-Windows platforms (use wxDIALOG\_EX\_CONTEXTHELP on Windows). \end{itemize} Note that on Mac OS X, the cursor does not change when in context-sensitive help mode. \wxheading{Derived from} \helpref{wxObject}{wxobject} \wxheading{Include files} \wxheading{See also} \helpref{wxHelpEvent}{wxhelpevent}, \helpref{wxHelpController}{wxhelpcontroller}, \helpref{wxContextHelpButton}{wxcontexthelpbutton} \latexignore{\rtfignore{\wxheading{Members}}} \membersection{wxContextHelp::wxContextHelp}\label{wxcontexthelpctor} \func{}{wxContextHelp}{\param{wxWindow*}{ window = NULL}, \param{bool}{ doNow = true}} Constructs a context help object, calling \helpref{BeginContextHelp}{wxcontexthelpbegincontexthelp} if\rtfsp {\it doNow} is true (the default). If {\it window} is NULL, the top window is used. \membersection{wxContextHelp::\destruct{wxContextHelp}}\label{wxcontexthelpdtor} \func{}{\destruct{wxContextHelp}}{\void} Destroys the context help object. \membersection{wxContextHelp::BeginContextHelp}\label{wxcontexthelpbegincontexthelp} \func{bool}{BeginContextHelp}{\param{wxWindow*}{ window = NULL}} Puts the application into context-sensitive help mode. {\it window} is the window which will be used to catch events; if NULL, the top window will be used. Returns true if the application was successfully put into context-sensitive help mode. This function only returns when the event loop has finished. \membersection{wxContextHelp::EndContextHelp}\label{wxcontexthelpendcontexthelp} \func{bool}{EndContextHelp}{\void} Ends context-sensitive help mode. Not normally called by the application. \section{\class{wxContextHelpButton}}\label{wxcontexthelpbutton} Instances of this class may be used to add a question mark button that when pressed, puts the application into context-help mode. It does this by creating a \helpref{wxContextHelp}{wxcontexthelp} object which itself generates a wxEVT\_HELP event when the user clicks on a window. On Windows, you may add a question-mark icon to a dialog by use of the wxDIALOG\_EX\_CONTEXTHELP extra style, but on other platforms you will have to add a button explicitly, usually next to OK, Cancel or similar buttons. \wxheading{Derived from} \helpref{wxBitmapButton}{wxbitmapbutton}\\ \helpref{wxButton}{wxbutton}\\ \helpref{wxControl}{wxcontrol}\\ \helpref{wxWindow}{wxwindow}\\ \helpref{wxEvtHandler}{wxevthandler}\\ \helpref{wxObject}{wxobject} \wxheading{Include files} \wxheading{See also} \helpref{wxBitmapButton}{wxbitmapbutton}, \helpref{wxContextHelp}{wxcontexthelp} \latexignore{\rtfignore{\wxheading{Members}}} \membersection{wxContextHelpButton::wxContextHelpButton}\label{wxcontexthelpbuttonconstr} \func{}{wxContextHelpButton}{\void} Default constructor. \func{}{wxContextHelpButton}{ \param{wxWindow* }{parent}, \param{wxWindowID }{id = wxID\_CONTEXT\_HELP}, \param{const wxPoint\& }{pos = wxDefaultPosition}, \param{const wxSize\& }{size = wxDefaultSize}, \param{long }{style = wxBU\_AUTODRAW}} Constructor, creating and showing a context help button. \wxheading{Parameters} \docparam{parent}{Parent window. Must not be NULL.} \docparam{id}{Button identifier. Defaults to wxID\_CONTEXT\_HELP.} \docparam{pos}{Button position.} \docparam{size}{Button size. If the default size (-1, -1) is specified then the button is sized appropriately for the question mark bitmap.} \docparam{style}{Window style.} \wxheading{Remarks} Normally you need pass only the parent window to the constructor, and use the defaults for the remaining parameters.
