Subject:Hotspot hyperlinks in online help From:Phil Hellerman <Phil -dot- Hellerman -at- MCI -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 30 Sep 1996 16:22:10 -0500
With the advent of Windows '95 style help (and its what's this
capability), I find the need to include screen capture hotspots is no
longer necessary.
The user simply needs to position the cursor on a field, press the right
mouse button or ? then the field, and receives a pop-up or help page
(however you designed it).
