About this task
Once set up, anyone who uses the profile
and elements with the New Term stereotype you set up can use the F1 key
to open the custom help file when and where it is possible. When you
press F1, IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® checks
if there is a custom help file for the New Term stereotype associate
with the element.
- If yes, the product searches for the resource ID
in your help map file and it opens the custom help file.
- If no, the product opens its main help file.
Note: The GUI element must be applicable to the
New Term stereotype for the
Rational Rhapsody profile
for your custom help file to work.
For
example, if the
Auto2009 profile has a New Term stereotype
called
Stereotype_Auto2009 and you add an element with this
stereotype to a package called
Default, when you open the Features
window for one of these stereotypes (for example,
stereotype_auto2009_0)
and then you press
F1, your custom help opens (assuming that
you added the resource IDs for the tabs on this window to your help
map file).
However, when you open the Features
window for the package and you press
F1, you open the main
Rational Rhapsody help
file because this package is not associated with the New Term stereotype
call
Stereotype_Auto2009.
