Help On

Menu: Help > Help On

Default Shortcut Key: Shift+F1

The Help On command is used to activate a special mode in which the mouse cursor is changed to a help icon with an arrow cursor.  In this mode the mouse is relieved of its conventional duties, and Help information will be displayed for the next object or menu item clicked upon.

The mouse arrow cursor will change to a 'no' cursor when atop an item for which help is not available, or not applicable.
