Context Sensitive Help

There are two simple ways of providing context sensitive help to users of Speck applications, both of which are done when creating content types.

  1. The hint attrtibute of the cf_spProperty tag can be used to describe a property. If you add a value for this attribute, a help icon will appear beside the caption on the edit content form. When a user rolls the mouse over the icon, the hint text appears.
  2. If a help method is added when creating a content type, a help link will appear above the edit content form. When a user clicks on the link, the method is called and the resulting output displayed.
